About me

My mission at Healthy Happy Sleep is to equip parents with the knowledge and skills required to lay a healthy sleep foundation for their child(ren). I believe the positive effects of learning to sleep well will last a lifetime! Healthy Happy Sleep is a place to find help, support, and guidance without judgment or guilt. As a mother of seven children and two-stepsons, I’ve experienced and overcome my share of sleep challenges! I am also a certified child sleep consultant through the Family Sleep Institute where I received one-on-one instruction with founder, Deborah Pedrick. Throughout the course of my certification I completed over 70+ hours of training and currently attend continuing education classes and seminars regularly. I am qualified to work with children from newborns through age 5, as well as multiples and children with special needs.

Service introduction

Sleep consults are typically done over the phone, via email, in person, and/or via text messaging. After you purchase a sleep package, I’ll send you an intake form for you to fill out and email back to me. This is how I will initially learn about your child’s sleep issues and sleep history. After I receive it back, we’ll schedule a 30-45 minute phone call to go over any questions I may have before creating your child’s customized sleep plan. Depending on which package you choose, I’ll walk you through how to implement the plan and how to tackle any surprises that may come up throughout the course of the plan. It typically takes 1-2 weeks to see signs of permanent progress. Some kids take longer and some respond more quickly. Some methods are faster, and some take more patience on our part to see them through. In every case the fundamental difference is whether or not the parents are consistent. If you stick to the plan and stay in touch with me regularly, the amount of time it takes to see results will be greatly reduced.
