Sleep Center

It is not unusual for children to occasionally have trouble sleeping, but in many cases, children have more frequent or longer lasting sleep problems that may require evaluation by a sleep specialist. The Sleep Center at CHOP uses a unique model of pairing a physician with a psychologist to diagnose and treat children with any type of sleep problem or sleep disorder whenever possible. Our Sleep Center includes a Sleep Clinic and several Sleep Laboratories, state-of-the-art facilities for overnight sleep studies.
