Why the order matters

Four steps, the same every time.

E.A.S.Y. is the eat, play, sleep routine from Tracy Hogg's Secrets of the Baby Whisperer. It's not a strict clock. It's an order your baby learns to expect, and it gives your day a shape you can plan around.

E

Eat when they wake

A full feed straight after sleep, not to get them to sleep. Feeding stops being the only way down.

One tap to log
A

Activity while they're fresh

Cuddles, play, tummy time, a bath. Awake time happens after the feed, so a sleepy feed doesn't swallow it.

Live awake timer
S

Sleep on a plan

Down before they're overtired. You see when the next sleep is due, so you're not waiting for the yawns.

Next sleep, predicted
Y

You time

The step most routines forget. When baby sleeps, that time is yours. A predictable day means you can plan a meal, a shower or a nap.

Know your free time

What a routine gives you back.

Parents come to E.A.S.Y. for better sleep. They stay for how much calmer the whole day feels.

Fewer "is it hunger or tiredness?" moments

When you know where you are in the cycle, a cry is easier to read. Fed 40 minutes ago and been up an hour? Probably tired.

Feeding, not feeding to sleep

Putting the feed first, not last, helps break the habit of feeding to sleep. No cry it out needed.

A day you can plan around

See the next sleep and today's bedtime at a glance. Book the health visit, the coffee, the walk, at a time that works.

Time back for you

The Y is part of the routine for a reason. Rested parents cope better, and a predictable day makes rest possible.

See the plan

A routine you can see, not a black box.

Most baby apps hide a nap prediction behind a paywall, and it drifts as soon as a regression hits. Little Duckling lays the whole day out: the plan on the left, what really happened on the right.

  • Plan and real day, side by side. Every feed, activity and sleep in E.A.S.Y. order.
  • Re-plans when life happens. Short nap or a late feed? The rest of the day shifts to match, right up to bedtime.
  • Know where you stand. "6 min behind plan", next sleep at 12:06, bedtime 19:36. One glance, no maths at 3am.
Built for 3am

One hand, half asleep, done.

Big buttons, the amounts you actually use, and nothing to scroll. Log the feed and get back to the baby.

  • Bottle, breast or solids. Pick one, tap an amount, save.
  • Friendly to breastfeeding. No pressure to stretch feeds. Feed on cue and the plan follows your baby.
  • Fix it later. Forgot to log? Change the time on any entry in a tap.
Made for two

One baby, two phones, one plan.

A routine only works if everyone follows it. Share one baby's space with your partner, a grandparent or the nanny, so whoever has the baby knows exactly what comes next.

  • Live on both phones. Whoever's holding the baby logs, and it shows up for the other straight away.
  • Handovers without a briefing. "When did she last eat?" is answered before anyone asks.
  • Take turns on the Y. Know when the next sleep is, and trade who gets the break.

Grows with your baby

The right E.A.S.Y. for their age.

Tell Little Duckling your baby's name and birthday, and the plan starts from their age. As they grow, the cycle stretches out.

Newborn

Short, frequent cycles

Lots of feeds, short awake times, plenty of sleep. Often called E.A.S.Y. 3, for a roughly three-hour cycle.

Around 3 to 4 months

Stretching out

Feeds get quicker and awake time gets longer. A common time to move towards a longer cycle.

From around 4 months

Longer days, fewer naps

Often called E.A.S.Y. 4: more play between feeds and naps, which drop from three to two as the months go by.

Every baby is different. Use the plan as a guide, follow your baby's cues, and change it any time.

"In the first weeks every day blurred into one long feed. The E.A.S.Y. routine gave our days a shape, and our son started sleeping through the night. I built Little Duckling so the routine is there on your phone at 3am, and so both of you can follow it."

Questions parents ask.

What is the E.A.S.Y. routine?+

E.A.S.Y. stands for Eat, Activity, Sleep and You time. It's the eat, play, sleep routine Tracy Hogg described in Secrets of the Baby Whisperer: baby feeds when they wake, has some awake time, then sleeps, and you get a moment for yourself. It sets the order of the day rather than a strict clock.

Is E.A.S.Y. sleep training or cry it out?+

No. E.A.S.Y. is about the order of the day, not leaving a baby to cry. Little Duckling works alongside whatever settling approach you choose.

Does it work if I'm breastfeeding?+

Little Duckling never asks you to stretch feeds. Feed on cue, log it as breast, bottle or solids, and the rest of the day's plan moves to fit.

How is this different from a wake window app?+

Wake windows tell you when the next sleep might be. E.A.S.Y. also tells you what comes next and in what order. Little Duckling shows both: the next sleep time and the full plan for the day, side by side with what actually happened.

Can both parents use Little Duckling?+

Yes. You share one baby's space. Whoever is holding the baby logs, and it shows up on both phones straight away.

How much does it cost?+

Little Duckling is free to start. It works in the browser on any phone, with nothing to install.
