i think it is wrong to refer to a sleep clinic, this should be the last resort.
if its any consolation my own children didnt sleep proper through the night till late in life and still need little sleep nowdays
Hope this helps and remember above all to keep calm and not to make the child aware there is a problem.

Hi Maria
Have only seen your reply on here! so sorry for just replying now.
No she doesnt have her own room, she shares with her younger sister until they find somewhere new to live with more bedrooms. she's a very much a girly girl from what I know and loves playing with dolls etc, so i will get them to see how she plays with them.
thanks again x
