Little Bodies, Big Sleep Needs
Professional sleep education for daycare providers, preschool teachers, childcare directors, and early-childhood staff.
About this program
Early-childhood professionals manage sleep every day: nap schedules, room environments, children who will not settle, and families asking for guidance. Most training programs cover it briefly, if at all.
This program gives staff a working understanding of early-childhood sleep so they can structure the day well and speak confidently with families.
What it covers
- Sleep and nap needs across the early-childhood years
- Designing nap routines and environments that work in a group setting
- Children who resist settling, and what usually helps
- How the daytime schedule affects nights at home, and the reverse
- Talking with families about sleep without giving clinical advice
- Recognizing when a child should be referred for evaluation
