Gentler nights, without the guesswork.
A sleep plan written for your baby, your home and your limits — plus a patient AI sleep coach who has read it and answers at 3am — on the site or by email.
An online alternative to hiring an infant sleep consultant — the same questions, the same kind of plan, in minutes.
- Built on published research
- AAP safe-sleep guidance, always
- No cry-it-out required
- Coach by chat or email
Most of what you have read about baby sleep is somebody’s opinion.
We built Lamplight on the published research instead — and on saying “we don’t know” when that is the true answer.
Every baby wakes at night
Overnight video studies show the number of times a baby actually wakes barely changes across the first year. What changes is whether they call for you. That is the thing we work on — calmly, at your pace.
The normal range is enormous
At six months, healthy babies sleep anywhere from under nine hours a day to seventeen. Comparing your baby to an app’s “target” is comparing a person to the midpoint of a very wide range.
Your sleep counts too
One protected four-to-five-hour block of sleep for you is often the fastest, best-supported change a family can make. It is in every plan we write.
A plan for your baby — not a template with a name pasted in.
Ten minutes of honest answers about where your baby sleeps, how they fall asleep, what a typical night looks like, what you are willing to do and what you are not. From that we write a plan that fits: an age-appropriate routine, a day-and-nap rhythm, the settling approach you chose, a night-by-night guide for the first two weeks, and a safe-sleep check of your set-up.
- Indexed to your baby’s age (corrected, if born early)
- Gentle by default — you choose how much fussing is okay
- Ready in minutes — in your account and your inbox
- A clear “when to call your pediatrician” card
- Printable, and yours to keep
Someone steady to talk to at 3am.
The coach knows which night you are on. Standing outside the door at 2 a.m., you get the next step with the clock on it; in the morning, send four numbers and it reads them against your plan and sends tonight’s row; when the numbers call for a change, it makes the change and writes it into your plan. Ask it anything else too — the nap that vanished, the trip to grandma’s, the teething night — in plain words, grounded in the same research library your plan came from, always inside safe-sleep guidance.
It also knows what it is not. It does not diagnose, it never recommends medication or supplements, and when something needs a doctor it says so and tells you what to ask.
Reach it however is closest to hand: the chat on your account page, or an email from your own inbox. Same coach, same memory of your family.

The Sleep Plan
A written plan for your baby, your home and your limits.
- A 10-minute questionnaire about your baby, your nights and what you're willing to do
- A real plan, not advice: the approach chosen for your baby, exact check times or chair positions for each of the first 14 nights, bedtime and nap times worked out for your baby, a night-feed plan with windows, and decision points on nights 3, 5, 7 and 14
- A safe-sleep check of your set-up and a "when to call your pediatrician" card
- Ready in a few minutes — in your account and your inbox
- Printable, downloadable as Word, and yours to keep
Just the plan. You can add the coach afterwards from your account page.
Plan + Coach
The plan, plus a coach in your corner for the nights that follow.
- Everything in the Sleep Plan
- 90 days of the AI Sleep Coach — three months of support
- Ask anything, any hour — on the website or by email
- The coach knows which night you are on and gives tonight's exact next step — at 2 a.m. or over morning coffee
- Knows the limits: it sends you to your pediatrician when something needs one
One payment, nothing renews. After 90 days the coach simply pauses — keep it for $19/month if you want it, or not. Your plan is yours either way.
Keeping the coach afterwards
When your bundle's 90 days are up, plan holders can keep the coach for $19 a month from their account page — cancel any time. The coach isn't sold on its own: it works from your questionnaire and your plan.
Secure payment by Stripe. Lamplight is parenting education and comfort support, not medical advice.
Built by parents who wanted the evidence
Lamplight started after our own long nights, when every article contradicted the last one and none of them said what the research actually showed. So we went and read it: several hundred published sources on infant sleep and safe sleep, citations checked, corrections logged. Lamplight is the plan we wish someone had handed us — honest about the normal range, careful about safety, kind about the choices families make, and clear about when it’s time to call the pediatrician instead.

What exactly is in the Personalized Sleep Plan, and what does it cost?
A written plan, usually twenty pages, built from your questionnaire. It opens with a one-page fridge sheet — your start night, bedtime, wake time, nap times, the routine with clock times, the exact words at lights-out, tonight's response and the night-feed windows — and then gives the detail behind it: why this approach for your baby, bedtime and 2 a.m. step by step, a table of the first 14 nights with the exact check intervals or chair position for each one, days and naps, decision points on nights 3, 5, 7 and 14, a safe-sleep check of your set-up, a section on your own sleep, troubleshooting and a "when to call your pediatrician" card. It is written for your baby, your home and your limits — not a template with a name pasted in. The plan on its own is $79; the Plan + Coach bundle is $129 and includes 90 days of the AI Sleep Coach.
How is the plan made? Is it written by AI?
Your answers are turned into a first draft by our AI plan writer, which works from a research library we compiled — several hundred published sources on infant sleep, safe sleep and what the evidence does and doesn't support. The plan is generated and delivered to your account automatically, usually within a few minutes, with a link sent to your inbox. If your answers raise a health or safety flag, the plan addresses it directly and tells you plainly what belongs with your pediatrician rather than with us.
Will you make me do cry-it-out?
No. The questionnaire asks how you feel about crying and what you are not willing to do, and the plan is built around those answers. Many families choose a no-crying approach. For babies under six months there is no sleep training of any kind — only foundations — because those methods have never been tested that young.
Is this medical advice?
No. Lamplight provides parenting education — routines, environment, comfort techniques and expectation-setting — and homemaking support for tired families. We are not medical providers, we do not diagnose or treat anything, and we will always send you to your pediatrician when something needs one. Your plan includes a clear list of the things that should go to a doctor rather than to us.
What is the AI Sleep Coach, really?
A chat-based coach, available any hour, that has read your questionnaire and your plan. It is built on a large language model from Microsoft (Azure OpenAI), with a long set of instructions written by us: the research it may draw on, the safe-sleep rules it must never soften, the questions it must route to a pediatrician, and the tone it should take with a parent at 3am. It is not a person and it is not a doctor. It is very good at steady, specific, research-grounded encouragement when you need it.
A little light for the long nights.
A written plan for your baby, your home and your limits from $79 — or $129 with 90 days of the AI Sleep Coach included.
