I get mine to sleep at 1 ish for about an hour but just talking to a friend she said her dd is a nightmare at bedtime if she sleeps that late. What time do your early 2s sleep?

Dd sleeps 1130-1330

my ds had given his nap up by then. Prior to that he went to sleep after lunch so probably about 12.30ish.

11.30 -12.30

12:30/1pm - 2:45pm in school time. Simialr, but slightly more flexible in holidays.

ds is 2.2 at nursery he naps around 12:45 for an hour
at home on a weekend it tends to be later (a pattern over the last couple of months) so anywhere between 1-3 for around 2 hours (he'd sleep longer if we'd let him) It doesn't affect his night time sleep - other than I might put him down at 8 rather than 7 if he didn't get up til 4.30 (this is rare). He will still mostly do 12 hours at night.

Up until recently it was 10-30-12:30. But now he is trying to survive without it, and it's not going so well for him so it tends to be around 3.

About 12-2.

i have two 2 year old mindees - one will sleep 2 hours roughly 1-3pm and afaik it doesn't effect her night time sleep, the other will sleep maybe an hour max from around 1-2pm. i would struggle to put mine down much before 1 as we are so busy in the mornings and nearly always out.
