To treat insomnia in a child, focus on establishing a consistent bedtime routine, limiting caffeine or screen time before bed, and creating a calm sleep environment. Behavioral therapy, like cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), can also be effective. If the insomnia persists, consulting a pediatrician is recommended to rule out any underlying medical or psychological issues.
YES! Its a broad question but it can! Read Richard Ferber's book, Solving my child's sleep problem" as a start and reach out to your PCP or sleep doctor
