Sleep Consulting

Sleep Consulting
Newborn, Infant & Toddler Sleep Support

Everyone knows that newborns sleep a lot. But did you know that baby sleep changes frequently over the first year?

 

While it’s normal to struggle with your baby’s sleep, at East Coast Baby Co., we can help you meet your baby’s changing needs and teach healthy sleep habits from the very beginning.

Society says…

x Never wake a sleeping baby

x If your baby is crying, it means they’re hungry

x Keeping your baby up longer during the day means they’ll sleep better at night

√ It’s ok to wake your baby (to eat, or to balance their day/night sleep)!

√ Babies cry as a form of communication—it may mean they need food, sleep, a diaper change, snuggles, or something else!

√ Sleep begets sleep!

We Can Help

Let us help you lay a healthy sleep foundation for your children!

 

A mom of two, owner Laura Fitzgerald sleep trained her own children at an early age because she valued sleep, and she knew that both her children—and her whole family—would benefit from being well rested. She feels strongly that by teaching independent sleep skills, you are giving your child a life-long skill.

Sleep Support You Can Trust

At East Coast Baby Co., we know that if your baby isn’t sleeping, you’re not sleeping either.

 

Your sleep consultant will discuss in detail the issues you’re facing with regards to your baby’s sleep habits, and offer solutions and support options that align with your parenting style, will best support your child’s sleep needs, and help you achieve your sleep goals.

 

And before our time is through, we’ll arm you with the confidence and knowledge to support your child’s changing sleep needs as they grow!
