In order to wean your own child from sleeping in bed with parents, you need to show a lot of patience and resourcefulness. Your actions in relation to the child should be consistent and systematic, because the learning process can be very long, up to several months. In order to move your baby to another crib in a less problematic way for both you and him, it is worth using a few tips.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose the right time for your child to move. The best age is three years old.
Step 2
Explain your actions to the child, talk to him. Do not underestimate your child or think that he is not able to perceive this information. Explain to him that the time has come when he needs to sleep separately.
Step 3
Make your child's sleeping place the most comfortable, beautiful, cozy and safe.
Step 4
Let the child go to bed with his favorite toy or, if there is none, then with a toy specially purchased for this, which would protect his sleep.
Step 5
Tell him a story before bed or sing a song so that the child can sleep peacefully. But there is no need to go in this matter to the victorious, that is, until the moment when the child falls asleep, otherwise it will become a kind of "drug" for him.
Step 6
Leave the night light and the door ajar on at night.
Step 7
Do not undermine the child's trust and do not give birth to fears of the dark, monsters and loneliness in his head.
