## What is Baby Sleep Trainer?

Train your baby to sleep the night so you can get some well-needed rest. Uses a proven sleep training method that teaches your baby to self-soothe and go back to sleep.

Going to sleep independently is a learned behavior, and everyone needs a good night's sleep - Mom, Dad, siblings, and your infant. Once your infant's doctor tells you they no longer need to eat in the middle of the night (usually around 4-5 months old), they can learn how to put themselves to sleep and to sleep through the night. Unfortunately, while babies obviously know how to sleep, they don't necessarily know how to soothe themselves to sleep at bedtime, and back to sleep when they naturally wake up during the night. A typical sleep cycle is 90 minutes, after which our bodies naturally wake up a bit, and then can either stay awake, or go back to sleep. The goal of sleep training is to help children to develop good sleep associations, strategies, and behaviors that help them to fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. 

Testimonial from a Beta Tester: "The first night my daughter cried for 45 minutes, with me checking on her 6 times and also cried several minutes twice in the middle of the night, the second night 20 minutes and twice in the middle of the night, the third night 5 minutes and once during the night, and the fourth night she didn't cry at all, and then slept 7 hours straight!"

### 5/5 — Best $1 I’ve ever spent!

*2021-06-25*

We are on our fourth night using the app. The first night it took two hours and 8 checks. Tonight it took us 45 minutes and three checks. Everyone has more energy because baby is finally able to get a full nights rest.

### 5/5 — Works!

*2019-08-03*

Day 5 and our 9 month old slept 12 hours straight.  He used to be a good sleeper, but totally regressed when he started teething and never went back.  In 5 days of using this app he slept through the night. What I love most about this app is the simplicity and accountability. I tap when he goes to sleep, and tap when he cries.  Then, the app notifies me when it’s time to check on him. I used to say “ok, I’ll check him in 5 minutes” but only wait for two minutes because it’s so hard to hear baby cry. Now, I have a concrete timer that lets me know when it’s time. I also love that it progresses through the days on its own, so the wait windows on day 2 is longer than the wait windows on day 1. Like the Ferber method. I downloaded a different app that had better graphics but I liked this one way better.

### 5/5 — Only thing that worked for us

*2017-06-30*

This app was amazing and the only thing that worked for my family in sleep training. I would definitely recommend it to any parents out there dreaming of sleep.

### 5/5 — Приложение отличное!

*2017-03-12*

Второго ребенка уже научил ночью спать с помощью этой программки. Первые дни конечно нервы напрягаются, но чем дальше - тем легче.

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2016-11-17*

Tried it on our 8 month old with the Cry It Out method (letting him cry) and by the night 4-5 he was barely crying when we would put him down. Only problem was that he could now stand up on his cot so we had to persevere. Maintaining same bed time routine each night also helped. Recommended it to a friend and it worked a treat for her too.

### 1/5 — Not a trainer at all

*2016-10-17*

This is more a sleep time recorder. It does nothing more than let you time babies sleep... so disappointed

### 4/5 — Working wonders on our 5 month old

*2016-03-01*

This app is awesome and started working for us ON NIGHT 1! And she keeps sleeping longer and crying less every night since then (now on day 5). Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the log layout is a bit overwhelming to look at and could use some design work. It would also be awesome for cloud sync where my wife and I could use the app simultaneously

### 3/5 — Nice timer, could be improved

*2016-02-28*

I'm currently sleep training my 6-month-old son and this is a nice timer app. The log is confusing and could benefit from some simplification (way too many numbers). Also would be nice if the app credited Dr. Ferber for his "progressive waiting" method of sleep training. Would be nice if you could insert a photo of your own child into the app (crying face or sleeping face maybe?).

### 2/5 — Crying doesn't always work

*2016-02-05*

Good for tracking how many times baby has woken up or started crying and how long it has taken them to go back to sleep. There is very little information about sleep training itself and other methods than the 'popular' CIO. What's best for baby needs to be addressed which means a section with other methods since not every baby responds well to CIO. There could also be easier editing if parents choose to allow their baby to cry.

### 5/5 — A sleep deprived mum's best friend

*2016-01-02*

At 11 months my toddler had broken me. Waking every hour every night! Sleep training became very necessary but previous attempts were very rough on all of us and didn't stick. This timer on this app takes the guesswork out of when to go in and when to stay out. I can't think straight to make these kind of decisions in the night and this app does it for you. I had my first ever block of five hours sleep on the first night and continue to make rapid progress. I admit I don't really need to look back at the logs at this point but enjoying the app. Thanks
