One thing I always have been great at is having a natural knack to getting babies and toddlers to sleep. So often I would have parents ask me how on earth I got their child to sleep when it's always a battle with them and many have called me a baby whisperer. I have always been great at reading sleepy cues and just knew how to naturally set up the baby's schedule. I stumbled upon sleep consulting when one family I worked for was having a very hard time getting their toddler to nap. She would need to be fed to sleep and would wake up 20-40 minutes later. After some research I realized she was so use to being fed to sleep that she had no clue how to independently link her sleep cycles. This poor baby was chronically overtired and it affected her attention span on activities and her mood. I started to implement some techniques I read about and within a few days I was able to slowly lengthen her naps allowing her to get sufficient day time sleep. It was while I was researching that I stumbled upon sleep consulting and I immediately knew I wanted to become a certified sleep consultant, not just to be able to have my own business and help tired parents, but to offer this valuable skill for future families I nanny for. I completed my certification for sleep consulting and newborn sleep with The Institute of Pediatric Sleep and Parenting in March 2022 and am excited to start this journey!

In September 2022 I also became a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician. In 2023 I upgraded my skills for working with newborn sleep by completing the Newborn Sleep Specialist course with the Institute of Pediatric Sleep and Parenting.

In 2024 I decided to further my education to be able to provide more support and services to parents. Through the Institute of Pediatric Sleep and Parenting, I became certified in Special Needs Sleep and Baby Sign Language Education.
