Baby's nap at 1 year

By the time your baby blows out her first candle, she's sleeping a little less than before, but at a set rate.

• By 12 months, your baby needs 11 to 14 hours of sleep a day.
• their circadian rhythm is in place: their body recognizes certain times, including bedtime and wake-up time.
• You can help your little one fall asleep by creating a calm and soothing atmosphere about 30 minutes before bedtime. Now is the time to tell her a story!
• Get him a blanket or stuffed animal to snuggle up with in bed.
