Big Girl Bed: Many toddlers get out of their bed for numerous reasons but continued redirection back to her bed will decrease these night time escapes. Letting her sleep with a favorite blanket or doll may help with the nighttime awakenings. Putting her back in the crib at this time may be more dangerous. But you may want to look into bed rails for toddler beds.

Reward for staying: Such activity is expected as should be your response. Put her back in bed. Let her know through word and action that you will leave the door to her room open if she stays in her room, but close it if she leaves. Kids want that connection the open door brings.I don't care if they stay in bed, just staying in the room will do. Late at night you can open the door after she's asleep as a reward.
