Summary

This guide, written by pediatric sleep specialist Melisa Moore, addresses sleep challenges in children and adolescents with neurodivergent conditions, including autism and ADHD. Drawing on clinical experience and personal experience as a parent, the author presents strategies for understanding and supporting sleep in neurodiverse family contexts. The work combines research-based information with practical guidance for caregivers, emphasizing individualized approaches rather than standardized sleep-training methods. It discusses common sleep difficulties, misconceptions about sleep behavior, and adaptive strategies aimed at improving rest and daily functioning.
