Bedtime Routine Checklist for Babies

Bedtime

Last updated:

Establish a calming bedtime routine for your baby with this comprehensive checklist. Begin by ensuring your little one is clean, comfortable, and swaddled in a cozy blanket. Create a soothing atmosphere by dimming the lights and playing gentle sounds. Provide nourishment and comfort through feeding, burping, and cuddling. Engage in calming activities such as reading a bedtime story or singing a lullaby, followed by gentle rocking or swaying to help them drift off to sleep. Finally, place your baby in their sleeping space and offer a pacifier if needed, leaving the room quietly once they are settled.
