More than one child? How Actually Sleeping helps the whole family sleep

It can. The parents in this video are juggling toddlers, second babies and large families, and they talk about entire households sleeping again. Some went on to bring a second child through Actually Sleeping too. Dr. Sam builds every plan around your family, siblings and their schedules included, with bootcamp-style coaching ahead of night one and 1:1 check-ins every day.

What parents who shared this worry told us

“I also have a three year old, so managing both schedules and dealing with the whole sleep situation has just been absolutely life changing.”

“And so they also did the Actually Sleeping program for her, and it only took her three nights before she was sleeping in her own bed.”

Watch

“My children slept through the night by their third night.”

“I’ll tell you that both kids are sleeping. They’re happier. They’re healthier.”

“My other toddler’s getting sleep again and my husband’s getting sleep.”

Why parents with several children hold back

When there is more than one child, bedtime is always a juggling act. Parents fear that a sleep plan for the baby will disturb the toddler, collide with school runs and activities, or just demand time they cannot spare.

The parents in this video describe the opposite: when the baby started sleeping, so did the whole house.

Planning for the family, not only the baby

Dr. Sam writes the plan with everyone at home in mind: who shares a room, what time older children go to bed, and how your evenings really unfold. The coaching ahead of night one explains how the plan works around siblings. After that come 1:1 check-ins every day, and naps are coached until they are solid. If more than one of your children needs help, you can talk that through on the consultation.

The families in this video include a mom with a three-year-old and a newborn, parents of two young sons, and families who returned for a later child. Some had a toddler who already slept well alongside a baby who did not. Others needed help with several children. Because every household is different, Actually Sleeping plans each of these situations in its own way.
