Methods that have been tested, not guessed.
Calm Nights uses behavioral techniques studied in randomized trials published in Pediatrics.
Faster sleep, fewer wakings
In a randomized trial of 43 infants aged 6–16 months, timed check-ins and bedtime fading both reduced how long babies took to fall asleep, and check-ins reduced night wakings. At 12 months, researchers found no differences in emotional or behavioral problems or attachment.
Gradisar et al., Pediatrics, 2016 · doi.org/10.1542/peds.2015-1486No long-term harm found
A trial that followed 225 families to age six found no lasting negative effects of infant behavioral sleep techniques on children’s emotional health, stress, or the parent–child relationship.

Written by a BCBA.
Calm Nights was written by a NeuroPath co-founder, a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and parent. It uses the approach behavior analysts use every day: small, consistent steps, measured with data, and always kind.
What’s a BCBA? A Board Certified Behavior Analyst is a graduate-level professional certified by the Behavior Analyst Certification Board to apply behavior analysis, the science of how behavior is learned and how it changes. BCBAs design plans that build new skills and change habits using data, consistency and positive approaches. A BCBA is not a physician, so medical questions about your child belong with your pediatrician.
Before you buy.
What age is this for?
Healthy babies roughly 6–18 months old. For younger babies or specific concerns, talk with your pediatrician first.
Will my baby cry?
Some protest is normal with any change. If you want the least crying, start with bedtime fading, the gentlest method in the guide.
What about night feeds?
Ask your pediatrician whether your baby still needs them. The plan shows you how to keep a needed feed without it becoming the only way back to sleep.
How do I get it?
Right after checkout you land on a download page, and a copy is emailed to you too. No account or sign-in. Print the checklists and 30-day tracker, or fill them in on your phone.
How can I pay?
Checkout is handled securely by Stripe. Major cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Link are accepted, plus other local methods depending on your country.
Is it up to date?
Yes. The guide was reviewed in September 2026 against the American Academy of Pediatrics safe-sleep recommendations and recent research, and cites every source.
Is this medical advice?
No. It’s educational information on behavioral sleep techniques. It doesn’t replace your pediatrician, and you should pause the plan whenever your baby is sick. See the terms.
