Newborn Sleep Guide

The guide simplifies sleep without oversimplifying the science, giving you clear, step-by-step guidance that's easy to follow.

Most parents read it in one sitting and start implementing the tips the same day. Then come back to the chapters they need as different questions arise.

The audiobook is around 90 minutes long and is designed to complement the written guide, making it easy to learn on the go and quickly revisit specific topics whenever you need them.

You'll learn what biologically drives newborn sleep, so you can support and shape great sleep in a way that feels calm, connected, and right from the very beginning.

The guide is designed to support you from birth, helping you feel confident about sleep right from the start. It can be introduced at any point during the first three months.

If your baby is already close to 3 months old, our Complete Guides Bundle is the best value option.

Routines are introduced from around 3-6 weeks, with clear guidance on wake windows and nap timing that grows with your baby.

This guide works whether you're breastfeeding, bottle-feeding or doing a mix of both. Many of our amazing reviews are from exclusively breastfeeding mothers.

Our routines help you balance feeds throughout the day to better shape sleep, while always encouraging you to respond to your baby's hunger cues. You'll never be asked to stretch feeds to long intervals unlike some other approaches you may have come across.

The routines take the guesswork out of your day, helping you balance feeds and naps in a way that naturally supports longer nights, with clear guidance on wake windows and nap timing as your baby grows.

You'll find flexible options if you prefer to go with the flow, and more detailed timing guidance for parents who like to know exactly what to aim for.

We encourage you to get out of the house and enjoy life with your baby, with guidance for naps on the go and practical tips for when things don't go to plan, so you'll never feel homebound.

Strong sleep foundations, routines, and settling strategies can be a powerful support alongside the medical care you're already following. Better sleep has been shown to help ease reflux symptoms over time, and many families notice a real difference once good foundations are in place.

Please note this guide does not contain medical advice. We always recommend working with your medical team for treatment specific to your baby's needs.
