How do I end contact naps? Need help!

How old is little one? With my first, we found that she was absolutely against being put down for a nap if she’d fallen asleep on us, but if we figured she was close to a nap and put her in the pram then she’d fuss a bit but fall asleep in there and we’d get a decent nap from her in there. A bit of a nightmare if you then need to get inside and that isn’t too simple (ie if you’re in a flat or have stairs up to your door)

We’ve managed to transition from exclusively context naps to now also car seat and pram naps, but she point blank refuses a cot nap, she’s 12 months and she’s never once had a cot nap (despite trying numerous times)

I got my little one to fall asleep on me while I was sat on the couch or bed and then slowly place her next to me on the couch/bed so she’s still feeling my body next to hers and then I’d slowly move away. Hope that made sense. Obviously I’d stay near her so she didn’t fall off the bed or couch but it got her used to not sleeping on me so now I can put her in her bed with no issues. It didn’t work overnight I’d say it took a few weeks but it worked for me 🤷🏻‍♀️ Good luck!

My little girl is also like this, sleeps through the night in her next to me crib but during the day doesn't want to sleep unless she's on me, If I have jobs I want to do I wear her in a baby carrier and then she'll sleep for an hour sometimes two quite happily, if I don't have jobs to do I just lay with her in her play gym on the floor until she drifts off but the most she'll sleep for is 30mins.

my little one is quite happy to sleep in the car in the car seat or in the pram when I'm walking somewhere but not helpful when you have jobs in the house to do or dont need to be constantly on the move.

My daughter was like this until around 9 months when we thought we just need to bite the bullet and get her to sleep in her cot.

We would rock her to sleep (still do!), hold her for 15 minutes and then transfer her to her crib. Most of the time it meant she would wake up after 15-20 mins but we just accepted it. After maybe a week she started napping longer and longer

Nope. Even my MIL and PT Nanny hold LO for naps. lO will sometimes move away on his own if we're laying down together, but won't sleep on his own for more than 30-45(max), depending on how tired he is. I know he won't need contact forever. He's just a high contact needs baby (always has been). He's 14 months now, and I know it won't last forever. Some babies just need more contact, and we've accepted that. (We have tried switching him, and he used to do only super short naps in the crib/bassinet), but everyone was so sleep deprived we stopped trying and accepted the contact sleep. We'll continue as long as he needs it

I started with first nap of the day. Or one sleep cycle ans then rescued the rest
