My two years old refused to sleep in his room by himself he is confident to sleep by himself without coddling mum. He's also very anxious being alone. How can we parents help him to be relax to sleep without someone by his side?

A couple of tactics you can try, spread out over several nights:
Put your kid to bed, say you have to leave for a bit. Come back after a little bit. Keep repeating, but be gone for slightly longer each time.
Second tactic: set up a chair in the room to sit in, but gradually move the chair farther and farther away from the bed, till you are out of the room
