## Description

You can use this MCP to get reliable sleep data for children without digging through medical manuals. It follows American Academy of Pediatrics standards to provide specific sleep targets based on a child's age and activity level. Instead of guessing, you can ask your AI client to calculate a full 24-hour sleep budget or figure out exactly when a toddler should nap to avoid overtiredness. It handles the math for bedtime onset and daytime rest, making it easy to build consistent routines. Whether you are managing a household or working in childcare, this tool gives you the specific numbers you need to keep sleep schedules on track.
