If you’ve ever found yourself dreading bedtime more than your child does, you’re not alone. By the end of the day, everyone is tired—and that’s exactly when patience runs thin.
What should be a calm, connecting time often turns into a battle of wills.
The truth is, kids thrive on consistency, but even the best bedtime plans can get thrown off by a late night or an exception at Grandma’s. The trick isn’t perfection—it’s having a routine and strategies that help you bounce back when things go off track.
One simple shift can make all the difference: instead of battles over “one more story” or “five more minutes,” you can create an experience that feels positive, structured, and even fun.
When your child looks forward to what comes next, bedtime becomes less about resistance and more about connection.
In my bedtime support guide, I share specific tools you can use to make evenings smoother, more predictable, and—believe it or not—something both you and your child can enjoy.
