Participation Fee

Why is it called a participation fee?

SLEEPO is a nonprofit family program, not a commercial story subscription. The heavily subsidized price is for families' ongoing involvement & commitment to the program.

Founding Family Pricing

As an early nonprofit still building our community, we're currently offering 50% off the participation fee for families who join now as Founding Families. This discount applies to our full pricing — including the sibling rate — and stays with you for as long as you remain an active, continuously enrolled family in the SLEEPO program. For one child, that brings the rate down to $25 per month.

You start with your first month free (no credit card required).

How much does SLEEPO cost?

Our standard participation fee is $50 per month for the first child and $40 for each additional sibling. Families joining now receive our 50% Founding Family rate, bringing the current fee to $25 per month for one child, $45 for two children, $65 for three, and $85 for four.

Children enrolled	Monthly fee
One child	$50$25
Two children	$90$45
Three children	$130$65
Four children	$170$85

Prices shown reflect the current 50% Founding Family discount off our standard rate.

Each enrolled child has an individual profile and personalized story experience.

Who qualifies for the additional-sibling rate?

The sibling rate applies to each additional sibling enrolled as part of the same family. Contact us if you have questions about a particular family arrangement.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There's no long-term contract — you can cancel whenever it makes sense for your family, with no notice required. Your subscription stays active through the end of your current paid month, so you'll have full access until then.

Can I pause my subscription instead of cancelling?

Under special circumstances, we're able to offer a one-month pause of your subscription. This can help preserve your current rate if you think you might return. Reach out to us at amit@sleepofoundation.org and we'll take a look at what works for your family.

What happens if I re-enroll after cancelling?

Re-enrollment is available at our regular, full participation fee rate. Any discounted or founding family pricing applies only to an active, continuous subscription and is not retained after cancellation.

Where do participation fees go?

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, SLEEPO uses participation fees and donations together to sustain the program and fund access for families who need additional support.

Is financial assistance available?

Sponsored participation or financial assistance may be available depending on current donations and program resources. Families who need support are encouraged to contact SLEEPO privately at amit@sleepofoundation.org.

Are participation fees tax-deductible?

A fee paid in exchange for program participation is generally different from a charitable donation. Please consult a qualified tax professional about your situation. Separate donations to SLEEPO Foundation may be tax-deductible as permitted by law.
