Re: helping them learn to go to sleep
What I always suggest when they start to get settling down to sleep resistant is trying something totally new that doesnt resemble former bedtime that has stopped working.Watch for that getting sleepy time window and sit with her in a big chair and rock in a dim room with little noise.Something like that.IME being taught to self soothe isnt the goal, it is setting them up for success and figuring out what helps them to sleep or be ready for sleep.You may have to switch it up as they grow and change
