Sensible, practical and effective - By: M. E. Clift, 28 Apr 2008 
I feel like I had read about a million books by nanny experts & theorists about how to get your child to sleep & none of them seemed quite right until I came across this book. It does not treat the parent as some sort of neurotic, well meaning but slightly useless creature but empowers you to make a sensible choice of technique which is appropriate to you & your individual child, & which addresses specific sleep issues from night waking, to early rising. Highly recommended for anyone with a baby or child who would like to know how it feels to get eight hours sleep again!
Dr Freeland - By: T. A. FREELAND, 14 Jan 2008 
Oh my God!!!!! What an amazing find. It was my health visitor that asked me if I had read it & she was going to lend me her book. But being a bewildered Mum of my first 5 month old going on 3rd week of waking every 2 hours in the night, I was desperate & I just bought my own copy.
It is the best.
Gives you case studies, Found one exactly tailored to my situation, clear outlines of solutions.
The first night I started, he didn't wake at alll until 6:30 & that was huge for me.
Didn't even have to try the Controlled Crying Technique ( only did that once & I cried more than he did).
I wish this book got more promotion.
They can count on me as one. And as for Gina Ford.....................her Contented baby, Contented baby's first year, Contented baby's weaning book. Contented.......My ____.
I would recommend this book to hers any day of the week.

A LIFE SAVER! - By: , 29 Mar 2006 
We have found this book a life saver. Our daughter is 4 years old & has always had a problem with sleep & with another one on the way we wanted to get her sorted. We have been to the Millpond Clinic itself & now have bought the book.
The book is easy to follow & has realistic ways of sorting problems out. Nothing is too far fetched or difficult to follow & you don't leave your child crying for hours!! This book is a must have for any parent who needs straightforward advice on helping your child to sleep.
We have gone from a child who was shy & had no confidence due to overtiredness to a bright & confident 4 year old who now goes to sleep at a decent time & wakes up 11 hours later rather than at 5.00 am with 3 or 4 wake up times in the night.
Excellent, Excellent, Excellent.
