Hi petter,
Welcome to HCM.
If the child is otherwise healthy, you need not worry at all. Let the child sleep whenever she wants and do not try to use any sedatives to put her to sleep. It is absolutely unnecessary and not recommended.
Provide enough toys for the child to play with. Children sleep when their tummy is full and they are exhausted from playing.
You could of course tell you child some bed time stories so that she has pleasant dreams. Do not tell your kids stories which scare them.
