## Full transcript of their video

Taken from the video's captions, recorded September 17, 2026. Lightly formatted into paragraphs; the words are as captioned.

Hey. So my name's Katie, and my, toddler is Ollie. He's two years and three months, and we've been kind of co sleeping basically the entire time. Once he became a toddler, we ended up buying a bed big enough for us to sleep in his bed with the intentions of, like, slowly getting him to be able to sleep on his own.

And, that kind of prevented him from ever really sleeping in our bed. But we were still co sleeping. And we realized that he just could not go to sleep on his own without one of us in there. And, you know, we tried to kinda get him used to sleeping without us.

But so we'd leave once he falls asleep. And then every time he'd wake up, like, three times a night, he'd come running in our room to get us. And then we were too tired to help him fall asleep and then leave his room again. So we just didn't really get anywhere.

So then I saw Samantha's ad on Facebook, and she just seemed really confident in what she's doing. So we just decided to go for it. And she got us all prepped and ready. And night one, Ollie he he cried.

It was okay, though. He's he's put himself to sleep and slept the whole night. The second night, cried significantly less and then put himself to sleep. And by the third night, he really just whined and he put himself to sleep.

So he shows that he understands what he's doing and it really was just that he wanted us there, but I know it's better for him and us if we all sleep better. And that's what we keep telling ourselves is that we're all getting better sleep now. So it's been really great having our evenings back and I would highly recommend actually sleeping.
