My baby is almost two years old (just under two months away). Do you wake your little ones in the morning or let them sleep in? How do you handle naps, do you make them shorter? And what time do they go to bed at night? I don't wake mine and I feel bad about it, for both of us. But lately, we've been going down for naps later, and consequently, bedtime has shifted later too, barely making it by 10 PM. Sometimes she's a bit out of it.
Please share some ideas for a hot main dish to cook for the family. Thank you in advance.

I'm not waking her up. Let her sleep. She'll have plenty of time to live by a strict schedule with early mornings later. She wakes up around 11 am, and goes to bed around 11 pm. The last thing I need is to be jumping around at 7 am while on maternity leave.

There's no strict schedule, but bedtime is as usual in the evening.

I never wake any of my kids up.
My daughter is 1.8 years old and sleeps as much as she wants. Sometimes 8 am, sometimes until 11 am)
If she wakes up at 11 am, I let her nap for an hour (usually while I pick up the older ones and take them to their activities, then I wake her up).
If she wakes up at 8 am, she goes down for her nap at 1 pm and sleeps for 2-3 hours (I don't wake her), I only wake her if she sleeps for about 4 hours)

We have a routine, so yes, if it goes too far out of bounds, I'll wake her up. I might let her sleep an extra half hour at most, but that rarely happens since we've had a routine since birth and my daughter wakes up right on schedule herself.

I've never woken anyone up. I believe the body should sleep as much as it needs and wake up on its own. My kids haven't napped during the day since they were 2 years old.

I used to wake her up at exactly that age, yes, because routine was important. If she woke up later, she couldn't go down for her nap, which meant tantrums all day were guaranteed. She couldn't make it to nighttime sleep peacefully.
Now, if she doesn't have to go to kindergarten, she wakes up whenever she wants.

No, on the contrary, I try to let her sleep, but since the boys are getting ready for school and make some noise, she wakes up more often. Nap around 4 PM, bedtime around 10 PM

We always slept in as much as we wanted in the mornings. But by 2.5 years old, my little one already dropped their daytime nap and just slept 12 hours from 10 PM to 10 AM.
