Cara Dumaplin built one of the best video courses in the parenting world. It works for a lot of families. If you're here, it didn't work for yours. The reason is almost never the course. It's that your family needed a custom plan, a live consultant, and someone to text at midnight.
No course author wants to admit this. We will, because it's the entire reason this business exists.
Taking Cara Babies, Moms On Call, The Baby Sleep Site. All of them give you accurate, evidence-based information. None of them write a plan for your specific child. None of them know your partner works night shift, your baby has reflux, your toddler is jealous, or that you live in a one-bedroom apartment where the crib is in your room.
If your family fits the "typical" template the course was built around, it works. If you don't, the gap between "what the course says" and "what to do at 2am tonight" is too wide. That's not a course problem. That's a delivery model problem.
The fix isn't a better course. It's a custom plan and a live consultant.
Two different tools for two different families. Pick the one that actually solves your problem.
Both tools have a right family. Here's how to know which one is yours.
A certified sleep consultant writes a 6-page custom plan for your child, walks you through it on a 90-minute call, and answers every text you send for 14 days.
Custom plan + 90-minute consult + 14 days of text support
One time. No subscription. No upsells.
40% of our clients went through a course first. None of them regret the order. All of them wish they'd started here.
"We did ABCs of Sleep. We did it twice. The information was good. The execution was where it fell apart. The custom plan was so different from the course. Worked in 5 nights."
"The course was great information for a baby that isn't ours. Our daughter has reflux and the modules didn't address it. The custom plan accounted for the reflux from day one."
"Spent $179 on the course. Watched it. Watched it again. Still up at 3am. Spent $597 here and slept through 6 nights later. I should have started here."
No. Cara built a fantastic product and helped a lot of families sleep. If a course is the right tool for your family, buy hers. We're the right tool for families that need custom and live, not pre-recorded.
Yes. About 3x. You're buying a private consultation, a custom plan, and two weeks of a certified consultant's time. A course gives you information. This gives you a delivered outcome.
Yes, and many families do. They watch the course first for context. Then they buy The Sleep Reset to actually execute. Both can coexist.
No, unless you choose extinction. The plan is built around your parenting philosophy. Most families pick a gradual fade or a check-and-console approach. You set the boundary on crying, we build the plan around it.
If you follow the plan consistently and we don't see meaningful sleep improvement within 14 days, we extend coaching support at no extra cost until we do.
The intake questionnaire hits your inbox in 60 seconds after checkout. Most families have their consult booked within 48 hours.
