Although this schedule pertains to toddlers and older children, babies are loved and held and involved in all aspects of what we do. They will be nurtured, and nourished, fed bottles, have tummy time, Swing, exersaucer, jumperoos, Boppy time, Book time with me or lullaby time, along with diapering and naps. Parents are encouraged to share all tricks and schedules that work for their children. Please let me know of any concerns that you may have regarding your child or children.
""""Daily naps for children are essential for good days and good nights. Many parents believe their child will sleep better at night without a nap during the day. However, if your child is overly tired, they may become stressed and irritable, and their behavior may actually worsen. Often they become overactive, making it difficult to fall asleep at bedtime. Only after age 5 will eliminating afternoon naps help a child go to bed earlier in the evening.""-(Childrens Hospital St. Louis)
