Getting 2/3yr old to stay in bed all night

DS is 2yr old (almost 3). He goes to bed okay. We read a story, have a cuddle and usually can walk out while he falls asleep on his own.

But for the past month or so wakes 2-4 times a night and it is killing me.

Typically he just gets up and stands silently at his door. But when he go to him and get him back in bed, that's when he cries and wants us to lay down with him and goes on for 1-2hrs.

Has anyone tried a reward chart at this age? I'm not sure he'd "get it" enough to motivate him yet.

Tempted to try just no going to him if he's silent and see if he eventually goes back to his bed on his own.

Open to any suggestions
