About

• What is 4babysleep.com? This site was created by parents to help families with babies and small children get better sleep. Our mission is to educate parents on the options, and make recommendations from experience. We provide information and a supportive community for parents during this difficult but wonderful life stage.

• Are you guided by a specific philosophy on baby sleep? While we are quite familiar with the research and popular baby sleep approaches, we are ultimately guided by our personal experience raising our families. At a basic level we have learned through trial and error that some form of gentle sleep training truly helps babies be happier and healthier. In turn this helps the whole family unit be more balanced and thrive during what can be a taxing number of years. However, you do not have to agree with this in order to take advantage of much of the content and recommendations. Give it a try– use what works, ignore what doesn’t.

• I have learned a thing or two in my day – can I contribute to the site? Yes! While a few of us parents have partnered to provide the content for this site, we are counting on you to comment on what you see and make suggestions for improvement. Many decisions you make along the way are subjective and it helps to have a community of parents to help. So please feel free to add public comments within or email us privately to provide your feedback.
