The reality of this stage

"I know I need to do something about the sleep. I just don't know what to do when it's actually happening at 11pm."

The four to twelve month window brings the biggest shifts of the first year. Sleep regressions. Starting solids. Nap transitions. Balancing milk and meals. And almost all of it happens in real time - when you're exhausted and need an answer now, not in a consult next week.

It's 10pm and you don't know what to do

You know something needs to change. You just need someone to tell you exactly what to do, step by step, tonight.

Solids feel overwhelming

What to offer, when, how much, how to build a balanced plate - and whether what your baby is eating is actually enough.

Progress is hard to see

When you're in it every night, it's impossible to tell whether things are actually improving or whether you're going backwards.

Conflicting advice everywhere

You need one trusted source that gives you the same answer at 3am that it would at 3pm - grounded in evidence, not opinion.

Like having a sleep consultant there with you each night

The Sleep Trainer walks you through every single night of the settling process - not just the theory, but the live moment. Choose your method, tap start, and the app tells you exactly what to do and when.

Two evidence-based methods: the Chair Method and Graduated Checks
Night-by-night guidance that shifts as your baby progresses - night one through night seven
A live crying timer that tells you when to wait and when to go in
A 20-second calm timer that confirms your baby is genuinely settling
Audio guidance for each night
Seperate nap guidance alongside the overnight protocol
Log your settling time after each night to feed into the progress tracker

Choose your method and

select your night

Live timer running - the app guides every moment

Bedtime routine checklist

No more staring at the fridge wondering what to give them

The Meal Builder takes the decision fatigue out of feeding your baby. Select from each food group and it builds a nutritionally complete plate - showing you exactly what you're including and why.

Build a balanced plate from protein, carbohydrate, healthy fat, colour and flavour categories
Nutritional data shown for each ingredient: iron content, vitamin C, protein
Smart iron pairing alerts: when your protein and colour choices will boost iron absorption together
Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack idea libraries for every stage
Designed for use from around six months once solids are established
No prescriptions - a practical guide that builds your confidence over time

Select from five food groups to build a balanced meal

Nutritional data at a glance - iron, protein, vitamin c and zinc

Meal ideas for every time of the day

See the change that's hard to feel when you're in it

When you're up at 11pm, midnight, and 2am, it's impossible to know whether things are getting better. The progress tracker shows you the data - so you can see the trend even when the nights still feel hard.

Log your settling time after each night directly from the Sleep Trainer
A visual bar chart that builds night by night, showing settling time across the week
A full sleep diary to log nap times, wake times, night wakes and food
Patterns become visible within three to four nights - even when individual nights vary
Data stays on your device across sessions so nothing is lost

Watch your progress chart build across the week

Your full sleep diary, all in one place

Frequently asked

What exactly is a progressive web app?

It's a web-based app that works on any phone or tablet - no app store download needed. You simply open it in your browser, add it to your home screen in one tap, and it behaves exactly like a native app. It works offline once loaded and saves your progress locally on your device.

Which sleep methods does the app include?

The Sleep Trainer includes two evidence-based methods: the Chair Method (gradual physical withdrawal over seven nights) and Graduated Checks (timed check-ins at increasing intervals). Both include night-by-night guidance, live timers, audio scripts and a logging system that feeds your progress chart.

How is this different from a 1:1 consultation with Sofie?

A 1:1 consultation provides personalised strategies built around your specific child, history and situation. This app provides the same evidence-based framework as a consultation, structured for independent use. Many families find it is everything they need. Others use it as a foundation and then book a consultation for any remaining challenges - which makes the consultation much more targeted and efficient.

My baby is already eight months. Is it too late to start?

Not at all. The app is designed for the full four to twelve month window. The sleep methods work at any point in this stage, and the meal builder and learning content are relevant right through to twelve months and beyond.

Do I need to work through everything or can I use specific features?

You can use it however works for you. Many families open the Sleep Trainer on night one and use it every night for a week, then turn to the Meal Builder at mealtimes and dip into the Learn section as questions come up. Everything is immediately accessible - there is no set path through the content.

What if I need more support than the app provides?

A 1:1 consultation with Sofie is always available. Families who have used the app first tend to get more from their consultation time because the foundations are already in place and the session can focus on what's specific to their child.
