Do toddler daycare naps ruin bedtime in your home?

Perhaps your toddler has stopped napping on the weekends and goes to bed at night pretty well. But your child is napping at daycare during the weekdays, and suddenly, bedtime has become a disaster!

Your sleep training needs a reboot.

You can’t get your toddler down until 9 p.m. or later, and sleep training at bedtime is a battle every night.

You’re not alone.

When kids transition away from taking naps, it feels like it throws their whole sleep schedule out of whack. It can be the cause of several toddler sleep problems.

I hear this complaint from families all the time. When their child naps at daycare during the week, bedtime is impossible. But on the weekend, with no nap, sleep training, and bedtime, is much easier.

The challenge is: many daycares are required by state laws or licensing to offer a nap, so it can leave parents in a bit of a pickle.

But there are ways around this.

Listen on for tips to help your toddler become an awesome little sleeper.

When Daylight Savings Time ends and the clock “falls back,” it basically shoves an extra hour into our lives.

When I was 20, I was like 💃 “Sweet! A super long Saturday night out!”

But once I had kids, I was like “kill me now!” 🤯

Kids’ bodies are sensitive and absorbing that extra hour can throw off even the best sleeper. And figuring out how to adjust kids’ sleep schedules to Daylight Savings.

Let me teach you a step-by-step method to survive the time change with everyone’s sleep intact.

Let's say that your 2-year-old climbed out of the crib last night. YIKES!

You’ve been dreading this day for a LONG time. You might think “Okay, it's time to move him to a toddler bed”

NOT SO FAST!

If you can keep your adventurous toddler SAFELY in the crib a little longer, you should do it. But we have to make sure they can’t climb out.

The freedom of the open toddler bed can be too much for young kids to handle.

Switching kids out of the crib too early can cause lots of sleep issues– like refusing to stay put at bedtime, suddenly needing you to stay in the room with them or waking up overnight. Or if you’re already having sleep issues with your crib-sleeper, the switch to the toddler bed will just intensify issues you’re already experiencing.

Kids who don’t sleep well in the crib, will sleep even worse in a bed.

So, if you can SAFELY keep your child in the crib without climbing out, do it.
