It's Never Too Late to Sleep Train

The Low-Stress Way to High-Quality Sleep for Babies, Kids, and Parents

By: Craig Canapari MD

Narrated by: Sean Runnette

From a leading pediatric sleep physician comes a revolutionary program that will have everyone in the house sleeping through the night.

When Dr. Craig Canapari became a father, he realized that all his years of 36-hour hospital shifts didn't even come close to preparing him for the sleep deprivation that comes with parenthood. The difference is that parents don’t get a break—it’s hard to know if there’s a night of uninterrupted sleep anywhere in the foreseeable future. Sleepless nights for kids mean sleepless nights for the rest of the family—and a grumpy group around the breakfast table in the morning.

In It's Never Too Late to Sleep Train, Canapari helps parents harness the power of habit to chart a clear path to high-quality sleep for their children. The result is a streamlined two-step sleep training plan that focuses on cues and consequences, the two elements that shape all habits and that take on special importance when it comes to kids’ bedtime routines.

Dr. Canapari distills years of clinical research and experience to make sleep training simple and stress-free. Even if you’ve been told that you’ve missed the optimal "window" for sleep training, Dr. Canapari is here to prove that it's never too late, whether your child is 6 months or 6 years old. He's on your side in the battle against bedtime, and with his advice, parents and children alike can expect a lifetime of healthy sleep.

Great tips for older children

Love that this book doesn’t shame you because of things you did or didn’t do when your child was younger. It gives you real tips to improve sleep and actions you can take NOW to improve your child’s sleep. This is helpful for children of all ages and addresses many issues including nursing to sleep, curtain calls after bedtime, setting appropriate bedtimes, etc. Loved it and would highly recommend!

Informative and flexible options/alternatives.

Gave good examples and related to real life to use different options on what works for your family.

Great!! Excellent advice!!!

This is an excellent book that gave me great advice, and many useful tips in which I was able to implement immediately

Finally!!! A solid plan that works!

This book gave me the needed tools to move my 3 and 4 year old boys into their own bed, FINALLY!!!!!I had two boys fourteen months apart. They lived in our bedroom due to space reasons for the first two years and slept in our bed out of habit developed from nursing. It has been such a long struggle of sleepless nights. We are on day three and have already seen such an improvement! For us, the magic was not laying down with them to go to sleep at night. My husband and I are taking turns with bringing them back to bed during the night. I KNOW this is going to work. I can feel it in my soul. No tears, no anxiety. This was just what we needed! Thank you!
