Koa - 21 months

"I was at my wits end with Koa’s sleep, she was waking up for hours each night wanting to party! I was worried that sleep training her would be so difficult and that my heart wouldn’t be able to handle her crying herself to sleep. 

But I was so wrong, she took so well to the sleep plan and while she did protest a bit for the first few nights, she quickly learned the routine and was sleeping through the night by night 5! 

I am so thankful for Erin’s help and feel confident that Koa is now getting the sleep she needs…. As am I! "

​Martina - ​6 Months

"I knew this process would be hard as I had little support elsewhere.  No one in my family (aside from my husband) thought it was important, and I often got the comment from them "oh baby will learn to sleep eventually" or scoffing at the idea of me hiring a consultant for sleep.  

But through the process, Erin's support system and hand-holding was great!   We weren't sure if the cost and time commitment required when working with a sleep consultant would be worth it or wanting to deviate from certain strategies that we felt were working well. 

But since working with Erin, Martina is now sleeping through the night and is no longer night feeding.  I have been able to have more than 3 hours of consecutive sleep at a time!  I feel more normal!  I would recommend Erin to anyone who has difficulty or wants to have their child sleep better."

Evelyn - 4 Months​

"​We were hesitant about working with a Sleep Consultant as we weren't prepared to do extinction [not a method utilized by To The Moon and Back Sleep Consulting], and we were hesitant about the cost. 

Erin took the time to educate us on sleep and we now have an understanding of the "why's" e.g., why nursing to sleep is bad, why it's important to get her on a schedule, etc.   We loved the voicemails, and follow up phone calls!

After our time with Erin Evelyn now has fewer night awakenings, and all of her sleep is done in the crib!  We now have an amazing nap and bedtime routine.

I would 100% recommend partnering with Erin and To The Moon and Back Sleep Consulting to anyone who is struggling with their little ones sleep.  She knows a lot about sleep, and she won't quit until you see results!

We really appreciate everything Erin taught us and all of the extra support from Erin.   She gave us the confidence to stick with it, and we are so grateful for that!"

Julia - 8 Weeks ​to 3.5 Months

"When my husband and I welcomed our second child home from the hospital, we were definitely naive to the fact that coping with a newborn and 1 ½ year old would be tough! Even more naive were we to think that our newborn would ‘go with the flow’ and we could carry on our routine as usual.

Fast forward 8 weeks and we were in a state of chaos and desperation.  I was sleeping in the basement with our newborn so the rest of the household wouldn’t hear her screaming. However, neither of us was actually sleeping. Instead, we were trying every trick in the book to shush, rock, sway, bounce, and sing our little one to sleep. Once I managed to finally put her down, I’d pray to whoever was listening that she wouldn’t wake as I ninja snuck out of the room. When those tactics didn’t work, my husband or I would pack her up in the car seat and drive endless hours (at all times of the day and night) as she would at least sleep in the car. We found our baby would go 8 hours or more without sleeping and then would scream and fight every attempt we’d make to put her down. We were both utterly exhausted and I was in tears the majority of the day. Throw in a frustrated toddler and you have a recipe for disaster.

This is when I called Erin (who my sister recommended), albeit skeptical that she could help us, I was willing to give it a try.

I will never forget our first phone call/consult. Erin was so patient as I babbled on about our situation and she really provided me with a sense of comfort and hope.

Unfortunately our situation was made more difficult by having a tongue tied baby and she worked with us as we implemented our sleep plan slowly in collaboration with baby’s tongue tie surgery. What I came to learn through Erin’s help was that our baby was severely over tired and in fact couldn’t ‘go with the flow’ as we presumed.  That, coupled with her inability to effectively eat, was a huge challenge.

Fortunately, Erin’s sleep plan was very supportive and easy to follow. While it definitely involved a change in the way we approached our daily routine, we now have a 4 month old who I put down for naps fully awake, who naps 2+ hours 3 times a day and 9-10 hours straight at night. She has learned to self soothe and doesn’t rely on any ‘props’ to fall asleep.

Erin’s support throughout the process was instrumental in making me feel confident that I could stick to her recommendations and her follow-up was thorough and easy to understand.

​Our home is finally a happy place now!!"

"I'm a single parent with a little girl that would take 20-40 min naps if I was lucky and wake 4-5 times in the night. It was getting really hard on both of us. 
​
Then I found Erin, and she changed our lives. We are both way more rested now, and my daughter is taking 1.15-2 hour naps and sleeping through the night roughly 11-12 hours. 

Erin is down to earth. There was no high expectation that I would have her in the crib every time I was supposed to. Erin answered all my questions truthfully there is no sugar coating, and she explained the whys really well. 

This takes time, problems are not fixed in one night and its a rollercoaster, but Erin is extremely supportive. 

This has been a challenging but amazing experience, and I feel we now both have the skills to get through any sleep challenges that come our way. 

I feel like a whole new parent being rested and being able to be more active with my daughter during the day."

-Danielle L.

Capri - 2.5 years

"I was worried that it wasn’t going to work or we wouldn’t stick to the routine.
But now she goes to bed independently and has taught herself to fall asleep on her own when she wakes up in the night. No bedtime battles.

I liked that you gave us different strategies when issues came up with Capri. Figuring out what worked best for Capri.

Eric and I have more "US" time. Night times aren’t so stressful anymore, and we are all getting a good night's sleep!

You give the parents a different perspective and suggestions that they might not think of."

- Brandace B. 

Jordon - Age 9

"I wasn't sure it was going to work as Jordan is older, and we thought there might have been an anxiety component.

He is sleeping through the night!! We reached out as a last-ditch effort and are very happy with the result. It took some hard work and dedication, but we are so glad that we saw it through. As expected, he does revert on occasion, but it is short-lived.

I appreciated the regular communication. You were easy to talk to, reliable and provided much-needed encouragement, which helped to keep us on track - it's easy to second guess oneself when in the thick of it!

We are now better rested and able to enjoy more time together as a family. The process itself has benefited us in other areas of our lives as well. It has taught us the value and importance of setting clear expectations, being firm and carrying through with consequences.

I would gladly recommend you to anyone who is having sleep problems with their children.

The most important thing that people should know about working with you is that it is well worth the cost!"

- Melanie F.

Halle - 15 months

"Most of my hesitation was that the sleep consultant we picked to hire wouldn't understand Halle's ways or routine and give us a plan to follow that was generic for every kid.

We have finally slept at night! From 5 plus wake-ups, hours of rocking and 4 plus bottles at night to no more rocking to sleep for hours on end throughout the night, no more bottles, finally!

We can put her to bed and not guess how long and how many times she will wake. Since we've taken away the bottle, she eats sooo much better also!

I like that you made a plan for us based on HALLE. you listened to what we were doing with her prior to meeting with you and told us what we needed to cut out and what we needed to do to make some serious changes.

I was scared to death at first cause we'd taken away all her old coping mechanisms. However, I had no clue how we were going to take away bottles or if we would ever sleep again. So I am extremely thankful to check both those off the list.

She eats so much more and so much better since you told us to cut all bottles.
We were literally going crazy. Hopeless really. We hadn't slept more than 3 hours at a time in the last 15 months. no joke, we were going crazy. My husband heard about you; when I heard the price I thought NO WAY! He said to me " Our marriage is worth more than any money we could pay" and he was so right.

We were barely getting through the days and were absolutely miserable until we finally found a schedule for her and us that has now given us a bit of hope and can finally catch our breath again.

Also, more importantly; HALLE was exhausted. She wasn't sleeping properly so she was probably not feeling great at all, either!! She is much happier during the day since sleeping better at night.

I've already recommended you to many people in a Facebook group I'm in that is all about sleep training. really, anyone with a baby/toddler that needs help should reach out to you.

I cannot express how grateful I am to have found Erin. We were completely at our wits' end and hadn't slept in over 15 months. We really were hopeless until we found Erin and this program. Not only is Halle sleeping and eating better, but our entire household is so much happier!

Erin is extremely knowledgable, was very patient with us and was easy to work with. I didn't believe this could ever be us, but Erin made it happen! Totally worth it, and will do it again for the next kid. "

- Amy O.

Lily - 22 Months 

"I think for me, the hesitation to hire a sleep consultant was more thinking that if I asked for help, it meant that I failed at helping my daughter on my own.

Lily sleeps so much better at night. No more nighttime feeds. She naps on her own now. She's so much happier and eating more. We have a better schedule now. Plus, I can actually get chores done when Lily Is napping.

Erin is extremely kind and patient. I loved how passionate she is about helping families get better sleep!

Erin is easy to talk to and understanding. Very helpful and relatable.

I would recommend Erin to anyone I came across who expressed needing help with sleep training."

- Kristina R.

Astrid - 5 Months

"The internet is full of parents who have opinions on what makes a successful sleeping baby and nursery setup, but they completely contradict one another.
​
It is frustrating, and when you're in the thick of this chaos, you will try everything, which means nothing works.

We put ourselves through so much trying to solve our little girl's sleep issues and just assumed it was the four-month sleep regression.

After weeks of her only napping for 10-30 minutes, waking up screaming after 30 minutes at bedtime, needing to feed to sleep, and having complete meltdowns for nap and sleep time, we decided to bring in a professional.

It was so relieving to have a professional weed out the misinformation and set us up with clear guides for us as parents to follow.

In one night, our daughter stopped needing night feeds and, within just a couple of nights, slept through the night (meaning, she was able to put herself back to sleep).

In a few days, she was getting better, fuller naps during the day. Honestly, after the first week, we just t had situation-specific questions we needed guidance for; otherwise, our baby was a sleeping superstar at just five months old!

When I have told family and friends we hired a sleep consultant, many didn't know it was an option. Those who have littles are now considering this option if their little needs that helping hand.

Don't be afraid to get help. It may seem like something you as the parent should just be able to solve, but you don't need to do this alone.

Give yourself the relief and let someone else guide you."

​Grayson - 7 Months
​Before hiring a sleep consultant, I was hesitant about the cost and leaving my son to cry.
 
But I haven’t had to picked him up through the night since we started working with Erin. He has had nights where he’s cried but it only happens once in a while.
 
Erin is so down to earth! She made me feel very comfortable in talking about my concerns.
 
I now know it’s OK to let him cry a little! And I feel like a better mother because I am now getting sleep.
 
Erin truly understands what we are going through. Husbands try to be as supportive as they can but don’t truly understand.
 
And you get so many people saying "oh it's normal they aren’t sleeping my children didn’t sleep through the night until they were two".
 
And I learned it’s not normal! And giving your baby the tools to learn to sleep well is so important for babies and moms!
 
I really can’t thank you enough for what you have done for our family!
 
Allie P.

"We thought that we we're past the point of no return with our 9 month old. He wouldn't sleep without either being nursed or rocked. He would wake 5-6 times a night and would never sleep in his crib. He was either in his mother's arms or in bed with both of us. Nobody was sleeping and we were reaching critical madness. After the first week and half of this program, he would fall asleep on his own, sleep 12 hours a night, by himself, and if he awoke, he would self-sooth and go back down. 2, one hour naps per day, by himself in his crib. A borderline miracle. We are a different family now, everybody is sleeping, when he cries, we know something is wrong rather than guessing if he's tired ( before this he was, all the time). My advice, is DO IT, put aside your reservations, and do it. It will improve yours & your child's lives 10 fold. It's a tough go for the first few days, but worth its weight in gold in the end. Never mind $400, I would have paid $4000 if I'd had known the results.”

Oakley - 4 Months​

I wasn't sure if spending the money was going to be worth it. Now I can say with confidence it WAS worth it! I have my sanity back! I started this journey with waking up 4x a night and dealing with 30-40 min crap naps all day with my baby. I am now down to 1x a night and he's napping 3 solid naps a day that last anywhere from 1-3 hours depending. I don't feel like I'm living at a sleep torture camp anymore! I can't thank you enough for your support on those days I wanted to give up, for answering my 1000 questions and for giving me back some much-needed sleep.

Madelyn – 4 Months ​

​"We were at our end with our little ones’ sleep issues and having 2 older kiddos meant that there was no way for me to sleep during the day to catch up... so we had to do something about our then 4-month-old sleep habits. It took some time but now we have a baby who happily sleeps thru the night and allows our whole family to sleep better too :)"

​Erin R.

Ellie – 7 Months

“When my little one was newborn, I said I would never do sleep training with her because I never wanted to not respond when she cried out to me.
 
Our daughter reached a point where her daytime sleep did not exist because she was so distracted by her surroundings - she was miserable and it made all of us miserable!
 
We knew that the habits we had formed around her sleep were no longer sustainable and that we needed to make a change!
 
We decided to hire a sleep consultant because it gave us comfort to have a guideline and parameters to follow along with and someone to check in with along the sleep training journey. We were overwhelmed by all the information and different methods of sleep training out there and knowing that all babies are different, we did not want to wing it with a cookie cutter method.
 
Erin is wonderful to work with! We felt comfortable immediately! She is understanding and not judgemental about the sleep habits that we had in place and works with you at your comfort level to get everyone sleeping effectively! She keeps communication open throughout the process and is available for questions along the way!
 
As soon as we started sleep training with Erin, she took to it well, and there much less tears involved than we had prepared ourselves for! We have a very stubborn little girl and it became very clear, very quickly that she was ready for sleep training and we are so happy with the results!
 
We had some travel booked prior to starting and Erin gave us some great travel tips and helped us work through the days away to help our daughter get through these days smoothly. She did great!
 
We started out with a 7-month-old who was sleeping well at night but with multiple night waking’s, but never napped independently - naps only took place while nursing or in her car seat. Within days she was sleeping completely through the night and napping in her crib during the day - this gave us 2 full weeks to focus on improving her daytime sleep and at the end of the 3 weeks she is effectively napping twice a day (up to 4 hours a day)!
 
Our daughter is sleeping completely independently for 14-16 hours a day! She is happier when she is awake and goes to sleep with no tears at bedtime and at nap time! We now have a happy and well-rested baby girl (and a happy well-rested mama!)!!

​"This is the real deal and it is actually possible to have your little one sleep through the night. We were a little skeptical at first but just after the first night, our little one was sleeping through the night! Our baby is so much calmer and happier which we didn't think was possible as she was so happy before. Consistency is key and knowing you are doing this to better your little ones sleeping gives you the motivation to keep going.

​Without the help and knowledge from Erin, we would not have been able to do this. She is truly great at what she does and I would recommend her to anyone that is having any sleep issues. Sometimes no matter how hard you try, you can't wrap your head around what to do and having someone for support and to lean on who is an outsider, is so helpful. Especially since Erin has been through this with her own kids! Don't wait until you hit rock bottom and are so sleep deprived you can't think straight before you start making changes, you owe it to yourself and your little one. It is so worth it! Thank you Erin, we could not have done it without you."

Aubrey - 10 Months
My husband and I hired Erin after our 10 month old regressed to waking every 45 minutes. We were spending hours getting her to sleep - then constantly alternating turns in her room after she woke. We were exhausted and had no time with each other at all. We needed a program that was effective yet gentle enough to allow us to comfort her through the process. It wasn't easy..... But it worked! After three nights, our girl was sleeping 12 HOURS at night!!!!Naps are longer as well! We really appreciated Erin's encouragement through it, and her availability for any questions we might have had.
My husband and I watched a movie together for the first time in 6 months!!!!! Our whole family is more rested and much happier!

​April L-K

Brooklyn - 10 Months
Initially the cost was our only hesitation. I knew this was a good thing for my daughter and I realized how important getting proper sleep was but little did I know the impact it would have on our whole family. It was well worth it. 
 
Since working with Erin, my daughter goes down effortlessly twice a day for naps and is sleeping through the night (11-12 hours). She has been sleeping through the night since night 6 of the sleep plan. Along with that, she is no longer takes a soother and is completely off night feeding! I can't express how amazing of a feeling it is. She is overall an even happier baby than she was at the start of this! The real test was when her Grandma took her overnight and had the same results, no struggle to go down for naps and bedtime was a breeze, and of course no night waking.  
 
I have to say for anyone considering hiring Erin, yes, sure there is a cost but you are investing in something a new mother and mothers in general are lacking...precious sleep!  This seriously has changed our lives.  People need to know that Erin won't leave you hanging. There was always a solution to the wrenches my daughter threw at me throughout the sleep training plan. Erin is friendly, and easy to talk too. I recall a couple times I wanted to give up and didn't think I was cut out for doing the training with my daughter but Erin talked me through it and gave me solutions to fix the nap issues we had encountered. 

Not only have I seen a difference in my daughter with her sleeping but I have felt the impact too.  Prior to the sleep training plan, I was unable to get the sleep I desperately needed as well, I would be waking up anywhere from 2-3x a night whether it was for a night feeding, cause her soother was lost or I would just find myself lying in bed anticipating her waking up so in turn it kept myself up longer than necessary.  I can honestly say after doing the sleep training plan that Erin created, it has made me a better mother. I feel better in the morning, no longer lacking sleep, I'm happier and well rested which in turns makes me care for my daughter better. This is huge for me. 
​
I just wanted to thank you Erin, for your support I received throughout this process. It definitely had its ups and downs. But we are so happy with the results. It was worth every penny and I would recommend Erin to anyone.  Can't thank you enough, my only regret is not contacting Erin sooner!”

​"When our baby was only a couple of weeks old we were struggling as parents to sleep. Our daughter would sleep during the day and stay up all night and as brand new parents, we were told this is normal. In today’s day and age, there is no shortage of research, opinions, blogs, websites and friends that all add in their tidbits and anecdotes in an attempt to help. It became difficult to wade through all the information on any given subject and we decided as a couple that sleep was priority number one. We felt that if we could just get that one aspect of everything under our belts that we could handle everything else. It made sense to ask for help and it made sense to get that help from someone who knew what they were doing. Erin and I grew up together and I had seen her posts about sleep consulting on Facebook and I decided to reach out. We were concerned it was too early to start the training, but Erin assured us that it was never too early to start developing the right sleep habits. She worked closely with my wife, Sheyanne and reviewed the journals we were keeping and coached us along. It was so great to have a resource like this – another mother who was able to relate to the problems we were having and connect with my wife in order to get the sleep routine set. The guidelines were easy to understand (sometimes more difficult to implement) and achieved the goal of teaching us (the parents) the correct habits and routine. Our daughter is now 10 weeks old and sleeps for 6-10 hours at a time at bedtime. Sometimes as parents it is difficult to know if you are doing the right thing, but we know that we got this one right.
​
Thank you To the Moon and Back for your help and allowing us to get the most precious commodity available to parents, our own sleep!"

​Curtis C.

Tommy - 4.5 YO & Charlie -2.5 YOErin's intervention and support have been life changing for my family. She completed a sleep plan for both my 4 year-old and my 2 year-old. Our children now happily go to sleep on their own without a parent right beside them, and routinely sleep through the night. My husband and I have our evenings back and my children finally have the rest that they need. The overall stress in our home has gone down markedly now that everyone is finally getting adequate rest.
Erin is truly supportive and insightful. She was adept at dealing with different sleep issues presented by each of my sons and her personalized suggestions worked wonderfully. I am most happy that this was not a cry-it-out approach, so our children have had loving support in becoming confident and competent sleepers.

I highly recommend this program for problem sleepers. My only regret is not doing this sooner!
