Here's what a few of my clients have had to say:
"My wife and I had no answers and we were at our wits end. Our 5-month old son had regressed to the point where he wouldn’t sleep for more than an hour at a time before waking up crying. Most nights, we had to sleep with him in our arms. Jessica immediately identified the issue as a sleep association problem and worked on a gentle plan to help us break him of this pattern. My wife and I were not comfortable with just letting him cry it out, so she was very patient with us and told us exactly what to expect. She followed up with us on a regular basis and responded to each of our calls and emails in an extremely timely manner. As a parent herself, she understood exactly what we were going through. Our son showed incredible improvement and he is now sleeping through the night and napping on a consistent basis. We are so happy we found her and we absolutely recommend her!
- Steve and Katie, parents of 5 month-old Spencer
“We honestly didn’t think it was possible, but Jessica helped transform our night owl into a champion sleeper. Her approach combines strategy and science with kindness. As parents, we did not feel guilty about the sleep training, and, even better, we’ve noticed that our well-rested child is a much happier person as a result. Needless to say, we are happier too! Thank you, Jessica.”
- Abby and Ross, parents of Gwendolyn, 22 months
“We can enthusiastically say that working with Jessica was one of the best decisions we made as new parents! We were literally at our wits’ end trying to get our little girl to sleep at night, often rocking her in our arms for over an hour only to have her wail the minute she was put down. With Jessica’s wise and insightful guidance, we were able to create a much better pattern for both our little angel and her very tired parents! Now we have a happy, healthy and well-rested little girl (and family)!”
- Samantha, mother of Julia, 6 months
“As first time parents, my husband and I were pretty lost as to how to help our son sleep through the night. We'd read books, articles and studies and followed the advice of various sleep experts, all to no avail. Four months into parenthood we were sleep-deprived and frustrated at our continued failure and our son's lack of quality sleep. Enter Jessica! I routinely tell anyone who'll listen (family, friends, colleagues, clients and strangers alike) that she has been a godsend to my little family. She met with us and seven days later our son was sleeping through the night! The story doesn't end there. The holidays and travel threw our son off his sleep track. Foolishly, we tried our own methods for three weeks. Jessica had emailed me to check in. I told her what had been happening and she quickly provided guidance. Of course, we used Jessica's methods and in two nights, our sweet boy was back to sleeping through the night again! Relatives who were skeptical of the concept of a "sleep coach" are converted and we routinely refer to Jessica as our favorite miracle worker. Paying her fee was literally the best money we have ever spent. Her expertise is truly priceless. We are so grateful to her and will continue to seek her guidance and sleep well because of it.”
- Mana and Rich, parents of Cyrus, 5 months
"We decided it was time to move our 4.5 month old son from the swing for naps - and our bed at night - to his crib. We also wanted to decrease the multiple night wakings... mom's a light sleeper and was exhausted from constantly broken night sleep . In just a few weeks, he was in his crib for naps and nighttime, sleeping through the night (YAY!). Jessica was so supportive, answered all our questions, and was the perfect mix of gentle yet encouraging. We enthusiastically recommend her to all of our tired parent friends!"
- Briana & Peter, parents of Toby, 7 months
“It was such a relief to find someone like Jessica who had the knowledge and tools to help us coach our child to sleep through the night. We truly didn't think it was possible, especially with an older infant that had medical issues plus deeply engrained sleep habits. We were pleasantly surprised that not only were we able to break her sleep crutches and teach her to sleep through the night, but it took only 2 weeks!”
- Olivia, mother of Evora, 16 months
“We never thought we would utilize a sleep coach, but our experience with Jessica was amazing, much needed and well worth it. She gave us the confidence and the tools and techniques to help our daughter sleep better, and was always there when we needed gentle reminders, a sympathetic ear, or a boost of encouragement. We loved how Jessica really worked with us to find out what was best for our family and our child, not trying to prescribe a ‘one size fits all’ solution. We couldn't have progressed as far as we have with our daughter's sleep without Jessica's help!”
- Gale, mother of Inez, 15 months
“Jessica invested a huge amount of time to get to know our baby's particular situation -- by pouring over our sleep log and asking us lots of questions. She helped us wade through the million factors that can affect sleep and focus in on the few changes that would really make a difference for our baby. She also did a great job making us feel good about what we were doing right!”
- Sarah, mother of Stella, 4.5 months
“This weekend when I put her down completely awake she put herself to sleep-VICTORY. She is a much happier and playful baby now that she is getting 12 hours of sleep at night and two good naps during the day. Thank you for the help. Everything we talked about made perfect sense, but we never would have figured it out without your help.”
- Melissa, mother of Maggie, 7 months
“Jessica really took the time to understand our unique situation. She did not use a cookie cutter approach; rather, she worked with us to develop a customized plan to meet our daughter's (and our) needs. Most of the training really needed to be done on Mom and Dad! And once we embraced the process and realized we were ready to proceed, Jessica was there to give us all the guidance and support we needed. She also encouraged
us to follow-through on ENT appointments to check our daughter's adenoids and her gut instinct was right and our daughter does have "extremely enlarged adenoids" which were also contributing to her sleep disturbances. Even with the enlarged adenoids, we were able to successfully sleep train our daughter within 3 nights and also trained her on naps at the same time. I really appreciate all that Jessica has done to ensure that my daughter is a well-rested and happy child. Thank You!”
- Heather, mother of Zoey, 18 months
“After a year of co-sleeping and nearly hourly wakings to nurse my baby, I was exhausted and ready to get a good night's sleep. Unwilling to allow my baby to cry-it-out, I sought out a gentle method of sleep training that minimized tears and incorporated loving gestures. Jessica spoke with me at length about the sleep habits of my busy family of five and the details of my baby's sleep patterns. She helped me develop a sleep plan with which I was completely comfortable and was available for questions throughout the process. Most importantly, Jessica helped me get my baby to sleep through the night in a crib in under a week. Like any good coach, Jessica supported me every step of the way. She helped me work through the tough issues and develop solutions to problems that I would not have thought of had I only read the book. I wish I had contacted Jessica months earlier!”
- Jamie, mother of Sarah, 12 months
“OMG the transformation has been unbelievable. Bedtime is now one of the most enjoyable, bonding and snugly part of our day. Thank you, we could not have done it without you!”
- Talah, mother of Tamara, 15 months
“Jessica is a wonderful sleep coach. She has been there from the beginning with us and has supported us wonderfully. I am particularly pleased by the fact that she draws from her personal experience and is able to relate and convey the material in manner that is genuine and realistic. Her flexibility and ability to work with you based upon a schedule is also another wonderful aspect of working with her. Overall I am very pleased with my son’s progress and have Jessica to thank for all her great advice and help.”
- Gabby, mother of Cyrus, 14 months
