The Ultimate Guide to Sleep-Training Your Toddler

Kids are always at their best when they have positive and healthy bedtime routines. Sleep training your toddler at a tender age is important as good quality sleep is crucial for their physical, mental, and emotional growth. This is why setting up a soothing bedtime routine — like nighttime cuddles, a relaxing bath, reading, or listening to calming music — can help toddlers fall asleep more easily and solve their sleep problems. Every baby is unique in what they find relaxing, so helping them find their way to good quality sleep is key to their health and happiness.

Cuddle-friendly night lights to chase away the dark.

A soft, glowing, and cuddly friend is the perfect companion during your toddler's bedtime routine, helping them feel safe and secure as they drift off to sleep. These huggable night lights gently ease their fears of the dark, providing a warm sense of comfort as they wind down for the night. Adding a soothing night light in the baby's room, along with reading their favourite fairy tale, creates a peaceful atmosphere that helps your toddler sleep better.

Comfortable cots for a restful sleep.

A comfortable cot is important in helping babies sleep soundly. As they grow into toddlers, moving into their own sleeping space is a big milestone, but a cosy, safe, and snug cot can quickly become their favourite place to rest. Choosing soft, comfy bedding and sticking to a consistent sleep routine makes the transition smoother, helping your baby feel secure and at home in their new sleeping space.

Calming and colourful nursery mobiles.

As your baby drifts off to sleep, a colourful, moving mobile hanging above the cot can be a comforting and familiar sight. The gentle swaying and soft patterns create a relaxing atmosphere, and mobiles with soothing music or nature sounds provide a bonus, serving as a signal to help train your toddler's brain to enter sleep mode. When they wake up, these nursery toys inspire a touch of fun and curiosity, easing them into the day’s adventures.

A cosy towel for a snug, sleepy baby.

Staying warm and bundled up after a bedtime bath can help them sleep better, making your baby feel extra cosy and ready for slumber. Wrapping them in a soft, hooded towel made from 100% cotton not only keeps them snug but also adds a comforting touch as they wind down. Creating a soothing environment with sleep aids, such as a fluffy and cosy towel, can make all the difference in helping them sleep better.

Sleep-friendly space with blackout blinds.

One common sleep problem for babies is unwanted light sources from the streets, making blackout blinds essential in the baby’s room. By blocking out excessive light, they help regulate the baby's sleep schedule, creating a dark, cool environment that signals to their body it’s time to rest. This simple addition to their bedtime routine can help babies fall asleep faster and stay in a deep, restful sleep throughout the night.
