What to know at 15 month old

Most toddlers are on a single midday nap by now. Watch your baby’s tired cues — yawning, looking away, fussing — rather than the clock alone, and keep the room dark and cool for sleep.

Tips for better sleep

  • Aim for a wake window of about 4-5 hrs to avoid an overtired baby.
  • Keep a short, consistent wind-down routine before each sleep.
  • A dark room and white noise can help lengthen naps.
  • Put baby down drowsy but awake when you can, to build self-settling.
