Yes, I've been. I went with DH, and DS when he was about 8 months old. To be honest I had high expectations that unfortunately weren't met. From what I read about her seminars I though that Pinky would give lots of advice on how to settle a baby off to sleep and basically give us some tips on how to improve DS's sleep habits. We actually left no more wiser than when we arrived. BUT, if you want affirmation that gentle sleep techniques are the best thing for a baby (rather than things like crying it out techniques) then she definitely does that. The seminar I went to focused on things like studies showing that gentle techniques are better for a baby's emotional and mental well-being both now and later in life.
My husband was extremely disappointed in the seminar, but I guess I at least came out knowing that while our DS was not a great sleeper and we had no more idea how to improve things, at least the way we were dealing with things was the "right" way according to Pinky and many studies.
In the end we changed absolutely nothing with what we did for DS's sleeping, and at 19 months of age he started sleeping through the night and has been a great night sleeper ever since. He rarely wakes through the night now, and if he does it's only once and there's usually a reason (like rolling over onto a toy he insisted on taking to bed, lol).
Good luck!![]()
