You don't need to suffer sleepless nights with no end in sight.

Caring for a baby is exhausting. The last thing you need is your baby waking at all hours of the night.

You've probably gone down the Google rabbit hole, trying out different cookie-cutter schedules and methods that have big promises, only to be let down time and time again. You need something that will actually work for YOUR baby.

Maybe you've tried a sleep training method, but at the end everyone was crying.

You try to get your partner to help, but your baby only wants you. These days it seems like all you do is argue about how to get more sleep. You don't want to carry this burden alone.

You want to actually enjoy bedtime and be able to spend time with your spouse or friends without needing to be home again in an hour.​

Getting your baby to sleep shouldn't be this hard.​

That's why we've teamed with a baby sleep expert to create a couples-focused baby sleep course that empowers BOTH parents to get their baby to sleep with confidence.​

  • Andrea De La Torre

    Andrea has been a baby sleep consultant for 7 years, since her first baby refused to sleep well. She knew there had to be a way to understand sleep and then make it happen instead of relying on crying it out. She found a way and has since helped thousands of families sleep. Andrea grew up all over the world and is now a mom of 3, business owner, children’s author, and avid crocheter.

  • Jessica Lagrone, DONA, CCCE

    Jessica is a Certified Childbirth Educator (CAPPA), Certified Birth Doula (DONA) and mom of three girls. With her first, Jessica was so frustrated at all the information out there about newborn care that seemed to contradict itself. It was this reality that inspired her to create Balanced Families® - a place for truly balanced, un-biased and evidence-based information for families.

  • Ben Lagrone, Ed.S

    Ben is a Dad Coach and Education Specialist. He co-founded Balanced Families® with Jessica to provide dads and birth partners with the tools they need to support their loved ones and take care of their babies. It is the dad-perspective and couples-focused instruction that make this newborn class so unique!
