The Little Sleeper Method Guide by Hello Little Sleepers

The newborn fog has lifted - but the sleep struggles haven't

You made it through the early weeks. But somewhere between the nap transitions, the wake windows that keep changing, and the sleep regressions that seem to come out of nowhere, sleep has started to feel like a puzzle you just can't crack.

You're not doing anything wrong. Sleep at this age is genuinely complex - and it changes constantly. What worked at 5 months doesn't work at 10. This guide gives you the understanding and the tools to keep up, every step of the way.

The Guide

What's inside

🧠

Sleep science made simple

Understand how sleep cycles, circadian rhythm, and sleep pressure work - and why it all matters for your baby's naps and nights.

Wake windows by age

Exact wake window ranges from 5 through to 18 months, so you always know when to time sleep for the best results.

🌙

Gentle Fade Method

A step-by-step gradual settling approach that slowly reduces your involvement over time, at a pace that feels right for your family.

Quick Reset Method

A clear, structured interval-based approach for families ready for a faster change - with full guidance on how to do it gently and confidently.

📅

Age-by-age sample schedules

Sample routines for each month, 5 through to 18 months, built around real wake windows and sleep totals for that stage.

🍼

Night weaning guide

A gentle, step-by-step approach to reducing night feeds when your baby is ready - with clear guidance on telling hunger from habit.

🔄

Nap transitions

How to navigate the 3-to-2 and 2-to-1 nap changes without derailing everything - with signs to watch for and a step-by-step plan.

💪

Regressions, teething and travel

How to handle the bumps along the way - sleep regressions, illness, teething, and travel - without losing the progress you've built.
