Little Ones‪™‬ 4+

Content - I’m a huge fan of the LO sleep programme because it’s helped my son sleep through the night since he was 3 months old, and he’s still a good sleeper now that he’s two. Every baby is different though so new parents should still manage their expectations. Plus sleep consultants being available to answer questions through the app is really handy.

App - The app has vastly improved (from the PDF and early app days) and I’m loving the current version. I like that the event schedule is easy to get to once you open the app and you can expand on the event to read troubleshooting notes. The whole programme is also easily accessible if you want to read through the how-tos and rationale behind the schedule. And as mentioned above, the Village is a great way to access advice and tips from sleep consultants.

I have a few features I’d like to suggest though:

- Sync to calendar for reminders so that I can see what’s next on the schedule on my Apple Watch. Or better yet, a LittleOnes Apple Watch Complication/widget similar to the Calendar Complication/widget. I don’t have my phone with me all the time so this would be useful.

- LittleOnes widget for iOS 14

- Ability to toggle on/off reminders for each child. For example, I want to get reminders for my newborn but I don’t need to see my 2y.o. son’s. But I’d still want to go in the app to check his schedule from time to time.

Thanks for your feedback! I will pass this to the development team

This app is brilliant and I hold it responsible for making our first year as new parents such a pleasure. We struggled with a colicky/reflux baby from about 3/4 weeks old and over tiredness was getting out of hand as a result. By the time the 4 month regression hit and I’d read the whole of the internet, Little Ones got advertised to me and I got on board. My partner and I often say that we wish we’d have found it sooner as we seen results and a much happier baby within a couple of days and it’s gotten better and better since. The constant updates of advice depending on baby’s age and all the available content to troubleshoot problems are fantastic, not to mention how knowledgeable and attentive the experts are when you pay extra for the village (which we paid for two months as we needed one to one help and it’s so worth it). Our little boy is coming up to 12 months old now and we will more than likely purchase the next package for his age. I have recommended this to so many people and they are all delighted with their results too. We are a happy, well rested family and I could go on and on about all the great things you can get from this app and programme. It’s a fraction of the price compared to 1-1 sleep consultants but you may only resolve sleep issues in the short term with a sleep consultant, whereas Little Ones supports you through all ages, regressions and transitions. Thank you! Xx

Thank you so much for your amazing review!

Firstly I think it’s awful to try and profit off desperate and sleep deprived mothers. If there’s a magic formula to fix your babies sleep issues it should be free. By all means charge for one to one advice (which you have to pay extra on the app for anyway). But there’s no reason to charge £60 for pre written schedules and troubleshooting advice.

Secondly I’ve been trying to make it work for 3 weeks now and it’s been horrific. Maybe the schedule would work but how do I get my baby on it in the first place, everyday is troubleshooting a different issue and I’m trying so hard to my own detriment to stick to the schedule. After paying more money to ask for help I was told even a 5/10 min variation to the nap time could throw the next nap off completely, so every-time I’m 5 mins off the schedule I’m about to breakdown because I haven’t slept in 5 months and the whole day is about to be ruined.

This app has made me feel that if the schedule isn’t working it’s my fault, making my mum guilt and stress levels go through the roof. It’s left me with an overtired stressed out baby and even less clue how to help than I had before. Not to mention all the money I wasted. Honestly think it’s a scam and can’t believe the creators are happy making millions off mothers desperation.
