Karen Winter Sleep Coach in Menomonee Falls, WI
About Karen
Hi, I’m Karen Winter, a certified pediatric sleep consultant specializing in toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2–7). I know how exhausting sleep challenges can be, I’ve been there as a parent myself. That personal experience, along with over 20 years of working with children, fuels my passion for helping families overcome bedtime battles, nighttime wake-ups, nap refusals, and other toddler sleep struggles with confidence and clarity. Many sleep consultants focus primarily on infants, but toddler and preschooler sleep comes with an entirely different set of challenges. I’ve made it my mission to fill that gap. From bedtime resistance to middle-of-the-night wake-ups and nap transitions, I specialize in helping families with children ages 2–7 build healthy sleep habits without power struggles or confusion. This age-specific expertise is what sets my work apart and why so many families come to me after other methods haven’t worked.

Quiet Time Toolkit
What if your child could play calmly and independently, even without a nap? The Quiet Time Toolkit helps you reclaim that essential midday pause using a simple, respectful method that works for kids ages 2–7. Inside, I’ll show you exactly how to introduce quiet time, even if your child has never done it before (or has been resisting it). You’ll learn how to set it up, make it fun and safe, and gently stretch their independence, so you both get a little breathing room. You’ll get: The Stoplight Method, a visual approach to teach kids when it’s time to play quietly Age-appropriate quiet time bin ideas (no prep needed!)

Sensory Seeking Activities for Bedtime
My Sensory Seeking Activities Toolkit is a collection of calming, body-smart activities designed to help your child release energy in a healthy way before it spills over into bedtime chaos. When kids don’t get the sensory input their bodies are craving, it shows up as bouncing off the walls, bedtime struggles, or meltdowns you never saw coming. This toolkit helps you meet their needs before that happens. Grab the toolkit here: https://winterslumber.systeme.io/sensory-toolkit
