Brief Summary: The goal of this study is to compare two different approaches to help families with children 6-11 years enhance nighttime sleep: 1) working one-on-one with a nurse to learn effective behavioral strategies to try to improve children's sleep or 2) receiving education on a good night's sleep and its benefits. Participating families will meet with a nurse 6 times or receive 6 educational handouts. Participating families will also complete three assessments (start of the study, 2 months and 6 months) during which study questionnaires will be completed, participating children will wear devices that assess sleep and physical activity, participating families will report on what the child ate on two separate days and will be measured for height and weight.
Detailed Description: The present study is assessing the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a brief behavioral intervention to enhance children's sleep and prevent development of obesity. Fifty short sleeping (\< 9 hours/night) children 6-11 years old who are primarily AA/Black and from lower socioeconomic backgrounds will be enrolled into a 6-month study. Children will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 conditions: 1) optimize sleep primary care (OSPC; behavioral intervention to enhance sleep duration delivered by a nurse in primary care) or 2) enhanced usual care (EUC; usual care plus sleep education). All children will receive standard pediatric care. Families randomized to OSPC will receive a four-session intervention (two zoom-delivered sessions and two brief phone follow-ups) over the first two months with two additional phone follow-ups during maintenance (months 2-6). Families randomized to EUC will receive sleep education that is delivered at the same points of contact as OSPC sessions. At baseline, end of treatment (2 months), and 6 months, the following will be measured from a Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, Maintenance (RE-AIM) perspective: reach (e.g., enrollment), adoption (e.g., pediatric provider engagement), implementation (e.g., session attendance, treatment fidelity), maintenance (e.g., retention), and preliminary effectiveness (e.g., changes in sleep duration (actigraphy), eating behaviors (24-hour dietary recalls), physical activity (accelerometry), and anthropometrics (measured height and weight).
