oh what fun NOT for you at night ..... does she still fit in the bassinet in the pram?
I used to just put my ds (he is now 16 mths) in the pram when he was your dd age and let him fall asleep in there if he was clingi but needed to sleep iykwim.
It worked well and he slept well and i just moved him into the cot and 9/10 there was no waking up from pram to cot....

I did this if at 6 or so pm and he was tired and had tired signs as you have described but just refused to be alone in the room..... oh and when those toothy pegs come through they can SO upset the apple cart ....
