All babies need to sleep so that they can grow and develop. Every baby has a different sleep pattern – some sleep through the night and others do not!

There are some simple steps you can take to help encourage a more peaceful night’s rest if your baby is not settling:

Keep lights low while feeding at night
Talk and sing in a soft voice so baby starts to see a difference between day and night
Start a simple bedtime routine of bath, feed and bed
If you can, try to always put your baby in her cot (or moses basket) so she associates it with bedtime
Have a little wind down time after any play.
