Batelle Sleep SchoolReviews of batelle.com

I am the kind of mom who questions the “Too good to be true” statements made by promising sleep within 5 min, I mean how can a stranger tell me how to put my baby to sleep when I know her best. Well I’m here to tell you they CAN and they DID!!!! I actually put off starting sleep school 3x for various reasons, only 1 was valid. I didn’t trust myself to do it right or that my daughter would actually benefit from the program, but I gave it a go. Now it is WORK and you will feel discouraged, but keep telling yourself it’s a learning experience and it will benefit your child in the end. We finished the course on time and Madelyn is continuing to CHOOSE sleep on her own and sleeps 11-12 hrs uninterrupted every night. If your having any doubts DON’T, it’s worth more than the time and money spent to be given the gift of sleep for both of you. I can’t thank the entire Batelle team enough!!

I cannot recommend Batelle enough!! I had a 13 month old who was co-sleeping, waking to eat every 1.5 hours, and would take random naps each day. After the first night of sleep school and following the methods she was able to drop all night feeds. By the 2nd night she was sleeping through the night with minimal wake-ups and was self- soothing to sleep! Words cannot describe how great it feels to be sleeping at night AND finally having a peace of mind that my daughter is getting the sleep she needs and I’m not totally failing as a parent. I would 100% recommend this sleep school to everyone! Even my family who were skeptics and thought I was crazy for signing up now call it the “miracle program”! It truly was a great experience and all of the staff are so helpful. I can’t thank the Batelle enough!! ❤️

I thought I had the worst sleeper in the world, my little one wouldn’t sleep for more then 20 minutes straight during the day and chunks of one hour max during the night. When she was 6 months I was completely exhausted and so was she. I tried everything I read in internet and tried other sleep trainers in the area but nothing and so I thought that maybe the cry it out method was the only way forward, until Batelle. I don’t think I can express enough gratitude to them, they literally gave me my life back, they followed us every step of the way and they are always there to support. After Batelle, not only she sleeps but she is happier, much much happier. To however is reading this, if you think you need to sleep train you baby/child, you are in good hands!

Batelle was a miracle worker. We signed up because we were at our wits end. Our LO was cosleeping, would take about an hour to fall asleep every night with us rocking/holding her and her needing to put her fingers on our face (and sometimes in our mouths 🥴). She also woke up a few times in the middle of the night and on some nights would take about 45m - 2hrs to fall back to sleep after a wake up. We were sleep deprived and it was starting to take a toll on our relationship. This is where Batelle came in. I chose them, after much research, because of their beliefs in emotionally supporting your child through this transition. We did not want to do a CIO method so this was perfect. I will admit that the on-board process is a bit complex but the great thing is their communication is constant, even before we fully began. Without their 24/7 communication through the app, it would have been difficult for us to implement each step. So we are thankful for their constant guidance and support. By the end of class (roughly 2 weeks), my baby is now asleep (or self regulating) within 5 minutes and sleeping, on average, 12 hours a night in her own crib! WHAT! Did not think this was possible but here we are with so much free time on our hands now! Although it's a bit pricier than some others I found out there, it was absolutely worth the investment for our family!

Truly a great experience! The amount of support and care they gave throughout our sleep school journey helped make the experience a million times better. Our kiddo co-slept, fed to bed, woke up 2-3xs a night for milk or comfort. After Batelle, she can now go to sleep on her own within 5 min, she’s comforted by the sound of my voice instead of physical contact. They helped wean her off of night feeding and her pacifier which was incredibly challenging for us prior to sleep school. Honestly 10/10 recommend.

Firstly I wanted to share a bit of background to why we enrolled our second child, Gabriel to Batelle Babies. Our first child, Amber, who’s now nearly 2 1/2 years old, started with Batelle when she was 4 months old in 2020. It was a game changer for my wife and I, within 2 weeks she was sleeping from 7pm-7am (with a dream feed at 10.30pm). Fast forward to now, we’ve continued with the hatch light, ring camera and hug only (for a single mattress) for her afternoon nap (from 1-3pm) and for when she goes to bed at 7pm. To our amazement, especially when we hear or witness our own friends experiences (currently on holiday with some family friends with a daughter the same age as Amber) we feel so incredibly lucky as Amber will walk herself to her room now and climb into bed and wait for us to put the hug on, then be asleep in minutes. This routine has also had a huge impact on the toddler jet lag saga we’ve only just started to appreciate having had Amber in Singpaore at the start of the pandemic, completely sheltered through multiple lockdowns. To our surprise, when we set up the same sleep environment, even in an unfamiliar place to Amber, she immediately adopted a faster recovery to jet lag and being able to self settle without us having to come in. Granted for the first few nights we kept a close eye on her via the camera as we ourselves were jet lagged but we couldn’t believe how we were able to get her back into her sleep routine so quickly! It really has allowed the whole family to start enjoying the holiday straight away.. even after a 15 hr flight! 🤯, removing many of the anxieties we had about disrupting their sleep routines with long haul travel. When our second child Gabriel arrived in November 2022, he had a tough start having caught Covid at 6 weeks old aswell as battling a few other health concerns but he’s now out of the woods 🙏. Given our amazing experience with Batelle with Amber, we didn’t hesitate to sign up Gabriel as soon as he was old enough and ready to start. It’s worth highlighting that with Amber there wasn’t an app, it was peak lockdown and we got our support and instruction from the Batelle team via email, WhatsApp and zoom. We now have an app, with much easier access to information and support 24/7 via the chat (we are still in Singapore too and the timezone factor continued to not impact any support we needed, when we needed it). So we kicked off things with Gabriel and got him set up, initially in his swaddle with the mantra playing, ring light and hatch light, we didn’t move him into a hug until he was 5 months old. It took about 6 days to get his dream feeds aligned to support a later wake up (we started at 4-5am wake up with feeding when he woke to settle throughout the night), he was definitely a hungrier baby than amber was at 4 months so this took some patiences to push the last dream feed from 1am at this point to 10.30pm to get him to sleep through to 6-7am. He’s now 7 months old and also just taken his first trip abroad with the same results as Amber. To note, he still wakes up a little earlier than Amber, around 6-7am (bedtime 6.30-7pm), with Amber waking up at 7.45-8am and then happily playing in her bed with her toys until we then turn the hatch light to yellow (time to get up), allowing us to have had the time to feed Gabriel his breakfast (he’s just starter weening), get showered and then focus on ambers breakfast, getting her ready. We also have the flexibility to adjust the wake up times depending on whether it’s the weekend or when amber needs to go to nursery, where an early wake up is necessary. Switching these wake up times doesn’t impact either of them achieving 10-12hrs undisturbed sleep on a weekly basis. We are confident that Gabriel is on the same trajectory as Amber so far and as parents, we are as well rested as you can be, if not better, given we’ve not experienced life/sleep without Batelle to have an opinion, however we are totally in control of bedtimes and nap times for not just one but both our children now. If there’s one bit of advice we can give in our experience with Batelle, especially after reading some of these reviews, is stick to the advice and the plan the Batelle team give you in those first two weeks, don’t deviate without consulting with your sleep guide and be patient! The first week plus or minus is hard, you may even doubt the method, but trust me, it’s worth it when we see how well Amber sleeps and the positive impact that’s also had on her well being all round, fingers crossed we get the same for Gabriel! I write this whilst both our children are taking their afternoon nap (at the same time now) on our first family vacation, enjoying the peace and quiet, reenergising, ready for the rest of the day as a genuine thank you to the Batelle team for everything they’ve done and their ongoing support🙏

We just finished sleep school for our 20 month old son and I'm completely mind-blown at how amazing the experience was. Where the hell have you sleep angels been all of my life? Or our son's life??? Hubby and I were some of the lucky parents that has a child who just "got it" very early on and adjusted much faster than we (parents) did. The first night, I just knew it wasn't going to work because the little guy got so upset he threw up. I quickly took the hug off, put of his usual sheets and tried again. Luckily he settled quickly and stayed in the crib all night. I thought..."okaaay. This could work". 2nd night we tried again with the hug and success. By the 3rd night with the same success but sooner, I was convinced my son was on their payroll or they switched him for a clone after I dozed off. In the chat I asked "who is this baby"? Bedtime is much quicker and easier every night. Now, we can put him in his crib, zip him into his hug and he lays down like... ✌🏾😴 Before starting sleep school we our son thought would only go to sleep while laying with one of us or sitting or laying on top of us. We would eventually be able to put him down on a large pillow we have in the middle of our living room for play/nap time. He's always had a crib but he would never actually sleep in it for longer than 2-4 hours. Also NEVER through the night...like NEVER, ever. Whenever he would wake up in the crib, he would cry out bloody murder because it was unfamiliar and wasn't the original spot he fell asleep. In the past we unsuccessfully tried to sleep train him ourselves with tips and advice from friends, family and research. Nothing ever stuck and it was back to our usual program of LOTS of tears, protesting and back on Mama and Daddy's chest he went. 😫 I got completely fed up after being exhausted from not being able to get more than 3-4 hours of sleep, for almost 20 LOOOONG months! We bit the bullet and joined Batelle! At that point, I had already reached out for more info (2 months prior), was doing more research and honestly giving them my usual skeptical side eye. I'm sitting here smiling from ear to ear thinking about the much needed support I received from my team. Also the invauable wealth of knowledge I now have to empower our son to continue CHOOSING to get his well needed sleep. He is already a much more independent, happy, little boy who looks forward to whatever adventures he will get into the next day. I can't thank Batelle enough for turning these previously skeptical parents into believers! Now that I'm on the other side of this amazing program and getting sleep as a family I can say this program is 1000% what you put into it. If you do the work, follow the steps, reach out for support, join the Q&A sessions, it can and will work. Best investment EVERERR!!!

Very impressive program and very effective. Allow us as parents to understand our child better and be more confident. The team at Batelle is so awesome. Professional, knowledgeable, kind and so respectful of were each family is at in their evolution and needs. You will never feel alone again with them. Post school support is so much more then we expected. They are like angels doing cercles over you and are ready whenever you need an extra push of courage. 5 star to the best cheerleading team every parent should have behind them. Thank you Batelle You change our life everyday
