Southwest Human Development Sleep Tip #5: Routines help babies transition before bedtime. Whether it’s singing a couple of special songs, rocking in a caregiver’s arms or telling all of their stuffed animals night night, quiet rituals before each nap or bedtime help your little one begin to relax before going to bed.
Southwest Human Development Sleep Tip #4 Prepare for the Second Shoe to Drop: Depending on your baby's age, when you begin putting him/her to sleep at a specified time, their initial reactions will differ. Soon these will dissipate as they acclimate to their new schedule.
Southwest Human Development Sleep Tip #3 Consistency is Key: Make sure that everyone who cares for your baby is on board BEFORE you begin your sleep schedule. Consistency creates predictability and helps babies feel safe and secure.

Southwest Human Development Sleep Tip #2 Putting Baby on a Sleep Schedule: Try to match your baby's natural sleep patterns to new schedule. Keep diary for 24-48 hours; tracking when baby sleeps and wakes. Help determine what nap and bedtimes will work best for the baby and entire family.
Southwest Human Development With the busyness of the holiday season, sleep may be hard to find for you or your little ones. Try Sleep Tip #1: Know how many hours of sleep the American Academy of Pediatrics (www.aap.org) recommends for your baby according to his/her age in months. Make sure you adjust accordingly if your baby was born prematurely.
