Did you know melatonin is a hormone? It’s true! This is why we do not recommend melatonin for children unless it has been specifically discussed with your child’s P*P or specialist AND there is a plan in place in regards to timing of administration, dose, and length of treatment. The goal should always be to use it temporarily.

This is a great reminder that just because something is over the counter does not mean it is inherently safe or a good option for your child. Melatonin can actually make sleep worse for some kids! It’s always best to discuss your child’s sleep concerns with a medical provider before considering melatonin.

Did you know that snoring in children is abnormal and warrants a discussion with your child’s primary care provider?

Sleep is such a foundational part of your child’s health, and any concerns about the quality or quantity of the sleep they are getting should be discussed.

A child’s sleep environment is very important for a good night’s sleep. A good rule of thumb is to make sure the room cool, dark, and quiet. If a child is too hot or cold, too bright, or too loud it can disturb their sleep quality. For most, a room temperature of 68-72 degrees Fahrenheit is ideal. Keep the room dark and avoid using closet lights or overhead lights. Blackout curtains can help- especially in summer when it remains bright outside well into evening. A small nightlight is fine for any young kids with nighttime fears, but you should not be able to read a book and the nightlight shoukd@not be directly next to the crib or bed. Minimize awakenings from noise outside their room with a white noise machine if needed.

A proper sleep environment is the first step toward a good nights sleep!
