In my 7 years of daycare and 8 babies later, I have never had this big of a sleep issue....I NEED HELP!!!!!
My own soon, who is 17 months old(and my only infant in care right now) has become a HORRIBLE sleeper. About 3 weeks ago it started at bedtime, now it's escalating to naptime. He will not go to sleep on his own, freaks out screaming and crying when he is laid down. Stands up screaming the entire time, won't lay down. I've tried CIO(with my husband giving in after 40 mins), going in every few minutes and telling him good night, love you, etc. The only thing that will calm him is to hold him, he will fall back to sleep within minutes and scream immediately upon me moving an inch. Bedtime routine is anywhere from 2-4 hours now, naps are getting missed completely. It's awful and I am to the point of feeling like I need to get a job for a break! School is out in 2 weeks and with a house full of kids this is going to be very bad!!!
