Q&A: September 2026

In this episode, I'm answering YOUR questions! Here's what we're walking through: How do we adjust our sons' sleep schedule (ages 9 and 6.5)? We want them to go to bed later at night and wake up later in the morning. We've pushed bedtime later, but they're now waking up even earlier in the morning. Is my toddler (2 years 7 months) ready to drop her nap or should we push bedtime back later? Should we give our 2.5-year-old a toddler clock or is he okay without it? Sometimes he wakes up in the morning and wants out of his crib right away, whereas other mornings he's content to play in his crib by himself! How can I stretch my 5-month-old's wake windows? He struggles in the morning, especially. Do you have any tips for juggling multiple nap schedules/bedtimes with multiple little ones, while still trying to have a life? I feel like I’m trapped in the house playing "musical kids all day." What are your tips for transitioning a toddler from a crib to a bed? And here are the FREE resources I mentioned in the episode: FREE sleep schedule guide for babies FREE bedtime boundary cards for toddlers
