Sleep Coach/Specialist
Gentle Sleep Coaching refers to an approach developed by Kim West, LCSW-C (a.k.a. “T​he Sleep Ladyâ€). The Gentle Approach involves gathering information about you, your baby, and your family. It takes into account the baby’s development, temperament, and feeding, as well as parents’ goals, philosophy, and needs to devise a plan for improving sleep that does not involve leaving the baby alone to cry.
This is not about forcing you or your baby into a pre-designed, crying-based program. We work together to come up with a plan that you feel good about. (Keywords: Baby, Father, Infant, Mental Health, Mother, Postpartum, Support, )
Audience: Families with baby 6+ months old (also some support for younger)
