Solve toddler sleep problems

How can I stop my toddler waking at 5.30am every day?

Get a nightlight and connect it to a timer switch. Explain he should only get out of bed if the light is on and, if it isn't, he should try to go back to sleep or lie quietly in his bed until it comes on. Use a rewards system, such as a sticker chart, to encourage him.
