A young child with dark hair looking directly at the camera with a neutral expression, standing behind a wooden railing. The background is soft and blurred with colorful elements. The image is the cover of a book titled "Split nights" by Catherine Wasley, a certified holistic sleep coach, with the subtitle "Aka your baby hosting middle of the night parties."

If your baby is wide awake in the wee small hours of the morning - happy, babbling, crawling, practising new skills - while you’re staring at the ceiling wondering what went wrong….this guide will help.

Split nights are one of the most confusing sleep challenges because they don’t look like typical night waking.

There’s no distress.
No obvious problem.
Just a long, calm stretch of wakefulness in the middle of the night.

And that’s what makes them so hard to solve.

This isn’t about forcing a longer night or “fixing” your baby.

It’s a calm, zoomed-out approach that looks at sleep across the full 24 hours so you can understand what’s actually driving those long overnight wakes.

Inside, you’ll find:

• What split nights actually are, and why they’re different from ordinary night waking

• The real reasons split nights happen (including why it’s rarely overtiredness)

• A simple explanation of sleep pressure and circadian rhythm

• How naps and night sleep balance each other

• Small, realistic tweaks that help sleep redistribute naturally

• What to do during a split night without escalating things

• When to wait, and when to gently adjust

• Real-life examples so you can see how it plays out

No rigid routines.
No sleep training.
No “just put them down drowsy but awake” advice.

Just clear, grounded guidance to help your nights make sense again.
