Your baby needs to be rocked to sleep.
You finally get them asleep, carefully lower them into the crib...
And their eyes pop right back open.
So you spend another 20 minutes getting them back to sleep.
Maybe bedtime takes an hour.
Maybe naps only happen in your arms.
Maybe your once-great-sleeping toddler has suddenly decided they're scared of their room.
Maybe the transition to a big-kid bed didn't go quite as planned.
Or maybe you feel like you spend more time getting your child to sleep than they actually spend sleeping.
You've tried everything- and you're STILL exhausted.
You've googled it.
Asked your friends.
Talked to your pediatrician.
You've read the books, saved the schedules, and tried the tips.
But you don't need more general advice about sleep.
You need a personalized plan that supports YOUR family.
What Sleep Training & Independent Sleep Really Means:
Sleep training isn’t about leaving your child to cry or forcing them to “figure it out” on their own.
It’s about tuning in to your child and teaching age-appropriate, healthy & parent present ways for your child to fall asleep and resettle- while you both feel safe, supported, and connected.
Babies aren't born knowing how to independently settle themselves to sleep. As they grow and develop, they can learn these skills- and it's okay to help them get there.
Independent sleep means your child can fall asleep and resettle with less hands-on help from you. That might mean they no longer need to be rocked, held, or fed all the way to sleep.
It doesn't mean they never need you.
It doesn't mean they never wake up during the night.
And it Certainly doesn't mean you have to stop comforting your child.
It means giving them the skills and confidence to sleep well while giving you the freedom to rest too.
Hi, I'm Emily! I'm a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant who helps families with newborns, infants, and toddlers to build healthy sleep foundations and turn sleep into a calm, relaxing, and enjoyable part of their day.
I believe better sleep isn't about having a "perfect" sleeper.
It's about understanding your child and creating a plan that actually works for your family.

What Well Rested Parents Say
"We worked with Emily with our 5 month old and it was truly life-changing. Before starting, our baby was struggling with frequent wake ups and taking a long time to fall asleep at night. Emily took the time to understand our baby's personality, our parenting style, and our goals, and created a gentle, realistic plan that actuall worked for us.
Within just a few days, we started seeing huge improvements- more crib naps, smoother bedtime routines, and a much happier, well rested baby. What stood out the most was her incredible support throughout the process. We always felt guided and encouraged, never pressured.
If your on the fence about working with a sleep consultant, dont hesitate. Emily is amazing and truly cares about helping famies rest better. We're so grateful for everything she did for us!"
"It was wonderful working with Emily! She recommended her two week virtual sleep plan that includes a customized comprehensive written plan. My 6 month old went from having to be exclusively held or fed to sleep to falling asleep all by herself! We can now put her down awake for naps and bedtime on her own in her crib. I highly recommend Emily, she was very encouraging and responsive during our two weeks together."

" I came in contact with you through Facebook and reached out looking for support with my newborn. The one on one communication throughout the entire month was super helpful, and guided me through times I didn't know what to do! As a first time mom, it really helped me understand babies sleep patterns. Now he is consistently taking naps in his crib, has fallen asleep on his own, and we have a much better sleep routine!"

"When I reached out for help, Owen was not sleeping through the night. He was waking at least once, needing to be rocked to sleep and back to sleep when he'd wake. He also relied on milk to fall asleep. There were times that I would purposely be in the car during naptime so he would fall asleep in the car. I was skeptical and nervous because I wasn't sure how he would do with the transition and trying something new. After the first night he pretty much took to it and has been sleeping through the night ever since! Even going on vacation, he was able to nap, and sleep on his own, and slept through the night! Naps and bedtime are no longer something I dread thanks to you!!"
