“Like you, I was an exhausted parent struggling to get my child to sleep and stay asleep. My family suffered through months of frustrating, sleepless nights and I was desperate for help.
After failed attempts at various “cry it out” methods I was introduced to a gentler approach to sleep training by a true expert in the field, Kim West, aka “The Sleep Lady.” With Kim’s guidance I was able to teach my child to sleep through the night in less than two weeks with a minimum of tears. Most importantly, I never had to leave my child alone to “cry it out”. It was a life changing experience for my family and inspired my commitment to help others.
If you’re a new mom with questions and concerns about your baby’s sleep or the parent of an older child that has trouble falling asleep and/or staying asleep, I look forward to offering you the personalized guidance and support you need to have a well rested family.” – Alison Bevan
