Solve your childs sleep problems is really not an easy task
Here are some of the tips I would try.
1. Understand your child’s sleeping pattern. Sometimes, children just cannot have afternoon naps. While others need one to have a better night’s sleep.
2. Sometimes, more is OK. Like the first point, don’t be too afraid of letting your child have a nap in the afternoon. Being too tired may hamper a good night’s sleep.
3. Is your child sensitive to any kinds of food that would make his stomach ache?, bloated, give him too much energy ( chocolates are a big nono)
4. Music Helps. Please be sensible, no pop or rock music, this may further excite the child
5. Do not over-excite the child. Laughing or crying too much can lead to nightmare. Their nightmare IS OUR NIGHTMARE.
6. Drink a cup of hot milk. This helps soothes her.
7. Aromatic Oils do help as well. Especially the ones for calming the nerves and relaxing. You could either put some on their temple or burn some in their room.
8. Make sure room is at a comfortable temperature. Too cold or hot is bad
9. Make sure room is ventilated.
