“We thought we could manage sleep solo with our son, but quickly realized that every baby is different and the approach really should be personalized.”
We have been fortunate to partner with Halie Powell to teach both of our babies independent sleep skills and can confidently say that connecting with her is one of our best parenting decisions to date. Halie extended so much kindness and grace to us as first time parents and really carried us through hardship when we didn’t believe sleep was possible. We began working with Halie when our daughter was about 2 months old — no one was sleeping, the paci ping pong game was exhausting, and we felt like we were failing. She is almost 2.5 now and has had very few regressions/disruptions as Halie helped us lay the independent sleep foundation for her early on. Not only do we feel confident in her sleep skills, but our daughter also feels confident. She knows when she needs rest and will ask to go to her crib so she can sleep. We connected with Halie again and she helped us meet our son where he was. We saw incredible progress within the first few days and Halie stuck with us through some hiccups over holidays. He caught on and now sleeps 11-12 hours overnight. If he has a waking, he can typically settle back down without issue. That’s not to say we don’t have to make adjustments along the way but Sleep Wise has you covered there too. The online REM community, specifically Kelsey and Erica, continues to offer us ongoing support for which we are very thankful!
Babies aren’t robots and it’s not a quick scheme to guarantee sleep, but if you’re ready to put in the work to support your little(s) through the learning process, Sleep Wise will get you there and help keep you there. Sufficient rest changes everything and our family is much happier for it.
Thank you Halie for your partnership in our parenting journey. You have been such a blessing to us and we are forever grateful for you!
