"Sleep training" can be a loaded phrase, but the way we use it here is our method to teach your child how to successfully sleep independently in the most gentle ways possible, decreasing night wakings, lengthening naps and supporting better sleep for a happy baby.

Did you know that new studies show that nearly half of children aren't getting the recommended sleep they need?  This can show up in many ways from erratic naps, frequent night wakings, early morning wakings, and so much more.  This impacts their development as well as their overall well-being. Children are also sensitive to changes and developmental milestones which can also further impact sleep. This is what drives our passion and purpose, to create custom sleep plans or training to help you navigate through these problems.

The Cry-it-out (CIO) method is usually used to describe allowing your child to cry for extended long periods of time, unregulated, and alone which is not something that we utilize or recommend.  Our methods are modified and uniquely designed for your child's age and personality.  They are evidence-based, and approved by medical professionals.  

YES!  Our methods can be used even if you are still co-sleeping with your child.  AAP actually recommends room-sharing up to 12 months of age.  We also provide methods on gently transitioning your child to their own room that still supports bonding and closeness.

A child can NEVER be too young to start laying healthy sleep foundations, and we actually highly recommend that you start with good sleep habits as a newborn. We have a program for that and adjust our plans according to age and what is developmentally appropriate for your child. Traditional and formal sleep training can also occur when your child is at least 4 months of age and 12-13 lbs of weight.  

Our program supports ages up to 36 months of age!  It is not too late to start sleep training to get them prepared for even better sleep, even if they have always woken at night or room shared.  We have methods for teaching independent sleep skills that span across ages and developmental ranges.

NOT AT ALL!  Our programs are made to provide your child with healthy habits long term that actually provide you MORE flexibility in your day while also still being able to attain great sleep.  We also provide consultation on time changes and travel.

We have a range of options available, from classes, access to a library of resources and templates to consulting packages where you will work with a certified pediatric sleep consultant directly.   These two programs available for consulting include our Mini-Camp which is designed for families who just need a little help solidifying their sleep plan, but feel they can implement without much additional help.  Our Happy Baby Bootcamp is designed for full consultation with design through implementation support to get you through the storming and forming of developing those good sleep habits.

This will depend on your family's timelines and the method we decide to implement.  The methods we provide can be a slow, gradual approach where we target one sleep obstacle at a time, or we can work on a more rapid approach that addresses more than one sleep issue.  Any underlying medical issues can also impact our timeline.  However, we will target an appropriate timeline that works for your family and your child.
