Get a special pillow case and pillow for her toddler bed. She can only use them in that bed, not in the crib. That might entice her to leave the crib!<br><b>References : </b><br> Try using it for naps at first. Get a special pillow case and pillow for her toddler bed.

Set up the toddler bed in her room next to the crib and let her play on it or do quiet time on it. My kids were much closer to 3 when I moved them since they had a better grasp on following rules by then - one of which was, do not get out of bed without mommy. <br><b>References : </b><br> My advice would be to leave her in her crib until she starts asking to get out!

Leave her door open and put a gate up. Every time she gets out of bed, put her back in bed and walk out. She will eventually get the hang of it. <br><b>References : </b><br> My advice would be to do this on the weekend, because the 1st 2 nights they do not sleep. Leave her door open and put a gate up.
