I've mostly put my boys off to bed after a breastfeed. Most of the time they were alseep and I'd just tuck them in and off to bed I go.
If they weren't asleep I'd try putting them down awake. Some night were successful and other nights weren't and I'd cuddle and rock them off to sleep if they were upset about being in the cot.
Around about 18 months I think but I'm not sure when exactly, the older boys just started wanting to go off to bed themselves. Hopefully Caleb follows the same pattern
Have you tried music for her to listen to while she settles? Sometimes when Caleb is a bit unsettled I'll try the music and after he complains a bit when I leave the room will stop and listen to it. About 5 - 10 mins later I can sneak in and turn it off because he is fast asleep.
