Sleep Consulting
WHAT IS
FOR ANYONE - ANYWHERE
Your baby is here and you are over the moon, but you haven’t slept more than a two hour stretch for months and you need things to change.
As a sleep consultant, I draw on my experience and vast knowledge base as I listen to your unique circumstances before constructing a customized sleep plan for your family. I will offer a client-led approach so that you feel confident that your method of sleep training is in alignment with your parenting style and family values.
Consulting is done virtually, so distance isn't a barrier to getting the help and support you need.
Is this just for infants?
Absolutely Not
It's very common for parents of toddlers to still have sleep issues. Sometimes it develops later when they become a toddler or even as they approach school age.
I love helping families with older babies and young children get better sleep! It's rewarding to see them being an active participant in their own growth.

What You Can Expect
I'm here for you!
As your sleep consultant, I'll be available to offer you unlimited support via text, email, and scheduled phone or video calls during the first two weeks you implement your plan. I'll help you and your child form new healthy habits and sleep hygiene.
It's likely you may want additional support or have questions beyond our initial session. Our relationship doesn't abruptly end, but instead you now have me on your team and I'm always available for care and support.

The Science
Over the past few decades, studies have shown that sleep training your child is safe and effective. Your child will not be damaged emotionally or developmentally if you choose to sleep train. Attachment is not broken if your child cries a little bit while learning to sleep independently. One study in particular did find that parents who sleep trained their children reported fewer clinical depression symptoms. A two year follow up to this study found that sleep training does not affect your child’s mental health or your parenting style.
So parents can ditch the guilt and start working towards better sleep now. The benefits greatly outweigh the potential risk. Quality sleep is a basic human need and sometimes along our parenting journey we are humbled and do things we never thought we would do. It is okay to prioritize your need for sleep. Because the science is clear that sleep deprivation affects every other aspect of your life.
