Well worth the investment! We recommend Batelle sleep school to all parents we meet that are having trouble sleep training their little ones. We were absolutely at our wits’ end when we came to Batelle. Our son was waking multiple times a night and we were taking turns sleeping on the sofa to try and get a full night sleep. We honestly did not think it would work but on the first night it just clicked! I will not claim smooth sailing after that but once the principles were fully grasped by all of us, we were golden. This was the best decision we ever made for some very precious sleep:)

So Grateful
My 3 year old was in the program longer than the estimated 2 weeks and I couldn’t be happier that we got to keep the full support during this time. Deanna and Elizabeth were so encouraging and supportive during the day time calls. I needed the night time help to guide the steps for me and reassure I was properly doing everything. I 100% support my family’s decision to invest in this type of coaching and support. We used the ring camera and I personally liked having the team watch and coach through it. The hatch light is a very good visual for my son to determine times of quite and rest. I never felt like my son was left to cry it out even on his very difficult nights. As a parent I learned and practiced new ways to handle strong behaviors. My son went from taking hours to fall asleep, multiple tantrum wake ups, and very early rising to calmly falling asleep in about 30 minutes, minimal wake ups that I now know how to handle, and 8-10 hours of sleep each night. It took us 55 nights to get here, and I’m so glad we stuck it out. Thank you to everyone who calmed us over night and to the day team who never left our side during this roller coaster.

This program saved our life!
This program saved our life! I thought it couldn't be true but it truly works! Be prepared yo put in work, have minor set backs because our kids aren't robots they are humans but once you see the results it is so worth it! Life changing!

Must Try if you are having sleeping issues
The method they taught me worked! In 2 weeks, my 2 year old went from 5.30 wake up to 6.30 wake up. From two wakeups in the middle of the nights screaming to none. Most importantly, she is HAPPY in her crib and likes being put in it which is a far cry from how things were before we used their method. Great staff, super responsive and very kind / non judgmental. Was so skeptical before signing up given the cost and now I wish I did much earlier

Empowering
I came across Batelle in the middle of the night on a Google search while awake with my daughter during one of her many night time wake ups. Up to this point we had made some progress on our own by working her out from our room into her own room but then I felt stuck. She was still waking up many times, needing a bottle, needing to be held, and then usually waking up again when I put her down. After trying the “cry it out” method things got worse and my confidence in my ability to help her was weaning. I so badly wanted some direction. Anyway long story long, we found and joined Batelle and baby girl responded really well and we have been both enjoying sleeping mostly through the night so far after 6 nights in the program. My daughter hasn’t given a ton of push back but we have been very well supported and validated even when I feel like I’m asking silly questions or being too needy. I love the zoom calls where I get to meet other moms with their varying challenges and hear how the sleep experts help them navigate their individual needs. It is SUPER uplifting and very supportive. Really cool experience. The sleep experts know you by name and know your individual experiences in the program. I think it goes without saying that obviously you have to put in some work but you’re doing that anyway while trying to cope with being a parent on no sleep. If you are on the fence I recommend you try it. It’s given me peace to see my daughter trust the sleep process and be peaceful.

The best thing I’ve done for my son
Batelle was with us every step of the way on my 20 month old son’s journey to better sleep associations. I can easily say it is one of the best things I’ve ever done for him. It is not a magic pill, there is time and effort involved on the parent’s part. But the great support Batelle gives you along the way makes it a lot easier.

Batelle Sleep School changed our whole…
Batelle Sleep School changed our whole family’s lives in TWO weeks for the better! Our now two y.o. son had become totally dependent on only me to rock him to sleep every night. Going to bed was so stressful, and wake ups happened every night in 2-3 hour chunks. No one in our family was sleeping. Two weeks later, our son sleeps through the night, chooses to sleep, there is no more rocking to sleep at all, just a little singing as I turn out the light and a “night night mama” as I walk out the door. We are in a place I quite honestly thought we were years away from being.
The Batelle Team cheered us on every step of the way! When we hit a rough patch or messed up they gave us support and encouragement without judgement!
Tonight is our last night of 24/7 sleep support as I write this review. We are a bit sad that this part of the learning journey is ending, while feeling 100% confident in the new sleep skills we have all learned!
The most important thing we have seen is this remarkable growth and development in our little boy other the last two weeks! He absolutely loves going bed each night, has developed independence and confidence throughout the process of learning to choose sleep and he’s only 2!
For any family who is wondering if Batelle is worth it, it truly is. Not only is constant, restorative sleep vital for little ones’ growth and development, but mastering this skill of choosing sleep is such a confidence booster! It’s so hard to put into words how invaluable being part of this process has been. And we look forward to connecting in the future as needed! Knowing we have the Batelle team in our back pocket for the next 4 years is so reassuring!
Thanks for everything!

Batelle Babies should be the standard in sleep training
At 4 months, my daughter started occasionally sleeping through the night but we could find no consistency with this. The status quo was erratic and stressful daytime naps, endless bouncing on the yoga ball, 5 - 10 night wakings starting 45 mins after bedtime, nursing back to sleep every time, and a very stressed out, touched out, sleep deprived mom.
I read all the sleep expert blogs and articles, watched all the videos and nothing helped. Cry-it-out was struck from the options after one horrible 45-min attempt. Too harsh, too painful.
I finally decided I needed to hire a sleep consultant. Enter the Batelle Babies program. So much more than "a sleep consultant". I spoke to someone the same day who understood what I was going through and answered all my questions about the service. Within days, I was enrolled in the classes and starting to lay strong foundations for my daughter's sleep.
I started to see results with the first step. She was no longer fighting sleep at nap time and settled into a more predictable rhythm. Very encouraging.
When we started implementing the full method (which was an intense experience for the first 3 nights), everything changed. Just one month later, my 5 month old goes to sleep in her crib with no bouncing, no nursing, and usually no crying, and she stays there all night except for her scheduled feeds. The yoga ball is back to being workout equipment and not a baby sleep aid.
It's been a complete transformation. What I loved most about Batelle Babies is the ongoing 1-on-1 support available as needed via text chat or zoom calls. I always felt I was in good hands with the BB team. This should be the new standard in sleep training.
