If your toddler is in the middle of the 2 to 1 nap transition or suddenly dropping a nap, this episode will help you make it smoother (and less stressful). We’re covering when the switch usually happens, the signs to look for, and how to move toward a one nap schedule that actually works.

We’ll talk about why you shouldn’t rush the transition, how to use a modified 2-nap schedule as a first step, and what a realistic baby sleep schedule looks like once you’re on one nap. I’m also sharing what to expect in the early weeks (short naps, bouncing between 1 and 2 naps, early bedtimes) plus tips for handling daycare schedules that may transition too early.

As a certified sleep consultant, I’ve helped hundreds of families through this milestone, and the right steps can make this transition much smoother for your toddler (and your sanity).
