About Us
Being a parent is hard work. There are days filled with laughing and hugs and kisses, but how do you enjoy them when you're up all night with a baby who won't sleep? At Sleep Baby, our team of professional baby sleep consultants is here to help.
We want every family to experience the gift of a good nights sleep. It sounds simple, but anyone who has brought a baby into their home knows it isn't. Whether it's your newborn baby or your preschooler who is suddenly pulling all-nighters that rival your college days, our goal is to help you guide them to sleeping on their own, all night long so you all can get the restorative rest you need.
Here at Sleep Baby, we want to get to know your family and your particular needs and desires so we can develop a custom sleep plan that works for you. Much more than a sample sleep schedule, this plan will be tailored to your baby and what you want for your family. Not only that, we want to stick with you while you put the plan into action which is why all of our consulting packages come with one on one support with a certified sleep consultant. Think of us as your trusted friend, who is also a professional baby sleep consultant, ready to answer all your baby and toddler questions, encourage you when things get tricky and celebrate when you succeed.
We have sleep consultants for infants and toddlers located in Charlotte, NC; Atlanta, GA; and Denver, CO and are happy to work with clients all over the world through virtual consults on the phone or video.
Sleep Baby was started out of a passion of mothers helping mothers. Our goal is always to help parents grow in confidence in their role while we are teaching their baby sleep skills like self-soothing and taking long naps. With Sleep Baby, you’ll experience judgment-free sleep coaching for your baby or toddler and incredible sleep through our developed methods. We are proud to be a woman-owned small business and are grateful you would trust Sleep Baby with questions about your baby or toddler’s sleep. We believe a baby who sleeps through the night can truly change your entire family. We’ve coached thousands of families virtually and in person to help their babies and toddlers start sleeping better. Our holistic, baby-centered approach to sleep shaping and sleep training puts your family’s needs first and works with your baby’s body to get them the rest they need to grow and develop!
I am a wife and busy mom of four (including two year old twins) who survives each day because of good sleep and coffee! I have lived in the Atlanta area for the majority of my life. In addition to being the owner of Sleep Baby, I also own and run a Nursery School in Roswell, Georgia. My passion for sleep comes from my own high need for sleep. Before having my first daughter, I thoroughly researched the science of infant sleep habits. This knowledge left me feeling empowered and prepared for motherhood. I started sharing my passion for infant sleep by offering sleep coaching to the families that attend my daycare. Knowing how much the families appreciated the help, I wanted to take my learning and expertise further and join the Sleep Baby team. I was mentored by the Founder of Sleep Baby and eventually became the owner. I love allowing parents to see the correlation between healthy sleep, eating, playing, and overall child development. More than anything, I love that our personalized packages make parents feel heard, confident, and successful when juggling the hectic life of parenthood. My teaching background has made coaching our team of consultants fun and exciting! Whether I am helping my clients, friends or coaching a consultant, helping families is my passion.

I'm Lauren! I currently live in Charlotte, NC with my husband and three kids. After several moves and transitions for my husband's job in the military, we are here to stay! You can usually find me pushing my youngest in the jogging stroller while trying to keep up with my big kids on their bikes, or dreaming of traveling to somewhere I have never been before!
When my oldest was only two months old, my husband was called away for 6 months. I knew we had to get her sleeping well before he left. Since then, I have always had a love for helping babies and toddlers be their best little selves, and believe that it begins with great sleep habits and confident caregivers. I want to come alongside you and equip you with the tools used to instill great sleep habits - whether you have a newborn or 4 year old!

Hi! I’m Danielle! I live In Ponte Vedra, FL with my husband and 4 crazy kiddos! When I am not wearing a Taxi or Chef Hat – because someone is always hungry or needs to get to a practice – you will find me outside playing with the kids, walking, spending time with friends or enjoying the beach or pool! In the sun is my happy place – Thank goodness we moved back to Florida!
When, my first son was 6 weeks old we moved away from all of our family to NC. Even though I had nannied for years and been a teacher until his birth - I didn’t have a clue what I was doing with this little sleepless nugget in my arms… We did the best we knew how but in turn created a bedtime/naptime monster…. When number 2 came along, I decided we couldn’t go down the same path with her. That is when I dove into anything “sleep” I could find and made some big changes that truly made our lives as parents and as a family so much more enjoyable! It wasn’t easy but worth every minute of work! After many more moves and 2 more kids – SLEEP has stayed a constant priority for my kiddos. I may have even become a bit of a joke to some of my friends when my 13-year-old was still going to sleep (on non-practice nights) by 8pm! Let’s just say – we are all happier when we sleep well!
I love talking about and giving tips to family and friends about their baby's sleep. I look forward to putting in the work with your family to get everyone the great sleep you deserve!

Hi! I’m Hanna! I currently live in Roswell, GA with my husband and 2 precious boys. I’ve lived in Georgia all my life, but I love working with families from all over! When I’m not working, or feeding and chasing down my wild ones, I’m typically catching up on TV shows, reading, spending time with friends, or exercising. I love walking outside and since becoming a mom I have found that outside time can fix almost anything…a grumpy mood, a tired or overactive child, or even if you just need a good reset for the day. It also helps us get better sleep!
Sleep has always been extremely important to me. When I was pregnant with my first son, I knew that figuring out how to get him to sleep well was a top priority. If I’m exhausted, I’m just not the best mom that I can be. Learning about sleep and feeding schedules and following the right versions of those schedules for our family saved us and made both of my boys fantastic sleepers. I’ve become incredibly passionate about helping parents in their sleep journeys. While there isn't a one size fits all approach, good sleep CAN be achieved for the whole family…and I would love the opportunity to help you achieve it!

I'm Camie! I'm a wife and a mother to two beautiful babies - a preschooler boy and a sweet baby girl. We live in beautiful Colorado and love being outside any chance we can get.
I have always wanted to be a mama, and after years of infertility we welcomed our energetic boy, and sleep was a challenge from the start. Paired with my postpartum anxiety and sleep deprivation, I knew I had to get him sleeping better so that I could enjoy motherhood and him.
My personal struggles helped me build a passion for sleep and a want to help other families enjoy their babies by being more rested. Together we will learn about the unique sleep needs of your family, and your baby and partner together to build a well rested family.

Hi! I'm Julia and I live in Deltona, FL (a little town between Daytona Beach and Orlando). I have two children, toddler son and a baby girl. My passion for infant and toddler sleep all started when I was a new mom. I struggled with postpartum depression and anxiety and feared I’d never sleep again. I felt unequipped to be a mom, and many of my insecurities were around helping my son sleep. I knew I needed to help my son and myself and I started to learn about infant sleep. I put into practice all of the things I had researched and my son began to sleep and I felt like a new person.
As a "retired" elementary school teacher, I love teaching parents ways that they can help their children and themselves. My passion is to help parents shape their child's sleep from an early age, so everyone can be their best. I know so many parents struggle just like I did, and want to be part of the team to help your family.

Hi! I’m Patti Staff! I am a wife and mother to 3 amazing children. I live in Charlotte, NC but grew up right outside of Greensboro, NC. When I am not working or chasing my little ones around, Ienjoy theater, being with family, and traveling. Outside of motherhood, early childhood is my passion, especially infants and toddlers! I began caring for children when I was a teenager through neighborhood babysitting. That love turned into nannying while I earned my BA in Psychology, with a minor in Early Childhood Development. After college, I went into the Early Childhood Education field where I am currently the Director of a preschool.
I found my love for sleep after I had my first child. I thought I knew it all after caring for so many other people’s children. I was very wrong! I was struggling with sleep and dove into anything and everything I could find sleep related. If there was a book or blog about sleep, I would read it! The second time around I was confident and felt like I had the tools to make sleep as successful as possible. I found that I loved listening to other moms talk about their children’s sleep and development and giving tips to help make things a little easier for them. I believe that sleep is a gift that is given to both the child and the parent! I want to come alongside parents who are in the same position I was in, and equip them with the tools and confidence that will allow them to lay a solid foundation for healthy sleep. I am looking forward to coming alongside you to help you achieve the gift of sleep!

Hello! I’m Ensley! I am a wife and mother of four - 7 and 5 year old girls and two year old boy-girl twins! I have lived in the Atlanta area for the majority of my life. I live and breathe all things babies, toddlers, and preschool. I own and run a small nursery school, Kids on Canton, in Historic Roswell, GA.
I’ve always been a person who requires a lot of sleep. Since sleep is very important to me, I knew this was a skill that I needed to teach my babies from the beginning. With my oldest daughter, I followed a very popular formulaic sleep training method. Enter baby number two...the one-size-fits-all formula didn’t work for her! This is when I decided to expand my knowledge, learn all about healthy sleep habits, and create something that worked for our family.
My time working with infants and toddlers has allowed me to recognize the impact that healthy sleep has on eating, playing, and overall child development. My goal is to help families through their sleep journey, and I’d love to give you tools to help make you successful.
I look forward to partnering with you. They say it takes a village to raise a child, and I would be honored to be a part of your village.

Hello! I’m Heather! I live in Janesville, Wisconsin with my husband and our four legged children! You can usually find me hanging out and making memories with our nieces and nephews or helping on our family farm. We love to travel and find adventures in just about everything we do!
I have always had a strong passion to care for children, I earned my degree in Early Childhood Education and after working as a preschool teacher I became a Certified Newborn Care Specialist. Once in the industry I was intrigued by the importance of sleep in infants and children so I continued my training as a Pediatric Sleep Specialist. I love implementing and helping parents with sleep shaping and sleep training. In the past few years I noticed a increase in reflux in infants and the sleep disturbance it causes had me very interested in learning more and advocating for these tiny little humans. I went on to get my training as a Infant Reflux Practioner. I love offering families the support and education to better understand there child’s sleep! You’ll often find me rambling on and on about the benefits and importance of sleep in children! I truly believe there is great purpose in my passion and I plan to pursue it with everything I have.
I am so excited to help you understand great sleep habits and help you confidently implement sleep routines in your household. My goal is to help you and your child learn to love sleep!

Teaching your baby to sleep well (or baby sleep training as you’ve probably heard it called) is like a puzzle; there is a particular key that will make all the pieces fall into place, but it can be hard to figure out just what the key is. Books and articles can be very helpful sleep tools, but having an professional baby sleep consultant to talk with about your child who will help you make a custom plan that works for your family can be the difference between getting better sleep after a few nights and it taking months to see any changes. Our baby sleep coaches have worked with 1000s of babies and toddlers and are excited to help!
Babies cry when they aren’t happy about something, and that often includes changes to their routines! Crying is how babies communicate and isn’t always a signal that you’re doing something wrong. However, there is no evidence that the Extinction Method (leaving your child alone and letting them cry for hours on end) is more effective or necessary. We can’t tell parents that teaching your child to self soothe won’t include any crying, but we will never tell you to ignore your babies cries and are not a proponent of the Extinction Method.
Yes! Our infant sleep consultants love to talk with parents about these things and how to manage them while developing strong, positive sleep habits. Short naps and the 4 month sleep regression are both very common in infants and we can work through sleep problems in a way that feels comfortable to your family and gets you and your baby sleeping better.
We love working with newborn sleep! If you are looking for a true no-cry approach to sleep training, starting at the beginning is the way to go! For newborns, we don't focus on traditional infant sleep training, instead we use sleep shaping strategies to help your baby build good habits around sleep, even in those first few weeks, and help parents grow in confidence and skill. Our Virtual New Baby Bootcamp is a complete newborn sleep school where you will learn everything you need to know about setting up good sleep habits with your newborn at your own pace. If you're looking for more, upgrade and add on a call with one of our incredible infant sleep consultants!
Like with everything else, every baby is a little different in how they respond to sleep training. Our sleep consultations typically last for 2 weeks while you get support from your baby sleep coach. During those two weeks, we will troubleshoot what's happening, encourage you, and make changes to your baby sleep plan as needed. We provide baby sleep help PLUS an expert baby or toddler sleep coach in your corner who has worked with many babies to teach them how to become amazing sleepers!
Our team is made up of the BEST baby and toddler sleep consultants out there. We're passionate about parents and helping them enjoy their babies! Getting good rest goes a long way to accomplishing that. Our goal isn’t to give you a a few sleep training tips and send you on your way, we want to be a friend who comes along side you with helpful advice and encouragement as you and your little one learn just what they need to sleep better! That’s why many of our baby and toddler sleep consulting packages come with unlimited texting and email after the initial consult. Your baby sleep coach is available to answer questions as they arise, encourage you, and to celebrate with you when you succeed!
Not at all! We have consultants based in Charlotte, NC; Atlanta, GA; Loveland, CO; and Jacksonville, FL so this is where we offer in home consultations. However, we have worked with clients all over the US and world including places like New York City, San Francisco, Dallas, Nashville, London, and more! Most of our baby sleep consults are completely virtually via phone or FaceTime.
When you decide to work with a baby sleep consultant or baby sleep coach, you are bringing an expert into your village. Adding a new person to your family is a huge change and you shouldn't expect yourself to know how to handle everything new that is coming your way! If your baby needed help with feeding you'd go to feeding specialist and sleep is the same way! Whether you're looking for a baby sleep consultant or toddler sleep consultant, our team is ready to support you through your baby sleep training journey as you help your child establish independent sleep habits that will allow them to sleep through the night (in their own bed!) and take beautiful long naps. Whether you're starting from the beginning or have been struggling with sleep for several months, our experienced sleep consultants are here for you!
Yes! The toddler years are a really special time and their sleep needs are beginning to look very different than they did as a newborn. Toddler sleep consulting looks different too! We focus on the whole child and their needs around healthy sleep schedules and boundaries for their age. Toddler sleep coaching means we will be in your corner with tools, toddler sleep tips, and cheering you on as your toddler or preschooler gets the rest their body needs for development and growth.
So many babies have a hard time settling into the sleep that their body desperately needs! This is very common and our team of baby sleep consultants have worked with thousands of families coaching them through this exact issue. Every baby is a little bit different and we will work with you to determine the root cause of your baby's sleep struggles and create a plan that will get them on the path to great sleep!

“We were so hesitant to "sleep train", but finally after 14 months of poor sleep we knew we needed to try something new. My son had never been able to fall asleep on his own, couldn't sleep more than a few hours at a time, and often ended up in our bed because it was the only way we could get any sleep. Lauren understood our anxiety about the process and she helped us implement a plan that we were comfortable with. By night 3 my son was happily putting himself to sleep AND sleeping through the night. We still can't believe this is real! Working with Sleep Baby was truly life changing for our family - I cannot recommend her and Sleep Baby highly enough!”
“We worked with Sleep Baby when our twins were just 3 months old to start giving them foundational sleeping skills. I was one tired Mama and not able to rock both to sleep at the same time. Since that first time working together, the boys got really good at being independent sleepers and going to sleep on their own. But around 8 months, we started seeing naps were becoming harder and the 45-minute intruder came knocking. Sleep Baby worked with us to update their schedule and get them back on track. In the process of doing that, it helped give me my confidence back since their sleep is a major source of anxiety. I can't thank the team enough, and could not recommend them more highly! They are worth every penny.”
Elizabeth King is A.Maz.Ing. Seriously. For the first 7-8 months of my daughter’s life she was waking every 1-2 hours at night, staying awake for 30-60 minutes at a time during the night, and only napping twice a day for 20 mins each nap. It was an exhausting nightmare. I debated about contacting Elizabeth for over a month because “I shouldn’t have to pay someone to get my child to sleep; it’s not worth it”; oh my word, it was worth every penny and more! Within a week of talking to Elizabeth and using her schedule and suggestions, my daughter was sleeping for 1.5 hours in the morning, 2-2.5 hours in the afternoon, and only waking once at night (from 7 pm- 7 am)- which was phonemail compared to where we started!! Even extended family and friends noticed a change in Jane and how much happier/more content she had become. Elizabeth is so sweet and kind; it’s like talking to a friend (who happens to have amazing sleep advice) and she is always super quick to respond to texts/emails. My husband and I are so thankful to have found her and I highly recommend her to everyone with children.
Two weeks ago, we were frustrated, exhausted, and feeling very much defeated by our strong-willed three year old. Since moving to her big girl bed, we dreaded nighttime and every power struggle and meltdown (from all of us) that came with it. Abby had previously helped us with our baby boy when he was four months old and I reached out to her for some advice. I was shocked by night 3 when our girl really got excited about her new routine. It’s only gotten better since then and I’m so thankful to Abby for giving us our sleep again!
Just within one week we saw a huge improvement!! Ada had been sleeping in our bed every night after we took her home, but after our initial call 2 weeks ago she has slept in her crib every night since then!! We put your advice into practice on day one and it has only gotten easier. The other night, Ada only woke up once to feed and slept the entire night. Not only, are we ALL getting more sleep, but now I have time in the evening to read, reflect, and/or just relax!! Which honestly, I can tell makes a huge difference in my parenting as I feel I can be a better mother to my girls because I am better able to take care of myself. I am now able to be more present with my girls during the day, because I feel confident in their sleeping schedules which I didn't before our initial call. Starting quiet time with my older daughter and not forcing her naps, has also worked wonders for us, as now we have both girls in bed by 7 pm! Thank you so much, I am so grateful we took this step, as it's hard to imagine if we kept on doing the same old thing. One thing I appreciated very much, is that I didn't feel judged and felt completely open to ask and tell you anything regarding our sleeping situation, that was a huge relief. And your encouragement/advice those first few days were a life saver! We are so grateful that we came across you and took the step to better our sleep and overall family dynamics.
Elizabeth was our knight in shining armour! We went from refusing to nap or sleep in the crib, to taking 2+ hour naps and sleeping soundfully from 7p-7a every single day, all in the crib! She gave me the tools & support necessary to help my baby create healthy sleeping habits. We are forever grateful!
When I contacted Elizabeth, I was at my wits end. My daughter was nearly 3 months old and was wanting to be held 24/7. The only way any of us could get any sleep was by having my daughter sleep on me. I couldn't do anything without holding her and if I put her down, she would scream bloody murder. After contacting Elizabeth, she was able to help me get my baby onto a sleep schedule that worked for all of us. Within a short period of time, my baby was sleeping 12 hours every night in her own space and taking naps throughout the day. My baby is 6 months old now and everyone always comments on what a happy and healthy baby she is. We've come a long way from the screaming crying infant who always wanted to be held and I owe that to Elizabeth!
