Hi any advice would be appreciated. I have a little one who is 2 years old who cant seem to stay asleep of a night. He goes to bed fine then come 1 in the morning he is wide awake til Bout 6am. He also will not nap in the day unless in the car. He has soo much energy I dont understand how he isn't wearing himself out. Any tips!!!

Hey I have a similar problem, 20 month old. Normally goes to bed happily round 7pm. She wakes between 10-11 and is bouncing round til 2am most nights. She only has one nap a day, usually at lunch time for 1hr to 1hr 30. Nothing makes any difference, I’ve tried everything 🤦🏻‍♀️. I’m watching with interest to see if you get any replies. My earlier post didn’t 😢. You are not alone, I’m hoping she will grow out of it one day.... however we’ve had terrible sleep since she was 9 months old. It’s really putting me off having anymore children x

At 2 he probably doesn’t need a nap. I would try dropping the nap to see if it improves the evenings.
