$32.00$28.80 Member Price

The need for sleep and rest varies as children develop and grow, and in many cases, an early childhood setting is very different to the home sleep environment. This can cause restlessness and difficulty sleeping for children of all ages.

This webinar examines practical safe sleeping strategies for settling multiple children in Early Childhood Education and Care settings. It will examine many methods of settling groups of babies or children, as well as ways to discuss and work collaboratively with parents and caregivers to support a child in sleep.
