Toddler that won’t sleep??

Ugh girl I feel this. My niece also just turned 2. I care for her and her sister who is 4 and I have mine who is 4, going on 5yr old. The 2yr old is sleeping until noon. Goes to bed, well actually I consider it a nap at 4pm-5ish, wakes up again around midnight stays up until about 5am-6ish and then goes back to sleep. I honestly think she enjoys the quiet time with us together. My older niece is wild. Trying so hard to correct bad behavior because of the environment that she grew up in prior. I’m also a night owl so I kinda like it. And I enjoy our time together. But it’s deff a challenge for me during the day! I tried to switch her schedule but she always goes back to this lol

Omg! We are facing this same thing! Just last night our toddler wouldn’t go to bed. She isn’t 2 yet but it’s two weeks away! I’m interested in any tips anyone can share!

Ya but he don’t even nap anymore lol! Even if he gets up with his older sister and brother for school at 6am no naps through the day! It’s just me and him for 8hr why sis and baba at school so that’s why I’m confused about this!

Tuning in because SAME 😭 SOS

My daughter use to do this, I just turned bedtime from 8 to 9-10PM. I hangout with her and give her a bath at 9 and she usually knocks out after a warm bath. This way she’s still well rested by 8-9AM to head to daycare. All depending on your schedule, I’d just push bedtime back a bit. And bathe later so she’s nice and calm/ Cozy with her fuzzy pjs.

I don’t know if he takes naps during the day but if so I would take them away or make them earlier in the day for a shorter period of time. And maybe try a different bedtime

FTM
So my son will be 2 Nov 18, 2023 it’s my baby bday this weekend!!!! He use to be the same way so I tried to create a routine where he feels like he’s still in control.
But he has a routine even if it’s slightly altered some days by a hour.
Wake up @9am Around 3-5pm he needs a mid day nap. He doesn’t like to really take naps until he’s drained. So 3-5pmwe play in his room & I make sure to try n stay in the bed til he’s ready to join me & then eventually we sleep & are back up @7pm I cook , he plays & then we eat. More play time , bedtime routine & into his room by 10pm. He’s always tired by this time but won’t just go to bed. I’ll get in his bed let him play til he’s ready to join me & were sleep by 12am. Then he’s literally to drained to even wake up in the middle of the night. This has been our routine for a few months. Now he just tells me he’s sleepy and wants to go night night & wants cuddles. Also I do give him a snack n drink during bedtime. Hope this helps. :)
