Will I be on my own with Actually Sleeping?
No. Families in this video describe being coached through everything: bootcamp-style coaching before night one, so they knew exactly what to do, then daily 1:1 check-ins with quick responses and real encouragement. One mom says Samantha will not leave you high and dry. Every plan is written for the baby by Dr. Sam, and naps are coached until solid.
What parents who had this worry say
“I couldn’t have done this without the coaching support.”
“And Samantha will not leave you high and dry. She walks you through it the entire way.”
“She was quick responding and really helped us understand the process, not just tell us what to do.”
“Well, honestly, I didn’t think that I would need the emotional support or the encouragement as much.”
“The support is amazing, and I feel like if you have the support, you can do it.”
“Every time she says, it’ll get better in a couple days, and I’m like, will it? And it has every single time.”
Why parents fear doing it alone
Sleep plans are easy to read and hard to hold. The hard part tends to come when you are tired and unsure whether what is happening is normal. Parents with a partner who travels, works long hours or is away worry about carrying it all themselves.
The parents in this video describe how much the coaching and encouragement mattered, sometimes more than they expected.
How the support works
Dr. Sam writes your plan. Before night one, you get bootcamp-style coaching that prepares you fully, so you are confident, know exactly what to do at every moment and can make decisions on your own at night. After that, daily 1:1 check-ins review how things went, answer your questions and adjust the plan. Naps are coached until solid. The result is guaranteed: “We guarantee that your baby will sleep 8–12 hours through the night within 14 days of consistent, correct implementation of your sleep plan.”
Parents who had a partner away, or who simply felt they did not have the capacity to do it alone, describe the coaching as the reason it worked. With Actually Sleeping, the support is built into the plan until naps are solid.

Frequently asked
Will someone be with me during the night?
Coaching does not happen during the night. Instead, the bootcamp-style coaching before night one prepares you so thoroughly that you know what to do at every moment and can make decisions on your own. Daily 1:1 check-ins then review each night with you.
What happens at the daily check-ins?
You go over how the night and naps went, ask questions, and get the plan adjusted to how your baby is responding. Families describe quick responses, clear explanations and encouragement.
My partner is away a lot. Can I do this on my own?
Yes. Several parents in the reviews did most nights alone. Dr. Sam writes the plan around your household, and the coaching before night one prepares whoever is doing bedtime to make decisions with confidence.
