🛌 Struggling with your child's sleep?
Here are 5 key things to know 💤👇
1️⃣ Sleep needs change with age – From babies to adults, we all need different amounts of sleep (and it's totally normal to vary!).
2️⃣ Our body runs on a clock 🕒 – The circadian rhythm resets every 24 hours, guided by the sleep hormone melatonin.
3️⃣ Sleep isn’t just “on” or “off” – We cycle through light, deep (Non-REM), and dream (REM) sleep throughout the night.
4️⃣ Poor sleep = big impact – It can affect your child's mood, learning, behaviour, coordination, and sensory processing.
5️⃣ Sleep is influenced by many things – Your child, home environment, routines… it all plays a role.
