Mom advice?!

Question

I’ve recently taken my nephew in (temporary custody) he goes to preschool, he’s 4. He woke up at 8:30am & didn’t nap. I usually do bed time 9-9:30 on days he naps. Should I put him to bed at 8-8:30 tonight because no nap? He’s tired & I do the same routine every night (bath, brush teeth, potty, bed) I have to wake him up about 7:30am tomorrow. What time do you put your 4 year olds to sleep? 😭 I need help!
Edit- I’m new to taking care of a child 24/7, please no bashing. This was an emergency placement and I’m trying to get a steady routine for him.

Answer

My 6 year old is in bed at 7:30. But she’s always been an early riser.

Answer

My niece and nephew are 4 and 6. If they don't nap and I have them I will get them in bed by 8 -830. Hell my two older kids were still in bed by 830-9 because they got up at 6 for school. 4 is about the time they stop napping. You could do his routine a bit earlier in the evenings and see if he will head to bed earlier if he's tired. Sounds like you are on it and doing good... 💗

Answer

My 4 year old goes to bed between 7-8. Closer to 7 on no nap days, closer to 8 on nap days. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Answer

My 4yo doesn't nap, is up at 7 and down for 8.

Answer

Look at the website 
Www.weebeedreaming.com
It has great info on newborn/infant/toddler/and beyond sleep patterns. You might be putting him too late even on days he does nap.

Answer
