Everything You Need for Baby Sleep—All in One Place


If you’re feeling unsure about how to navigate newborn sleep, you’re not alone—and this course is here to help you feel calm, confident, and informed. Learn what’s typical in newborn sleep, how to understand newborn sleep stages, and how newborn brain development plays a powerful role in when and how your baby sleeps. We’ll cover essential topics like awake windows, overtiredness, and sleepy cues, plus how to create a safe sleep space, establish soothing routines, and use tools like The 5 S’s and swaddling effectively. You’ll also explore how play can promote security in the sleep space, how feeding and sleep are connected, and how to navigate baby sleep progressions and developmental leaps—including the 4-month sleep regression (which we rename the progression). With tips for parental sleep hygiene, managing stress, and safe infant sleep on the go, this course is your gentle guide to optimizing your newborn’s sleep—so everyone in your home can rest a little easier.

FAQ

Are there clinical studies to prove these courses works?

expand_less
expand_more

​Extensive clinical research supports the benefits of perinatal education, including online, self-paced formats. Studies have shown that such programs can significantly reduce fear of childbirth, alleviate psychological distress, and enhance preparedness for labor. For instance, research published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research indicates that digital guided self-help mindfulness training effectively alleviates psychological distress among pregnant women and supports positive infant outcomes. ​

source 🔗


Another study in the Journal of Advanced Nursing found that web-based antenatal care systems can reduce maternal stress and improve self-efficacy during pregnancy. ​

These findings underscore the effectiveness of online, self-paced perinatal education in supporting maternal well-being and enhancing childbirth experiences.​

How is a Nurtured Nest course different from an in-person class?

expand_less
expand_more

In-person classes can be great for asking specific questions or connecting with other parents — but they’re not always ideal for deep, reliable learning. That’s where Nurtured Nest stands apart.

In-Person Class Nurtured Nest Online Course
Experience varies by instructor and group Consistent, expert-led content in every course
Topics may shift depending on who’s attending Thoughtfully structured to cover everything you need
Often rushed or hard to fit it all in Bite-sized videos designed for real-life attention spans
One-time session — hard to revisit info later 12 months of access so you can come back anytime
Travel and scheduling challenges Learn from home, whenever it works for you
Often $100+ Affordable pricing, FSA/HSA eligible, financial help available

Bottom line: If you want reliable, expert-backed education that fits your life and sticks with you when you need it — Nurtured Nest is here for you.

What are the learning videos like?
expand_less
expand_more

Our videos are simple, clear, and intentionally scripted—because accuracy and efficiency really matter, especially during pregnancy and early parenting.

You’ll hear from real professionals and parents—not actors—who use a teleprompter to make sure nothing important gets missed. It’s not flashy, and that’s on purpose. We focus on giving you calm, trustworthy guidance without the overwhelm.
