Sound Support for Learning & Encouraging Baby Sleep

We reached out to Kelsey when our daughter was six weeks old, hoping we could encourage her to feel comfortable sleeping in her bassinet at night. Kelsey helped us build that muscle by filling in holes in our understanding about baby sleep and encouraging us to look at our daughter’s whole day differently. She pointed out opportunities for tweaks to the sleep routine we already had down to the smallest detail, while sharing new techniques, too. She was also, very helpfully, willing to jump into our baby tracking app to follow along with our day to day experiences. She even left us with tips and recommendations looking ahead. We’re grateful to have had Kelsey’s support during the super stressful and confusing time of learning baby sleep, and would definitely work with her again!

Kelsey was definitely a life saver! I had my baby during covid without any help whatsoever. She has guided me through the most difficult thing for me that was sleep training my baby. I don’t think I would have been able to do it on my own as much as I read the techniques on books, to put into practice is something else. Kelsey has also helped me with breastfeeding, cooking, running some errands and watching the baby for me so I could rest for a bit. She also knows a lot about stimulating the baby to talk and to interact, and what are the skills that babies develop throughout the weeks. She knows baby products very well and can refer them so you don’t over buy. She was always there to hear me venting about the challenges of becoming a new mom and has reassured me that I was doing a good job. Kelsey has a lot of experience with babies and I am sure that any family that hires her will be very happy with her knowledge and professional attitude.

Kelsey was fantastic to work with! She supported our family during a critical time – after the birth of our second son. She helped prepare post-partum specific meals which were helpful for healing, she spent a lot of time with our older child especially during the time I was recovering, and she helped both my husband and me fit in either a nap or time for ourselves during the day. One of my favorite things about Kelsey is her passion for child rearing. She truly believes that the success of the individual starts with family and the bond between parent and child. She has a natural way with children and a calm demeanor, which make her amazing to work with. I highly recommend her as a post partum doula!

Kelsey is an amazing resource!!

I found out about Kelsey through a colleague of mine who raved how much she helped her family. Knowing that I was going back to work in a few weeks, I contacted Kelsey when my son turned eight weeks old. I knew we needed to figure out a schedule where he was able to sleep a majority of the day without a contact nap, plus try and get him some better overnight sleep so this working mama wouldn’t be a zombie! I completed Kelsey‘s assessment, and was super appreciative that she put together a plan that was most comfortable for all of us. Even after we put the plan in place, Kelsey was there to help guide us with any questions or concerns we might have on implementing it. We are going on two weeks later, and my son is thriving! He’s learned the foundation on how to put himself down to sleep for naptime, plus we are getting 6 to 7 hour stretches overnight! I could not be more appreciative or grateful for her assistance!

A Sanity Saver!

There are not enough amazing things to say about Kelsey and how she’s helped our family! I started working with Kelsey when my fella was just shy of 10 weeks old and all of his naps had gone way downhill. He’d only sleep if he was being held and my sanity was quickly dwindling. Within one session, Kelsey listened to what was happening and created a plan just for our family, no one size fits all model here. Kelsey genuinely cares about you, your baby, and your sleep goals and will help you get there! From the first night, Sam’s sleep started to get better, and in time, his naps got so much better too. It’s been such a game-changer and we now have such a good sleeper thanks to Kelsey!
