Step 1
Create all the conditions for healthy sleep. Ventilate the room as fresh air is essential for a good rest. Protect your baby from noise. If you put your child to bed, talk more quietly, turn down the TV volume, and avoid loud or harsh sounds. Block the windows with curtains so that the bright light of the lanterns does not penetrate the nursery and does not disturb the baby's sleep. Prepare your baby's crib in advance. Adjust the diaper and pillow, remove any excess. If the baby prefers to sleep with toys, then leave it alone. But it must be completely safe: no small parts, no sharp parts and no long nap.
Step 2
To prevent the baby from waking up, observe the daily regimen. It is necessary to wake up and put the child to bed at the same time. Then the body will get used to it and will tune in to rest at the right time. Try to make your child tired during the day. Then by evening he will want to sleep anyway. But it is very important that the baby does not overwork and does not get excited in the evening. Otherwise, the baby, due to excessive fatigue, will be capricious and will not be able to fall asleep and sleep soundly. So plan for quieter games and activities for the afternoon. In the first half, let your child have some fun and throw out their energy.
Step 3
A child may feel unwell about a stressful family environment. So if you want your child to sleep well, avoid quarrels and scandals. The kid may not understand the words, but he perfectly feels the intonation and mood of dad and mom. Therefore, it is better to find out the relationship not with the child and calmly, without screaming and negative emotions.
Step 4
A child's poor sleep is often associated with anxiety. Such anxiety can be triggered by feelings of insecurity or fear. Be sure to stay with your child before going to bed, talk to him, hug him and kiss him. The child will feel your warmth and calm down. You can give your baby a favorite toy, with it he will also be able to feel protected. If some fears interfere with the baby's sleep, then be sure to find out what exactly the baby is afraid of. Explain that everything is fine, reassure the child. If he is afraid of the dark, then turn on the night light. In a weak light, the baby will sleep better.
