Book Introduction
Everything New Parents Need to Know About Infant and Toddler Sleep Training

Sleep Better Baby, the industry's leading sleep education consulting company
A reliable sleep education guide from an official IPSP sleep education consultant in the United States.
Provides a sleep training schedule for babies from 0 to 24 months that even new parents can easily follow.

“Don’t babies just sleep when you lay them down?!”
Teach your child, who doesn't know how to fall asleep, how to fall asleep on their own!


Sleep training is teaching a baby, who has been in the mother's womb for ten months and has come out into the world without knowing how to fall asleep, 'how to fall asleep on their own.'

I didn't know putting a baby to sleep would be this hard!

As many pediatricians unanimously agree, 'baby sleep is a learned skill.'
So it's only natural that babies who haven't learned anything have trouble sleeping.
It's like forcing a child who hasn't even learned the Korean alphabet to "take a nap and wake up and write 'apple'! Other kids are good at it."
A child who cannot fall asleep 'on his own' will not be able to connect his sleep cycles on his own, much less sleep through them.

Don't worry! Our sleep training official consultants have you covered.

[Sleep Better Baby] has established itself as Korea's number one sleep consulting company.
Our sleep education experts, who are official IPSP sleep education consultants in the United States, help approximately 1,000 families with customized sleep education for their children each year.
The success rate of sleep training is 96% (the remaining 4% are those who gave up and could not start due to personal reasons).
We provide easy and friendly guidance based on our expertise and experience for new parents and children.


An essential guide for new parents, providing a weekly sleep training schedule for babies from 0 to 24 months.

Rather than waiting for the child to naturally distinguish between day and night when the child's biological rhythm is not yet developed, the mother should help the child adjust to the child's biological clock.
A detailed sleep training schedule to guide you.
You can refer to it and apply it according to your child's temperament and situation.

Let's start a happy parenting where parents and children sleep soundly and deeply!

Into the book
Sleep training is 'education that helps children fall asleep on their own and develop good, healthy sleeping habits.'
I think everyone needs sleep training to some degree.
Sleep training is not just about making your child cry for no reason, putting them in a separate sleeping position, or using the inaccurate Ferber method (a training method that gradually increases the length of intervention, often chosen because it produces quick results).

---p.19

Adults also pay attention to sleep habits and sleep hygiene.
There are things we always do repeatedly before going to bed, such as proper room temperature, lighting, a comfortable environment, and even personal hygiene like washing before going to bed.
The same goes for children.
As children grow into adults, sleep is directly related to their health and is one of the most important parts of life. It is a process of establishing good and healthy habits in children.

---p.20

Many pediatricians say that sleep training is essential for children and that sleep is a learned skill.
Because it is a skill that must be learned, as parents, we conduct sleep education to teach our children about quality sleep.
But the skills you have to learn take time.
How nice it would be if one day you could wake up smiling and not cry.
Sadly, that's not the reality.
Sleep training is like teaching a child to ride a bike for the first time.
You may fall a lot and get hurt.
You might cry.
I don't give up just because I haven't ridden it for a day or a week.
Go out and practice every day and eventually you will succeed.

---p.28

If you've tried one training method, stick with it for at least a week.
Consistency, remember? For example, if you chose the Ferber method, it worked, and it suited your parents' temperament, I recommend sticking with it. However, if you've experienced a devastating failure and have long since begun holding your child to sleep, it's okay to switch from the Ferber method to another method.
When it comes to changing a child's habits, consistency is always the most important.
If you have a consistent parenting style, your child will trust you and follow you.

---p.53

I know that I am a mother who cherishes her child and is doing her best, and that my feelings for my child have absolutely nothing to do with the way I breastfeed.
Even if you chose formula feeding for yourself as a mother, and even if you have to give up breastfeeding because you are not in a good condition, please do not forget that the most important choice you make as a mother is also the choice you make for your beloved child.
No matter what type of feeding you choose, the one that brings happiness to both mother and baby is the right choice! Please remember.

---p.85

For children who have difficulty sleeping, the beginning of sleep education is to provide a safe and quality sleep environment.
Rather than trying to sleep train a child in an unfamiliar environment filled with noise and light, where the child cannot sleep on their own, it would be much easier to train them in a well-equipped environment that allows them to sleep safely and hygienically.
We would like to emphasize once again the importance of safe sleep education.

---p.125

Even during the period when babies only sleep, there are some who do not sleep and say, “How can a newborn not sleep like this!”, and there are also some who sleep most of the time during the day and have their day and night schedules completely reversed to the point where you have to feed them.
You have to know the problem to solve it.
It's your responsibility as a parent to create a routine, and don't be discouraged if things don't go as planned.
The basic things that seem easy, like eating, sleeping, and playing, are still the most difficult.
---p.216

Publisher's Review
Teach your child, who doesn't know how to fall asleep, how to fall asleep on their own!

This book was created with the goal of covering the basics and concepts of sleep training and helping parents navigate the difficult times before and during childbirth.
If you are currently carrying a child, I think you will read this with the thought, 'I hope my child sleeps well and eats well.'
As someone who has been through this same thing, I wrote this with the thought that, as a veteran mother, “If I had known a little more and approached parenting, it wouldn’t have been this difficult.”
I hope this book will serve as a guide for all readers to easily understand and grasp the correct concepts about children's sleep and parenting.


We, too, are ordinary mothers raising children.
Each of us worked as career women, got married, and thankfully had children, gave birth, and are now fighting the battle of raising children.
I really struggled a lot with raising a newborn.
The breastfeeding expert I met in the recovery room warned that newborns should drink 10 to 20 ml at a time, and that drinking too much increases the risk of childhood obesity and diabetes.
The new parents were so nervous about his every word that they fed their baby only 20ml at a time.
For some reason, the baby cried so much that his throat became hoarse just two days after he returned home.

When the postpartum caregiver saw the baby, she said, “The baby cried all night because he was hungry because he ate too little.” She filled a bottle with formula milk and gave it to the baby, who ate it all up without leaving a single drop.
I can't tell you how much I cried looking at that sight and feeling sorry for the baby.
Feeding a baby was so hard.
The child's 'sleep' was even more difficult.


I bounced the ball for two hours to get the baby to sleep, put him down in the crib when he fell asleep, woke him up crying again, and repeated this process for a month and a half.
I had no wrists left, and my tailbone, which had been fractured during childbirth and not yet fully recovered, was still caring for the baby, and I was becoming increasingly exhausted.
I spent a long time trying to comfort her as she cried nonstop, watching her in a daze, and spending every night feeling frustrated, wondering what the problem might be.
He was the child I had been waiting for so long, but I never thought I would be hugging him and crying every night.
I was ashamed that I never thought I would become that kind of mother and just thought things would go according to plan.

No matter how much I watched YouTube and read professional books, I couldn't figure out how or when to put my child to sleep during the day.
YouTube says to put your child to bed at 7-8 PM, but my child starts getting ready for bed at 8 PM and only falls asleep at 10 PM.
By 8 o'clock at night, my heart was pounding and I was ready for battle.
Later, after studying sleep professionally and accurately, I realized that I should put my one-month-old baby to bed at 9 or 10 PM, and I really regretted it.
It was so frustrating that both the child and the parents suffered for two hours every day because an ignorant mother had acquired indiscriminate information that was not suitable for the child.


I thought I had prepared well by researching and reading books before giving birth, but this was the moment when I realized that 'knowledge alone is not enough for practical parenting.'
I desperately needed someone to tell me I was right, to give me the answers and give me direction.


The mother who came to Korea to help with my daughter's postpartum care said that she would let the baby sleep in the same room as me for a few days before returning to Korea, because she was worried that I would be too tired.
No, wouldn't it be great if the crying child were to sleep soundly while being patted on the stomach?
At that moment, my body felt comfortable, but my mind was very uncomfortable.


I was at a crossroads, wondering, 'What should I do? I was told not to let my baby sleep face down because of sudden infant death.'
For those few days, I was overwhelmed with thoughts like, 'It's too hard right now, so I'll put the baby to sleep like that, but will it be okay?' My mother also seemed uneasy and said, "It's okay! You slept like this too," but in reality, she would wake up in the middle of the night and check if the baby was breathing.


I started to study sleep education from the thought that 'I'm more worried about my child's safety than my own, so even if it's dangerous, I have to put my child to sleep like this.' From working as a nurse in an obstetrics and gynecology ward caring for patients and as a teacher teaching children, I began to study children's sleep in depth to help many mothers and children in need like us.

As a result of our study and hard work, we have obtained a certificate in infant and toddler sleep education in the United States.
I put the child to bed and studied day and night, even on weekends.
After a few months of studying, I started a small consulting firm and started helping new parents.
As a result of these efforts, we have established ourselves as the most famous sleep consulting firm in Korea.
Currently, a total of 13 certified sleep education experts are helping approximately 1,000 families with customized sleep education for their children each year.


Sleep Berry Baby's sleep training success rate is 96%, and the remaining 4% are those who gave up and were unable to start due to personal reasons.
I hope that those who do not want to undergo sleep training or are hesitant about doing so will find empathy, comfort, and accurate knowledge about sleep by reading this book.
