Every child has a different plan, which adapts over time as we learn more about how a child is responding. 

Step 1: Get a personalized plan built on our diagnosis. This plan is based on your child’s age, sleep issues, any medical considerations, and temperament. It is further tailored to your goals and lifestyle to fit your family on a day-to-day basis.

Step 2: Get unlimited daytime coaching & feedback. You will work through your plan with our experts supporting step-by-step. Adaptions are made as you go through, as we learn what is working best for you and your child.

Step 3: Real-time coaching for bedtimes & wake-ups as needed. You have access to in-the-moment coaching so that you never have a question unanswered. This also helps us adapt your plan live as we learn more about how your child responds. 

Step 4: Get proactive guidance going forwards and once you have reached your initial goals. We know that things change. But, your child’s great sleep doesn’t have to. We’ll help navigate developmental leaps & regressions, moving house, sickness, starting daycare – you name it. 

Step 5: Get subsequent assessments & coaching as needed. If you fall off course, we’ll get you back on track. Think of this as sleep insurance for the next 5 years. We have you covered.

No. Cry-it-out is unfortunately not very effective – especially over time. Both cry-it-out and Ferber methods focus on training a child to change their habits – rather than addressing the underlying reasons of why your child may have difficulty sleeping: the need to feel safe. Unlike cry-it-out methods, a parental response is imperative to the success of our method, requiring a caregiver to attune to their child’s needs in an engaged and supportive way. 

Getting great sleep is not magic.

For the vast majority of children, bedtimes issues are behavioural rather than biological. Our goal bedtime a positive experience of connection before you say goodnight.

Similarly, the secret to a full night’s sleep is about creating the right sleep environment – for your child so that they no longer feel the need to wake up and seek reassurance – they trust that you are watching over them and they are safe.  

Our guarantees are simple:

1. Have effortless bedtimes – 5 minutes or less (should you choose)
2. Sleep through the night
3. Our approach is non cry-it-out
4. You have access to experts for up to 5 years 

If we haven’t been able to achieve these milestones, we’ll give you the option to receive a full refund or extend the coaching and support until your you reach your goals. The choice is yours.

To be eligible for the full refund, you need to complete all 10 steps. This applies whether you do your plan at the recommended pace or opt for a slower one. Please note you can’t request a refund more than 60 days after purchasing Sleep School.

We have a 97% success rate amongst graduates. But it does require your effort and participation. If you for any reason need to cancel before completing the 10 steps, a $500 cancelation fee will apply. Please note you can’t request a cancellation more than 60 days after purchasing Sleep School.

Children with sensory processing disorders or ADHD? Absolutely. We have great success with our families who come for help. 

Children who are teething or going through a regression? Yes, we will adapt your plan accordingly to make allowances for these situations. It will likely take a bit longer, but you can certainly get to the results. 

Multiple children /twins? Yes, it does. However, we do advise you to either have two caregivers carrying out Sleep School, or to put one child through the program after the other.

Moms who are breastfeeding? Absolutely. We are breastfeeding and attachment-parenting friendly. We’ll work with you to ensure you’re still able to breastfeed in any capacity you seek, and we’ll help you wean your child at night if appropriate/desired. If your child still requires a night feed, we’ll structure your program to make allowances for this.

Co-sleeping? Co-sleeping is used to describe both bed-sharing and room-sharing:

• Room-sharing is fully supported by Batelle’s method.
• Bed-sharing however, is against AAP guidelines for sleep safety. So while we respect this as a cultural and family lifestyle choice, the method will not be helpful fro families who want to continue bed-sharing. If you want to transition your child to their own bed, we’d be happy to provide guidance. 

We are a currently in the (long!) process of being awarded FDA approval. Batelle is a fully accredited Better Business Bureau member.
