Sleep Like the Pros™: Better Sleep for School-Age Kids

Interactive, evidence-informed sleep education for children ages 5–7, families and early elementary school communities.

About this program

School-age sleep is shaped by early start times, homework, activities, screens, and a body clock that shifts later as children grow. Most families are not short on advice. They are short on a clear picture of what is actually driving the difficulty in their own home.

This program explains what school-age children need, why bedtimes so often slide, and which changes tend to matter most, in language parents and school communities can use the same week.

Sleep Like the Pros™ is an educational program from Sleep & Change Specialists.

Interactive sleep education for ages 3–5 and 5–7, alongside parent sessions and educator professional development.

What it covers

  • How much sleep school-age children actually need, and how to tell when they are short
  • Why bedtime resistance and late nights build up during the school year
  • Start times, homework, activities, and the trade-offs families are really making
  • Screens, light, and evening routines without unrealistic rules
  • How to shift a schedule gradually rather than all at once
  • Signs a sleep problem deserves a clinical evaluation
