“Cara makes sleep training so achievable and no pressure. I’ve seen progress every day with naps and she gets good sleep at night. I love how this is judgment-free but with good structure. Well worth it!”
“This program helped my family immensely. Our 5month old went from sleeping 5hr stretches to waking up every 45min-2hr and no matter what we did it never got better. UNTIL CARA! By night 4 of this program our babe was sleeping from 8pm-8am with minimal wake ups. And now on day 7 she is sleeping all through the night in her own room! Just for reference, we were co-sleeping, breastfeed and contact nap. Our baby seems happier and still loves to cuddle. We still contact mostly by choice and still are breastfeeding. I am so grateful for this program as I feel it has given us our mental well-being back.”
“Good stuff! I’d pay this much for a new mattress or memory foam topper for better sleep so I’d pay this much for this course. That’s how I reasoned it with my hubby.
I did the 5-24 month sleep course and the 0-5 month course with my second son. I wish I would have know this stuff with my first. My first is now 4 and still not the best sleeper. My second so far has been an angel sleeper. Night and day difference. The 0-5 month course helped lay a good foundation and give my baby some cues to expect so transitioning to the 5-24 month cues were not as problematic. I started the 5-24 month night sleep training at 6 months. I’m glad we didn’t wait any longer bc he went through a lot in a short amount of time that month and a half following (got his first 4 teeth, got 6 month shots, learned to crawl, pull up and take first steps with assistance). We had to pause and go off course a little but we got through it very well since we had a good foundation and training to fall back on. That way when “this” happened I knew what I needed to do. Instead of wondering what I need to do in the moment. I do recommend watching the videos all the way through BEFORE beginning and to watch them when you’re fully awake. That way if it’s the middle of the night and you need an answer to a question quickly in between pop ins you know exactly where to go in a video to quickly get that answer. Luckily I’m a stay at home mom now with my second child and I wasn’t with my first. That makes learning and applying the content easier since it’s more of a focus and not something I’m half way commit to bc of other priorities in life like a job pulling attention away. This also makes for daytime nap routines to be a priority which lends itself to making night time sleep so much better too! Thank you Cara and team.”
“I purchased her newborn class and then this one. On the second night, we only had one pop-in and by the third night, baby was sleeping through the night. I knew baby was waking out of habit and not hunger, so I knew it was the right time to start sleep training. We now have an excellent 6 month old sleeper, who sleeps on average 11 hours a night, thanks to taking cara babies.”
“i think the content would be helpful but it is not delivered in a manner that you can digest and reference easily/quickly. The content is all video recordings. I do not have time to sit and watch all of them. I need content via quick short bullets that i can pull and reference quickly between diaper changes, crying etc. Need something to the point that i can apply immediately. So we spent all this money & havnt really used it because it’s not accessible in a way that fits with a parent schedule who is sleep deprived w/limited time. I also do not see an app. for the material. It is a pain to go to a website, log in etc. Not user friendly.”
Sorry to hear that a video course wasn't a great option for your lifestyle. Please know that we have a 30-day money-back guarantee if the class isn't a good fit for you. You can email info@takingcarababies.com for help with that.
“Total believers, now! I admit - we really did not want to spend the money to do sleep training. We felt our son would eventually figure it out (he was just shy of 5 months), felt it was too big of an expense on an already tight money situation, and felt it would be a horrible process. 5 nights later, after our son was completely weaned from night feedings and sleeping through the night with no crying, my husband said, “I feel like I could do a testimonial for this course!” I would pay that money times over to guarantee the sleep we are now getting on a consistent basis. There have been some “bumps in the road”, as Cara calls them (we traveled, he got sick, etc.) but consistently using the techniques we learned helps our son bounce back to being a great sleeper within a few days! It’s amazing! We are better parents to him and he is a happier baby, getting the sleep he needs to grow and develop well! We are a very happy family; thank you!”
“This review is for the ABCs of Sleep portion- very much looking forward to doing the nap class soon! I started the 14 day program once my daughter was six months old, I was transitioning out of sleeping in the nursery and we were finally going to be home for two weeks straight. Night one was hard for baby and me but I knew Cara said to say consistent and that we were learning new skills. Night two was a bit better and night three Helen amazed me by sleeping from 8pm-7:30am! She's been consistently 10-12 hours a night since and settles quickly once I say goodnight at the end of our routine (I do dream feed still). This has been such a gamechanger for us and allows me to be more present with her during her wake time as I'm able to get more work and household tasks done in the evening. I had partially resisted any sleep training before, outside of having our getting ready for bed routine, because of the tears, but this truly was just two nights of on/off tears at times and that's been it. She's still as loving and connected as ever and now we are both getting the sleep we need! Highly recommend and will be using for baby #2!”
