Gentle month-by-month sleep guidance, delivered straight to your inbox, to help you feel calmer and more prepared for your baby’s next shift💛
Becoming a parent brings so much joy and just as many questions, especially around sleep.
I created this monthly email series to give you clarity and confidence throughout your baby’s first year, so you never feel like you’re guessing your way through each new stage and you never need to spend hours searching the internet for answers.
Every month, a week before your little one turns a month older, you’ll receive a supportive, easy‑to‑digest email that contains everything you need to know about sleep for the upcoming month, including:
✓ Their awake windows, number of naps, nap durations and max sleep during the day.
✓ Bedtimes, sleep durations, morning wake times for night sleep.
✓ Insight into any upcoming sleep regressions, developmental leaps and milestones.
✓ Tips on how to tailor all the ‘norms’ to your unique baby and family.
✓ What day and night Sleep Routines can look like.
✓ An overview of Sleep Environments that promote safe, deep sleep.
✓ Feeding patterns that create more restful sleep.
✓ What science says is “normal” and what you might want to double check.
I’m not here to tell you what to do or how you or your little one should sleep. I’m here to offer you gentle guidance so you can make an informed choice that feels right for your family and to help you feel less alone through all the ups, downs and constant changes.
My hope is that these emails become a calm, reassuring companion that allow you to enjoy your baby with a little more ease and a little more rest for your whole family too 💜
Already supporting more than 180 families with babies in their first months.

A Little Bit About Me
I’m Lara — mum to two little boys, dog‑mum to Summer and Zazu, and the heart behind Lara’s Little Dreamers. My husband and I are originally from South Africa, but we’ve built our little family here in the Netherlands, navigating the beautiful (and sometimes challenging) expat life. I learned about baby sleep the hard way, long before any certifications — through exhaustion, trial and error, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with loving your baby deeply while feeling completely drained. That journey is what led me to become a certified Pediatric Sleep Specialist and newborn specialist, and it’s why I’m so passionate about supporting families with a gentle, open‑minded approach.
I truly believe sleep is a foundation for the wellbeing of the whole family, and I know how transformative it feels when things finally click. That’s why I created this email series — to give parents the knowledge, clarity, and reassurance I wish I had in those early months. My hope is that these monthly guides help you understand your baby’s sleep more easily, feel prepared for what’s coming next, and enjoy your little one with more confidence, calm, and connection 💜
A Little Bit About My Approach
My philosophy when it comes to sleep is based on the belief that your little one’s sleep is only a “problem” if it feels like one for you. As a parent, you get to decide what matters most, what your version of “ideal” looks like, and the pace that feels right for your family. My role is simply to meet you where you are, without judgement, and offer clarity, reassurance, and realistic guidance.
The way I approach sleep is shaped by my Little House of Sleep — a gentle, holistic framework that looks at the whole picture: development, environment, routines, feeding, connection, and the foundations that help sleep unfold more naturally. Within this approach, families can choose between sleep training or sleep shaping, depending on what aligns with their values and comfort. No matter the path, the goal is always the same: to support your little one in learning healthy sleep skills in a way that feels respectful, responsive, and sustainable.
So appreciative of what parents have said 💜
Questions that have come up before
-
When you join, you get immediate access to your baby’s current month and all previous months. No payment walls, no content blocked. You’ll receive the full monthly sleep mail right away, and you won’t be charged for the first 30 days. If you decide it’s not for you, you can cancel before the trial ends.
-
After 30 days, your subscription continues automatically at €9/month. You’ll keep receiving your baby’s age‑specific monthly sleep mail until you cancel.
-
Yes. There’s no minimum commitment. You can cancel with one click, anytime, and you’ll keep access until the end of your billing period. The cancellation link is in the footer of every email.
-
The monthly sleep mails cover babies from newborn to 12 months. Each month is tailored to what’s developmentally happening at that exact age.
-
That’s completely normal. Babies don’t switch stages on their exact “month birthday.” If your baby is between months, simply choose the month that feels closest and you can switch at any time if needed.
-
Every month you’ll receive a clear, structured email covering:
what’s happening developmentally
what to expect with naps and nights
feeding and stimulation insights
routine and environment guidance
milestones and regressions
norms and reassurance
It’s everything you need to understand this stage and feel confident about what’s next
-
Yes, it’s gentle. No, it does not involve cry‑it‑out! I focus on understanding your baby, following their cues, and creating predictable rhythms. And most importantly - you can get to choose from the mails what you apply and how.
-
Every baby is unique. The monthly guidance is based on what’s typical for most babies, but you’re always encouraged to adapt it to your little one. The goal is clarity and confidence, not perfection.
-
The mails are not:
a sleep‑training program,
a cry‑it‑out method,
a rigid schedule you have to follow
1:1 coaching.
Instead, it gives you gentle, age‑specific guidance that helps you understand what’s happening each month and how to support your baby’s sleep in a realistic, responsive way
-
That’s completely okay. The mails are designed to be simple, gentle, and easy to digest even on your most exhausted days. That’s why I chose mails in the first place - it gives only the right amount of information, when you need it - no more. Each monthly guide is short, clear, and focused on what actually matters right now. You don’t need to “do everything” to see benefits. Even small shifts in understanding your baby’s sleep can make your days and nights feel calmer and more predictable.
