1 year old waking at 3-4 am

Hi, my 1 year old has never slept well, it is only the last month or so that he hasn't been waking constantly throughout the night. We have weaned him off of all night feeds and he has started to sleep through or only wake once in the night which is amazing however he always wakes between 3-4 am (and sometimes earlier). He is obviously still tired and is very grumpy but will not go back to sleep . As I work he usually has a 15-20 min nap in the car on the way to nursery at 7.10ish and then has an afternoon nap at 12 (this ranges from 1 hr 30- 3 hrs). He is usually asleep for the night at 6.30-7 ish. We are really desperate for any advice as it has taken us such a long time to get him to where he is now and are both really struggling with the early mornings when we are working. Thank you

Any of these might work: more food during the day, is he warm enough, does his nap need cutting short at 2 hours, or can you put him to bed later so he wakes up later. My DS goes to bed later so he’s ready to wake up for the day from a more manageable 5.30 am as I can’t cope with 2 or 3 am starts.
