How Much Sleep Does Your Baby or Toddler Need?

August 25, 2019 /Posted byMELISSA PERRY / 2857

Most parents know that growing kids need good sleep, but many don’t know just how many hours kids require, and what the impact can be of missing as little as 30 to 60 minutes of sleep time.

If you suspect your child isn’t sleeping enough, it’s important to talk to your pediatrician or one of our sleep consultants. In many cases, sleep deprivation in children can be helped with changes to the environment and habits surrounding bedtime.
