Everyone faces getting their children to sleep through the night. Infants, toddlers, or even older children that won't sleep through the night the process is the same. Here are some tips.

The first place to start is the time they wake up. Establish what time you want them to wake up in the morning. You will need to wake them up at the same time every morning, even on Saturdays, at least for a few weeks until the pattern is established. This may seem hard on you now, but the reward is so great. Watch for the "sleepy" signs before the child becomes irritable. Rubbing the eyes, slowing down in activity, etc. You want to lay them down before they fall asleep, and allow them to fall asleep on their own. We all experience a sleep - Wake cycle. The most common reason for a child waking up in the middle of the night is that they do not know how to roll over and put themselves back to sleep. By laying them down while they are still awake, not rocking them or feeding them to sleep, allows them to learn this process.
