Sage A. & Luca
“We noticed results in the first night — he fell asleep on his own. Now we put him in the crib awake and he falls asleep within one minute, through the night until 7:30 AM. It's a night and day difference — we're all more rested with way more energy for our son during the day.”
Would you recommend it? “100%. A well rested baby and parents make your whole day much more enjoyable. The results have been nothing short of amazing.”
Mel H. & Matteo
“It only took three nights for him to go to bed by himself, no crying. It changed our lives.”
Would you recommend it? “Definitely!!! It was easy to follow the plan and I didn't have to leave my baby crying for a crazy amount of time.”
Lindsay C. & Emma
“On the first night she woke once and put herself back to sleep without us intervening. I don't dread bedtime anymore, Emma is so much happier, and I finally have time to prepare for the next day and feel like myself again.”
Would you recommend it? “I would — I've already been telling people at work how wonderful it has been. The coaching took out the guesswork and gave me accountability and encouragement.”
Alex G. & Jade
“By the second night she fell asleep on her own within minutes. Sleeping through the night ever since.”
Would you recommend it? “100000%!!! Samantha and her team were there for us every step of the way… EVERY step.”
Ieshia Cuspard & Dash
“In about a week, everything took a complete 180. Now he's in bed from 8:30 PM to 7 AM, my husband and I have our alone time and date nights back, and everybody is happier.”
Would you recommend it? “Yes, because it's effective. It was an investment well spent, and I'm truly grateful.”
Katie O. & Johnny
“We tried everything. Now he's sleeping through the night and happier than ever because he's sleeping. And so are we!”
Would you recommend it? “Sam's coaching takes the clouded emotional judgment of a tired parent out of the equation.”
Tatyana & Ezra
“It took one night, and it wasn't even as hard as we had prepared for. We're finally sleeping and so well rested — we are over the moon with the results.”
Would you recommend it? “Absolutely. This is not cry-it-out; it's strategic, planned, and Samantha walks you through the entire process. It's the best money we've spent in a very long time.”
Andrea & Claire
“Claire was up six, seven times a night. After one night she goes down at 8 PM and sleeps in her crib until 7 AM . Best money I've spent in a long time.”
Elana B. & Zelina
“Day seven she was sleeping through the night and I was shook. She still goes down like clockwork — I have my life back and feel like myself again.”
Would you recommend it? “I wish I started sooner. Sleep is such an important part of life and affects your mood as a parent.”
Claire & Angie O. — Miles
“Literally on night one, Miles slept through the night. Over the next three to four weeks, he slept through about 95% of the time — and nearly two months later, the difference is still amazing.”
Would you recommend it? “Yes — and I already have to a whole bunch of people. We are also actually sleeping, getting rest, and have our evenings back. I would totally do it again.”
Cassie R. & Kenai
“By the fourth day, he was sleeping on his own; by the fifth, he wanted to go to bed. Now he sleeps nearly 12 hours, points to his crib, and goes down without crying.”
Would you recommend it? “Yes. We're all sleeping through the night, our family is happier, and my husband and I finally have our evenings and marriage back.”
Grace E. & Francis
“Within four days he was sleeping through the night consistently while still breastfeeding during the day. We have a predictable routine, and my husband and I finally have our evenings back.”
Would you recommend it? “Yes. The method works, the coaching keeps you on track, and the improvement in our whole family's sleep is incredible.”
Allison & Josh — Cade
“At our two-week mark, Cade has been sleeping through the night since night one. Coming from waking 5-6 times a night, it's absolutely insane.”
Would you recommend it? “I could not recommend it more. We wish we'd done it so much sooner. We are actually sleeping.”
Leah S. & Ari
“On night one he fell asleep on his own and put himself back to sleep after every waking. Night two, no night wakings. Now he happily goes into his crib and even sings to himself before falling asleep.”
Would you recommend it? “Absolutely. Samantha is the real deal. This is the first course where I've felt truly supported — and my husband and I have our nights back.”
Ariella & Leora
“By night three, she was sleeping through and has been ever since. She never wakes in the middle of the night, loves her crib, points to it, and now takes naps without a struggle.”
Would you recommend it? “Absolutely. Sleep is priceless, Sam was always available as our coach and cheerleader, and Actually Sleeping is a guarantee.”
Katie S. & Ollie
“He's he's put himself to sleep and slept the whole night.”
Would you recommend it? “Yes, Samantha knows what she is doing. She is the most thorough and detail oriented person I have ever worked with. More than myself!”
Jasmine R. & Layla
“it really worked.”
Would you recommend it? “Yes, 1000 time because it actually works and I was completely shocked. Yeah the first day made me the first night will be rough and I really didn't believe it, but it wasn't even as rough as I thought it was gonna be and like it was so simple and easy and like they're just there with you every step of the way all their employees everything I just had an amazing experience.”
Kay P. & Kamora
“I thought she was a stubborn, fights-to-the-end type of baby, but following the steps actually worked. She slept through the night on night one, and every night after that for 10 nights in a row.”
Would you recommend it? “Absolutely! The real proof was in my personal experience. Sam and her team have been amazing from the very beginning.”
Ashley K. & Autumn
“Within three to four days she was sleeping through the night. Now 95% of nights she sleeps 11-12 hours, and she rolls over and falls asleep within three minutes.”
Would you recommend it? “Yes! Sam has the knowledge and the encouragement to help get your baby sleeping and motivate you through the rough patches.”
Kenzie E. — Noah & Harper
“Both were night one. We have hours back in the week, time together as a married couple, and evenings we no longer dread.”
Would you recommend it? “Yes! It works, you need someone to stand accountable to other than yourself and your spouse, and everyone in the house is sleeping better.”
Molly & Nick C. — Alex
“Life is so much easier! Bedtime used to be a major source of stress and could take hours, and now we have a short, predictable routine, put her in her crib around 8, and she falls asleep independently and sleeps through the night. We actually have our evenings back, we're all more rested, and most importantly, she seems so much happier and better rested too. It has genuinely changed the rhythm of our whole family for the better.”
Would you recommend it? “Absolutely. I would especially recommend it to a parent who feels like they've read all the advice and know what they're "supposed" to do, but are nervous to actually make the change. The personalized coaching, reassurance, and support gave us the confidence to follow through—and the results happened so much faster than we expected. We went from hours-long bedtimes to a happy, independent sleeper, and it has made such a difference for our entire family.”
Jessica T. & Joey
“Definitely skeptical when they said two to three days. Joey was sleeping within three nights and we have our bed back. They customized it to us and to our baby.”
Would you recommend it? “It worked. The detailed plan, the support, the accountability and honesty is what helped us sleep train our stubborn (and very smart) two-year-old.”
Margo & Gideon
“Night one he slept twelve hours. The best money we have spent in the last two years. I have 8 hours of my day back — it even got my 16-year-old going to bed on her own.”
Would you recommend it? “Absolutely. This program has given me back my life. If you're on the fence, just do it — it is honestly stupid easy.”
Alyssa K. & Tallulah
“After the first night she started sleeping through the night. She sleeps 8 PM to 6:30 AM every night. If we had known about it sooner, we would have done it a long time ago.”
Would you recommend it? “One million times over. If you want to enjoy your baby and your life again — this is the only way.”
Taylor M. & Crew
“The first night was a little rough, but he slept about 10 hours — and 11 to 12 hours every night since, with a two-hour nap. He loves going to bed. He's a completely different baby.”
Would you recommend it? “I've already recommended Actually Sleeping to a few friends with newborns who are struggling with sleep.”
