SEN Parent Sleep & Rest Log

SEN Parent Sleep & Rest Log
Helping You Notice What Affects Sleep & What Helps

Every child has their own sleep patterns, needs and ways of finding rest.

If you're an SEN parent, you'll know that sleep isn't always straightforward. Some nights go smoothly, while others can involve hours of settling, frequent night wakings or wondering why your child is finding it so difficult to switch off.

And when you're tired yourself, it isn't always easy to remember what happened the night before, let alone notice patterns over several weeks.

That's why I created the SEN Parent Sleep & Rest Log.

Made by a SEN parent, this practical sleep tracker gives you one place to record your child's sleep, bedtime routines and anything that might be affecting their rest.

Rather than trying to achieve the perfect bedtime, it's about noticing the little things and gradually building a better understanding of your child's individual sleep needs.

Inside you'll find:

• 60 Easy-to-use sleep tracking pages, with space to record two weeks at a time
• Space to track bedtimes, wake-up times and night wakings
• Morning mood, naps and total hours of sleep tracking
• Space to record possible factors affecting sleep
• Pages to explore bedtime routines, sleep comforts and individual needs
• Space for your own observations and notes
• End-of-book reflection pages to help you look back at patterns and what seems to help

With enough tracking pages to record over two years of sleep patterns, this log can also help you keep useful information together for conversations with teachers, healthcare professionals or anyone involved in supporting your child.

You don't need to fill in every box or track every single night. Some weeks you might record lots of detail, while other weeks you might only manage a few notes, and that's absolutely fine.

This book isn't about perfect sleep or getting every bedtime right. It's about understanding your child a little more, noticing what helps and finding what works for your family.

Made by a SEN parent, for SEN families.

PLEASE NOTE: I had my notebooks printed through Amazon, which means there aren’t too many options for paper. To keep them affordable, I went with standard-quality paper.
