Are you having difficulties getting your child to go to bed when they are used to falling asleep around you ?
When my child got used to sleeping around me she used to fall asleep in the living room with a blanket and juice.In the end i had enough 
and started lying on her bed with her until she fell asleep.
A few days later i would get on the floor and lye down there until she fell asleep.
Then i put a special chair in her room it was my chair and only i was allowed to sit on it and i put this nxt to her bed.
A few days later i moved the chair to her side of the door i explained to her i would be staying right nxt to the door and make sure they know your wont be going anywhere.
A few days later i sat on the outside of her door on the chair before leaving the child in bed alone you need secure them a bit by letting them know you will be right outside their door if they want you or feel scared you just need to shout mummy/dadddy and at first they may call but they will be in their own bed going to sleep by theirself .
