Hi Aditi,
From what you’ve described, it does sound like she might benefit from a slightly longer wake window before that first nap.
It looks like you’re currently trying to settle her for her first nap around 8:00/8:10am. Given that she’s waking around 6:40am, I’d suggest trying to shift that first nap to around 8:30am and keeping it consistent for about three days to see how she responds.
Sometimes at this age, babies can manage a bit more awake time in the morning than we expect, especially if they seem happy and energetic during that window. Extending the wake window just a little may help her build up enough sleep pressure to settle more easily and fall asleep more quickly.
Let me know how you go.
