Seattle Children’s Hospital
Sleep Center

Seattle Children’s has the only sleep center in the region dedicated to caring for babies, children and teens. We perform all our sleep studies in a lab specially designed to accommodate children. Our facility is located within the Bellevue Clinic. We have designed the lab so that you or another adult family member has a place to stay with your child during the overnight sleep test.

In addition to doctors and nurses who specialize in caring for young people, our team includes registered polysomnographic technologists who monitor and interpret children's sleep studies. We work closely with specialists in other Children's clinics, including Pulmonary Medicine, Otolaryngology and Behavioral Medicine, to provide complete care for your child and compassionate support for your family.
