Baton Rouge doctors share tips to help kids adjust sleep schedules before schoolBATON ROUGE — With students across the capital area returning to the classroom next week, doctors say now is the time for families to start adjusting sleep schedules instead of waiting until the night before school begins. Alexander Mulamula, a sleep specialist with Ochsner Health, recommends that parents ease children back into a school-night routine by gradually shifting their bedtime and wake-up time earlier each day. Doctors say that prepping for a good night’s sleep starts well before bedtime. Doctors say parents can also help by adhering to healthy sleep habits themselves to encourage kids to follow a good sleep schedule. Mulamula also recommends that parents watch for signs that their child may not be getting enough sleep.
