About this episode

This episode discusses nap strikes in children, their causes, and strategies for parents to cope with them.

Is your little one suddenly refusing naps after being a great sleeper? You may be dealing with a nap strike, a common developmental phase that can leave parents wondering what changed. In this episode, Pam and Elisa explain what nap strikes are, why they happen, and how to respond without creating new sleep challenges. They share practical strategies to help your child get back on track, when it's appropriate to adjust their schedule, and how to tell the difference between a temporary nap strike and genuine readiness to drop a nap. If nap time has become a daily struggle, this episode will help you navigate it with confidence and consistency. As always join Elisa and Pam in the ⁠FB group for Q&A's and support. ⁠ Until next time, Restful Parenting:)
