Sleep Needs and Waking Windows by Age
Not sure if your child is overtired, undertired, or somewhere in between? This simple, science-informed chart shows typical awake windows, nap patterns, and night-time sleep needs by age. It’s designed to help you make sense of your child’s sleep without rigid rules or pressure — just a helpful starting point.
Before Bed Activities
Pre-bed routines work because they build predictable cues for sleep. Repeating the same or similar activities each night helps children learn what comes next, making bedtime more settled and less stressful for everyone.
Sleep Diary
A sleep diary helps you spot patterns in your child’s sleep that are easy to miss day-to-day. Tracking sleep for a few days can bring clarity to bedtimes, night waking, and naps, making it easier to know what to tweak.
