Next step question

We've been working on getting DD (2.5) to sleep in her own bed. We started by putting her mattress on the floor next to ours and moving her to it after she falls asleep. She sleeps AMAZING after we move her. The problem is she refuses to fall asleep there, she has no problem falling back asleep after potty breaks and such, but won't do it at the begining of the night. When we ask her if she wants to sleep there, she says "No big sleepy(bed)" How do we get her to fall asleep in her bed?

would laying with her while she falls asleep work?

Works in our bed but she won't even lay in her bed until after she's asleep
