Bedtime Anxiety Help for Children

The Bedtime Hero Program

This program, designed by a child psychiatrist, helps your 5 to 12 year old child with bedtime anxiety build confidence and learn to sleep comfortably on their own.

How the Online Program Works

Your child is guided through an entertaining series of steps with Dr Mark's voice and cartoon animations.

You simply support and encourage them along the way.

The process:

1. Prepare for success
You’ll learn exactly how to introduce the program and set a positive tone.

2. Work through the steps together
Your child follows engaging sessions that break the problem into manageable pieces.

3. Build confidence over time
Progress is gradual, consistent, and measurable.

Why This Works

Most approaches focus on what the parent should do.

This program focuses on what the child learns to do.

When children actively solve the bedtime anxiety problem themselves:

  • they become more confident
  • they feel in control
  • the change lasts

What Parents Notice

  • Fewer bedtime struggles
  • Less anxiety at night
  • Children staying in their own bed
  • A growing sense of confidence and independence

Real Results

In clinical practice, this method led to significant improvement in over 90% of children with anxiety at bedtime.

A Parent’s Experience

"I was DESPERATE when I stumbled across this program in the middle of the night. My 6 year old who has never been a great sleeper had fallen into a pattern of not wanting to go to sleep and waking up 1-2 times a night for a few months “scared”. I was willing to try ANYTHING. The program worked almost immediately! We set an original goal of 7 nights in a row. After a few trial nights she slept until night 6. Then we reset with the intent of a small prize at the end of the week. She was successful! The next time we increased it to 14 days and have added on each time since then. So in the last 45 days she has slept all night at least 40 of them. It’s been amazing and she loves it!"
