I'm a father of a 2 and a 1 year old. Get the child to sleep in another room. I really thought that this was going to be a problem but it really wasn't. It might take some time and a lot of patience but it's worth it.

Start off with placing your girl in her bed give her kisses and tell her goodnight and you sit next to her. Do not talk to her. Do not let her get up if she does lay her back down, repeat, repeat, repeat. Stay until she goes asleep.

Next night, same thing except sit away from her just a little bit. Do not let her up again.

Each night, repeat the same thing while you move sitting spot closer and closer to the door until you just put her down and leave the room. Should take you 4-6 nights. Each night should get better. My boy protested for about 2 hrs the first night.

Good luck
