Nighttime naps can be a polarizing sleep topic, but they're an essential element of many baby's and young toddler's sleep repertoires!
For some babies, a nighttime nap can help 'top up' their day sleep and ensure they're not over-tired heading into the evening and overnight sleeps. For others, a later nap can help them through the tricky toddler years - especially if they are fighting an early bedtime or experiencing early wake ups. And of course, some babies need both!
What do nighttime naps look like in your house? How old is your little one and what time is their last sleep? Do you have a routine leading up to it and how long does it typically last? I'd love to hear about your experiences and any tips you've picked up along the way!
