Why a calming bedtime matters
Bedtime is where the day softens.
It's where children make sense of everything they've seen and felt.
A slow, gentle routine helps little hearts feel safe, secure and ready to rest.
Even five minutes of calm connection before sleep can make the world feel kinder.

Bedtime is a chance to reconnect.
To gather up the day - the big feelings and the small joys - and to put them somewhere safe.
These little moments of closeness tell a child, "You are held. You can rest now."
These small steps help little bodies and hearts to slow down.

A quiet tidy up

A soft light in the dark
The same gentle rhythm each night becomes something familiar and safe -
a way of saying,
"You can rest now, I'm here."
