When can my baby sleep alone?

The fact is: In the first few months, babies usually sleep in the parents' room, ideally in a cot. From the sixth month onwards, many can gradually begin to find rest in their own room, in their own crib. What's important is not "sleeping through the night at the push of a button," but rather comfort, security, and established routines.

Especially during the first few nights alone in their own bed, it's helpful to place a familiar blanket or a worn shirt from the parents in the crib. The familiar smell provides security and eases the transition to the new sleeping environment. A quiet background noise like white noise or gentle nature sounds can also help babies block out distractions and fall asleep more easily.

Another tip: Pay attention to your baby's signs of tiredness. Overtiredness often leads to increased restlessness and difficulty falling asleep. When your child shows the first signs, such as rubbing their eyes or whining, it's time for bed. At the same time, set bedtimes provide guidance – babies love repetitive routines and respond positively to this rhythm.
