Restless 5yr old at night

Just wondering if anyone else’s child suffers being really restless in their sleep? My daughter turned 5 in September, she has a good bedtime routine and falls asleep quite easily. The issue is when she’s actually asleep, I’m not sure if she’s fully asleep? But she is always moving, tossing, turning and waking up throughout the night. She’s in full time reception class and I take her out to the park to run off excess energy daily etc. Does anyone have any experience of this and what I can do to try and help her rest properly? I’ve got 3 other children but none of them ever had this issue, thanks :)

Is she tired in the day? Some people are just wriggly while they sleep! My husband has "running" dreams - i know when he's having one because he kicks the covers all the way off the bottom of the bed.

Yeah she’s always tired throughout the day but also very hyper? Makes no sense I know, but it makes me think she’s not sleeping properly, coupled with the fact she wakes quite a few times as well.
