Help- tips for weaning clingy breastfed 1yr old

Hi

My DD has just turned 1 and I’m about to embark on weaning her from the boob. She’s a bottle refuser, well she’ll take a bottle from me occasionally….
She still wakes 2-3 times in the night for milks. Shortish feeds 5 mins.
She screams if I don’t feed her and with a 4 year old in the other room I normally cave.

I’ve weaned one of the day feeds and replaced with snacks but I can tell she’d rather have boob as gets winey.

Anyways I’m rambling..
she’s very clingy, always wants me, I’ve pretty much always put her to bed and dealt with her in the night.

Any tips for getting her weaned .. especially tips for the night.

I won’t go cold turkey .. clearly that approach wouldn’t work for me or DD.
But any shared experiences or tips would be grateful
Thanks
