My daughter’s sleep was going really well until she was 3 months old, when she started rolling and we had to stop swaddling her. From 3 to 11 months she never slept through the night, waking every 3-4 hours. I was exhausted, she would scream if left alone, and I felt as if I had tried everything book and online course I could find. A friend referred me to Sleep Wise, and after just 2 days with the program, my daughter was sleeping 12 hours through the night! After 4 weeks of the program, once I placed her in the crib, she was waving at me to leave (while I was still telling her goodnight) so she could go to sleep! If you are struggling with your child to sleep, don’t hesitate; this program is amazing! Kelsey, was fantastic to work with, so supportive and kind! She answered every question I had and made the process as smooth as it could possibly be.
Do it now! If you are on the fence about hiring a sleep consultant, just do it. I wish I would’ve done it sooner. Lindsay is AH-MAZING! My 2 toddlers who share the same room, now go to sleep on their own without melatonin, me holding them, singing to them or even rocking them. I am no longer in the room or doing this long exhausting night routine that wasn’t successful, and then having 5+ wake-ups every night. Now, I just say, “Goodnight, see you in the morning” and they go down without a fight at 7:30pm and wake up at 7am. I have regained my sanity! I didn’t have a ton of faith at the beginning that it would work but I was desperate. Being accountable and having Lindsay’s support really motivated me. I cannot recommend this enough! You won’t regret it!
My son was a great sleeper until he was a month old and then the only place he would sleep was in my arms or in his dock-a-tot. He would have to be rocked, walked and the pacifier in his mouth to sleep. THEN, when he was 3 months old I reached out to Dana! Wow, did she change our lives! He is an amazing sleeper now ❤️ He goes to bed at 7pm WIDE AWAKE and puts himself to sleep (sucking his thumb) and stays asleep until 6:30-7:00am! I never in my wildest dreams thought it would be possible but with Dana’s guidance and support my son sleeps like a dream! No pacifier, no rocking, no walking.. I just read him a book and lay him down. I am truly grateful from the bottom of my heart!
I need to give a big shout out to Nikki Smith – she helped us sleep train our almost 2-1/2 year old!!
For the last 5 months, every night was literally a fight to get Dani to bed. I was the only one who did bedtime because it was such a struggle and I would lay with her for 30-45 minutes until she fell asleep and I could sneak out. In the middle of the night (sometimes as early as 10:30 pm) Dani would come to our room and I would pull her into bed do we could all get some “sleep”. I was ok with co-sleeping but what I struggled with was that she would wake up as soon as I left the bed to try to get a workout in or take some “me time” in the morning. I was beyond exhausted. 3 weeks ago tonight, we started Sleep Wise training with Nikki and here’s the result of what bedtime looks like now. Dani sleeps through the night and is so happy. This Mama is so thankful, happy, and RESTED!! Thank you, thank you, thank you Nikki!”
Marissa has changed our baby’s sleep habits in ways we could have never imagined! My babe is a tough nut to crack when it comes to sleeping, but Marissa was able to tackle my once nursed-to-sleep-all-day-and-night sweet mama’s girl and help me get her sleeping through the night AND napping in her crib. She has been the sweetest and most patient person to work with and I could not be more thankful. I truly feel like a new (rested) person and also feel like I’ve gained a friend! Could not recommend Marissa and sleepwise more! I will be telling everyone I meet!
I had severe anxiety about bedtime with our baby girl. I nursed her to sleep at night and wanted to make a transition so that my husband was able to put her to sleep. We worked with Allison and I couldn’t be happier. She coached us every step of the way and made us feel so comfortable. Our baby girl responded so well my husband and I were shocked! I am so happy that we made this decision. I would highly recommend Sleep Wise and Allison!
Before working with Erica our twins were getting up 4 to 6 times a night, and never at the same time. They seemed like they wanted to eat and would only go back to sleep if I fed them. After working with Erica and using sleep wise our twins now sleep 11 to 12 hours a night straight and nap 2 to 3 hours during the day and two sessions while putting themselves to sleep in under five minutes. Their self-soothing techniques have enabled them to be independent sleepers and our lives are better for it, we are well rested and able to use a predictable routine that is sustainable and we are so much more productive because of it. Erica was so easy to work with responding to my texts and questions in a timely manner and reassured me through the entire process!
I have worked with Sleep Wise to improve the sleep for my oldest son and myself. When my 3 month old was waking as many as 12 times a night I knew that working with them again would get my baby sleeping well and get my spouse and I back to being rested.
Nikki’s knowledge and passion for helping families is very clear in the way that she helped me and my husband help our son. She encouraged us on the tough days and was always willing to trouble shoot the issues that came up. Nikki is very kind and understanding for how emotional sleep training can be for parents. She was always happy to calm my nerves. She was focused on reaching our sleep goals and encouraged us to take care of ourselves during the process.
It was not long before or baby was sleeping 12 hours only waking once to feed and then putting himself back to sleep with ease. It brings joy to my heart to see how excited my son is for bed/nap time. He looks forward to rest. Better yet I no longer dread bedtime because I also know I will get the sleep I need to support my mental health and body.
I have always said that working with Sleep Wise is the best thing I have ever done for myself. Getting sleep back as a new mother is life changing. Because I know the power of good rest. But it’s also the best thing I can give my children. I know that these skills will follow them into adulthood. I am forever grateful to Nikki and the whole Sleep Wise team.
We were zombies passing a six-month-old baby between us at 3 am every night! Feedings every three hours still and we “slept” a three hour shift with a “sleeping” baby on our chest in the recliner until it was time to pass the baby for the next shift. Try as we might, naps were unpredictable in location, time and duration. We were super parents and thought we were doing it, until we weren’t!
I had the contact information and a referral to Marissa that I sat on for two months! If you think there must be a better way to do this sleep thing, there is. Make the call/send the email and WRITE THE CHECK! It took us a week to schedule the start because of our schedule. Marissa prepared us well and wrote a great plan. We both referred to it many times! We were too exhausted from our lack of sleep to actually remember from one day to the next, but we had the instructions in writing.
The first night was hard because we were exhausted, but with Marissa’s text support we got through it. The second night, he only woke once! The third night, he slept for TWELVE HOURS no middle of the night feedings! Morning nap was TWO HOURS. Afternoon nap took him a few weeks. It took us a week to stop being zombies and adjust to actually getting sleep at night.
A month after sleep training we went on vacation (flew to another city and stayed in a hotel for four nights). Marissa prepared us for this. No problem! He followed the routine and went right to sleep. He didn’t mind the strange location that didn’t get quite dark, sleeping in a crib that looked like a jail cell, or even Grammie putting him down for a nap.
We recommend Marissa to every new parent, second-time parent, third-time parent and grandparent! Marissa helped us find ourselves again and our happy baby is now happy and well-rested. Even while teething and fussy, he recognizes the routine and goes right to sleep. It’s been a dream!
I was completely shocked that Sleep Wise got my baby to sleep through the night and helped me met my sleep goals. I tried so many sleep training books and techniques before that and even successfully slept trained my older two but for some reason, just about nothing worked for third baby. I had a lot of doubts since I paid for other courses too which didn’t work, but it took just a night or two working with Kelsey that my baby went from waking 3-4 times for feeds to sleeping 11 hours. Having an experienced sleep consultant really helps to provide some hand-holding and make little tweaks that I wouldn’t have thought of myself through the rough sleep-training process. Thank a lot Sleep Wise!
We never had to do formal sleep training for our first son, so when my second son’s sleep started to become erratic at 3 months old, I knew I had to do something. I met Nikki virtually in my CrossFit moms group and she was so kind and gave me some tips here and there. But I knew something more official had to be done. I was not able to get anything done because I was exhausted, and I couldn’t focus on quality time with my other son. I scheduled my free phone consultation with her, and when she called my baby and I were literally both crying after another failed nap attempt. After filling out the questionnaire, and receiving a custom sleep plan for my son, I started that very night. I admit, I was skeptical. How could these simple changes just change my baby’s poor sleeping habits? Well they did. The very next day my baby took THREE SOLID NAPS. And within the next two weeks, his naps stayed consistent, AND he either slept through the night or only woke once to feed. I felt like a new person! Thanks to his great sleep, I was able to finally get things done, give myself some self care and workout! AND he was happier and nursing better. I can’t say enough great things about Sleep Wise and Nikki. She gave me amazing text and phone support. We will be sending our toddler to Sleep School next!
Our toddler suddenly went through a major sleep regression- waking up several times through the night and at 4 am for the day. She refused to sleep unless one of us stayed with her. It was taking a toll on all of us so we reached out to Jeannine Conte. Jeannine listened to our concerns and came up with a plan that we were comfortable with so all we needed to do was to follow through. Our child responded positively after the first night and the check in calls with Jeannine were very helpful for us to stay consistent and on track. Within a few days, we were all back to sleeping well again. We really enjoyed working with Jeannine and would not hesitate to recommend our friends to her!
