Overview
Nicole Johnson founded The Baby Sleep Site in 2008 after struggling with her own son's sleep, and it has grown into a large library of free articles, e-books and paid consultations. Paid plans begin with an assessment of your baby's schedule and sleep associations.
You then choose a method on a gentleness spectrum, from no-cry to cry-it-out, and get a customized plan with follow-up support. The free content is extensive. Quality can vary across individual consultants, and the program hasn't been independently studied.

- Follow up.
