Tips for Establishing a Sleep Routine (From a Children's Sleep Expert)

Every child is different, so consider this a guide. Whatever you choose to include in your routine, aim to keep it:

• Easy and Simple: You'll know what you and your baby respond to best.
• Calming: Encourage family 'wind down time'. Dim the lights and put away bright or noisy toys at least 30 minutes before baby's bedtime.
• Consistent: Sometimes life throws routine out, just do your best to keep it the same.

For Newborns:

1. Prepare anything you'll need during baby's wind down time. Set up your Euky Bear Sweet Dreams sleep aid one metre away from the cot or bed.
2. Give baby an optional warm bath or massage.
3. Check room temperature, make sure baby is changed, comfortable and fed.
4. Time for a cuddle; an important bonding time. Settle baby in the cot while drowsy (but before they're asleep).
5. Turn on the red light and choose from the soothing sounds.
