Hi all,

I need help with getting my 3 year old to sleep at night.

It's such a battle every night and I just dread bedtime.

It's taken an hour to get her to sleep tonight and it's just so stressful.

I know she's exhausted but she will fight till the bitter end!

Any tips would be amazing.

Thanks

Consistency.
Telling her it's fine she is not asleep but she has to lie down and rest her body.
A strip of red lighting, a small tipple of milk.
Go to sleep at the same time as her for a week or two; the whole house being dark, quiet and sleepy.
