Infant Sleep
Support
SLEEP tends to be the #1 concern for most new parents. But there is SO MUCH conflicting information out there from self-proclaimed "experts", and well-intentioned advice, that it’s often hard to know where to turn for support!
Are you sick & tired of:
Nighttime tears?
Bedtime battles?
Stressful sleep time?
Fighting naps?
Hearing:
Just tough it out!
You NEED to train your baby!
You are SPOILING them!
Wondering:
Is this normal?
When will my baby sleep
through the night?
Holistic Sleep Strategies
offers a new approach to infant sleep.
Forget sleep training; this is sleep SCIENCE! Holistic Sleep Strategies is not a "one-size-fits-all" method, but an educational approach to support you in making well-informed decisions while SUPPORTING (not controlling) your baby's sleep. A holistic approach includes looking at your family's wellness as a whole, understanding the neuroscience of sleep in infants and adults, learning how to build a secure and healthy attachment, and protecting your child's mental health - both now and in the future.
Not only do I strive to get parents on the same page as far as infant sleep knowledge, but you will also learn about schedules, calming techniques, and ‘normal’ sleep patterns for a baby. You will learn how to follow your instincts and listen to your baby, and understand their developmental milestones. I want to help set the stage for good sleep habits so that your baby can grow up knowing that bedtime is a safe and peaceful time.

I WILL NOT:
-
"Sleep Train" your baby
-
Encourage any method where baby is left alone to cry
-
Endorse any behavior modification techniques
-
Guarantee that your newborn will sleep through the night by a certain age
-
Time or space feeds & comforting at night
-
Promote a "one-size-fits-all" solution for all families
-
Push night weaning
(unless you wish to do so at an appropriate age)
My Philosophy
There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to sleep. Parents should be well-informed about their options; learn the facts about normal infant sleep, understand the neuroscience behind it, and the effects on their child’s long-term mental health; only then can they formulate a strategy that works for THEIR family.
We will explore normal development and biology in order to support growth and bonding for optimal brain development. You will learn how to follow your instincts, listen to your baby, and understand their sleep patterns.
By understanding their basic biological needs and developmental milestones, you will be able to create a healthy and safe environment for your family to thrive.
I'm here for you!
