About me

Welcome, Mama! I am a sleep counselor, parenting educator, and perinatal behavioral health coach with a masters degree in developmental psychology and a mom of two sweet boys! I love working with mothers who are feeling lost, unprepared, and overwhelmed with all there is to learn about parenting and postpartum. Motherhood is a journey of growth, transformation, and deep intuition—and I’m here to help you embrace every step. As a current military spouse, some of my favorite clients have been fellow military spouses. There is nothing quite like connecting with someone who truly understands the unique situation you are in, especially when your spouse is on deployment. I happily offer military discounts to any active service member or spouse! Through guidance, advocacy, and unwavering support, I’ll empower you to trust yourself, navigate change with confidence, and step into your natural strengths as a mother. You are blooming into exactly who you’re meant to be—let’s nurture that together! -Gretchen
