### 2/5 — Doesn’t work very well

*2024-09-10, version 3.13*

Error

### 2/5 — Great info, terrible app

*2023-08-03, version 3.10*

While the info and support is really good and has been a massive help (when I’ve been able to access that is) the app itself is terrible.

The app is constantly glitching or not working at all. And when your paying $15 per month and not being able to access it’s extremely frustrating. I know $15 a month doesn’t sound like much but imagine your Netflix only worked for half the month you paid, you’d be annoyed.

### 5/5 — Overwhelming amount of amazing resources!

*2022-07-13, version 2.1*

Hey! Just want to thank you guys for how much support you offer outside of your guides via socials/app. Our 3 month old has become a serial daytime catnapper for weeks. Thought we were losing the plot because day naps hadn’t been a huge issue for us and he was pretty good at going to sleep on his own with little assistance! We thought we had sleep environment, wake windows and tired cues down packed. But nothing seemed to be working. This morning I rewatched your catnapping Insta highlight for the millionth time. Only this time I picked up something new. We shortened his awake window after another failed nap this morning, and he’s now been asleep for over an hour! Stirred a little but he put himself back to sleep. HE FINALLY INDEPENDENTLY LINKED HIS CYCLE!!  He hasn’t done this during the day in weeks! All because he went to bed that little bit earlier!! So thank you so much for the overwhelming resources you offer. We would be lost without it sometimes! xx

### 4/5 — Helpful!

*2022-06-30, version 2.0.9*

The resources, forum and team behind this app have been really helpful for a first time mum of a newborn! They provide loads of great info and tips on helping get your bub to sleep from a newborn up until 2-4 years. The forum is also a great space to source info, whether it’s from other mums with similar questions to your own, or from the Sleep App Team.

### 5/5 — Super helpful

*2022-06-30, version 2.0.9*

All the support you need at your fingertips!

### 5/5 — Worth it!

*2022-06-30, version 2.0.9*

First day following the guide and my serial cat napper had a  2.5 hour nap this morning and she is currently 1 hour into her second! Very happy!

### 5/5 — Best purchase as a FTM

*2022-06-30, version 2.0.9*

My literal life saver as a first time Mum. Have recommended the app to so many friends. Help at your fingertips!!

### 5/5 — Best sleep advice app

*2022-06-30, version 2.0.9*

Such an easy, helpful app to use. Functionality is great and straight to the point. Thank you ladies 🤍

### 5/5 — Excellent and achievable schedules

*2022-06-30, version 2.0.9*

Very pleased with the 3-12 month guide. My son has been a fantastic sleeper following the guide. Easy to follow and very easy to change to suit your lifestyle. The ladies at sleep school are also fantastic on Insta, always answering questions and giving help when needed.

### 5/5 — Rate this app!

*2022-06-29, version 2.0.9*

I love this app! I have all my guides I’ve purchased and I signed up for the forum when I had my son - I can’t rave enough about having a sleep consultant to answer quick questions!

### 5/5 — So helpful!

*2022-06-29, version 2.0.9*

This app was super helpful when my little boy was a newborn!

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2022-06-29, version 2.0.9*

They say it takes a village to raise a kid, well here is a part of your village. 
Great support from BBS

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2025-01-14, version 3.13*

I was so looking forward to learning from this app but everything I click on throws up error codes or it just freezes. I want to purchase the ebooks and it won’t let me

### 1/5 — App is not working - can’t get in contact with anyone

*2024-10-12, version 3.13*

I purchased all the e books and now I can’t access the app - just keeps saying oops something went wrong. These books weren’t cheap. $59 each. Either refund me for not being able to access these or give me access to the books.

### 1/5 — Ongoing errors

*2024-04-16, version 3.13*

Keep having ooops something went wrong errors all the time

### 1/5 — Money grubbing

*2023-10-11, version 3.11*

I bought the program just before they made the app, when their Facebook “village” was actually helpful and they genuinely seemed to care about mums. Their Facebook community is actually what encouraged me to buy it because I was a new mum and it was isolating AF being sleep deprived with a baby that had zero chill. Now it takes up to 2 weeks, sometimes longer, for them to even approve a post because they have this app and they want you to pay more money. I’m on maternity leave and can barely afford to see a gp when I feel sick, so now with a new baby I’m back to being sleep deprived and alone. Thanks ladies ✌️

### 1/5 — App has faults

*2023-06-26, version 3.10*

App is always crashing and always logging me out.

### 1/5 — Never consistent

*2023-05-23, version 3.7*

Purchased the 12-24 months, in the last 3 months when I try to access it the file, a couple of times, the app has tried to charge me another $59.99! Won’t let me view the program!

### 1/5 — Not good enough for $15 month!!

*2022-09-23, version 2.5*

The app constantly glitches and just closes. You also tick the anonymous post box but it still comes up with your name. It takes ages for your post or comment to post and then when it does it tells you there has been an error - try again but it has actually worked. So you end up posting twice for no reason. Terrible technology and just not good enough given how much is charged per month!!! You need revisit how much money you invest into the tech side of your business. It’s 2022!!!

### 1/5 — Private consultation - no show and no response

*2022-07-20, version 2.2*

Booked consult through the app and was not let into google meet. No issues with my technology and used correct link on correct day/time. Have sent two emails to follow up and no response.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2022-03-02, version 2.0.3*

They make out that if you subscribe to the app you’ll have access to the e-books however have to pay for them separately and never seem to answer any questions on the form that you pay to be apart of

### 1/5 — Expensive, generic information.

*2022-02-21, version 2.0.3*

Sets parents up to have unrealistic expectations of their baby and for failure. Sleep is developmental and it’s gross that a sleep guide would fail to include this information and at the same time claim to be “backed by science”. 

“Spaced soothing” is literally the Ferber Method (a.k.a controlled crying) with glitter slapped onto it. Putting it into a pretty pink guide may make it feel holistic but it’s not.  

So incredibly expensive and inaccessible. Harvey Karp 5S, Ferber method (spaced soothing/2,4,6,8) can all be found on google for free. Shushing and patting your baby is probably already your instinct.

### 5/5 — Such a wonderful baby companion

*2023-06-22, version 3.10*

I love this app so much! The forum is a wonderful feature where you can ask as many sleepy questions as you need! I have asked hundreds of questions and had an answer within a day. 
It has helped me get my baby on track and sleeping in his own room by 4 months. He settles himself and for the most part is now a good sleeper. 

Before this app, my baby was waking constantly and I didn’t realise how little tweaks and changes that the girls recommended could make such a positive difference.  

I love how they troubleshoot - no more 5 am wake ups thank goodness! 

Definitely worth every penny and I’ve already recommended to many mum friends!

### 5/5 — Thank you 🫶🏼

*2023-04-16, version 3.5*

I want to say THANKYOU. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You’ve honestly changed my life - I’m a better Mum, partner and person because of this app and the support I’ve received in less than a week. The support has been minimal but enough to have made a huge impact! I will shout out far and wide how much I preach your assistance and guidance 🫶🏼

### 5/5 — Amazing resource!

*2023-03-29, version 3.5*

I wasn’t sure how beneficial the forum would be at first but I highly recommend it! It’s like having your own personal sleep consultant to answer any questions you have. I always get a bang on response within 24hours & never feel like my questions are silly or too frequent. This is my first recommendation for anyone struggling with their baby’s sleep! And the best bit is you can cancel anytime, I’m finding I always ending up coming back though, babies are hard work 😅

### 5/5 — Amazing resource to have

*2023-03-02, version 3.4*

A huge thank you to the baby sleep school team.  

This app is such a great tool to have! I really like the forum aspect to the app where you can ask unlimited questions at any time of the day or night and they are always answered promptly and with lots of thought into your own personal circumstance. The guides are very easy to follow and you can adjust them to suit you and your baby. 

Sometimes the app is a bit slow and it takes a while to load the forum and glitches (you have to click on the links multiple times in the guides to see information) but otherwise a very easy and user friendly experience. Thank again!

### 5/5 — Could not thank you guys enough!

*2023-02-14, version 3.3*

Can I just say thank you sooo much for your help! I spoke to Kay over a week ago as my daughter was taking nearly an hour to go to bed every night. She’s 5 months old and can crawl and sit up unassisted which resulted in the shush pat method that we had been using was no longer working. She had always self settled, but it was being prolonged with our continual appearance assisting her. 

Kay encouraged I used 2,4,6,8 method. Night one was uncomfortable for me as I didn’t like the crying but no joke she put herself to sleep within 10 mins !! The first 3 days (naps and bedtime) she whinged and did a little cry but SS every time within 10 mins. By day 4 she didn’t cry at all!! It is now day 10 and she goes to sleep for all naps and bedtime within 5-10 mins everyday and night (NO CRYING). If she doesn’t go straight to sleep, she rolls around and plays until she’s ready and then self settles!! 

To top it off we just put her in the Porta cot in her room (she’s still in our room). 
We wanted to trial moving her to her own room as well as use the Porta cot to take to peoples places. She didn’t cry at all! Nap 1 - 45mins, nap 2- 2 hours. This method has helped the transition to have no issues wherever she sleeps!  

Soon to use for overnight resettles- fingers crossed ☺️
Thank you again sooo much ♥️

### 5/5 — Best investment I've ever made

*2023-01-29, version 3.1.2*

Baby Z was a non sleeper. He woke 5 times a night to feed, and refused to self settle  at any sleep time through day or night unless he was nursing. This was exhausting and impractical as my 2 yr old was often left alone for up to an hr. 

I contacted a local sleep consultant that offered some suggestions after paying for a consult and guide. Initially it worked for the first week by bay Z regressed, and regressed hard. After querying the routine I was told to push my baby out been longer.. this didn't work and he started waking 6/7/8 times a night. 

At a loss I reached out to Baby Sleep School after a recommendation from a  friend.  WOW. What a differences it made. After a 30 min consult and access to the Forum baby Z's night sleeps have reduced from 5x a night for a feed to 2x a night! He woke 2 extra times last night and self settled himself 🥹

We have successfully moved to the new sleep schedule through the day that Ive discussed with a consultant in the forums and we have a happy happy bubba! He self settles for all sleeps, by himself and is sleeping longer period and waking happy! All within a week and a half of hard, consistent work.

Take all my money, the best thing I've ever invested in is Baby asleep School 🤍

### 5/5 — Just what I needed

*2022-10-24, version 2.5*

I did a 15min consult last week, they quickly identified the cause of our issues and provided great advice. Little girl has slept through 5 out of 7 nights since, and the other 2 I’ve been able to resettle her in her cot within an hour. 
A VAST improvement on broken nights and dozing on the couch just to get baby back to sleep! 🫶🫶🫶

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2022-09-19, version 2.5*

Had 30min consult with Hayley today she was excellent and gave me really good advice and tips, all very easy to follow and implement. Would highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Thank you, thank you, thank you!

*2022-07-30, version 2.2*

Just wanted to say the forum has been saving my sanity the past few days as we navigate the 12 month regression.

As a first time mum the guides have given me direction and then forum support helps you tailor the guides and information to suit your little one. 
A quick check in when unsure and then you can start the next day feeling confident.

Highly recommend both for all mums/dads/care givers. 

Thanks so much for the timely and kind guidance x

### 5/5 — Sleep Help!

*2022-07-20, version 2.2*

I got to chat to the lovely Hayley through the sleepy app for a 30min call. For the last week my little one has been settling herself at night, has been resettling herself when she wakes during the night and only needs one feed around 2-3am sleeping through until 645/7. Absolutely amazing. So much better then the 3-4 wakes and split nights. The days feel so much easier now we are all getting some sleep. Would definitely recommend a chat to help talk things through. 
Thank you again so much, we couldn’t have done it without Hayleys help and suggestions. 👏☺️
