How can I get my 3-year-old to stay in her bed at night?

Hey moms, I’m at my wits end. I need my almost 3 year old to stay in her bed at night. She comes into my room every single night. Last night she came in around 1 AM and didn’t go back to sleep until 4 AM!!!

Why can’t she get in bed with you? She’s 2 and wants her mom

My 3 y/o does this too but he will go right back to sleep so I just accept it :smile: Do you have a night light/sound machine? I guess I would want to figure out why she’s staying up for 3 hrs lol

Mine always slept in bed with me. Or in our room. Now they are grown & I miss it

I always read mine a story, before bed, bathtime to make them tired before that. Then they got tucked in. Or they were allowed to play in their room. But not allowed out. If they come down put them back in their room saying it’s adults time now. Your bed time.

Shut the door with a child lock on the inside and video monitor!!

Do you have a baby gate? We used baby gates with ours we got a few tantrums but eventually he gave up and went to bed

My 3 year old is currently almost a permanent fixture in my bed… good luck!
