有“利于睡眠,促进发育”的功效

equity此处的意思大致上相当于“价值”,与前面的内容联系起来,就是说,它在“睡得香、长得好”方面的作用,已得到专业证明,非常可信。整句可拆开后重新组合翻译,不必拘泥于原文结构。

睡眠/發展平衡

I believe this relates to Pampers' "Sleep Like a Baby" Campaign.

The purpose of this campaign is to let visitors experience how a baby uses sleep to rest and learn, seeing, feeling and hearing the process for themselves.

The term "sleep/development equity", I believe, may be an index to evaluate the degree of a babay's balance of sleep and development.

Key findings from the Pampers Baby & Sleep Development Survey

In view of Jianming's suggestion, I propose another possible answer "睡眠/發育平衡 ".

In fact, the term "equity" may also mean "平等". But I cannot associate "平等" with "sleep and development".

On the other hand, for "health/development equity" (as shown below), "平等" may be used.

The team will conduct 5-10 in-depth interviews with key decision makers in government and civil society in Canada and South Africa to complement the archival research and e-dialogues, and will begin examining the institutional and process-related obstacles and facilitating factors to fulfilling commitments made by G7/G8 leaders on health/development equity.

Peer comment(s):

agree Jason Ma : In this context, could it possibly mean "发育“instead of "发展“? However, I would not stick to "发育" if "发展" means **grow gradually or become mature** in Lao's Chinese speaking community.

Thanks! "发展“ means "growth and maturation".  
neutral Jianming Sun : Perhaps your Chinese is a little different from ours. Here (Mainland) "发育“ should be definitely used instead in this context. Thank you! As I might know Developmental biology is also called “發育生物學” in Taiwan. :)

I incorporated your suggestion into my answer. Thanks! I would say "兒童發展" for "child development" instead of ""兒童發育". A baby's sleep stages is considered a baby's developmental phase. So, "发展“ is used instead.
