The Bedtime Blueprint
Your secret weapon for wild toddler bedtimes!
Turn your dread-time into a dreamy bedtime.
Toddler bedtimes are not the easiest…
Does your toddler’s bedtime look something like this?
Your toddler doesn’t want to get started getting ready for bed. They’re using every delay tactic that they know.
After a lot of coaxing, you can get your toddler in the bath. The next problem is trying to get them out of the bath! They didn’t want to get in, and now they don’t want to get out.
Now your toddler is running around the house naked, and you’re trying to corral them into their bedroom to get into their pjs.
Your toddler wants the pjs that are in the wash, obviously! You’re beginning to get stressed out.
You’re trying to read books and listen to some meditations, but your toddler is having none of it! You’re near to losing your s@*t.
Finally, you manage to get your toddler into bed. Now, you wait and wait and wait until they reluctantly fall asleep.
Finally, it’s time to start your evening. Sigh.

How to respond when things are going sideways, simple techniques to keep your cool when your toddler is losing theirs and ways to bounce back when you’ve had one of those moments.
As a mother of a spirited son who challenged every parenting norm, I discovered firsthand that traditional sleep strategies don’t work for every child. My eldest, now 21, was my greatest teacher—showing me early on that one-size-fits-all sleep approaches fall short when you’re raising a uniquely intense, passionate child.
This personal journey transformed into my professional mission. Over the years, I’ve worked closely with thousands of parents navigating the beautiful complexity of raising spirited children. My speciality? Helping parents create calm, connected bedtimes without sacrificing their mental health or their relationship with their child.
My approach isn’t about rigid rules, but understanding—understanding the unique temperament of each child and empowering parents with flexible, compassionate strategies that actually work.
