Sleep training with Nana's Nest starts with listening — to your baby's sleep history, your goals, and what you're and aren't comfortable trying. From there, our certified pediatric sleep consultants build a written, step-by-step plan and stay with you through every night of it.
Our Approach
We favor gentle, responsive methods over rigid extinction-based ones, but every plan is genuinely customized — not a template with your baby's name filled in. If you're weighing your options, our guide to gentle sleep training methods, explained is a good place to start.
Ages & Stages We Support
- Newborn Sleep Shaping (0–4 months) — healthy habits and realistic expectations, no formal "training" yet
- Sleep Training (4–18 months) — teaching independent, self-settled sleep
- Toddler Transitions (18 months–4 years) — crib-to-bed moves, nap changes, regressions
- Twins & Multiples — coordinated plans for shared rooms and staggered schedules
What's Included
- An in-depth intake & sleep assessment
- A personalized, written sleep plan
- Nightly text and phone support during the first 1–2 weeks
- In-home or virtual consultations, whichever fits your family
- Follow-up check-ins as new challenges come up
Common Challenges We Help With
The 4-month sleep regression, frequent night waking, early-morning waking, nap refusal, the crib-to-bed transition, night weaning, and getting back on track after travel or a schedule disruption.
