About me

Hi everyone! My name is Desiree, and I’ve been a pediatric sleep consultant for 9 years, helping families improve their baby or child’s sleep through education, individualized sleep plans, and one-on-one coaching. I take a comprehensive approach to sleep. Before recommending sleep training, I first assess the child’s sleep needs, schedule, routines, sleep environment, and current sleep habits. From there, I make targeted changes to build a strong sleep foundation and, when appropriate, guide parents through a strategic and supportive sleep training approach that fits their child and family. I also look beyond behavioral sleep challenges and consider other factors that may be contributing to disrupted sleep, including nutrition, environmental factors, and potential red flags for airway concerns or sleep-disordered breathing. My goal is to understand what may be driving the sleep challenges first, rather than simply treating every sleep problem with sleep training.

Working with Desiree has truly changed our lives. As first-time parents to twin babies, life had become increasingly chaotic. Our girls were often cranky, and after every feeding it would take us 20–30 minutes to get each baby to sleep. We didn't understand their sleep cues or the right timing, and we were quickly burning out. Desiree's education and guidance completely changed the way we approached sleep. She helped us understand our babies' cues, establish a routine, and build healthy sleep habits. Our babies are so much happier now, and for the first time we have predictability in our daily lives, which has made an incredible difference for our entire family. What stood out most was the level of support she provided. She was always quick to answer our questions, and even when life got busy and we forgot to check in, she would proactively reach out to see how things were going. We always felt supported throughout the entire process. Desiree is knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, and genuinely invested in the families she works with. Sleep training twins felt overwhelming at first, but her guidance made the process manageable and gave us the confidence we needed.

We’re very grateful to Desiree for helping us on our baby sleep journey! When we found Desiree we were desperate, our 5 month old was waking up 6-8 times a night on a bad night, was increasingly impossible to put down for naps, and we were all so tired! In just a few weeks our son was going to sleep on his own for bedtime and naps, mostly sleeping through the night from 7:30 pm to 6:30 am. We had struggled with sleep since birth and are amazed at how much our family’s sleep has transformed in such a short amount of time.

Desiree was a savior for my wife and I to get our son to sleep. We went from multiple wake ups in a night to just one and being able to put him down in the crib and walking out of the room while he soothes himself to sleep. Well worth the money to have the help with sleep!

We honestly cannot say enough good things about working with Desiree. Before we started, we were exhausted, overwhelmed, and honestly not sure how we were going to fix our son’s sleep. It felt like we had tried everything, and nothing was working consistently. From our very first conversation, Desiree made us feel calm, supported, and hopeful. She gave us a clear plan, but more importantly, she walked alongside us through it. She never made us feel judged, and she always met us where we were at, especially on the really hard nights. Sleep training is emotional, and there were moments where we doubted ourselves or felt like it was too hard. Desiree was always there to remind us of the bigger picture, help us understand what was happening, and reassure us that we were doing the right thing for our baby. That support meant everything. And the results… truly life changing. Our son is sleeping so much better, and we feel like we have our evenings, our rest, and honestly a sense of normalcy back. It has made such a huge difference for our whole family. If you are on the fence, I would say this: Desiree is not just a sleep coach, she is someone who genuinely cares and knows exactly how to guide you through one of the hardest phases of parenting. We are so, so grateful we found her.

I don't know where to begin! Working with Desiree has been such a blessing. I reached out to Desiree right before my toddler turned 2 and had never slept through the night. She would wake up at least four times a night and required a lot of attention in order to go back to sleep. Not only is she now self-regulating herself back to sleep at night, but she goes long stretches and doesn't need us to go into her room anymore. Such a win!! On top of the night training, we worked with Desiree to redo our entire schedule. My kids had spent years waking up at 4am and going to bed at 4pm (I know, it was bad). With her help, we're now going to bed and waking up at a normal time for my kids' ages. I highly recommend working with Desiree - she's affordable, easily accessible and effective.

Working with Desiree has been wonderful. She helped sleep train our toddler on one day—I’m not exaggerating, her advice and planning trained him in one day. She’s worth the price, which is reasonable. Highly recommended!

Desiree is not just an amazing sleep coach she is a professional beyond belief. I think that's because she really cares about your success and loves what she does. We could not be more thankful for Desiree's help. She got our 2.5 year old sleeping through the night in just ONE DAY! Now he sleeps through the night without any wakings. A life changing service worth every penny!

She was really helpful and was able to answer all my questions. She made me feel at ease with a process that I wasn't sure how it was going to. If I were to have another child I would sure be seeking help from her again.

We had a wonderful experience with Desiree. She is very adaptive and truly listens to our suggestions, making the entire process feel collaborative and comfortable. She is always patient in answering all our questions and provides clear, helpful guidance. We especially appreciated her quick responses over email, which made things so much easier for us. Most importantly, she is very understanding with babies. Highly recommend her support!

Desiree was an absolute game changer for our family. She helped us finally get sleep and understand sleep training in a way that felt supportive and manageable. Her expertise, patience, and encouragement made all the difference. We went from unpredictable, interrupted sleep to almost 11 hours of sleep and a predictable nap too. We’re so grateful and highly recommend her. She’s the real deal and so worth the investment.

Nothing short of 5 stars. Our baby would sleep only on our arms and would wake up a few times at night and as parents we were perpetually tired. We worked with Desiree for 4 weeks, and it just changed our lives. Desiree has a methodic approach towards reaching successful sleep goals. By the end of the 4 weeks we have a baby that is enjoying going to sleep in the crib. We are able to care better for our baby because we have more energy.

Desiree has been such an incredible help to our family. We came to her with an 8 month old that had essentially never slept well from birth and was awake for 3-4 hours at a time during the night and left with a baby sleeping through the night. We were delirious and exhausted and really just needed someone to carry us in the right direction. We learned so much from her on how to get our baby on a healthy schedule and she worked with us every step of the way to get there together. I can’t say enough good things. The gift of sleep is the most precious gift of all.

Desiree is amazing!!! We wished we worked with her sooner! We came to her a few months ago when our son was 19 months old and was having trouble sleeping through the night - and at that time, having split nights where he would wake up in the middle of the night and stay awake for 1-2 hours. She set up a very straightforward plan that we could easily follow and was super responsive to all emails whenever we had questions, concerns, or just needed to vent! She also sent regular emails to check in and/or give feedback. Some background - we did not have any consistent schedule for our son and he was mainly nursing to sleep for naps and bedtime. Desiree was able to help us with all our sleep troubles and he is now able to sleep independently for both naps and bedtime and is consistently sleeping through the night! She was so supportive and we really enjoyed working with her. Thanks again for everything Desiree!!

We are so grateful for Desiree's help and support throughout sleep training our baby. Prior to engaging Desiree, our baby was tired throughout the day, and we were at our wits' end with frequent night wakings. Desiree understood our needs and provided a detailed, personalized plan that established the right sleep patterns and schedule for our child. Once we got the night sleep under control, Desiree helped us with nap training, providing a plan that aligned with our child's needs. As we worked with her, Desiree was responsive and prompt via email, helping us manage the unexpected. Thanks to Desiree, our baby is now happy and active throughout the day, and we feel less overwhelmed. We highly recommend working with her!

Desiree was so wonderful to work with! She helped us so much in finding and establishing a sleep schedule that worked for our baby. Desiree is super knowledgeable and supportive on gentle sleep methods, and guided and supported us wonderfully throughout the process.

Working with Desiree has been absolutely life-changing for our family! Before starting, our daughter was struggling with short naps and frequent night wakings, and we were completely exhausted. From the very first consultation, Desiree was warm, supportive, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to really understand our daughter’s sleep habits and created a personalized plan that felt realistic and gentle. Within just a few days, we started to see real progress, and now our baby is sleeping through the night and napping consistently! Desiree checked in regularly, answered all of our questions, and encouraged us every step of the way. Her guidance gave us not only better sleep but also confidence and peace of mind. We can’t recommend Desiree enough—if you’re on the fence about hiring a sleep consultant, do it! It’s the best decision we’ve made for our family’s well-being.

Desiree was absolutely wonderful to work with, and I’m beyond grateful for the change in our son’s sleep that we so desperately needed. After 10 long months of short, inconsistent naps, false starts, multiple night waking's, and early mornings, I was completely exhausted — and our little guy was clearly struggling, too. Thanks to Desiree, we now have a consistent schedule, consolidated naps, and he is sleeping through the night! She was patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive, always taking the time to answer my questions and calm my anxieties. Her step by step approach made the process feel much more manageable with small tweaks along the way as she got to know our son and his habits. She also helped keep me accountable, which was exactly what I needed to create lasting change. I truly can’t recommend her enough!

We worked with Desiree for sleep consulting, and it’s truly been a game changer for our family! Before working with her, our little one’s nights were unpredictable, and naps were short or inconsistent. Our baby use to wake up every 30 mins to 1 hour at night, use to feed 4 times at night and some days wasn’t napping at all. Desiree took the time to understand our baby’s personality, schedule, and our parenting style, then built a plan that actually felt doable. Her guidance was clear, supportive, and so reassuring throughout the process. She never made us feel pressured, and always reminded us to focus on progress, not perfection. Within a short time, our baby started sleeping longer stretches at night, taking only 1 feed at night and taking more consistent naps during the day. Desiree’s support gave us the confidence (and much-needed rest!) we’d been missing for months. Desiree is compassionate, proactive, knowledgeable and very thorough with her work. We’re so grateful for her expertise and would recommend her to any parent struggling with infant sleep. She is truly magical!

Our 2yo dropped his naps out of the blue for about 3 months. We finally sought out help and Desiree happened to pop up on Instagram for me. I reached out to her and LITERALLY the second day we implemented our new schedule, Theo started napping again and has napped ever since. It does require some willpower and likely much more structure than a family is used to. But it's by far worth getting the nap back. Theo is happier and less chaotic/sleep deprived, and I am a happier mama with the "nap break". 100/10 stars! Thank you, Desiree!

Desiree changed the game for our whole family. My husband and I weren’t aligning on a daily structure for baby, causing a sleep regression for our 13-month-old with 4x/night wakes. Baby had always been a great sleeper until these last 4 months. Desiree created a detailed step-by-step plan for baby’s day that enabled him to instantly sleep better overnight. Within a month, he was back to sleeping through the night and also not needing to feed or be rocked to sleep for the first time. Desiree was incredibly empathetic and gave guidance to help us work better together as a couple, parents, and a more nurturing home environment. I’ve used other baby specialists in the past, but I’ve never encountered someone who could offer a 360-degree approach to parenting. We are forever grateful to Desiree for giving us the structure and cheerleading we needed to get us beyond the goal post and back to full 8+ hr nights of sleep! Thank you Desiree!

We worked with Desiree for our then 7.5 month LO who had never been a good sleeper. She was so amazing to work with. She provided us with a detailed schedule that worked so well with our LO. His sleep and naps improved from day 1 of following her schedule. She was also very supportive of our preference for going with a gentle sleep training method of pick up put down even though PUPD is little harder for babies at that age. Our baby finally became an independent sleeper. We absolutely recommend her to anyone who is going through sleep struggles with their LOs. After all, it’s not just your sleep but it’s the baby’s sleep that is important too!

We worked with Desiree when our daughter was 8 months old and going through a tough sleep phase. Within just 10–12 days of following her guidance, our daughter was sleeping through the night and her feeding patterns significantly improved. Nap transitions were a bit tricky as she was moving from 3 to 2 naps, but Desiree helped us through it—and the biggest win was that our baby started sleeping independently. That alone felt like a huge milestone. Desiree is very straightforward, which we really appreciated. She doesn’t sugarcoat—she gives you clear, honest advice and practical steps that actually work. If you’re looking for someone who gets to the point and provides fact-based support, I highly recommend working with Desiree.

Desiree was so wonderful to work with and we are extremely grateful that she was able to figure out our little one’s sleep! My 12 month old was refusing her second nap and waking early in the morning- Desiree was thoughtful in her approach and made very subtle schedule shifts to help us figure out what worked for her. We’re back to taking two naps and mornings are much better. Her communication style is amazing and we truly appreciated the fast and reliable responses she always gave!! Can’t recommend her enough!

Working with Desiree was amazing. This is the second time i work with her for sleep training both my daughter and son. She helped me implement a successful sleep schedule for my 8 month old and he learned to sleep independently in a very short time. He used to wakeup multiple times during naps and night sleep and needed me to hold or rock him to sleep. Now, naps are consistent and he sleeps so well through the night, I am so proud of him! I loved how Desiree's approach was gentle, organized & straight to the point, tackling one issue at a time, which helped ease things for the baby & me. She was always very responsive and took time to listen and offer detailed solutions for us. I followed her plan & after just 1 week, i noticed a big difference … Sleep training is NOT easy but with the desiree’s support i am confident that its the best thing to do for my baby and whole family. She made me believe in the importance of consistent sleep & how it impacts a baby's growth and mood throughout out the day. SO worth it ! I HIGHLY recommend her services.

We had a great experience working with Desiree! She is like a magician - she can adjust sleep schedules in the perfect way that makes sleep improve without any drama! She helped us get our 16 month old's sleep on track and was very flexible when we had unexpected illnesses/travel. I especially appreciated that she made sure that we were happy with the progress that we had made at the end of our time working together.

Desiree has been an absolute lifesaver for our family! Back in January, our little one was giving us a run for our money when it came to sleep. He was fighting it every step of the way, there was no semblance of a schedule, and we were spending hours just trying to get him down, only for him to wake up shortly after. We were beyond exhausted. From our first consultation, Desiree's knowledge and expertise were so apparent, and she immediately put us at ease. She patiently explained everything, making sure we understood the reasoning behind each strategy. She guided us through transitioning him out of his lounger and swaddle and into his crib, a process that felt daunting at first, but with her support, became manageable. Over the course of a few months, she helped us establish a regular sleep schedule for our little guy, which felt like a miracle at the time! It wasn't always smooth sailing – he definitely proved to be a challenging sleeper, and things like vacations and illnesses would inevitably disrupt our progress – but Desiree never wavered. She was always there with answers to our endless questions, offering encouragement and tweaking our plan whenever needed. She truly went above and beyond. Even now, as a 10-month-old, he still has his moments of sleep resistance. But Desiree continues to be an invaluable resource for us, guiding us through every new challenge, from transitioning to two naps, to figuring out his ideal wake windows and maximum sleep times, and adjusting his schedule as needed. We are so incredibly grateful for her patience, understanding, and unwavering dedication to helping our family get the sleep we so desperately needed. Thanks to her expertise and ongoing support, our son is finally on a much better sleep routine, and we can't thank her enough for the positive impact she's had on our lives. We wholeheartedly recommend Desiree to any parent struggling with their child's sleep – she's truly a game-changer!

I want to thank Desiree for being prompt, super supportive and empathetic. Our 6 month old went from co-sleeping to sleeping independently in the crib. It took us a month, and we are still working on naps. Sleep training is one of the hardest you’ll be doing but trust Desiree, she knows what she’s doing, follow her guide and have patience.

Desiree's sleep coaching was outstanding! As twin parents, my partner and I were in desperate need of a good night's rest 9 months in. Within a week of implementing Desiree's practices, we (whole family) were consistently sleeping through the night and our kids were finally on the same nap schedule. Desiree was super flexible with us in the beginning when we needed to pause the sleep training temporarily due to us all getting ill. We highly recommend her as she is professional, understanding, and very committed to helping your family attain consistency when it comes to sleep. She demonstrated a lot of knowledge with regards to baby sleep, and her insight is invaluable if you and your family are struggling with sleep and the nap schedule.

It’s been a pleasure working with Desiree in sleep training my 17month old who’s used to contact napping and cosleeping. My little one is extremely sensitive to sleep and Desiree managed our expectations well on the duration it would take to achieve success. She was persistent and thorough during her check-ins and extremely patient in answering all our questions. Desiree continued to support us beyond her usual commitment based on how our journey progressed. She remained persistent in encouraging and guiding us through her sleep training techniques. She kept our motivation during the hard days of sleep training reminding us of the progress achieved and how things were getting better. If a month ago someone said we could all sleep well through the night, that would have been a far dream and thanks to Desiree for making it happen!

Desiree was so wonderful to work with. We were in the depths of sleep deprivation with our 18 month old and decided to finally turn to support from a sleep trainer. Within a month, there was significant progress, and Desiree has this magical way of empathizing with you and making you believe you can do it. Our daughter is now an independent sleeper and sleeping through the night. We are forever grateful I am excited to use what she shared with us as we welcome our second baby, and will not be afraid to reach out to her sooner this time around when we need help. Thank you Desiree!!!

I can’t recommend Desiree enough! She has been a game-changer for my 11-month-old daughter’s sleep. Before working with her, my daughter was waking up every 2-3 hours and needed assistance to get back to sleep. After following her advice on updating our schedule and removing some sleep associations, my daughter is now sleeping independently and through the night – and we’re even room sharing! We are all so much more rested and happier. I’m incredibly grateful for the guidance and support we received. Highly recommend!

Desiree was amazing! I reached out to Desiree when my son was 11 months old. He was and still is very active. We struggled to get him to sleep on his own and to stay sleep throughout the night. He would wake up 7-9 times and would need to be rocked and fed to sleep. He now falls asleep in the crib and only wakes once or twice (we chose the gentle sleep method so we still have a couple of weeks until we are done). I am getting more rest than I’ve gotten in the past year and feel like a new person! Thank you Desiree for giving us the confidence and support we needed!

Desiree has been a life savior. Our 5yo started having sleep issues after a trip & couldn’t sleep on her own & kept waking up many times at night. We tried many different methods & none working over 2 months. Desiree gave us different options in our sleep plan. We started seeing full nights of sleep within a few days. Highly recommend Desiree and her services. Our whole family regained sleep & sanity!

We worked with Desiree to help us get through a major sleep regression for our almost 2-year old. In addition to night wakings, our daughter also stopped being able to fall asleep on her own and we would have to spend an hour or more sitting on the floor waiting for her to fall asleep before we would have to tiptoe out of the room. Desiree worked with us on getting her to fall asleep on her own, gave us direction on what to do in different situations, gave us a proper wake/sleep schedule, and was extremely responsive. I would highly recommend Desiree!

Desiree is an amazing sleep consultant. We approached her to sleep train our 5 month old who was waking up every 2 hrs for snacking, or comfort (middle of the night rocking) from us. Sleep deprivedness took a huge toll on my memory and productivity at work.As soon as we approached Desiree, she asked few questions and asked us to track his sleep patterns for sometime. She instantly identified a few patterns and suggested changes we had to work on, which was affecting our kids sleep. She provided us a very detailed plan, and was very responsive. She provided us answers to our innumerable questions very diligently and in a detailed manner. As suggested by Desiree, our son started showing drastic improvements in sleep by 5th night after being sleep trained, and now he wakes up only for one full feed at night, and settles himself back to sleep. We recommend Desiree to any one looking for a sleep coach!

We are so grateful for Desiree! Our 7 month old was waking up multiple times a night (for hours at a time!), and his daytime sleep was totally unpredictable. Desiree was able to pinpoint several areas of improvement, and gave us step-by-step support. I feel like she really taught US how to teach our son how to sleep. After just three weeks of working with Desiree, he now sleeps 9-10 hours overnight and naps like a pro! We were shocked at how much improvement he made, and so quickly. All three of us are finally getting good quality sleep, and we're all happier (and saner) because of it. Hire Desiree, she is one million percent worth it!!

Desiree is a wizard! We couldn’t have sleep trained our now 6-month-old daughter without her. We were too tired, too overwhelmed by all the different research, options, and perspectives and really needed someone to tell us exactly what to do (gently). Desiree takes into account your preferences, parenting style and needs when supporting you to support your baby. I had a baby who was up every 45 minutes all night long, needed an hour or more of rocking and nursing and bouncing to fall asleep, and who only napped in arms. Now she falls asleep independently for naps and nighttime and wakes just once or twice to nurse at night. I thought it would be so much harder than it was. I thought I had THAT baby who could never be trained. Wrong! We are all so much happier and well rested thanks to Desiree!

We cannot express enough how grateful we are for Desiree Baird's incredible support and guidance. Our little one struggled with sleep consistently every night, leaving my partner and I with very little sleep for months. We tried everything, which usually resulted in two hours of fighting and everyone ending up exhausted and stressed. After working with Desiree, our little one now sleeps the entire night BY HIMSELF for over 10 hours. We were able to dial in a schedule, and it has literally changed our lives. Initially, we had concerns and doubts about getting sleep under control, but Desiree was with us every step of the way. She proactively reached out whenever we had a rough night and held our hand throughout the entire process. The journey was not easy and required a lot of effort, but without Desiree, there is no chance we would have managed it ourselves. She was amazing and supportive, guiding us through every step. The value we received from her services FAR exceeded the price we paid. Desiree truly cares deeply about her clients, and her dedication is evident. We are incredibly happy and thankful to have found her. If you're struggling with sleep issues for your little one, we highly recommend Desiree Baird. She is truly amazing!

Desiree worked with us for a month to help get our 8 month twin boys sleep trained. They weren’t on a schedule before and would rarely sleep longer than 30 minutes for naps, unless it was a contact nap. I was up every 2-3 hours during the night tending to them. Within that month she helped us get on a nap schedule that works for the boys, now the boys can fall asleep independently and for their full hour+ nap duration, they are only waking up 1 or 2 times at night to feed rather than every 2 hours, and they learned to self soothe themselves when they wake up at night. She was extremely communicative and adjusted the schedules as needed until we found one that fit. Well worth it!

Desiree is a life saver! We were struggling with sleep with our twin girls and just didn't know where to start. She helped us come up with a plan and schedule to follow and was there to support us each step of the way. We ALL had anxiety when it came to sleep and putting the girls down for naps and bedtime and she helped us overcome that and more! Now that we have a consistent routine and schedule to follow we are all so much happier. We can't recommend Desiree enough. Thank you so much, Desiree!

We reached out to Desiree to help our baby sleep better. She really knows what she is doing. She was there through every step and helped us understanding baby needs better. She communicated early and frequently, clearing out questions regularly and helping us make right decisions. She was amazing to work with and we recommend her for pediatric sleep training.

Working with Desiree has truly been life changing for our family. In the past month we've accomplished night weening, and more solid nights of sleep than my toddler has ever had. Having the expert guidance, as well as hearing that a lot of people struggle with these things, was so helpful, and gave me the confidence to make bigger changes that ultimately proved to be exactly what me daughter needed.

We just finished working with Desiree, and cannot recommend her enough. Our 1-year-old daughter (who we had sleep trained at 5 months!) went from being a very reliable sleeper to consistently waking up at 4:30 AM (!!), mixed with intermittent night wakings. We were not functioning well as parents, spouses, and as a family overall. I was going to work feeling like a zombie, and my mental health was suffering. After 2 months of this, I finally reached out to Desiree, and in hindsight, I can't believe I waited so long. Right off the bat, we trusted her judgement and knew we were in good hands. She advised us to make some small tweaks to our daughter's schedule, and these small tweaks ended up having a tremendously positive impact. Within a few days, our girl started consistently waking up 6:30am-onwards, and we could NOT be more relieved. Desiree checked in consistently, offering up advice and making sure we were doing ok. By the end of our time working together, we were more rested than we had been in months and loving our mornings again. She also was extremely generous in giving some advice for our 4-year-old son, and again, overnight, we've seen a massive difference in how smooth his bedtimes are. Desiree is kind, reliable, and extremely knowledgeable. I won't hesitate to recommend her to any friends/family (strangers!..) needing sleep assistance - even though we had previously invested in a different sleep course for our young babies, it was worth it to re-invest and get help through some big transitions for our kiddos. Thank you so much, Desiree!

This was the second time I worked with Desiree: 1st time was with my 1st born and I ran back to Desiree with a list of issues with my 3rd baby. Desiree is such a pleasant and wonderful person! She is really easy to work with, is filled with knowledge and experience in her field, and more importantly keeps you on track and accountable! I appreciate the follows ups and reminders, especially when I felt like life was pulling me in many directions. At the end of our session, I accomplished so much, more importantly I through out the paci, my baby goes down for 1 nap and goes to sleep at the right time so that she does not wake up at nights. Recommend Desiree 💯

I have been trying to get my 18 month old daughter to sleep in her crib for a while but didn’t work. So I reached out to Desiree and that was the best decision I ever made. Desiree is very professional and full of resources. She listens to all our needs and cater accordingly. She guided us step by step throughout the process. Without Desiree we wouldn’t have gone this far ever. She gave me lots of advice on eating since my toddler is a very picky eater. I’m so grateful for all the advice and support from Desiree. If you have kids with sleep problems, Desiree is the best person to help…

Desiree knows what she is doing! Our 5 month old was waking multiple times a night, wouldn’t sleep in her bassinet or crib, needed her pacifier replaced again and again and again and again every nap and through the night. One sleepless night at 3am I stumbled upon her website and reached out and am so glad I did. After a month partnership our daughter now sleeps consistently 8 - 11 hour stretches depending on the night, sleeps well during naps, can independently fall asleep and put herself back to sleep if she wakes. Desiree has been a godsend and not only has helped my husband and I feel human again but my already happy baby is now the best version of herself with the quality sleep she is getting. Desiree is a straight to the point, no BS type a gal, and I’m so glad she is because I’m not sure we would have been successful with another personality type. Hire her yesterday!

A miracle worker! My (then) 9 month old was refusing to sleep on her own, waking up 2 to 8 times a night. My husband and I were so exhausted especially both of us working full time. Desiree's approach is UNIQUE for each baby. She took the time to understand my daughter's personality as well as what I'm comfortable doing and came up with a plan that takes into consideration both. Within less than a few weeks, my daughter was sleeping through the night (within just a few days) and nap trained as well. Even though online/virtual, I felt I wasn't alone in this. Desiree would constantly be checking the shared app for progress and exchange emails as much as I needed. Highly recommend!

Desiree helped us get our little one sleeping through the night in his own room and taking naps in his crib. It took so much pressure off of us to be able to send her an email with questions about why he fought his last nap or why he woke early. She is quick to respond and very easy to work with.

I reached out to Desiree for help when my almost-2-year old still woke up multiple times at night and I was desperate to get my sleep back. After a 3 weeks partnership with Desiree, we achieved all of our goals successfully- not only does my little one get much better and longer sleep now, we also managed to move him to sleep in his own bed in a separate room (!), even though we have been co-sleeping ever since he was born. Desiree is very thoughtful in crafting the sleep training plan for us, knows what she is doing, and is amazingly supportive through the whole process. We are so happy with the sleep training results and appreciative of her help in this journey. Highly recommend Desiree to any new parent who is struggling with the little one's sleep!

Working with Desiree was great!! After a few months of sleep struggles with our 14 month old twins, we stumbled across Desiree's website in the middle of the night while searching for experts in twin baby/toddler sleep. Our only regret is that we waited so long to get help! Starting from our first call, it felt that Desiree really took the time, and interest, in getting to know us and our specific situation/challenges. We really appreciated the thoughtfulness that went into her plan and we were especially grateful that she understood the unique challenges that twins present from the start. In just a couple of weeks, the twins were falling asleep independently (and quickly!), sleeping through the night (as previously we were up for hours at a time), and transitioned from two short/resisted naps to one nice long nap! We certainly would not have achieved our goals without Desiree's guidance and we felt confident and well supported throughout the process. My husband and I are very grateful for sleep!

Desiree changed our family’s life! We had not slept through the night for over a year and a half (yes, you read that right) and with her coaching, we were able to make a transformational change! Not only did she solve our needs of ensuring our toddler gets healthy amounts of sleep, but she prepared us for what’s to come in future sleep regressions. I am much more empowered with all of the techniques we’ve applied and am so thankful for being able to count on getting a restful nights sleep for myself! Thank you Desiree!

When I first met with Desiree, my 5 month old was waking up 4 times a night and we were both sleep deprived and miserable. After coming up with a detailed plan and schedule, he was sleeping through the night (minus one time to nurse) by day 4. She is a miracle worker! She also gave me a plan moving forward to help keep his sleep on track as he gets older and has regressions. I can’t recommend her enough!

With Desiree our lives had a before and after (truly!). When we reached out to her we were at a loss with our 6 month old baby’s sleep. Naps didn’t last more than 15-20 min, so we had to extend all naps in arms, bedtime was such a battle of false starts, after putting our baby down she would wake up an average of 8 times every 15-20 minutes. Nights were messy too, I had to keep replacing the pacifier around 10 times per night because every time she dropped the pacifier, she would immediately wake up. I tried everything to improve the situation but nothing worked, in fact, it all just kept getting worse. The minute we spoke with Desiree, we knew she was the one. She came out with a sleep plan that was perfect for our little one (and for us!). One of the things I valued the most about Desiree was her patience. I’m the type of mom that always has so many questions and ALL the time she was there, to patiently answer and explain everything. The sleep plan she created was so smart and gentle which was also important to us. The process was not easy, but with consistency and patience (and a lot of encouragement from Desiree!) we were able to achieve amazing results. Today our baby is able to fall asleep at night after being put down with very minimal to non-crying (no pacifier at all, yay!!), she will sleep through the night with only 1 feeding and naps are consistent and independent. All of this thanks to the guidance of Desiree. We couldn’t be more thankful for her help and we would blindly recommend her. She is not only incredibly knowledgeable about baby sleep, but is also so kind, compassionate and patient. Honestly, she’s the full package. As I told her in our closing call, “you might be the reason why I would now potentially consider having another baby!!” Baby sleep is TOUGH, it’s incredibly exhausting, so having someone by your side like Desiree, who will not only guide you, but also truly hold your hand through the sleep training process, is just priceless. Again and again, thank you so much Desiree!

Desiree was truly wonderful to work with! Our son was a pretty decent sleeper until about 5.5 months. He suddenly was waking every few hours and no one in the house was sleeping well. We realized we didn't have a good enough plan on our own and needed to help him sleep better and move out of his Snoo. With Desirees's guidance he went to quickly sleeping through the night on his own and improving on naps. And it's so nice knowing we can reach out to here after the training when we need help! We gwve recommended her services to several friends already and will continue to sing her praises.

Working with Desiree was the best decision I ever made! As a first time mom I felt overwhelmed with understanding newborn sleep and I knew it was a priority for me and my family. After an initial session and lesson plan I felt like I had a great game plan to get my daughter sleeping well. Over our 60 days together Desiree helped me learn about how to read sleep cues and adjust naps to maximize nighttime sleep. I can confidently say my daughter sleeps like a champion because of her guidance. She’s responsive and patient and so knowledgeable about baby sleeping and truly was a pleasure to work with. I’m so glad I decided to work with her and feel prepared to tackle sleep changes now as my daughter grows. Thank you Desiree!

This is our second time working Desiree. 3years ago she helped us sleep train our twin boys. This year she helped us sleep train our 6month old Luke. Luke has multiple sleep crutches and scheduling issues that were throwing off his day and nighttime sleep. Desiree helped us eliminate each sleep crutch one by one and then created a sleep schedule that worked well for the whole family! Desiree is a pleasure to work with and is very knowledgeable. I highly recommend working with her!

As third time parents, we thought we knew what we were doing when it came to baby sleep schedules. Boy were we wrong. When our third baby was around 8/9 months, we hit daylight savings time and then found ourselves in a cycle where she was waking up between 4-5 every morning. We were exhausted. We tried everything in our (we thought) fairly extensive parenting arsenal, but nothing worked. Finally, we reached out to Desiree and within 2 weeks, our daughter was waking up between 6:30-7am. This was a dramatic improvement for everyone. The baby was getting more sleep and we were getting more sleep. She asked thorough, thoughtful questions and gave us an actionable plan we could enact at home. She was very responsive via email and helped get us back to a much more manageable schedule. Thank you Desiree! We will be absolutely be recommending you to family and friends!

My husband and I had tried sleep training a few times during my baby’s first year, and it pretty much failed every time. Baby ended up co-sleeping with us from 6-12 months so we finally made the decision to hire a sleep consultant in December. Let’s just say that we fulfilled our new year’s resolution and baby is no longer in our bed! Also, it was relatively straightforward once we stuck to a plan. We had pre-work we had to do, which actually helped us with the sleep training since baby started to sleep on his own within one weekend. We got night time down, but are still working on naps and we are ok with that since we all can sleep at night now. Highly recommend working with Desiree.

Our experience with Desiree was truly life changing. Our 5.5mo old went from 100% contact naps, waking up 5-6 times a night TO taking naps unassisted, falling asleep independently, sleeping through the night. After 4mo sleep regression hit us hard, we had no idea how we could show up to work after a series of sleepless nights. At the end of our time with Desiree, our baby girl went from cosleeping since day 1 after my emergency C section , to sleeping independently in her own room (which we never imagined was possible, especially for naps!). Desiree helped us through multiple phases - baby gas problem, swaddle transition, baby rolling regression, nap count transition, baby solids introduction, parents transitioning to work, caretaker transition, baby sickness and travel tips. Desiree went above and beyond with the daily support she offered us. It was reassuring and relieving to know that she was there to hand hold us through this journey. There is no odd-baby-sleep-problem that she doesn’t have a solution for! We are SO happy to know that she’ll always be there to help us with any sleep question we may have in the future too. If you’re considering a sleep consultant, DO IT! Desiree is THE expert!! We sleep better and actually have valuable free time once our baby girl is dreaming away!

How do you find the right sleep coach? Ask your doctor, ask friends, look on forums, or do some internet searches and see what happens. First, the website for Desiree was the most comprehensive with data and clarity on how much the service would cost and what exactly would be provided. Second, she provided a 30 min consultation - Yay! I could meet the person before I invested my time and money. The consult sealed the deal. Desiree checked in and provided input before the morning was over - she knew how the night went before I did. We made minor corrections and refined the sleep plan daily. The whole process from start to finish was fantastic. We identified the issues, what was working and put a plan into place. I went from dreading nights to being rested, assured, and confident. I now have a 3 year old that sleeps through the night and me too! If you're not sure if Desiree is the right sleep coach for you, give her a call and take 30 min to find out.

Desiree has been so amazing! We tried the Ferber method prior to contacting Desiree and it was not successful and we were pretty worn out from the early morning wakings. After speaking with Desiree I was confident going back into sleep training. Literally 4 days in and he just went to sleep on his own. I was amazed! Desiree was so organized and strategic. Her approach was a lot more softer than other methods I have seen out there which was easier on us and on our baby too. I can't believe how quickly he transitioned to sleeping on his own. I would highly recommend Desiree.

Desiree is amazing! After a year of encouraging bad sleep habits that simply worked for us because I wasn’t working full time, she helped us break all those habits and helped us introduce better sleep hygiene and a sleep routine for our one year old. She supported us multiple times a day with emails and included some of our parenting styles and preferences in his personalized sleep plan. Honestly both my husband and I were a little skeptical when she said she was confident our son will be able to fall asleep independently and sleep through the night. At the end of three weeks she proved us wrong! I now have more “me” time during the day and time with my husband at night. Seriously, the best money I have ever spent!

Seeking for help from Desiree is one of the best decisions that I made. She helped my son get independent sleep into place, which tremendously improved our life quality! My son was used to being held and rocked to sleep. He refused to sleep in his crib. We had to co-sleep with him for all sleeps. He had short naps and woke up multiple times during the night. My husband and I were exhausted from poor sleep and full-time jobs. I found Desiree on Google, and I am grateful that I chose to work with her on sleep coaching. Her sleep plan is so detailed, step-by-step, mild, customized, and scientific. Everything makes sense. We did pre-work for one week before we officially started sleep training, and we almost saw progress immediately. My son fell asleep on his own without the need to check in on the first night of sleep training, and on the third night he did not cry at all. Within two weeks, he can sleep independently for naps and during the night and can sleep through the night. His longest stretch of sleep is 9.5-10hrs. The journey was gentle and pleasant. I was stressed on the first night of sleep training, but that's it. Thanks to sleep education, my son has been getting more quality sleep time. He gained weight lol. He is less fussy and is always in good mood because he sleeps better. Again, life quality improved so much with Desiree's assistance.

Desiree's assistance with our 17 month old daughter's sleep challenges was nothing short of life changing. I had not had more than three hours sleep at a time since my daughter had been born, despite various attempts at trying to sleep train her on our own. We were cosleeping most of the night, even though I had sworn that would not happen. Both of us were sleeping horribly. After having sleep challenges for years with our older child, we decided that we desperately needed help so we wouldn't continue down that road. I contacted Desiree, and she immediately responded. We were able to get to work with her right away. Desiree was amazing to work with, and she was everything that we needed: she provided us with the education to understand our daughter's sleep needs, gave us choices regarding how we could approach sleep training, and provided us with detailed plans that we amended together as needed as we went along. During that entire time, she provided excellent communication, reassurance, guidance, and support. Her help and her knowledge were everything we needed. I am blown away to say that my poorly sleeping baby is now a toddler who is an AMAZING sleeper. It only took a few quick nights to have a little one who sleeps all night for 11 hours straight, and sleeps for 2 hours during naps each day in her own crib(!) I honestly can say that they money we spent to have Desiree's assistance was some of the best money I have spent. I highly recommend working with Desiree Baird.

Working with Desiree has been absolutely wonderful! I was so lost trying to figure out how to get my 6 month olds sleep on track, and was trying to piece together all the different things I was reading but really had no idea where to start, and Desiree’s help has made all the difference. We had numerous aspects of sleep to work on and her plan for my daughter was step by step and so manageable. Having her there through each stage of the plan for support was amazing. She was always quick to respond to my questions and made what could have been a nightmare process, into such a positive easy going experience. We accomplished every goal we set and now everyone in my house is sleeping better!

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Desiree! We reached out when our twin daughters were about 5 months old. Desiree was supportive, kind and extremely helpful with how we could get the twins to not only sleep through the night, but to get them on similar schedules. After our time was up, we ended up reaching out again because one our girls was going through a transition and not sleeping through the night anymore. Once again, she was very helpful. We are SO grateful to her for her help and HIGHLY recommend hiring her, ESPECIALLY if you have twins.

When my almost two year old started waking up multiple times a night, we felt hopeless after him being such a good sleeper. After two months of sleeping poorly, we finally made the decision to hire Desiree, which I only wish we did early. She was there every day for me to answer any questions I had and adjust my son's sleep schedule as tried to get him back to normal. He responded quickly and I'm happy to say he's been sleeping 11+ hours each night in his own bed for weeks now!

I am so glad that I worked with Desiree! My son was 14 months old and I thought he was ready to transition to 1 nap, but everyday was a mess. She took lots of time to educate me on sleep, why he was getting stuck and then supported me when we had to change his schedule. I never believed in waking a sleeping baby (yikes!) but she taught me that this was necessary and it proved to be very true! After 6 days of working together, I had my son back at 2 naps (which is what he really needed) and my happy baby was back! I can't thank her enough!

Desiree was so awesome to work with! She has a wealth of pediatric sleep knowledge AND she keeps it real because she’s a Mama, too! She helped our 7 month old get into a solid napping schedule, transition from 3 to 2 naps and sleep 11-12 hours thru the night, eliminating all night feedings. He lays down after a quick 2 minute snuggle routine and goes to sleep on his own! We would recommend Desiree to anyone who needs help with their baby’s sleep and if you are overwhelmed googling the hundreds of different articles and tips and attempting to put them all together yourself! She was quick and thorough when responding to emails and will answer all of your questions; she even goes above and beyond to send you some encouragement when she knows you need it most!

We worked with Desiree to find a sleep solution for our 5.5 month old baby boy, who was waking 6-12 times per night, and having short or no naps during the day. His total sleep was 7-9.5 hours in a 24 hour period before we started working with Desiree, now his sleep is between 14-15 hours total in a 24 hour period. I will admit that my husband was very hesitant to hire any sleep coach, he thought the baby might just outgrow his bad sleep habits and learn to sleep on his own when he got older. I told my husband that hiring a sleep coach would be my birthday present, so he agreed and he is so glad that we went forward with sleep training. We saw results within the first 72 hours that we started working with Desiree, and our entire family has all been sleeping better since. Jack started sleeping through the night without any feedings after working with Desiree for only 5 days. Not only did we find a solution to our sleep problems of multiple night time wakeups and no naps; we also are now equipped with the tools to deal with bumps in the road, such as travel, teething, and developmental leaps. Working with Desiree was by far the best investment we’ve made for our baby and our family, this investment has and will continue to pay dividends. Not only were we able to resolve our baby's sleep issues, we have the knowledge and tools to continue our sleep training. We have regained our confidence as parents, enjoy our days with the baby, my anxiety and stress levels have dramatically decreased and we love having a predictable schedule and a happy baby as a result of getting enough quality sleep. My only regret is not calling Desiree sooner and getting his sleep schedule under control at 4 months old. I will most definitely refer all of my friends to Desiree for sleep help with their babies.

Desiree improved my life with her help of sleep training my 16month old! I am so happy that I hired her. She was very thorough and gave me step by step instructions on how to create a quiet and peaceful nursery where my daughter could create healthy sleeping habits. Then she came up with a personalized sleep plan with the goals that I wanted to achieve. She helped me through every step and supported me through the struggles. My daughter showed fast improvements every night and by night 4 or 5 she was sleeping and falling asleep independently through the night. She also helped me get my daughter on a nap schedule while educating me on how much sleep she needed at her age. I highly recommend hiring Desiree. I and my whole family are very happy and amazed by the results.

Desiree was so great to work with. She was responsive and continuously checked on us. She was easy to speak with and she never seemed rushed when speaking with us. Desiree genuinely cared about our success and she helped us transition our twins into toddler beds, helped us with dealing with potty issues right before bedtime, setting a consistent routine, and fixing our schedule. We were so anxious about bedtime and since working with her we feel so much more confident during our routine. She is a kind human who is well versed in baby and toddler sleep. She has twins as well which allowed for us to feel understood and supported. We highly highly recommend her. It is well worth it!

Desiree absolutely changed our lives! I thought my son was just one of the ones that didn't sleep but how wrong I was. Before working with Desiree I had read EVERYTHING and tried everything I was comfortable with to help my little one sleep. He was 15 months old when we started and waking to breastfeed an average 3 times per night, sometimes awake for 2 hours unable to get back to sleep. I knew he didn't "need" the food but hadn't been able to successfully break the cycle on my own. On night 1 of working together, I was able to stop breastfeeding through the night! He now happily falls asleep chatting to himself in his cot and can sleep 11-12 hours at night without any help from us to get him back to sleep. I would absolutely recommend Desiree to anyone who needs some guidance in helping their little ones learn to sleep.

From the beginning I wasn’t sure about hiring a sleep consultant. Once I read the reviews about Desiree and her being in WA I felt more connected to her. The first week my 5 month old was sleeping so well at night I couldn’t believe it. We went from sleep props to independent sleeping. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. I’ve already told her about friends who plan on having babies! 🙂 I would have to say my baby has 100% improved in her sleep. I also love the fact I can still message Desiree for questions with the 3 month post Facebook group. If you need help with your little one and want better sleep for your entire family reach out to her! Thank you again Desiree!

We were absolutely desperate and had pretty much decided that our youngest just wasn’t a sleeper. We tried just about every solution the internet and baby books had to offer and nothing seemed to work for our kiddo. Our good nights were when we were able to get a two hour stretch. We were exhausted when someone recommended Desiree. We debated for a few weeks before we decided to schedule a phone consult. We were a bit skeptical that this was going to change anything as we felt like we had tried it all. If I would have known how much Desiree was going to change our lives for the better, I would have called her much earlier. On the first night, our baby slept a 10.5 hour stretch! He has slept through the night ever since and with a little more time, he’s now napping consistently for long stretches. Even our “bad” nights now are drastically better than our good nights were before hiring Desiree. Desiree was supportive of our parenting style and made efforts to address all of our concerns. She was super knowledgeable and helped us to identify the problems and then troubleshoot the options to solve them. We wouldn’t have gotten to this point without her. We can’t thank her enough for all of her patience, expertise, and kindness.

I HIGHLY recommend Desiree. She is incredibly knowledgeable, and professional. My only regret is not using her services sooner! My almost 8 month old had not ever slept through the night, and would pretty much always end up co- sleeping with us because that's the only way any of us would sleep. I saw a post from a friend about Desiree and inquired, as I was up for anything that would help. After 3 weeks working with Desiree my daughter is in a consistent sleep routine, nap routine, sleeping through the night and going to bed at 7pm with little to no tears. I never imagined her being able to do that. It leaves much more relaxing time in the evenings, and some time to spend one on one with my oldest. Not to mention, the MUCH better mood my baby is in now that she's getting the kind of sleep she needs. If you're debating whether you should have Desiree as your sleep coach, JUST DO IT! You will not regret it.

After almost 2 months of having our 22 month old wake up each night and co-sleep in our bed, we were exhausted! A second baby on her way, and we just needed to take a step back and to seek help. My wife reached out to fellow parents in a private group on Facebook. Obtaining various feedbacks (i.e., have him [our toddler] cry it out, wait a few more weeks - it will pass), we decided to speak with a professional, Desiree, who was recommended by a fellow mom. And, THANK GOODNESS! Honestly, there are a lot of different sleep coaches out there advertising on IG or other social media portals, and we even mentioned that in our introductory call with Desiree - but what convinced us (1) She is down to earth and very easy to talk to (2) an experienced mom - a mom of 3 (2 of which are her first born twins!) (3) We connected with her immediately - she didn't sound like our horrible car dealership salesperson trying to sell product over product (4) She had different packages available, which were priced well (for our budget) , and looking back, we felt like the amount and quality of her services/ information exceeded our expectations for the price we paid (5) our package was customized to address the root cause of the issues with our toddler's sleep regression (and surely, we were SHOCKED at what we were doing wrong). As soon as we started, she actually kept tabs on us - emailed us how we were doing, which was pleasantly surprising given that she mentioned that if we do not speak with her (initiate any conversations), she assumes we're OK! Ultimately, we did have a few specific questions, and she responded very timely. All in all - we can write a lot more on how were so so so happy we found Desiree! We, as new parents, learned A LOT! And coming out of our session with Desiree - our toddler and us are well rested and HAPPY! Thank you!

I have a 7 month old baby boy and although I love him dearly, he was driving me and my husband nuts at night! He would wake up around 4-5 times a night and the only thing he wanted was to nurse, if only for a few minutes, then drift off to sleep again. He was happy doing this forever. I wasn't. I was totally sleep deprived and feeling very desperate for some relief and for some help from my husband. I felt like I was the only one who could get my son to sleep day or night because he would only fall asleep nursing. So, I hired Desiree from a Facebook referral to help me sleep-train my son. I was scared to let him cry, not "be there for him". Desiree had options that were more gentle or more direct and she reassured me, he would sleep and this was good for him. She wrote my son up a customized sleep plan after tracking his sleep for several days. She really studied my son, individually! I felt like she understood him when giving us a plan. She also provides email support during the sleep training process and very quickly replied within a few moments even sometimes! She is super supportive, informative, knowledgeable and patient. I opted to have our calls be Skype calls and she is accommodating to lots of different time slots and days if you are very busy and scheduling is easy. I am now 2 weeks through sleep training and my son sleeps 10-12 hours at night, no longer nurses to sleep and naps up to 2 hours at a time! She's a lifesaver and an asset to any parent who is dreading sleep with their infant on a daily basis. Hire her, seriously. She's so worth it.

We had a great experience working with Desiree! Our son, who is now 9 months old had been waking several times in the night (up to 4 times a night), and getting up for the day as early as 4 AM. We started working with Desiree, and by the end of the process, our son was sleeping through the night a full 12 hours and able to go to sleep independently. Desiree is very flexible, and very responsive. Anytime we had a question, she’d respond same-day, if not within an hour or two of when we reached out. The plan was individualized, and she walked us through everything. I can not recommend this business enough if you are struggling with a sleep schedule for your baby!

Desiree was an absolute pleasure to work with! We contacted her after we'd endured months of a downward spiral with our 2.5 year old's sleep. As so many other parents in this situation have noted, I'm only sorry we didn't do this so so much sooner! Desiree was truly knowledgeable about toddler behaviors and what it would take to get us all back on track. It was worth every penny to have someone determine a set plan for us and then be such a moral support all along the way. Desiree went above and beyond always answering all our questions thoroughly and quickly so that we could implement any changes we needed to immediately. We always struggle with how to communicate certain things to our toddler when trying to set boundaries and Desiree even helped write up little scripts of exactly what we could say to our daughter. After just two weeks of working with Desiree we now have our evenings back as well as full nights of sleep! I would highly recommend any parents struggling with sleep troubles (even ones that seem unsurmountable like ours!) to work with Desiree. As I said, my only regret is not doing this much, much sooner!

We had a great experience working with Desiree. She laid out the exact plan we needed and was very supportive and responsive over email and on the phone throughout the whole process. We were really looking for 'an intervention' with our little one's sleep and that's what we got! After assessing our little one's needs she wrote up a plan and helped us work the plan to achieve our goals. ABSOLUTELY recommend her to anyone needing help with sleep training.

If you are experiencing sleep troubles with your little one/s I highly recommend Desiree! Not only is she competitive in terms of financial investment, she is extremely professional and passionate! She was impeccable with her meeting timeliness, her follow-up communication and answered emails within hours. This investment was so worth every penny - we are all sleeping soundly. I wish I would’ve contacted her sooner!

Desiree was great in helping us with our 3 year old! Her program was to the point, easy to follow, and she was quick to respond when we had any concerns. Would highly recommend her!
