Tool | Nap Schedule
This 10 month old page lets you compare the rest of a day from your own records. You choose the remaining nap count, intervals and durations; the age label does not supply or approve a schedule.
An interval is the awake time from waking until the next sleep starts. It is different from nap length. You do not need to guess a number to use this page.
A missed nap by itself cannot choose a new bedtime. Keep following any existing care instructions; use the guide to review your situation rather than inventing an interval.
Add a known event first to enable saving your record.
Choose a starting point. Nothing is recorded until you submit an entry.
Compare using the last recorded wake and your settings. Nothing is added to your actual record.
Start with what you know. You can save your record without comparing times. Record what happened

What you explicitly entered as having happened.
A future assumption. Never added to recorded sleep.
A range of possible times. Unknown stays unknown.
Sequence view, not a time scale. Estimated ranges and unknown times stay visible. Planned sleep is excluded from recorded totals.
Was this useful for your situation?
We add your interval to the last recorded wake time. With ranges, the earliest wake plus the shortest interval gives the earliest result; the latest wake plus the longest interval gives the latest result. Later planned naps use your assumed duration, so uncertainty can widen.
Trying to settle without sleep and not offering a nap do not reset the wake time. Unknown times remain unknown. A plan never becomes a recorded event just because its time has passed.
These calculations do not determine when a baby will sleep, recommend a nap transition, or diagnose a sleep problem. No age-based rules are approved in this version. Follow any professional care plan and seek professional advice for health concerns or persistent difficulties.
Current method: user-defined interval arithmetic, version 1. No medical review is claimed. For general sleep and care information, see American Academy of Pediatrics: baby sleep. That resource is not used to derive an individual wake interval.
If naps happen in more than one setting, keep the same meanings for wake, attempt and completed sleep. A caregiver’s planned nap time may otherwise look like an actual sleep in your home record.
Use fixed activities for genuine commitments such as pickup. These make conflicts visible without rewriting sleep. A schedule at home and a schedule elsewhere need not share identical clock times to be described accurately.
Enter what the report actually confirms. If it gives only a wake, use a wake entry. Keep pickup or travel plans as constraints, then share a snapshot that identifies estimates.
Compare bedtime after the last nap
Age is a reading guide, not a deadline for a change. General background: Nemours KidsHealth: Naps. The observation questions are this site’s editorial suggestions.
Continue to the day toolExample — nothing has been recorded. Read these structures without entering anything. No default sleep times or age recommendation are supplied.
| Step | Assumption |
|---|---|
| Wake | The same chosen starting point |
| Nap 1 | Your interval, then your assumed nap duration |
| Nap 2 | Your interval, then your assumed nap duration |
| Nap 3 | Your interval, then your assumed nap duration |
| Bedtime range | Your interval after the final assumed nap |
The nap count is a comparison option, not a recommendation to change your day.

A range of possible times. Unknown stays unknown.
Structure templates v1 · no numerical age template approved. You can also start from what happened without choosing an example.
Record what has already happened, then count only the naps you are considering for later. Planned sleep stays separate from actual sleep, including when a planned time has already passed.
A short or missed nap changes the known facts. Record that change and compare again with the settings you choose. The tool does not automatically shorten an interval or prescribe an earlier bedtime.
Different nap counts create different hypothetical structures. Comparing them does not establish readiness to drop a nap or replace a care plan. The examples remain separate from your actual records.
If you still need to fine-tune the timing between naps, open wake windows by age or go straight to the wake window calculator. If naps are falling apart during a leap, check the sleep regression checker.
No. Choose your own interval, remaining nap count and planned duration. This version has no approved numerical age examples; it compares assumptions without deciding which nap count is appropriate.
Edit the actual sleep entry, preserving unknown or estimated times, then compare again. The new comparison uses your settings and never rewrites the actual record to match a plan.
