Objective: To investigate the relationship between maternal sleep quality and child neuropsychomotor development through sleep and development scales. Method: This is a cross-sectional study on a probabilistic sample. One hundred twenty-one mothers and 121 children from two months to one year of age monitored at a private pediatric institution were recruited. The data collection was divided into two stages. The first stage is for the mothers to answer a semi-structured form using Google Forms. There were questions about their socioeconomic status and items related to the perinatal situation. The second stage comprised assessing the children's neuropsychomotor development. The criteria for evaluating maternal sleep quality and its relationship with child development were evaluated in mothers and children using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the Denver Developmental Screening Test, respectively. Crude and adjusted binary logistic regression models were used to assess possible associations between maternal sleep quality and neuropsychomotor development components. Results: A total of 71.1% of mothers had poor sleep quality, and 96.6% of the children had normal neuropsychomotor development. The authors did not observe statistical significance for the association between the poor quality of maternal sleep and the neuropsychomotor development of the children in the personal-social (p = 0.00), gross motor (p = 0.36), fine motor and adaptive (p = 0.0), and language (p = 0.36) domains. Conclusion: Most mothers are bad sleepers. However, this study did not support the influence of maternal sleep quality on child neuropsychomotor development.
