Precious Little Sleep
The most thorough free infant sleep education on the internet
Precious Little Sleep is what you get when someone who genuinely understands infant sleep science decides to explain all of it for free. Alexis Dubief's blog is unusually thorough — posts cover the neurological basis of infant sleep, a full taxonomy of sleep training methods, and age-by-age guidance without ever feeling preachy or prescriptive. For parents who want to actually understand why their baby sleeps the way they do before deciding what to do about it, this is the best free resource available.
✓ Pros
- The free content depth is unmatched — Alexis Dubief publishes genuinely exhaustive explainers on every infant sleep topic without putting the useful parts behind a paywall
- Evidence-based framing with citations means parents can trust what they are reading rather than just hoping it is accurate
- Covers the full spectrum of sleep approaches without dogma — useful whether you are comfortable with cry-it-out or determined to avoid it
✕ Cons
- The depth that makes it excellent also makes it dense — some posts run long for parents with five minutes between feeds
- Site design and navigation feel dated compared to newer blogs built for mobile-first reading
