Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant & Holistic Sleep Coach
Baby sleep support for Colorado families who don't want to sleep train
Hi, I'm Maria!
I'm a Certified Holistic Pediatric Sleep Consultant based in Fort Collins, Colorado, offering baby sleep support without sleep training and without cry-it-out methods. If you've searched for sleep help and felt like every method asked you to override what you already know about your baby and your instincts, you're exactly who I work with.
You're not looking for a rigid method or a program that tells you to let your baby cry it out — not even a "gentler" version of it. You're looking for someone who understands that your baby's cues mean something, and who can help your family get more rest without asking you to abandon your instincts or your bond. That's the work I do: an alternative to sleep training, built around your baby's temperament and your family's values, rooted in connection — not a one-size-fits-all program.
Because all of my 1:1 coaching happens virtually, I offer baby sleep support to responsive families across the Front Range and beyond, including Fort Collins, Loveland, Windsor, Greeley, Timnath, Boulder, Longmont, Denver, and rest of Colorado.

✓ Sleep training in disguise - No extinction methods, controlled crying, or leaving your child to cry alone (not even for a second).

✔ Value responsive, attachment-based parenting and emotional connection.
