Toddler sleep is different. It’s emotional, complex, and often feels like a test of patience. But here is the secret: Toddler sleep is not a skill to teach, it is a state the nervous system needs to reach.
In "Decoding Your Toddler's Sleep," Award-Winning Consultant Keri Rock introduces her signature REST Method, a responsive, sustainable framework designed for children aged 12 months to 4 years. This isn't about "fixing" a bad habit, it's about understanding the big emotions beneath the stalling tactics and night waking.
The REST Method: A 4-step framework (Respond, Encourage, Settle, Transition) that works with your child's temperament, not against it.
The Bucket Analogy: Learn how to fill your toddler’s "Power" and "Attention" buckets during the day to prevent meltdowns at night.
The Science of "Rough & Tumble": Why active play before bed actually activates the parasympathetic nervous system for better sleep.
Practical Boundary Tools: How to use Bedtime Passes, Tokens, and "Pop-Outs" to leave the room with confidence.
Environment & Safety: A comprehensive checklist for a sleep-friendly room, including the benefits of red light and white noise.
Milestone Support: Expert advice on transitioning to a toddler bed and navigating nightmares vs. night terrors.
Whether you are dealing with a "Velcro toddler" who won't let you leave or a "stalling master" asking for their tenth glass of water, this guide provides the empathy and expertise you need to reclaim your evenings.
