WHO I WORK WITH
I work with amazing dedicated parents who love their children fiercely just like you.
The only problem is that it’s often taking hours to get their little one to sleep
only to have him or her wake up a few hours later
and having to start the process all over again, naps are too short and sporadic.
No one in the family is getting the sleep that they need to be happy and healthy.
Mom and Dad are tired, frustrated and cranky.
Everyone is fighting and no one has the time to recharge.
Together we will teach your child healthy sleep skills so they go to bed happily,
sleep through the night and nap like a champ!
You’ll finally have your evenings back and get that much needed Me time!!

SLEEP IS POSSIBLE!
How can a sleep consultant help my child sleep?
Most parents tell me they didn’t know it was possible:
- to read your child a story,
- hug and kiss them night-night,
- put them in their crib/bed,
- walk out and close the door and not have to return until morning!
BUT IT IS POSSIBLE!
I can tell you that having little ones that sleep well is literally life changing for your family.
The families I work with tell me that it literally gave them their sanity back,
time for themselves and quality time with their children in a much calmer and balanced household. Plus their only regret is not seeking help sooner!
Everyone has more fun when they are sleeping well!

My Background
I have always had a passion for working with children and families.
Prior to starting my career as a Pediatric Sleep Consultant, I worked in school settings as well as provided in-home support and programming for both families and children with special needs.
This led to more experiences working with families and children within Victim Services with the RCMP as well as a full-time family support worker; providing critical attention to families experiencing crisis; then supporting families on government funding to attend post-secondary programs.
It gives me tremendous joy to be able to support families and children in whatever way they need at the time we work together.
I completed my Educational Assistant Certification at Grant MacEwan University in Edmonton. I then went on to complete my Bachelor of Arts Degree, with a focus in Psychology at Concordia University of Edmonton.
I trained under the direct mentorship of Dana Obleman, world renowned child sleep expert and creator of the Sleep Sense™ program.
This is a highly unique opportunity providing comprehensive training and mentoring, which has given me the very best tools and knowledge available to help get your little one sleeping through the night and napping like a champ!
As an active member of the Association of Professional Sleep Consultants; I work with one of the largest networks of professional sleep consultants in the world. Who, together have worked with thousands of clients and have experience in almost every conceivable sleep-related challenge parents face.
We collaborate on a daily basis, offering insight and expertise on each others’ clients, and our success rate is second to none.
Being an active member of the International Association of Professional Sleep Consultants and a Certified Sleep Sense™ Consultant I participate in monthly continuing education that allows me to stay current in all things sleep. As well as having access to all the latest sleep science and recommendations.
I have also completed the Infant Mental Health Program offered through the SickKids Hospital of Toronto, Canada.
This has given me additional insight into babies brain development, attachments, and reassurance from a scientific perspective that teaching your little one to sleep well independently is absolutely not harmful to their mental health or development.
The Sleep Sense method has successfully helped over 57,000 clients worldwide with their little one’s sleep troubles and I have used this method with my own children.

Why I became a Sleep Consultant
You see, I get what you’re going through!
I am the mom of two amazing little boys who did not come pre-programmed with the skills to sleep well independently.
This is what led me to become a Certified Sleep Consultant & the founder of To The Moon and Back Sleep Consulting.
Like most first time parents we were not fully prepared for what having a new baby does to your ability to sleep. Many parents don’t realize that babies are either born with great sleep skills or they are NOT!
Neither of my precious babies were born with the natural instincts to sleep well.
And like everyone does in those first few months we did whatever we could to get our little men to sleep.
Neither of them would sleep unless they were being held, day and night. They also woke every 1.5-2 hours all day and all night to eat for the first 6-9 months. So naturally before long they turned into rocking, cuddling, nursing, shhing, singing to sleep babies who screamed every time you put them down in their bassinet or crib.
Well, a few months turned into way too many months and I was still in the same horrible sleep deprived state, as were my boys; with little hope.
THE GOOD NEWS!!
I finally found a solution; something that made sense to me and I was 100% comfortable doing with my boys and you can too.
I now have two little boys that go to bed with zero protest or shenanigans and sleep for 12-13 hours at night, with ZERO wake-ups.

WHY IT ALL BEGAN
Through my own journey of struggling with both of my sons lack of sleep skills, I realized this was it!!
I wanted to be able to get back into helping children and families, while still being at home with my boys.
I was going to become a certified sleep consultant and change the world one sleeping little moonbug at a time!!

SLEEP PHILOSOPHYI chose to receive my sleep consultant training from the best in the business because the methods worked for me personally and they followed along with my own beliefs. The Sleep Sense Method® was created out of a strong belief that healthy sleep habits make for healthy children. A well-rested child is curious, energetic, happy, playful, and eager to learn.
When parents entrust me as their child’s sleep guide, either through one-on-one consultations or seminars, they are placing a great deal of trust in me, and I want to let you know that I take this responsibility very seriously. While most books and programs dealing with child sleep issues take philosophical stands (based largely around the issue of “crying it out”, I believe that your child’s sleep is more important than my personal views on this subject. That’s why the Sleep Sense Method places so much emphasis on accommodating different parenting styles. The bottom line is that you, as a parent, need to be comfortable with your new sleep plan in order for it to work for your child. WILL YOU HAVE MY CHILD "CRY IT OUT?"This is a common question. Crying is your child’s way of protesting change, and you can expect that making changes to their sleep habits will result in some protest. That’s why I’m always sure to tell parents that my program will most likely involve at least some amount of protest on the child’s part.
However, I will never ask you to leave your child to cry alone, nor will I ask you to ignore their cries. The reason that the Sleep Sense Method is so effective is that it lets you develop a plan that you feel comfortable with, based on what you know about your child. |
