You may be experiencing many broken night's sleep due to toddler night-time sleeping disturbances which may happen from time to time for a variety of different reasons.
There are many strategies a parent can put in place to help their toddler to sleep. For example early morning sunlight or street lights may brighten your child's room and cause early morning wakening. If this is the case the problem can be solved by putting up a black-out blind.

This was a problem my son had, he use to tell me that his room was too bright and he couldn't get to sleep or he would awaken too early. The black-out blind was a wonderful help, you can get these from your local curtain store.
Also it is important to make your child's bedroom inviting, something that as parents we try hard to do. Many parents do, in act, decorate their child's room with welcoming colours and their toddler's favourite Disney patterns or other favourite pictures. A good idea may be to position their favourite toys within view of their bed which will make it more inviting.
If your child sees his favourite toys when he goes to sleep or wakes up this will provide reassurance for him.
In fact a comfort soft toy could provide strong reassurance for your child. When my daughter was about 3 months old I put a little soft toy beside her that was always there when she woke up.
This became her beloved toy and she took it everywhere with her. Even as a teenager she still has parts of that soft toy left (an arm and leg) that she simply loves the smell of. A comfort indeed!
To help with the transition to a toddler bed that your child will enjoy, which has in fact solved many a sleeping problem look at the above link at this could well help in your time of need.
