“Michelle saved my family. I say this because prior to her help my family was cracking under the strain of complete exhaustion. Our sleep deprivation stems from my sweet, wide awake, 11 month old Stella. Stella’s sleep habits were all over the place and simply confusing at times. She would nap ok during the day and then would fight her sleep all night. Sometimes she would sleep soundly but it had to be in my arms while I rocked her all night. No one in our house ever slept. My husband and I were convinced that she would never sleep in her bed or all night and that this was going to be our life. Just as we felt all was lost we were blessed with meeting Michelle. We like to say that Michelle trained us rather than trained our daughter. She taught us that for Stella to sleep at night, she must have enough sleep during the day. She also brought to our attention that Stella was giving us obvious “sleep cues” all along but we were just dismissing them and putting her to bed too late. Besides supplying my family with a sleep plan for Stella, Michelle provided us with support. We never felt alone or had to question if what we were doing was right. She was there for us 24/7. I honestly do not want to think about what would have happen to my family, my marriage or more importantly my daughter’s wellbeing if Michelle had not came to my family’s rescue. Anyone can read a book on sleep training a child and anyone can be given guidelines on how to sleep train. However, until someone takes the time to understand the whole situation, the family and child completely, can one truly have success with sleep training. I can never thank Michelle enough what she has done for my family. In fact, she is now part of our family.”
