Bedtime Meltdown Reset: A Simple 10-Minute Routine to Help Overwhelmed Kids Wind Down, Regulate and Settle for Sleep

Are bedtime battles leaving you and your child completely exhausted?

You dim the lights, read a story, and follow the routine—but instead of winding down, your child speeds up. They start running around, shouting, crying over the "wrong" pyjamas, or demanding "just one more drink." It can feel like they are deliberately pushing your buttons. But beneath the defiance, something else is happening: their nervous system is stuck on full speed, and they simply don’t know how to slow down.
In Bedtime Meltdown Reset, parenting author Robert J. Millar delivers a compassionate, practical, and revolutionary approach to ending the bedtime power struggles. Grounded in empathy and behavioural science, this quick 10-minute guide shows you exactly how to become the "bridge" your child needs to transition peacefully from a busy day into deep, restful sleep. Inside this simple, parent-friendly guide, you’ll discover:

• The 10-Minute RESET Routine: A step-by-step, actionable framework to de-escalate a meltdown without screaming or giving up your boundaries.
• The "Dimmer Switch" Concept: Why tired children suddenly look hyper, and how to spot hidden warning signs before the crash happens.
• Your Child's "Calm Menu": How to build a custom, sensory-friendly toolkit of choices that help your child learn to regulate their own body.
• The First 10 Minutes: A predictable, low-stress opening sequence that shifts the entire energy of your evening.
• Scripts That Work: What to say (and what to stop saying) when big emotions take over, using fewer words for maximum calm.

Perfect for overwhelmed parents of toddlers to pre-teens, this short book isn't about rigid rules or perfect parenting. It’s about creating predictability, reducing sensory pressure, and reclaiming your evenings.
