## Full transcript of their video

Taken from the video's captions, recorded August 26, 2026. Lightly formatted into paragraphs; the words are as captioned.

Hello. I'm Melissa, and I chose actually sleeping because my baby was not sleeping through the night. She would wake up, two, three times during the night. We'd have to rock her to sleep after feeding thirty, forty minutes.

She would fight the cribs, fight her naps, wasn't getting increasingly fussy due to the sleep deprivation. We were sleep deprived. She was sleep deprived, and it was a very unhappy situation, and I was working nights as well. But then we found actually sleeping, and I just love the way that they coached me through everything, gave me detailed steps on what to do, answered every single question that I had, even the smallest little detailed question about a certain scenario and situation.

She Sam was amazing to respond quickly and give me step by step and the explanation behind everything that we were doing to help Leah sleep better. And before we knew it, in a few days, it wasn't even a week, Leah was already sleeping through the night. And she was she was still little, so she would still get some night feedings, like, about a night feeding a night at the beginning. But then she would go right back to sleep in her crib, no problem, all by herself.

And then she started sleeping through the night. No more night feeds. She did that on her own. All her naps are now in the crib.

She sleeps all her naps by herself now. We have a better set schedule for her, better bedtime routine. Everything just feels way more controlled, and Leah's happier. I'm happier.

We're all getting great sleep in our house, and we're just so proud of Leah and happy for and so thankful for Sam for all the help that she gave us to help her sleep better and help us be happier, better parents.
