The purpose of the study is to develop and evaluate a sleep intervention program for improving sleep and health in youth with epilepsy and their parents.

Sleep problems are more prevalent and serious in children with epilepsy whose sleep can be disrupted by seizures occurring during the night and/or during the day. Inadequate sleep has long been recognized as a trigger for seizure and poor sleep habits have been associated with unfavorable outcomes in children with epilepsy. Attention to sleep in children with epilepsy as a result is critically important for seizure control and health-related quality of life.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Children aged between 1.5 and 6 years with a confirmed diagnosis of epilepsy based on clinical and electro-encephalogram examinations.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Children born before 37 weeks gestation, children with evidence of structural brain damage, or with cerebral palsy or those who are bedridden.
