Confessions of a Mom who coached her baby to sleep through the night.
Kelly says: “Confession: We got more sleep during sleep coaching. It’s true. Our sweet baby girl had become quite accustomed to her sleep crutches.

4 months old and sleep is falling apart?
Andrea Strang from KinderSleep described it perfectly. She says, “This is a very exciting time in a baby’s life. The 4-month milestone marks on of the most pronounce developmental periods.

I wanted to send you a quick message about Fletcher’s progress since you started helping us in October.
