A Gentle, Evidence-Based Downloadable Guide to Baby Sleep (0–12 Months)
Get this comprehensive first year sleep guide right to your email inbox right now!
Sleep during the first year doesn’t need to feel confusing, overwhelming, or full of pressure.
Once Upon a Sleep was created to help parents understand how baby sleep actually works, build healthy sleep foundations, and move through the first year with more confidence and far less second-guessing.
Written by a NICU Registered Nurse, Pediatric Sleep Consultant, and mom of two, this guide blends evidence-based education with real-life practicality. It is not about rigid schedules, forcing independence through crying it out, or “fixing” your baby. It is about understanding and supporting sleep developmentally so that you create the optimal environment and routine for your baby to sleep their best.
This section gives you the knowledge you need before focusing on schedules or routines. You’ll learn:
How infant sleep cycles work (and why night wakings are normal)
What’s developmentally appropriate at different ages
How to create a supportive sleep environment
How soothing, routines, and wake windows fit together
How to respond confidently without over-intervening
These chapters set the foundation so everything else feels clearer and lighter.
This is where parents love to return again and again.
Each age range includes:
Quick-reference sleep guidance (wake windows, naps, daytime sleep, bedtime)
What’s happening developmentally at that stage
Common sleep challenges you may notice
Practical ways to support sleep during that phase
Gentle reminders of what not to stress about
The monthly chapters are designed to be easy to reference without feeling repetitive or overwhelming.
This guide is:
Evidence-based
Developmentally appropriate
Educational, not medical advice
Designed for personal use only
If you find yourself wanting guidance tailored specifically to your baby, your home, and your goals, personalized sleep consulting is available through Mothergood.
This guide gives you the foundation.
Individual support helps you apply it with confidence.
