Family Sleep Support
Helping Your Family Rest with Expert Sleep Support and Gentle Guidance
Sleep for the whole family is critical for emotional, physical and psychological well-being…
Our Infant Sleep Specialist encourages healthy sleep habits while following your own parenting instincts.
Our philosophy is based on the attachment theory which will enhance your understanding of how your baby communicates, while allowing you to explore how best to respond to your baby while still meeting your own needs.
In our family support packages "sleep training" or 'cry it out" methods are not included. We want naps, bedtime, and sleep to be a safe, healthy and peaceful place to go for all!
We will answer your sleep-related questions, provide information on age appropriate sleep patterns for your baby and create a customized plan to optimize sleep and achieve overall balance in your families life.

“The more the child feels attached to the mother, the more secure he is in his acceptance of himself and the rest of the world. The more love he gets, the more he is capable of giving. Attachment is as central to the developing child as eating and breathing.
