The FAQs of Life

How long do I have to complete the course?

You’ll have lifetime access to the course. If your baby isn’t born yet, we recommend watching Better Baby Sleep Bootcamp before she’s born—you’ll have the basics down, and you’re going to have less time when the baby is here. But the nice thing about baby sleep online training is that you’ll be able to come back and reference any time.

Can I add Better Baby Sleep Bootcamp to my registry?

If you’re using Babylist, just use their bookmark bar tool to add Better Baby Sleep Bootcamp (be sure to enter the price.)

Can I give the course as a gift?

Absolutely. Just sign up as yourself, email us (support@fathercraft.com) and we’ll transfer the membership.

If you have any questions, hit the chat button.

What ages does Better Baby Sleep Bootcamp Cover?

The majority of Better Baby Sleep Bootcamp is focused on strategies and techniques you can use to teach your baby to be a great sleeper during the critical 4-12 month age-range. So, if your baby is less than 12 months old, you’ll find lots of value.

Better Baby Sleep Bootcamp also teaches strategies that will set your child up to be a lifelong great sleeper.

What if I’m unhappy with the course?

We’ll build a gigantic pillow fort and go in there and cry, probably. But, if you’re unhappy for any reason, just let us know, we’ll refund you. We offer a 30-day no-questions asked money-back guarantee.

There’s nothing to return, no hoops to jump through — just shoot us an email (support@fathercraft.com), we’ll take care of the rest.

Tell me more about the instructors

John Do…. just kidding, we know you want to know about Dr. Natalie first.

Dr. Natalie Barnett, PhD, is Director of Clinical Research at Nanit Baby Monitors. Prior to Nanit, Natalie was a “sleep coach to the stars”—she provided private sleep coaching to families in NYC, including some names you’d probably recognize, but we can’t share. She earned a PhD in genetics, and has been teaching and researching baby sleep for over a decade. Natalie is also a mom of 3, so she has plenty of hands-on experience too.

John Doht is the co-founder of Fathercraft, teaches our flagship Father’s Ed course, and is dad to two boys.

What happens if I need help or have a question?

We’re here for you. support@fathercraft.com. We can’t answer medical questions, but your pediatrician can.

What payment options do you offer? Is there a payment plan?

We accept all major forms of credit card and PayPal. At this time we can only accept payment in U.S. dollars. 

Can I really learn how to get my baby to sleep through a course?

There are many factors that go into how and when babies sleep. Is there a magic how to get baby to sleep course that will solve all your problems? No. But our course, Better Baby Sleep Bootcamp, is designed to teach you the fundamental knowledge that can lead to more sleep for everyone in your household, and give you the confidence and plan to figure it out.

Question we didn’t answer?
Does the course require the 'cry it out' method?

Better Baby Sleep Bootcamp is designed to support various sleep training methodologies, and provide foundational strategies and tips that will make whatever sleep training method you choose to use more successful.

      I can’t say that this course can replace sleep consultant, but it definitely is very helpful and has a lot of information about infant sleep basics. Definitely very helpful for new parents!

      Coming into the kid thing blind you quickly realize how much you don’t know. Besides tips on how to get your mini me to sleep, more than anything this course helped me realize what was “normal” sleep behavior and what wasn’t. Although we sincerely valued the course, after falling short with baby sleep tactics, we ultimately hired a sleep consultant which was very helpful and realized how much everything in sleep school really does have to play in concert with each other. Love the aim- Dads (but not exclusive of all interested parents) who just want some plain language on how to best care for their new edition. Nice one fellas.
