Family Sleep Coaching
You're not alone.
No matter how natural, positive, and fulfilling your birth journey was, your body has experienced a monumental physical event and requires rest, nutrition, rest, support, rest, comfort, and even more rest. Adjustments, both emotional and physical, can be simultaneously rewarding and exhausting.
Too often, "sleep training" is about what is wrong with your baby. Typically, our expectations are unrealistic. Your newborn has experienced a seismic shift in her world.
She has literally been INSIDE you for nine months. Now she has to adjust to everything SEPARATE from you.
Your child is normal, night time feedings are necessary, and more often than not, YOU are her only source of comfort.
My goal is to educate you about infant development, age-related sleep requirements, setting up a healthy sleep environment, and how to introduce rituals. All so that you will experience success in my absence.
