Kids need good quality sleep to keep up with the demands of learning and play. Poor quality sleep and sleep disruptions can cause children to have difficulty staying awake, focusing, learning and controlling their emotions.

Through comprehensive evaluation and diagnosis, our WakeMed Pediatric Sleep Medicine team collaborates to help parents figure out the reasons behind the most puzzling sleep disorders, so children can receive the care they need and get back to sleep.

Notice: At this time, WakeMed Children’s – Pediatric & Sleep Medicine is not accepting new sleep medicine referrals. We look to resume these services in the future. Thank you for your patience.
