We are very lucky that our lovely little baby is a great sleeper. She's been grizzling in the evenings so we've started putting her upstairs at 6.30/7pm to sleep until we go to bed at 9.30/10pm and so far so good, she's still waking only once over night and then up at 6-7am
At the moment I just let her nap during the day when she wants to. She's moderately reliable, she might have a very short nap while in the pram on a dog walk in the morning and then she will probably go to sleep around 3 / 3.30pm for a couple of hours - either she'll crash out in the car and stay asleep when we get home, or she'll fall asleep while we're out in the pram, or maybe when we're having a cuddle on the sofa. I have just let her do her thing, although I do put her in her cot when she is asleep so she associates it with sleep.
I have no idea whether she's sleeping enough in the day, and if it even matters - do we need to schedule her naps and/or put her to bed to nap, or is it ok during the day to just let her do what she wants?
