I’m so happy you have made your way over here! It is my goal to help educate parents just like you! I have made it my mission to provide sleep education and to help you and your little one sleep well. I’ve been in the darkness of sleep deprivation, and know how hard it is to function on so little sleep. As a now rested mom, I would LOVE to help you sleep again. It’s just a matter of when!
