Life changing!
We graduated sleep school tonight and it has been a life changing journey! Several weeks ago I was scrolling through Facebook while nursing my 20 month old, hoping he would drift off to sleep and I could put him in bed for a few minutes of freedom before my bedtime, when the Batelle ad popped up. The timing was perfect, I was beyond exhausted and needing a change but unsure how to go about it. Reading through their promise of sleep in 5 minutes or less and sleeping throughout the night seemed like a dream. I was skeptically hopeful. I talked it over with my husband and he said, “I’m so desperate for a change, I don’t even care if it’s a scam, let’s give it a shot.” (He clearly thought it sounded too good to be true as well) We signed up that night and were quickly met by a warm and welcoming team. The program itself is intense because there is so much healthy learning and processing for both parents and baby. Through every step, however, there is around the clock support. The Batelle team is so knowledgeable about child development. The process is extremely child centered and nurturing for parents and baby. When I say life changing, I mean life changing for every member of our little family! After a week of sleep school my son was falling asleep or settling within 2-3 minutes, with minimal wake ups and settling within less than 5 minutes at those wake ups! I am no longer sleep deprived and my sanity is returning, our marriage is already improving because we are not exhausted and actually have time to see each other in the evenings, and my older son is happier because mommy is more available at his bed time and in the mornings. We are so grateful for this program!! I wish that I would have had Batelle available when my older son was a baby!!
