As parents we can bring our children to the threshold of sleep and our children are capable of crossing that threshold alone and with ease. I teach simple techniques that can help make naptime and bedtime a peaceful part of your daily routine. It can truly be a time that the whole family can look forward to and count on.
Let me be clear. My program is not a cry it out approach. Nor does it prescribe one solution for every family. I work with each family to tailor a plan that fits the family’s abilities, and goals.

Complete Sleep Solution $350
The Complete Sleep Solution is a highly successful process that teaches parents how to help their infants, toddlers and young children make the transition to consistent, healthy sleep. The plan begins with a parent receiving and completing my custom questionnaire; your answers provide me with the information I need to begin to help your family. The questions are extensive. But the high level of detail is vital to the formation of my initial assessment of the issues facing both parent and child. This analysis is followed quickly by a telephone consultation lasting up to 60 minutes. After the conversation I refine my assessment of the issues and develop a solution tailored to your circumstances, your personality, and your goals. This step-by-step plan addresses both night sleep and naps. The printable document typically arrives via email within two days of our conversation. It is important to note that my solution is not a “cry it out approach.” Still, some crying is to be expected. The plan is accompanied by articles and research whose purpose is to deepen your understanding of my methods and inspire confidence in the effectiveness of the changes they will make. We agree on a date for you to begin the solution. Once you begin I provide you with personal, telephone support – up to five calls are included in this package. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of support calls. One reason is that they give me a chance to get fresh information about a child’s response to change. Another reason is that I can help the parent during a transition which, while brief, is often stressful. I cannot recall a parent who was not thrilled with the results of this combination of a plan and support.
Core Sleep Plan $250
The Core Sleep Plan is very similar to the more comprehensive plan. The plan begins with the same custom questionnaire and the same initial assessment of the sleep issues facing the family. The analysis is followed by a telephone consultation, which can run up to 60 minutes. I then assess the situation and email a customized, step-by-step plan that will help you guide your child to sleep through the night and take regular naps. The email includes the articles and research that support our shared goal. The only difference between this plan and the Complete Sleep Solution is the telephone support. Make no mistake. Experience has taught me that support works. Every client who had telephone support has said that is was essential to their success. But for those who cannot afford the complete plan I am offering the same analysis for a lower price, with the option to purchase support one session at a time.
Getting Off To The Right Start $400
The complete solution for newborn babies 3-5 months
This sleep program makes a wonderful shower gift and will get your family on the path to YEARS of peaceful and dependable sleep. Getting Off To The Right Start is the same as the
Complete Sleep Solution yet offers more comprehensive information to fully prepare parents for the upcoming stages of development that can interrupt a child's sleep. It also offers more in the area of personal telephone support - up to seven calls are included in this package.
Telephone Support $40 per 35-minute session
My passion is to instill parents with confidence that their child can develop a sleep routine. I love showing people that they are capable of guiding the change and that they can cope with any and all problems during the child’s transition to sound sleep. Parents begin to build this confidence during the telephone consultation. The great majority of parents have found that three to five support sessions made for faster success and less stress. For parents who choose the Complete Sleep Solution and want more support I offer extra sessions. For parents who choose the Core Sleep Plan I offer support one session at a time. These 35-minute sessions are available only to parents who have committed to a Consultation or one of my plans.
Consultations $95 per one hour session
I am entirely open to the reality that not everyone needs one of my plans in order to nurture their child to sounder sleep. And many parents are unsure whether they need one of my plans. Some seek assurance that they are on the right track to helping their child develop good sleep habits. Others want nothing more than to tweak their current approach. Still, I want to help. Which is why I offer a one-hour telephone consultation. These focused sessions begin with the parent identifying the issue they wish to address. I analyze the information, probe for other problems, and provide a plan of action. The solution is verbal, not written.
And while additional half-hour consultations are always available. Please note that the fee cannot be applied to either the Complete Sleep Solution or the Core Sleep Plan.
