My child keeps getting out of bed…help!
Written by Claire Burgess, Family Consultant. Has your child recently moved from a cot to a bed, and now keeps getting up to come and find you? This can be a very common situation that parents find themselves in and often a child can go from sleeping well in their cot to being awake several times per night and refusing to stay in their bed!
Moving your child from their cot to a bed
Written by Claire Burgess, Family Consultant. The transition from cot to bed can happen anywhere between the ages of 18 months and 3 years old. My advice would always be that the closer you can get to 3 years old the better! Being closer to 3 they are more developmentally ready for this change and will have a greater understanding of the concept of being in a bed. By doing the transition at this stage it will usually go much more smoothly than doing it when they are very little.
