To Sleep, or Not to Sleep…
Hey Y’all, we have a great topic to discuss! Raise your hand if you are a parent. Now, raise your hand if you are a parent of littles that aren’t sleeping good. You are beyond exhausted…desperate even. That was me a little over a year ago. About this time last year, I had an almost two year old and a newborn. You would think that I’d have the toddler figured out by this point and would only be struggling with the newborn who was waking every 2-3 hours to nurse. Nope. My firstborn had been stealing my sleep since 2017 and now that I had another sleep stealer. I needed help. Major intervention. By the grace of God, literally, I met Breni. She had reached out to my husband’s management explaining her services and the email was forwarded to me out of obligation. Immediately, I emailed her and the rest is history. Suffice it all to say, I have two great sleepers now and mama is getting the rest she needs too.
Some of you may be struggling with a sleep challenged child, and we thought it may be great opportunity to do a live with Breni to discuss some of those issues, or address questions you may have. If you do have some questions you would like discussed during the live, what we would like to have you do is ask those questions in the comment section here. We will get to as many as possible! We will also be doing a fantastic giveaway from during the live! Information AND a massive giveaway!!! Yes!
Meet Breni!
I would like to introduce Breni; who officially is Breni Malpass, of Seaside Sleep Consulting. However, we just call her A Sleep Guru, miracle worker, etc… You get the impact she has made in our family. We asked Breni to give a brief overview as to why she decided to commit to this specialty, and what is involved with Sleep Consultancy.
I am a mom of two and I remember that eye-twitching, what-day-is-it new mama exhaustion like it was yesterday. After navigating vastly different sleep struggles with the two little ones, I understood just how confusing, frustrating and debilitating lack of sleep could be. As a Certified Child Behavior Specialist, working with a gazillion families with babies and five year olds, twins and kids with special needs it is important to keep in mind, each child is different. Each parent has their own style. And each family has its own rhythms. ONE THING is true every time: every family needs and deserves sleep to be healthy and connected. Therefore, I vowed never to leave a sleep-deprived mama behind!
Fueled by a drive to help other parents, I completed my extensive training through the Family Sleep Institute, and Seaside Sleep Consulting was born. I help guide families who are frustrated and exhausted from not being able to establish consistent bedtime/naptime routines, too many night wakings, or just need a little direction on developing a schedule that is right for their child. In addition to being a Certified Child Sleep Consultant, I am also a Certified Child Behavior Specialist. I work with families to navigate behavioral challenges such as tantrums, time-outs, potty readiness, picky eaters, and much more. Whether it's sleep or behavior, I work with each family to educate and develop a customized action plan which focuses on each family’s unique needs and desired outcomes.
