My daughter is 3 years 3 months old. When can I start skipping the afternoon nap? She just doesn’t want to sleep in the afternoon. I have to force her and put to bed for 1-1.5 hour. Then she sleeps very late in the night around 12. I want her to get to proper schedule as she has started online schooling . Can you please advise on good sleeping schedule for her age. Thanks!
