What people say ABOUT Erin

Our 4.5-year-old daughter has been going to sleep earlier and staying asleep longer (through the night). If she wakes up overnight she is not disturbing us but getting back to sleep on her own. We have all been getting more sleep and her behavior has improved generally, with fewer tantrums. Erin was very easy to talk to about difficult topics. It never felt like she was judging our parenting but just being supportive so we could succeed. Improving our sleep has improved our parenting and stress levels as well. Erin has a great program that sets children and adults up to succeed. Erin is warm and a mom herself so she gets what people are going through, trying to do their best for their children and families. I was hesitant about engaging a sleep counselor for my daughter because her behavior is very strong-willed and I didn't want to induce more battles. But with Erin, we set up many positive reinforcements and we ended up not having to use negative tactics with her. She has developed better sleep patterns as a result of our investment. She is starting school in the fall and I feel more confident that she will have the rest she needs to succeed and we have the sanity we need to parent her!

We were hesitant about hiring a Sleep Consultant due to the financial commitment. We knew it was an investment and wanted to take the time to discuss it. After working with Erin I would tell anyone who is thinking about it to just do it! Erin is very knowledgeable and reliable. She knows what she is talking about and always answered my questions to the best of her ability, including examples. Being able to ask questions as they came up, and get the answers we needed was one of the best things about working with Erin! My little guy now sleeps 13+ hours a night without needing a feed, and can soothe himself back to sleep! I am sleeping better now, and I actually have time to do the things that I want to do with my husband in the evenings, and Thomas is just an overall happier baby! I have, and will continue to recommend Erin to other Moms who are struggling with their kiddos sleep.

We thought our son would "grow out" of his bad sleeping habits. He was over 2.5 yrs and we couldn't do it anymore, and with a new baby we had to get help because what we were doing was obviously not working. After 3 weeks of training, he sleeps in his own room, and sleeps for the whole night. Thank goodness! We have our sanity back! Erin really know what she is doing. The best "Sleep Fairy".

Let me just start by saying: it’s worth every penny. We struggled with my daughters inability to sleep for 3 years. We felt like we had tried everything possible and had lost hope. Contacting a sleep consultant was my very last shot and I wish I had done it sooner, way sooner. From my initial conversation with Erin, I felt connected to her and that she completely understood what we were going through, there was finally some hope. She very clearly set out what was expected of us as a family to make our daughters sleep successful and we still follow it to a T almost a year later. She had regular communication with me by texts and phone calls, she voice chatted my daughter which got her to “buy in” to the whole new routine. It wasn’t just a list of “to do’s” and then it was on us, it was weeks of follow-ups and creating a plan just for us and adjusting it on the way as needed. I couldn’t recommend Erin enough and appreciate her so much for helping me get my life and sanity back on track. I can now complete a day without an entire pot of coffee and a short fuse.

Our 6-month-old baby was waking every 2-3 hours throughout the night and required comforting or a feeding to go back to sleep. During the day he would only nap if I held him. This became very tiring and nothing we tried seemed to be making things better. After much thought, we decided to invest in a sleep consultant. As of night 3 of the plan our baby slept through the night, 11 hours, without waking once. We were shocked and assumed this was a fluke until the next night and then the next. He has continued to sleep 10-12 hours straight through the night since night 3 and everyone is feeling much better rested. Naps were a little trickier but Erin stuck with us and we tried a few different things and our baby is officially going down in the crib for three naps every day which last anywhere from 30 min to 3 hours. We feel confident with the tools we have been given to handle any changes that occur as our baby grows and changes. Our only complaint is that we didn't invest in this sooner. In 3 short weeks, our sleep lives have changed completely! Thank you again for all your hard work and for putting your trust in me along this part of Felix's sleep journey!

Our experience with Erin has been nothing but excellent! We were at the point of exhaustion and frustration and didn't know where to turn. I found Erin's website and read her story about having been at the same point we were at and thought I might as well give it a try. It was so easy to talk to Erin about anything, it was easy to ask questions and I liked that we brainstormed together to come up with a solution that worked for our family. Henry sleeps through the night with no fussing and no soother. Our whole family is more rested, and it's also given us the confidence as parents to say no we can't do this, or we can't stay long because we need to get Henry to bed. We know how important it is that they get the sleep that they need, whatever the age. I would recommend Erin because she is awesome and to anyone that needs that extra support or accountability to help their wee ones get the sleep they need! Trust the process and that you get what you put in. It has made a night and day difference in our son and the rest of our family! Our wee one sleeps through the night with no fussing or soother and wakes up smiling and laughing, and that's priceless! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, we honestly were at our wits end and you've completely turned it around 🙂
