Toddler Sleep: Transitioning to One Nap, Bedtime Battles, and Nightmares with Brittany Sheehan | Ep. 108


When do you move down to one nap and how?! JUST when you think you’ve got it figured out, naps shift, bedtime battles creep in, or your little one starts waking from nightmares. If you’re in that tricky 12-24 month window, this episode is packed with clarity and encouragement.

I’m joined by pediatric sleep coach Brittany Sheehan, who breaks down what’s really going on during this stage and how to handle the most common toddler sleep struggles. Together, we cover:

  • How to understand your toddler’s evolving sleep schedule

  • What to expect (and how to survive) the transition to one nap

  • Simple strategies for handling bedtime resistance

  • Tips for keeping routines on track while traveling

  • Nightmares, night terrors, and how to respond when your toddler wakes scared

  • Helping your little one through fears and anxiety that can interrupt sleep

If you’ve been second-guessing yourself at bedtime or feel like sleep is always shifting, this episode will give you the tools to move forward with confidence.
