Brief Summary

Conduct Sleep Health Literacy RCT- Using a stepped wedge randomized design, investigators will enroll 540 parent-child dyads from 7 Head Start agencies in New York. Agencies cross-over from control to intervention. Outcomes are a) child sleep duration, b) parent knowledge, attitudes, self-efficacy and behavior, c) child sleep difficulty and d) classroom climate. Invesetigators will compare intervention vs. control data across agencies and pre/post data within agency, with parental health literacy as a moderator. Investigators will collect process and fidelity data.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Child Sleep Duration: Intervention vs. Control (Total)

    The primary outcome is differences between Intervention vs. Control periods (per stepped wedge design) weeknight sleep: Sunday-Thursday bedtimes and Monday-Friday wake-times. Agency staff will distribute and collect sleep logs from parent participants at 5 points: 1 week pre/post the 2 "cross-overs" and at final follow-up. Analyses will be based upon weeknight (Sun-Thurs) sleep duration from sleep logs, assessed in minutes. Hypothesis: longer sleep duration for Intervention vs. Control periods

    9 months

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Child Sleep Duration: >30 Minutes

    9 months

  • Child sleep difficulties

    12 months

  • Parent KASB (Knowledge/Attitudes/Self-Efficacy/Beliefs)

    12 months

  • Child Sleep Duration: 1 Year Follow-Up

    12 months

  • Classroom Climate

    9 months

Study Arms (2)

Sleep Health Interventions

EXPERIMENTAL

Sleep Health Interventions: Parents- a) invited to 1 hour workshop about healthy sleep, b) invited to attend a brief (app. 20 minute) Sleep Health Flipchart education either 1-on-1 or in a small group. Children: exposed to 2 week 40min/day healthy sleep curriculum in the classroom.Agency: Video and print material

Other: Sleep Health Education

Control Period

NO INTERVENTION

No Intervention, but data collection

Interventions

Parents and children receive sleep health education
