Are you a nanny? Children you babysit refuse to go to bed? If so, then this article is for you. Sleep is an important part of every child's development, and it is your responsibility as a nanny to make sure they get enough sleep!

Steps

1. 1 Ask them tenderly. If you are angry with them, it is obvious that they will not want to listen to you. In their eyes, you will be bad. If you are kind and treat them well, they are more likely to obey you.
2. 2 Be serious. Sometimes it is difficult for children to know if you are serious or just fooling around? Make sure they understand that when you say “Time to go to bed,” it’s not a joke.
3. 3 Play with them. Run, jump, go out for a walk, do whatever you want. If they are tired, they will quickly go to bed.
4. 4 Use magic potions. Okay, maybe we know they're not magical, but the kids don't. Try to mix apple and orange juices, and call this mixture "sleeping potion", and suddenly, the children will feel very tired. You don't even have to stick to the "potion" theme all the time, other foods will do too.
5. 5 After parental approval, give them a warm drink before bed, such as hot cocoa or warm milk. The best recipe for warm milk is to add some powdered sugar and vanilla to one cup of milk. This is a spicy and delicious drink!
6. 6 Read them a bedtime story, give them a little back massage, sing a lullaby. All this creates a relaxing atmosphere that calms the baby and prepares him for sleep.
7. 7 If the child is afraid of monsters or something similar, bring him a bottle of water in a spray bottle and say: “This is a spray against monsters! This is my secret potion! Therefore, you must promise to NEVER tell anyone about him! " Goodnight.
8. 8 Turn on the night light. If a child is afraid, he will not fall asleep. A simple night light can solve this problem in an instant.

Tips

• If the child gets out of bed over and over again, repeat the last three steps. If he gets out of bed more than twice, explain to him that he should go to bed. Tell him that his parents would like him to stay in bed. If all else fails, stand at the door to your child's room and make sure he doesn't get up. Make sure to leave a note for your parents to find out if this problem is just because Mom and Dad are gone or it's a constant problem.
• If the child just isn't listening to you, tell him it's important to listen to the nanny when Mom and Dad are gone. Tell your child that his parents would like him to go to bed.
• Use reverse psychology (reverse). If the child still refuses to go to bed, tell him that he can wait for the parents to come. The child may start worrying about being punished and go to bed.

Warnings

• When giving your child a potion, make sure he is not allergic to it.
