The support that Batelle offered was well worth the investment. Our family was able to transition our toddler from cosleeping and nursing on demand at night, to sleeping in his own room and fully night weaned within 2 weeks. We still get pushback sometimes, but now have the confidence to handle it in a supportive way that we feel matches our parenting values. The professional and peer support from Batelle for the parents was as valuable as the sleep instruction.

If you can afford this program- do it
If you can afford this program- do it. I genuinely didn’t think that my child would transition from using me as a human pacifier and restlessly sleeping in our bed to first night sleeping in her crib for practically the entire night. This program is thoughtful, efficient, compassionate, and effective. It has revolutionized how I plan to support my child through the other skills she will eventually learn. The philosophy and support with Batelle is remarkable. My husband was firmly against attempting any sort of program believing that they were all glorified cry-it-out methods. He now claims this is the best investment we have ever made. I look forward to utilizing their continued support as we transition time zones, homes, beds, etc. Very grateful to Batelle.

Gracious, supportive parent coaching!
The team at Batelle has been an absolute delight to work with. Our 20 month old had been waking every night for about 5 months straight demanding a bottle and cosleeping, but within literal days, the wonderful team at Batelle coached us into some very solid practices and we got our little one sleeping through the night. She’s now a very consistent sleeper - naps and overnight - and we even dropped the bottle from our routine entirely (much needed but put off for fear of regression).
Every interaction we’ve had has been loving, compassionate, insightful, educational, and above all and most appreciated, reassuring. This team has perfected parent coaching which is so hard to come by in a world just inundated with opinions.
We cannot thank this team enough. Anyone who has interacted with us, you have our deepest gratitude. Thank you, thank you!

Amazing results! And not just for babies.
Batelle has given our family so much! Apart from the obvious of a great outcome - better sleep and so much more rest - we have gained peace in the mornings and evenings, better moods all around, and the confidence to handle all things sleep related. Our daughter is older than the average, just over 3 years old, but not only did Batelle provide support and appropriate techniques for her age, I felt confidence choosing them because of the continued support for several more years. Our daughter went from taking nearly an hour to go to sleep (and only with someone lying next to her until she was asleep), waking and coming down to our room several times a night, only going back to sleep in our bed or with me in her bed, and getting up at 5am….. to going to sleep in just a couple minutes each night, completely on her own, and sleeping through the night until her light goes off at 6am! It felt like a too good to be true miracle at first, but has consisted. And whenever we have had questions, the Batelle team has been right there all along the way! The chat support is great, and the calls were amazing. They answered all our questions patiently, and actually gave answers, not just “well it could go either way” vague responses. They were positive and proactive and worked with us through an illness and company visiting to allow us to stay on a timeline that worked for us throughout the “school” portion of the course. Truly amazing. Thank you Batelle!

Get some sleep parents…start today
I am very happy with my sleep school experience. I honestly would recommend this program to anyone. I had doubts but my son literally went from an hour bed time needing to be patted to sleep to falling asleep 100% independently in one month. I’m still so amazed that it’s even possible I wish I did it sooner.
The only negative I would say is I feel like some of the sleep experts aren’t as knowledgeable as others so sometimes you ask a question and it’s like a generic answer but I understand it can be hard from them to know the answer to every single sleep situation.

We LOVE Batelle Babies
We LOVE Batelle Babies! Within the first three weeks of sleep school we were putting our 4 month old down awake and getting excellent results. They helped us transfer him out of his snoo into his crib in his own room into a sleep sack and no more snoo swaddle! And today he just went down for his first nap awake and slept one hour! Kim and Lucie are experts and the best cheerleaders a new mom or dad could have! I think everyone should put Batelle Babies sleep school on their registries.
Thank god we found them and we found them early. Life hasn’t gotten so much better since our very first conversation with Batelle team. Thank you so so much!!!!! Can’t wait to keep seeing results because of our sons new found skill!

Total and complete success.
We turned to Batelle in total desperation.
Our son had once been an amazing sleeper. But suddenly when he turned 3 he started waking up in a panic every night after only a couple hours of sleep. We tried everything but nothing could get him to calm down except letting him sleep in our bed.
We thought it would pass. But two years later he’s 5 and in our bed every night.
So when I read about Batelle I desperately wanted to believe it would work but secretly thought our 5 year old was simply too accustomed to sleeping in our bed. And simply too frightened to sleep on his own. It was too late and he was too old.
Eventually, after his little brother began to follow him into our bed, we signed up and figured might as well give it a shot before total surrender to sleeping every night with two kids in our bed kicking and squirming.
Right off the bat I was skeptical. I attended the zooms thinking “no way will this work with my kid.” But Batelle did an amazing job very politely and persistently nudging me to engage and “trust in the process” even as I balked about some of the specifics: “a MANTRA played on repeat? Are you kidding me?” In the softest and gentlest possible way, they got me onboard and got me focused.
But very, very quickly we saw progress. And after two weeks, a giant leap. And now: total and complete success.
Our son sleeps all night through the night *every* night in his own bed after *two years* (ages 3-5) of running — in a total panic — into our bed every single night without fail.
My wife and I feel like we have our lives back. I can’t thank Batelle enough. Everyone we spoke to on zoom was incredibly attentive and incredibly professional, I have no idea how the company found these people. But I’m so glad they did.
Money extremely well spent. Trust the process.

Imagine signing up for this course as…
Imagine signing up for this course as an exhausted parent who is having trouble getting any sleep. You sign up for this hoping for a lifeline. You force yourself out of bed for a zoom consultation with Batelle because you didn't get any sleep yet again. Only you are to be completely ghosted with no way to contact them to say hey are you going to log on? The consultation is booked with Calendly, so really there's no excuse. Now Batelle has me even more sleep deprived than before. What a complete waste.

Hi Emily, I’m so sorry to hear about the mix up. It’s seems that we updated the link (due to some of the team off around Christmas) but communications didn’t get through sufficiently and we didn’t follow up further. I hear you now have another initial consultation booked with Sima on Friday. If you have any issues you can email me directly on [email protected] or Sima on [email protected]. I wish you all the best with your little ones sleep, whether you choose to sign up for the program or not.
