My 2.5 year old won't go to bed
I overcame this with YouTube twinkle twinkle little star, and usually one other that I start playing with them in the bed; gets them comfortable. Then I’ll end the videos and if necessary lay on the floor beside the kid bed.
Some of the kids needed us to stay until they fall asleep then the inevitable sneak crawl out of the room, others just needed a few minutes of quiet and then were fine with goodnight and shut the door.
Unfortunately I find this makes me super tired, so that’s good or bad depending on your perspective.
