I'm a new parent and would like to know what I should do to help my baby sleep better.

1. Establish a consistent bedtime routine that includes winding down with your baby, dimming the lights, and singing or talking softly.
2. Try swaddling or rocking your baby to help them relax before bed.
3. Avoid caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, and large meals late at night.
4. If necessary, use white noise such as a fan or sound machine to drown out any distracting noises in the environment.
5. Create a comfortable sleeping space for your baby by using sheets that are suitable for their age and temperature.
