Dear Parent:
Of course you are exhausted. Most parents of new babies are!
After my first son was born, my life became a blur. I was so sleep deprived from round-the-clock-nursing on top my usual daily activities, that I burst into tears when I took my baby for his second month check up at the pediatrician’s office.
“Is he sleeping through the night?” asked the doctor. “No,” I answered. Then she asked, “Is he sleeping in your room with you?” I sheepishly said “yes.”
She looked into my teary eyes, sat me down and said, “It is time for him to be in his own room, for your sake and his.” No sooner did she finish speaking, when I decided, then and there, to move my baby into his own crib in his own room, and teach him to sleep through the night.
I began my quest to find the very best way to gently train my baby to sleep all night. I talked to doctors, nurses, friends, and family. I listened carefully to what they said, and what they’d experienced. I discovered that others parents were exhausted from lack of sleep, just like me. They wanted help. I did, too. I was determined to find a solution.

“What a great baby shower gift! My dear friend Robin Ariola knows how to get
things done. I wish I had her eguide when my children were young!”
–Sonya Hopkins, The Plains, VA
"We have known Robin for 15 years, and can attest to her success as a mother. I've often wondered how Robin (and her husband) were so successful as parents. Now I know part of their secret! They gave their boys the gift of a good nights' rest at an early age, by training them to get to sleep.”
