Client Testimonials:
"Heather is a godsend! She came to help me and my newborn get through some of the early postpartum days. She is warm, knowledgeable, comforting, and helpful in so many ways. There were many things I needed that she was able to assist with - breastfeeding support, questions about PT resources, quick meal tips, cleaning the house, getting my baby to sleep and frankly just a break from holding the baby. Heather helped me with all these things and allowed me to get some much needed rest. I really appreciated her empathetic and kind approach. Any new parent would benefit from her support." ~ Mandy S.

Client Testimonials:
"We reached out to Michelle after our previously good-sleeping 3 year old son stopped sleeping through the night. We tried everything--changing his nap schedule, nap length, and bedtime; we changed his sleep environment by adding nightlights, taking away lights, and changing his bed; we tried giving him melatonin, magnesium, and Benadryl; we even tried bribing him--nothing worked! After 5 months, we were desperate. Our pediatrician recommended we talk to Michelle, and I'm so glad we did! She provided us with a very clear plan to follow and was so supportive along the way. She also provided a very caring and judgment-free environment. Our son started sleeping through the night within a week after starting with Michelle, and as an added bonus, he started putting himself to sleep as well! We are so thankful for Michelle and highly recommend her!" ~Kate B.
"When we had our baby we decided we wanted to co-sleep. While this was so sweet we quickly learned it made everything much harder. At 2 weeks our sleepy daughter started spending more time awake and quickly refused to be put down for naps. We found ourselves 100% contact-napping. There was no hope of giving up a feeding at night because as soon as my husband put her in our bed she woke up and would only go back to sleep nursing. We tried everything! We tried putting her down drowsy, using a swing, so many methods for putting her down while she was asleep. When Poppy was 11 weeks old we decided we needed help. I talked with Michelle a few times and her warm, supportive personality ensured me that this assistance was important. Night 1 was rough, Poppy ended up in our bed. The next day we called Michelle and she helped us tweak our plan. Night 3 she slept all night in her crib and woke up 4 times. Night 4 she woke up twice. A week after we started we were having one night wake up. We especially loved Michelle’s caring support and encouragement, as well as the tweaks and suggestions she made along the way. I would 100% recommend your family working with Michelle!”
You were a GODSEND and I am SO grateful we found you and decided to work with you!"
