Transition to bed

I’ve read the parenting blogs and honestly, I need to know some real advice. We’re on day two, she was climbing out of the crib so we switched a few days after that to make sure she wouldn’t hurt herself. Yesterday she was up for hours, so my husband went in and slept there. She was being quiet tonight but we heard activity and checked on her- decided to sleep in there again. She’s ripping up books (not sure why she does jt, but that’s not unusual for her) and pulling paintings off the wall. Now, I’m thinking that tomorrow one of us should just stay in her room after bedtime until she goes asleep.

Telling her rules and putting in a colour changing clock won’t make her stay in bed, so what did you do (if you’ve made the switch)?
