Help me get my 10 year old to sleep.

10yo ds goes to sleep ok, but then has nights where like tonight has been wandering round since 11pm unsettled. When chatting to him it appears he is worried about being burgled or something happening. This has happened since moving house 2 months ago. I have tried night lights, leaving lights on. Any other ideas.

I had a phase like this when I was about ten and slept on the floor in my mums room for a few weeks.

Poor kid. Can you go around the house with him, letting him check that all the windows and doors are locked?

Poor thing tbh I'd probably let him sleep with me for a bit to reassure him until he feels safe in the new house.
