“I used Cara’s program with my first baby in 2021 and it helped tremendously so I also used it with my second baby that I had this year, April 2022. I did not follow the program to a T, but I did take the bits and pieces of it that I found useful and helpful. I used it to night-wean my baby and to practice good self-soothing strategies. I love this program because Cara is so encouraging, supportive, and data-based with her teaching approach. Would highly recommend for any new mamas.”
“This was extremely helpful in providing a relief for our family while still maintaining a healthy connection. We have not been able to get past the 4am screaming wake ups - we’ve done it all and still can’t pass this hurdle.”
“Taking Cara Babies saved our lives! My first started sleeping through the night with no input from my husband or me. When our second regressed at eight months and started getting up twice a night instead of once, I knew we needed help! It took nine nights before he started sleeping through the night sporatically and the full 28 nights (okay, 26, but who's counting) for it to be solidified. It was worth every penny and worth every difficult moment. Cara walked us through every "what if" and helped us make difficult decisions very easy. (We eliminated pop-ins after the first week except for a few nights because Cara's program showed us he *could* do this. I would never have been able to do this without using the pop-ins first.) If we have another baby, I will buy the newborn class. Worth every penny!”
“Changed our lives!! Our daughter was getting up every hour for eight months and we had tried everything. Desperate was an understatement. By night 3, she was falling asleep within five min with no crying. I would recommend taking cara babies to anyone who is struggling! You will have your nights back!!”
“This plan saved our sanity! Our baby was 8 months old waking about every three hours with two bottles a night and diaper changes included . It was time to start sleeping, but we had no idea where to start! The ABC’s of sleep training did it! We are now sleeping through the night!! I was so hesitant because I didn’t want to hear my baby cry, but Cara explains everything and makes perfect sense. We feel prepared when our baby is poppin a tooth or sick. This plan works!! I highly recommend! Wish we would have done this sooner! Our family of five is functioning again because we are all well rested! Thank you!!”
“While the ABXs of sleep helped us ween our baby to one night feed, it completely ruined his naps. Before doing the ABCs of sleep, our baby could already put himself to sleep co.oletely independently for naps and bedtime. He slept until around 7:00 or 7:30 every day and tood two 1.5 hour naps on the dot. Now, he wakes up at 5:45 or 6:00 every morning and his naps are all over the place, most of them being under an hour. I've tried implementing all of the short nap suggestions on your blog. Nine of those have helped. I have tried shorting and lengthening wake windows.
I'm very disappointed that sleep training at night ruined naps. Purchasing the ABCs of sleep was a financial sacrifice for us. I do not want to spend $70 more dollars on a nap program especially since his naps were perfect before completing the ABCs of sleep.”

“The course made me feel confident I was doing the best thing for my baby AND for myself! Bedtime is now something I enjoy rather than dread and we both wake up feeling happy and rested.”
“Our second baby was still in a swaddle at 9 months and was still having 2 feeds at night. I honestly thought she would be going to college still in a swaddle. She needed one pop in our first night and since then (minus teething and sickness) has been a solid sleeper! Thank you for saving our family sanity.”
