I am a wife and mom to 2 girls. I know what's it's like to be an exhausted mom, that was me before I found this amazing sleep program. After I solved their sleep it became my passion and my career. I love helping families get their little ones sleeping independently through the night so they can have their beds back! Your children need a full night of uninterrupted sleep and so do you! Let’s talk about how a customized sleep plan and follow up support can help get your child sleeping all night.

Hello to all, my name is Paulla and I'm a certified birth doula, postpartum doula, and breastfeeding counselor. I am also into holistic medicine. I love what I do and can't wait to see all you beautiful faces.

My practice is based on the science of sleep. Knowing how and why we sleep is key to being able to come up with solutions for those who are not sleeping. This foundational knowledge allows me to create unique and customizable sleep plans for children. Working collaboratively with parents allows me to effectively support them in their quest to being a well-rested family. Sleep is not a one stop shop and sleep methods will vary from child to child. My knowledge of numerous methods allows me to work with all types of families.

I’m a mama of two beautiful boys, a Registered Nurse since 2006 with a Masters Degree, and a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant through The Family Sleep Institute. Most importantly, I’m a lifeline and resource for all you mamas and papas that feel like you’re beyond exhausted and overwhelmed with your child’s sleep issues. I know when people hear ‘sleep training’ a number of different things can come to mind. To me, sleep training is a fluid process and you and I are a team working together to get your kiddo sleeping well (so that you can start sleeping well too!). My methods are evidence-based, scientifically backed, and fully researched. There is no one-size-fits-all plan or method. The method is actually the smallest piece of the puzzle. There are a number of important components of healthy sleep that I will help you establish right from the start. I want to get to know you, your child, your parenting style, and then see how sleep training can work for you, in a way that makes sense for your family. My sleep plans are family-focused, flexible, respectful, and mindfully created. I know what it’s like to feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and frustrated with a baby that won’t sleep and I am here to support you to your sleep goals.

I’m Larissa (she/ela/ella), a birth and postpartum doula based in Philadelphia, PA.

Hi everyone I’m Ari! (she/they) I'm a Trained Full Spectrum Doula located in Philadelphia, PA. I’m dedicated to providing trauma-informed, client-centered, and affirming care for all. My background in art and passion for research motivate me to offer imaginative, evidence-based birth education and holistic support. To read testimonials from parents who have trusted me to be a part of their experience, follow this link: https://doulamatch.net/profile/34407/ari-eisen. As a birth doula, my focus is on prenatal education that centers physical, emotional, social, and spiritual factors impacting your pregnancy and parenthood journey. I'm here to support your unique vision for your birth experience and serve as your advocate in times of need. I understand that the bodymind is vulnerable and reactive to regimes of oppression. My goal is to uplift the innate beauty and strength of all bodies, with a focus on supporting LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC parents in navigating barriers to just medical care (though I work with parents of all identities). I am sensitive to the institutions and practices that contribute to poor maternal and birth outcomes and I maintain that anti-racism is essential to holistic carework. For years, I've engaged in embodiment practices such as yoga, meditation, and acupuncture to deepen my connection with bodymind intelligence and navigate my own chronic pain journey gracefully. Throughout my various doula trainings, I've upheld my values, which I'm eager to share with you. It would be an honor to be your guide and provide you with compassionate, radically inclusive support.
