Infant Sleep
Establishing healthy sleep habits from early on
“I support exhausted moms go from sleepless nights to peaceful evenings using gentle, realistic sleep methods that feels align with your parenting style”
Let me guide you on how to:
Teach your baby how to fall asleep without needing your support
Avoid multiple night wakings, short naps and early morning wakings
You’re been in a cycle of waking multiple times in the night, ranging from 2-4 wakes and then have a night that “seems better” only to go back to more wakings then next night
You’re bedtime and evenings are unpredictable, never truly knowing how the night will end up
You’ve heard this is a “phase” and are waiting for your baby to get a little but older so that it will pass
You’re either feeding your baby or rocking them to sleep every time, only for them to wake up 40+ minutes after
I’m here to tell you that just because you’re a mom now, doesn’t mean you aren’t supposed to sleep again - despite everyone telling you that
You knew exactly when to put your baby down for bedtime and when was the most optimal time to feed them to decrease of eliminate night wakings
You could speak to a trusted professional who knew exactly what would guide you through multiple night wakings and short naps
You had the knowledge to navigate night wakings with confidence and felt empowered when it comes to your baby’s sleep
Putting your baby down for a nap with no tears, minimal work on your part and having a refreshing shower, followed by day a hot meal
All without feeling worried about your relationship with your baby because you’re always going to be supporting them while learning this new skill
Putting your baby to bed later, with hopes of getting a longer stretch, doing a “dreamed” to avoid one of the wake-ups to feed
Asking your friends, family, and other moms how to get your baby to sleep longer than 1 hour at a time through the night
Googling at 2a.m, what will make your baby sleep through the night and then buying all the sleep gimmicks that you have seen other moms swear made their baby sleep 6+ hour stretches at night
Quietly trying to set your baby down for a nap to grab a quick shower and as soon as you do they immediately wake up, even though they were soundly asleep right before
Feeding your baby, what feels like an extra 5 times last night because they will not settle for longer than 2 hour stretches
Only feeding your baby when they truly need to be fed and then putting them back down after and falling back asleep until the morning
The internet, your friends and family, or neighbour down the road will never be able to give you specific support that is tailored just for your little one’s needs.
What works for one baby may not work for another. I always say to the families who I support that temperament and personality play a huge role here.
Other coaches won’t take your parenting style into factor here, I do. every. time. It is SO important to me that I offer you support that feels align with you.
I have been working in paediatrics for almost TWO decades, supporting 100’s of families over the years plus I’m a mama too so I understand what you’re going through - truly!!!!
You do NOT have to keep trying to find the answer yourself. I have the one missing piece to your puzzle and I want you to have it
“I worked with Lauren before going back to work because, while my baby was already a pretty good sleeper, we had a few habits I wanted to break. Lauren’s gentle approach and constant reassurance were amazing. She provided simple, effective tips that have already made such a difference in our routines. I’m so grateful for her guidance and highly recommend working with her”!
Vanessa - Mom of a 6 month old
“We worked with Lauren when our 10 month old was still waking up multiple times a night. We had tried sleep training in the past, but it never really stuck. Lauren took our previous plan and thoughtfully adapted it to fit our child’s current age and needs, which made all the difference”.
Mom of a 10 month old
”What really stood out was the support she provided — not just during the initial phase, but also in the weeks that followed. Being able to schedule follow-up calls was incredibly helpful when we hit the occasional bump in the road.
He now sleeps through the night, both at home and while traveling — even in a pack and play, which had been a major challenge before. We’re so grateful for her expertise and would absolutely recommend her to any parent struggling with sleep issues”.
Hilary - Mom of 2
Hi, I’m Lauren
Pediatric Consultant, mom of 3 little boys, and your go-to support when navigating the exhausting nights and stressful days without having to sacrifice the connection between you and your little one or using an approach that doesn’t feel align with your parenting style.
I know what it’s like to be where you are, absolutely exhausted, unsure of what advice to follow, and wondering if you’ll ever sleep again. Desperate to get sleep, feel like myself again and for my newborn to sleep more.
I have been a Pediatric Developmental Consultant for over 15 years and feel like I have never worked a day in my life. I say that honestly, I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to work with families everyday and watch them flourish.
I was drawn to becoming a Pediatric Sleep and Toileting Consultant because of my own journey into motherhood. I am not someone who does well without adequate sleep so I knew that I needed to gather as much information as possible.
I quickly became more interested when I was able to practise my new found strategies on my little ones and watched my life transform as I was able to sleep through the night sooner than I thought possible. I did newborn sleep shaping with all my boys and am forever grateful I learned about it early on.
Fast forward to today and of course, they have nights where they wake, that’s normal but no bedtime battles of sleep struggles at our house!
It’s SO possible to sleep again, being a mom doesn’t mean you don’t get your restful nights back. Let’s make this happen for you too!

Moms who are juggling multiple kids and are ready to get the sleep they require so the have enough energy to keep up

Moms who aren’t afraid to ask questions to ensure they access all of my supports
The moms who are done searching online for conflicting information and ready to learn from an expert who understands their unique situation
The moms who are willing to put the work in, even when it gets hard for long-term gains

How It Works
LEARN ABOUT BABY’S SLEEP
Having a true understanding about your baby’s sleep will make all the difference when you’re trying to navigate multiple wakings and short naps. Now that your baby has shifted to their permanent sleep cycle so it’s important to learn the intricate details. I want you to feel prepared and confident for when you’re at home but also on-the-go.
IMPLEMENT A FLEXIBLE SCHEDULE
Despite what you may have heard, having a flexible schedule with your baby means it doesn’t have to be rigid. Now that you’re out of the house more you can still have a schedule, that is baby-led. Little one’s thrive on predictability, yes, even from a young age. This doesn’t have to feel stressful but rather will be helpful for you too.
SET-UP THE ENVIRONMENT
You probably noticed that your newborn seemed to be able to sleep anywhere but now that your baby is past that stage, it isn’t the case anymore and there’s a reason for that. Setting the environment for sleep success is key as they grow and develop and you’ll learn exactly why that is.
UNDERSTAND STRONG ROUTINES
Having a strong routine will make all the difference. We aren’t just teaching our children healthy sleep habits without including all the details that surround this. Again, babies thrive on routine and predictability, of course we want them to be flexible too but it’s important that they know what to expect.
TEACHING A NEW SKILL
Sleep is a SKILL, babies need us to teach them this skill and what they associate with sleeping. You will learn how to gently guide them along when learning this new skill in a supportive way. You will be supporting them and I will be supporting for you. We will not let your baby cry on their own without reassurance - a child doesn’t just learn how to walk, we teach them, we guide them, in a positive supportive space - this is no different.
As your coach, I will be your biggest cheerleader, I will always be there in your back pocket with you need sound advice while being your calm when you feel overwhelmed. I promise to meet you where you’re at and support you on this journey.
