One nap schedule

For those who are down to one nap a day, what time are they sleeping from and until? My little girl usually does 1130-1 but I'm just struggling when to give her lunch. 11 seems too early and 1:30 is a bit late because we eat our evening meal anywhere between 4-4:30pm. Do I abandon lunch all together and just do a snack at 11 and then a snack at 1:30? What's everyone elses nap schedule looking like?

Sometimes I split lunch in half and give her half before and half after if it’s those sorts of times

I always give some sort of snack before nap and lunch when he wakes but we done have tea till 6pm x

i would give lunch at 1pm, he gets his evening meal 5-5.30 though. i'd just whip up something super quick, or prepare during nap so he could have it pretty soon after waking! x

It’s never the same time per day but it’s usually around 11-1:30/2pm

11 lunch, nap 10 minutes after she's finished which is roughly 11:30, sleeps till 3. She'll have a little snack, mostly fruit with something else then dinner at 5ish

I would give lunch at 1.30pm and then dinner around 5pm. This is what I do if my boy has an early nap

Nursery’s/day care do 8am breakfast, 11am lunch, 3.30/4pm dinner and then we do a light tea around 6.30. My youngest sleeps from 11/11.30 until 3ish. So I try and follow the nursery routine.

@Annie a 3.5-4 hour nap?! Woah, I’m lucky if we get over 1.5 hours, be that over one nap or 2 🤣 do they sleep well at night with that mega nap?

Haha, I know! I’ve always had sleepy babies though, I got lucky. My eldest used to get up at 7, have his breakfast, sleep from 9-12ish, have his lunch and then go back to sleep for another 3/4 hours and then sleep through the night with bedtime at 7! My second axed the naps around 1, she was too busy being busy, my 3rd still naps for a couple of hours in the afternoon and is VILE if he doesn’t get his sleep in and yeah, my youngest has a mega nap and is crying to go to bed at 6! He sleeps til around 7am.

I usually give a small snack before nap and then once he wakes up after around 1ish we have lunch
