“I’ve been following TCB on social media ever since I found out I was pregnant with our first child, and a friend with a very well-adjusted, good sleeping 2 year old recommended her. Several months later I met another mom with a very well-adjust, good sleeping 3 year old who also recommended TCB .. seems to be a common thread. I took the first class 6 weeks before my due date, and now have a fabulous 4 week old! Cara has great, easy to apply, & thoughtful methods that work .. and she communicates & demonstrates them very effectively. Having used them from day 1, my husband & I feel confident we are setting a good foundation for the future and gives us (non-rigid) routine to the day so we can plan accordingly. I think in a nutshell it would best be described as newborn skills with intention, not just trying everything in the book & seeing what sticks - which can be very frustrating with a screaming baby. Highly recommend - money well spent!”

“This has been incredible! I was having pretty significant PPD and this helped me so much. It helped to have a general idea of what to do and a loose schedule to follow. It also made me feel good that I was reassured it’ll never be perfect and that’s ok. When my baby cried in the middle of the night it helped to have structure and routine for what to do. Now my baby is 9 weeks old and sleeps 7-9 hours every night! It has been a game changer for my mental health to be on a routine and getting more sleep myself. Thank you!!”
“While I understand the intent of this program, I didn't learn anything new in here that I didn't get from reading Dr.Karp's book as this program also just uses the 5 S's (you can easily YouTube this). If I were to do it all again, I would save my money.”

“This is a wonderful course! We took the ABCs of sleep with our daughter and I knew if we had another baby I would want to take the Newborn class. We just our baby boy 9 days ago and we have been implementing this class from day one. It’s so clear and helpful to know how long to keep the baby awake and when to put him down for a nap. I also love Cara’s encouraging heart and how she teaches the material. She also includes so much extra support and information -not just sleep. I highly recommend this class for any parent of a newborn no matter how many kids you’ve had before! So great.”
“I purchased the newborn class with my 3rd baby! I wish I had known about Cara with my other twos. So much good information. And most importantly- she gives you the TOOLS so you know how to handle different situations. Thank you!! Just purchased the toddler class too :)”
“Such valuable information - I am a first time parent and my partner & I have benefited SO much from the content of this course! Our daughter is sleeping really well and we feel much more equipped with how to understand her needs. The best part of this course is the tone. I normally dislike teaching directed towards 'mamas' or parents because the rhetoric and tone feels cheesy, fake, or judgmental. Cara is SO sweet, hospitable, and generous in the way she encourages and teaches parents.”
“I have a bit of a mixed review.
The content itself was good. Cara does a great job at explaining things and seems like a great, kind and caring person. There’s no judgment with the course which is great. Content is very straight forward and professional. In that aspect I give it 5 stars.
In our personal journey, I’d give 2 stars simply because we tried and tried and nothing she shared really seemed to work (even the videos specifically made for if you’re still struggling). Our baby is a bit more complicated - refuses bottles and pacifiers, won’t even suck on my finger, ONLY will accept nursing. She also deals with reflux. So with everything combined, several aspects of the TCB method didn’t work for us and the other parts we had already been doing or already knew about so it wasn’t new information for us.
So if you have a complicated baby, it may not be worth your money. If your baby does fine with a pacifier and/or doesn’t have reflux (I think our baby struggle with both was a big hinderance) it may be worth a shot.
We are still struggling hard over here, so in our specific case I’m not sure it was worth the money and time we poured into it. I do know others though who had a lot of success with the course which is why we purchased it in the first place.”
