Infant Development

Based on the human rest and activity cycle that occurs every hour and a half, here’s a kinder, gentler, and better way to put your baby to sleep. The result: truly restful daytime naps (which also give an infant a head start on cognitive development and emotional intelligence) and consistent nighttime sleep—as beneficial for parents as it is for the baby.

Babies like Juniper, born at the edge of viability, trigger the question: Which is the greater act of love - to save her or to let her go? Kelley and Thomas French chose to fight for Juniper's life, and this is their incredible tale.
