I think 22-month-old DD is heading towards dropping her nap and I'm not sure how to handle the transition. Over the past couple of weeks, she won't sleep when put down in her cot at 1pm, 2pm or even 3, despite looking tired and having previously slept for 1-2 hrs early afternoon. This mainly happens at nursery as she's there 4 days a week. Today she had 40 mins from 4pm, but then had to be woken to go home. She's strung out and crazy from pickup to bedtime, which I've brought forward to 6-6.30ish. Is there anything I can do to encourage her to nap earlier or is there some other way of handling the late afternoon horribles?
