Editorial Review:

Product Description:
If your child is keeping you up at night, you're not alone. About 25 percent of all young children have trouble either falling asleep or staying asleep through the night. This comprehensive, easy-to-read book covers a range of sleep-related topics, from the basics (What is sleep?) to tips on bedtime routines and common sleep problems and disorders in children. Child psychologist and BabyCenter sleep expert Jodi Mindell provides a proven method that will teach your child to fall asleep and stay asleep. She even tackles sleeplessness in adults. Thoughtful and reassuring, this book will help weary parents cope with the challenges and stresses often associated with bedtime.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The only sleep book you need
Why is this the only sleep book you need? Because it is concise, to-the-point, has specific practical tips, and is BASED ON RESEARCH.

The author is active in both clinical practice and research through a Sleep Disorders Center at a Children's Hospital. This is not her personal opinion or general observations, this is based on research and experience specifically with kids having sleep problems.

We used this book to sleep train our twins at 8 months of age, after rocking ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Sound advice from a true sleep specialist!
My son didn't start sleeping through the night until he was 19 months old. That was when we started seeing Dr. Mindell. She and her book were wonderful for our family. She is compassionate and offers no-nonsense advice for helping your entire family get to sleep!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Gentle CIO, for an anti-CIO mom
Our 15 month old has never slept well, ever. He was colicky and had severe reflux (still does). I have read just about every possible sleep book out there, from Dr. Sears "Baby Sleep Book" to Dr. Weissbluth "Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child" to "The No Cry Sleep Solution". None of the non-CIO methods were working on our willful child, and my life (read marriage, health, work, etc) were beginning to show the effects.

After reading up on Jodi Mindell's qualifications on another website, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Pediatrician: I recommend it to all
I recommend this book to all my parents starting at 1mo. Since doing this routinely I have noticed many more sleeping babies and parents with much less intervention from me. I talk about sleep a lot, but now I dont have to as much! Teaching a baby sleep independence is a vital developmental task (most parents dont realize this), most new parents wait WAY too long, and somehow expect the baby to "do it when they are ready." Waiting until 12mo old is a guarantee of having to "cry it out", and that is OK ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - This book is a lifesaver!!
I had been struggling with my (now) 13-month-old daughter for months - trying to get her to sleep through the night. Up until last week, she was waking up no less than 20 times a night and would only go to sleep with a bottle. If she didn't have her bottle, she would scream and scream (and I would feel guilty).

I bought this book a few days ago. I followed the advice given and within 2 days she was falling asleep on her own - no screaming. It's great!

It was also interesting to read ... Read More
