•We aim to recruit up to 30 participants who meet the following inclusion criteria: (1) a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder; (2) between 2 and 18 years of age; (3) parent-reported sleep problems (e.g., sleep onset delay, night wakings); and (4) absence of a medical condition or medication use that may be a contra-indicator for behavioural intervention. Participants will be excluded from this study if they have a co-occurring medical condition that may interfere with their sleep (e.g., obstructive sleep apnea; nocturnal seizure disorder, gastrointestinal problems) that are not effectively managed or are taking medications that may interfere with sleep (e.g., some stimulant medications). This will be determined in consultation with the child’s medical doctor (e.g., GP or paediatrician). The research team has established channels for referrals based upon her current research programmes (e.g., The Good Nights Programme).
