Baby-Led Sleep™
What if your baby's sleep isn't the problem?
What if it's the clue?
Most sleep programs teach you how to stop the waking.
I'll teach you how to understand it.
Because when you understand why your baby is waking, better sleep often follows — without sleep training, without crying it out, and without sacrificing the relationship you're building with your child.
Here's what our students had to say
A masterclass in parenting
I signed up to learn about attachment-based sleep, following my intuition to lean away from “cry it out,” and girl, was I right! Lauren covers a full-on graduate-level course on attachment and sleep, sharing dozens and dozens of resources including books, podcasts, related experts in the field, videos, articles, and more. I am so grateful to Lauren and her team for putting their heart into this.
Megan HadleyI wish every parent knew this information
As a first time mom raising a wakeful baby amongst peers who all sleep trained, this course came as a life — and sanity — saver. I'm so grateful to learn about what “normal” infant sleep actually looks like. This course is so amazingly comprehensive, too, that its wisdom extends far beyond sleep as it teaches parents to parent with the empathy and respect that our kiddos deserve.
Katherine van EkertComplete change… in me
I finish this course with an overwhelming feeling of thankfulness. There's so much valuable information: very practical steps regarding sleep and also incredible resources on things you don't realize you need, like emotion and maternal self-care. The biggest “before and after” is a change in myself. I'm more easygoing and have come to love this time with my baby, contact naps and all.
Emily SimsMore than just a sleep course, in the best way possible
This course goes way beyond sleep and will transform how you think about your child's sleep and your relationship with your child. I found this course to be so empowering because it gave me real information on normal sleep and the confidence to make changes to shift patterns that weren't working for my family, in an informed, respectful, and safe way.
Stephanie GrasmanThis course has exceeded my expectations
This course answered all of my sleep questions and confirmed that following my maternal instincts is in fact the right decision. What surprised me was all of the additional information on emotional development. I can't recommend this course enough! Thank you, Lauren, for such a valuable and fulsome course.
Lorraine McGrattenLoved the sleep science behind this course
I absolutely loved the sleep science behind this course and love that it normalizes night wakings, nursing to sleep and bedsharing. The techniques are parent and baby led, allowing you to be flexible in creating your plan while ensuring it aligns with the values of your family, without compromising attachment.
Danielle SheppardHappy and rested
Completing the course helped me release all the negativity, guilt and failure of any form. It was just like you were here to tell me that I'm stronger than I think I am. Thanks to this course and you, my son is happier and much better rested — and so am I. I can't thank you enough for your guidance and love, for wanting us to understand our baby and his nature.
Alisa Scukanac MaticI wish every parent will take this class
This class is beyond amazing! I wish I took it with my older and every parent did. Such a life changer. Thanks Lauren for this class. I'm so thankful to find something that proves what I feel is normal is okay. So many important topics, all the extra information — this course has so much more than I would have ever expected.
Maria AntunezFantastic support to our intuitive nature
It is such a good solid source of research-based knowledge to complement all the natural instincts we have as parents. I learned a lot I didn't know and felt supported in what I already knew. Thank you!
Rosemary Silva
You're exhausted.
You haven't slept more than three hours in months.
You've Googled everything.
You've read the blogs.
You've listened to the podcasts.
And somehow… you're more confused than when you started.
Everyone has an answer.
“Sleep train.”
“It's just a regression.”
“They'll grow out of it.”
But almost nobody is asking the question that matters most.
Why is your baby waking in the first place?
Because before we try to stop the waking…
we need to understand it.
That's where everything changes.
Sleep Without Sleep Training
Stop guessing.
Start understanding.
Over the last 10+ years, I've helped thousands of families improve their baby's sleep without sleep training, while training more than 700 professionals in the Baby-Led Sleep™ approach.
This isn't another list of sleep tips. It isn't another rigid schedule. And it isn't someone telling you to “just wait it out.”
It's a complete step-by-step system that helps you understand why your baby is waking, what normal infant sleep actually looks like, and how to make gentle, evidence-informed changes that improve sleep while protecting the relationship you're building with your child.
Inside you'll get
Most importantly…
You'll stop wondering whether you're getting it wrong.
You'll understand your baby.
And when you understand your baby, better sleep becomes something you build together — not something you force.
Inside Sleep Without Sleep Training
A 1-hour private consultation with me
Before we ever meet, you'll complete a detailed intake so I can understand your baby, your family, and what's happening at night. I'll review everything and create a draft sleep plan before our call. Then we'll refine it together.
We'll talk through what's realistic for your family, what's getting in the way of better sleep, and what changes are most likely to make a difference.
By the end of the hour, you'll leave with more than a plan. You'll understand why we're making each recommendation, so you can make confident decisions long after our call is over.
Learn what normal infant sleep actually looks like
One of the greatest sources of anxiety for parents is not knowing what's normal.
You've been told your baby should sleep 12 hours.
That waking is a problem.
That feeding to sleep is a bad habit.
We'll separate biology from culture, so you can stop wondering whether you're getting it wrong and start understanding what your baby actually needs. Because real confidence comes from understanding, not guessing.
A sleep plan designed for your baby
No generic schedules.
No one-size-fits-all advice.
Your baby's temperament, age, feeding, medical history, sleep environment, and your parenting values are all taken into account.
Because there is no such thing as an “average” baby. And your plan shouldn't treat them like one.
Six weeks of personal email support
You won't be left to figure this out on your own. For six weeks you'll have direct access to me.
Ask questions.
Share updates.
Celebrate progress.
Or simply ask, “Is this normal?”
Sometimes that's the reassurance parents need most.
Learn to recognise red flags
Not every waking is something to fix.
But some deserve a closer look.
Inside the course you'll learn when frequent waking is developmentally normal, and when it's worth exploring things like reflux, allergies, tongue function, breathing, iron status, or other factors that can affect sleep.
My goal isn't to diagnose. It's to help you ask better questions and know when further support might be helpful.
Solutions for every sleep challenge
False starts.
Hourly waking.
Early mornings.
Split nights.
Nap struggles.
Bedtime battles.
Frequent feeding.
Independent sleep.
Whether your baby is four months or eighteen months, you'll have practical, evidence-informed guidance for the challenges families ask me about every day.

Lifetime access
Babies change.
Sleep changes.
Your questions change.
You'll have lifetime access to the course, so you can return whenever you need guidance at a new stage of your parenting journey.
This isn't just about getting more sleep.
It's about finally understanding your baby.
And when that happens… everything starts to change.
First, parents stop feeling lost.
“This has changed my life! I had bought into the sleep training culture, but it didn't feel right. I was stressed. This course has taught me about normal baby sleep, the myths of sleep training, and how to support my guy using a hands-on approach based in attachment parenting. Learning to support emotion truly revolutionized my life.”
Chelsea“I finish this course with an overwhelming feeling of thankfulness. The biggest 'before and after' is a change in myself. I'm more easygoing and have come to love this time with my baby, contact naps and all.”
Emily“I can't begin to explain all the ways Lauren has helped my family. Not only has she helped me with my son's sleep, she helped me foster a deeper understanding of both my children. Learning to support their emotions has truly changed my life and forever strengthened my relationship with them.”
HollieThen, sleep starts to improve.
“On just the second day of following Lauren's advice we had a 7:20pm–6:55am night with a few breast feeds and cuddles. A miracle! I am so grateful for having found Lauren.”
Daphne — baby was 15 months“We have gotten markedly better sleep since implementing the information and strategies provided in this course.”
Erin“My false starts have already started to improve after just a few nights of understanding how to help him nap and not become overtired.”
Diana“We have been able to eliminate false starts in the last two weeks.”
FlavieBut perhaps the biggest change is confidence.
“I no longer feel like a failure because I parent my child at night. I have learned that I do not have to give up nursing to sleep in order for my baby to sleep through.”
Alison“This course changed the way I was thinking about my child's sleep and I felt so much more confident as a parent after completing it.”
Meghan“I now feel more confident about my baby's sleep and have the steps I need to change patterns. I can trust my intuition and my instincts and tune into my baby!”
Nicole“I feel empowered to put my instincts and intuition to use and get to know my baby. I no longer feel pressured to follow others' opinions because I have been presented with evidence-based research.”
MaryEvery baby is different.
Which is exactly why this program isn't built around rigid schedules or one-size-fits-all advice.
“I have a 13 month old that wakes every 30 minutes to 2 hours (and has since birth). He has reflux and allergy problems. Lauren literally thought of everything that could hinder baby's sleep and attached resources to help with those problems.”
Amy“I learned a lot about my baby from this course, especially about his high sensitivity. This concept explained his behaviour which I couldn't previously understand, and now I can respond in a more understanding gentle way.”
Sonya“As a first time mom raising a wakeful baby amongst peers who all sleep trained, this course came as a life and sanity saver. I'm so grateful to learn about what 'normal' infant sleep actually looks like.”
KatherineYou belong here if…
This is for you
- You know in your gut that crying it out isn't right for your family.
- You've spent more time Googling infant sleep than actually sleeping.
- You've been told to stop nursing, rocking, or holding your baby to sleep, but it doesn't sit right with you.
- You're exhausted, but you're also deeply curious about why your baby is waking.
- You don't want another rigid schedule. You want to understand your baby.
- You'd rather make informed decisions than follow rules that don't fit your family.
- You want someone who will help you think, not just tell you what to do.
- And you want support that's grounded in both research and real life.
This probably isn't for you if
- You're looking for a quick fix.
- You want a strict schedule without understanding the reasoning behind it.
- Or you're committed to cry-based sleep training.
There are wonderful programs for that. This just isn't one of them.
Whether your baby is waking every hour…
struggling with naps…
dealing with reflux…
highly sensitive…
or you're simply wondering what's normal…
You're in the right place.
A note from Lauren
When I first started working with families over a decade ago, I thought my job was to help babies sleep.
I was wrong.
My real job was helping parents understand why their babies were waking. Because once you understand your baby, everything changes.
You stop second-guessing yourself.
You stop wondering whether you're creating “bad habits.”
You stop feeling like every wake is something you have to fix.
Instead, you start making confident decisions that are grounded in both research and your instincts.
Over the last 10+ years, I've helped thousands of families improve their sleep without using sleep training. I've trained more than 700 professionals in the Baby-Led Sleep™ approach, completed hundreds of hours of education in lactation and attachment, and I continue to immerse myself in the latest infant sleep research because I believe parents deserve information that evolves as the science evolves.
But my most important qualification isn't a certificate. It's that I've been where you are.
Exhausted.
Overwhelmed.
Wondering if I was getting it all wrong.
I created this program because I wanted parents to have what I wish I'd had: clear answers, evidence-informed guidance, and someone who could help me understand my baby, instead of simply trying to stop the waking.
I hope that's what this course becomes for you.

You don't have to choose between sleep and your values.
You don't have to ignore your instincts.
You don't have to let your baby cry.
And you don't have to keep wondering if you're getting it all wrong.
There is another way. One that begins with understanding.
Because better sleep doesn't start with teaching babies to sleep.
Better sleep starts with understanding.
Understanding what's normal.
Understanding what's getting in the way.
Understanding what your baby is trying to communicate.
When you understand your baby…
you stop guessing.
You stop second-guessing yourself.
And you finally know what to do next.
