Testimonials

Kate is simply phenomenal. She came to our house to do our prenatal class and it was nothing but a pleasure to have her there. My husband and I received all the information that we were hoping to learn in regards to the next month prior to birth, the birth and what to expect after.
I feel confident knowing that I can call her right up until the birth with further questions or concerns.
I’m hoping that we won’t need any help with feeding or sleeping (as I’m sure all parents do) however would love to see Kate again if we do. And I know that with the stresses that accompany being first time parents Kate will be able to support and guide both my husband and I to be the best parents we can be.

Thank you so much Kate!!!

– Natasha

I’m so happy I made the decision to work with Kate starting from pregnancy learning about breastfeeding and after birth learning everything else. Kate always made me feel comfortable during home visits and when we would chat on the phone. Being a first time mom everything was so new but I felt much more equipped with the resources Kate gave me and when she answered all of my questions. Kate was always quick to communicate through email when I had questions or just to check in. Worth every penny!

Jody

If it weren’t for Kate I would probably still be nursing my 15 month old back to sleep every two hours! I highly recommend her and am so thankful I called when I did! My little one is sleeping through the night now every night and what a difference this has made on our lives! My daughter is happier now that she is getting the rest that she needs and I’m no longer a walking zombie, win win!! Lol
I finally left the house at night a couple weeks ago to take my 12 year old shopping and for ice cream for the first time in almost 15 months! So happy I met Kate and decided to commit to sleep training! A whole new world for our family for sure!

Sleep Testimonials

Kate saved my sanity. Everyone that knows us know our baby girl was colic and a horrible horrible sleeper. It was taking me 1-4 hours to get her settled down to sleep at night. She would be up several times a night wanting her soother or a bottle. My husband works away, I was barely functioning and felt like I had no time with my 5 year old son. I started working with Kate and literally only a few days later our 6 month old was sleeping 12 hours a night plus taking a 2 hour nap in the morning and a 1 hour nap in the afternoon. I was skeptical anyone could help our babe especially taking her soother away I had a lot of anxiety as it was the only thing at the time keeping her quiet a few minutes at a time. However; I was merely amazed with the tools Kate gave me to get her sleeping and taking her soother away. Our little girl is much happier and so is her mama! The only thing I would have changed is starting alot sooner!! Thank you SO much Kate!! I have so much more time with my son and enjoy my quiet evenings.

Trish

Our little guy was just over 3 months old when we hired Kate to help us out. He would only nurse to sleep, and refused to nap more than 25 minutes during the day. My husband felt so frustrated because he could never put our son to sleep, and afternoons with dad would quickly turn into an over-tired, cranky mess. I was exhausted and depleted nursing our son to sleep every 2 hours through the night. After one night of working with Kate, our son now falls asleep independently at night and during the day, my husband feels so much more confident to care for our son, and we’re all getting a full night’s sleep! He is now sleeping longer during the day as well, and is almost never cranky anymore! As my husband says, this was the best money we’ve ever spent!

Michelle

I remember sitting on the floor in my hallway at 10pm listening to my 3.5 month old crying because she couldn’t sleep unless she was attached or on me and I couldn’t put her down without her popping awake, then repeat …. bad habits formed when I get desperate! I was so upset and reached out to Kate through the Mama Coach. She wrote me immediately and we set up a time to talk the next day. Kate helped me with a realistic plan to help my family and our sleep goals. I’m so happy I reached out and am so happy with the support (not just for sleep but nursing, bottle, naps, schedules, and traveling). I’m even happier that I didn’t wait any longer because the bad sleep habits I started weren’t going away on their own! Thanks for everything! Kate, you helped me achieve exactly what I needed and I will be forever grateful.
