Here we break down step-by-step how the Smart Sleep Coach by Pampers app works

  1. Take your free sleep assessment: First you complete 3-minute sleep quiz that asks questions about your baby’s age, sleep patterns, and routine.  
  1. Get your personalized plan: Based on your answers the app designs a sleep plan to help you improve your baby’s overall sleep and tackle any of your baby’s unique sleep challenges.
  1. Download the app: Your personalized plan becomes available on the Smart Sleep Coach by Pampers app. You can download the app via the iOS App Store and Google Store and log in to access your plan.  
  1. Choose your subscription: You will have the option to choose a one month plan or a discounted three month or annual plan. Most subscriptions come with access to a 7-day free trial, meaning you get access to your personalized plan and Smart Sleep Coach’s suite of resources free for a week. Many parents start seeing improvements in their babies’ sleep after just a few days! Curious about what is the cost of Smart Sleep Coach by Pampers?
  1. Start following your plan: The app delivers your plan through short mini-courses that guide you through every step. Your personalized holistic baby sleep plan first focuses on making sure your baby’s sleep fundamentals are in place, such as their right nap times and bedtime, the perfect bedtime routine, and the right sleep environment. Sometimes these changes are all your baby needs for sleep success
  1. Track your baby’s sleep: When you start tracking your baby’s sleep and wake times in the app, it will begin to recommend sleep times so that baby’s sleep schedule is in tune with their biological rhythms. The app’s Smart Schedule follows your baby’s wake windows (not the clock) and includes 1-click sleep training, making it easy to track when a nap or bedtime starts and stops, and any wake ups or feedings. The Smart Schedule will adjust your baby’s schedule based on how long they sleep and when they sleep to ensure they are in line with their natural rhythms.  
  1. (Optional) Explore sleep training methods: If you are interested in virtual sleep training support, the app can help you choose a sleep training method that may work for your baby. Some approaches to Smart Sleep Coach sleep training offer more handholding and gradually reduce your support as they start falling asleep in their crib on their own. Other methods of sleep training work faster, with less support. You can change your sleep training method at any time.
  1. (Optional) Unlock sleep training mode: Once your baby’s sleep fundamentals are set, and your baby is old enough and ready for sleep training, the app will unlock sleep training mode, with the goal to get your baby used to falling asleep – and falling back asleep – independently. Regardless of which sleep training method you choose, all forms of sleep training begin with responding to your baby’s needs and making sure they have eaten and are clean and comfortable.  

Final Thoughts

If you want to feel more in control of your baby’s sleep, help your baby master the act of falling asleep, and instill healthy sleep habits that will last a lifetime, the Smart Sleep Coach by Pampers app is worth a try.

FAQs:

When we approach sleep training and sleep coaching, we must do it holistically. The first part of successful sleep training is making sure your baby’s sleep is aligned with their biological rhythms and getting their sleep environment and routines set up. Your baby will not sleep well if they aren’t tired (or are overtired), don’t understand that it’s bedtime, or if their room is too bright or loud. For some babies, this is all they need to fall asleep faster – and stay asleep longer. For other babies, they still need additional support to fall asleep independently. This could be because of a sleep crutch or sleep habit they need to stop relying on, or they simply need the space and time to master falling asleep. This is where sleep training or sleep coaching comes in. By getting into sleep training without the fundamentals, you’re reducing the chances of success. It would be just like showing up to a soccer match without your cleats or socks, not having had breakfast or enough water, and maybe not sleeping well.

Baby sleep changes often as they grow and isn’t linear. Sleep regression, changes in sleep needs, separation anxiety, and more can cause setbacks in sleep, even if you have successfully sleep trained your baby. Habits also play a huge role in sleep, so any new habit can affect your baby's sleep. For example, what if you’ve been sharing a room because you had family visiting and they used your baby’s room, and now your baby doesn’t want to go back in their own room? Once your baby has successfully learned how to become an independent sleeper, getting sleep back on track is easier – since you know they can do it. With the support of the Smart Sleep Coach app, you can re-instate their past sleep training method and fundamentals and revert to better sleep habits fast.

Many babies start to sleep through the night when using the Smart Sleep Coach by Pampers app without having to be formerly sleep trained. Smart Sleep Coach can help you build healthy sleep habits and ensure your baby's sleep schedule, routine, and environment are in place. For many babies, this is all they need to start sleeping like a dream.

The Smart Sleep Coach app by Pampers can be used as a sleep schedule app. The Smart Sleep Coach Sleep Schedule improves your baby or toddler's sleep telling you when they should be put to sleep based their natural rhythm. This is proven to help your baby fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer. The Smart Sleep Coach app also includes an exclusive content library, insights based on sleeps tracked in the app, step-by-step mini-courses, access to real sleep consultants, and the option of sleep training.
