“Sleepy Planet gave us the skills, reassurance, and confidence we needed to make the dream of sleep a fast reality. This approach was truly amazing in helping our family to thrive and we are eternally grateful!”
—Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor, actors
“With compassion and expertise, Sleepy Planet targets your child’s specific sleep needs and supports parents through the emotional side of sleep learning. I highly recommend these methods as both a pediatrician and a mother.”
—Sonia Sethi, MD
“When I looked at it as sleep learning instead of sleep training, all my defenses came down. I was like, ‘My kid actually needs this. This is not me trying to morph my child into something he doesn’t want to do.’ And sure enough, within three days he took to it. These methods are absolutely incredible.”
—Ashley Graham, model and entrepreneur
“With their gentle approach, Sleepy Planet gave us the tools we needed to solve our daughter’s sleep problems.”
—Liza O’Brien and Conan O’Brien, television host
“Sleepy Planet has unparalleled success in giving my families a good night’s sleep and provides them with the skills for ongoing, long- term success.”

“Stop searching, you’ve found your sleep lifeline! For over twenty-five years, Sleepy Planet has been the crème de la crème of infant sleep consulting, and Sleep Easy Solution shows you exactly why. Based on sound principles, what truly sets this book apart is the empathy and genuine support it offers. Every 'what if' is answered with patience, understanding, and practical insight. Those hazy newborn days of sleep can be challenging, but having this guide on your bedside table will make all the difference.”
—Melisa Moore, PhD, DBSM, clinical psychologist board certified in behavioral sleep medicine and author of The Good Sleep Guide for Neurodivergent Kid
“What is the book (or books) you’ve given most as a gift, and why? I usually send [another book and] Sleepeasy Solution, by Jennifer Waldburger and Jill Spivack.”
—Ashton Kutcher, actor, as quoted in Tribe of Mentors by Tim Ferris
“Because a child’s health (and a parent’s sanity and patience) is at risk when he is sleep-deprived, helping him get a good night’s sleep is one of the most important things a parent can do. Sleepy Planet’s time-honored solutions ensure that parents have the right information and know how to lovingly support their child as he learns to find his path to consistent sleep. Jennifer and Jill’s methods succeed where many others fail. So many parents and children in my practice sleep tight thanks to Sleepy Planet! Many thanks to you both!”
—JJ Levenstein, MD
