As a mom of two young kids, I understand how tired you are, and I am here to help. I have a true passion and belief that well-rested children are the happiest, most curious, and eager little learners. I understand that sleep is precious, and I am dedicated to guiding you through this journey.
When you entrust me as your child’s “sleep guide,” whether through working with me one-on-one or in a seminar, it’s not just a responsibility—it’s a commitment. I take this trust very seriously because I have been in your shoes.
Many parenting books and programs take a firm stance, often centered around the “cry it out” method. But I believe that your child’s sleep is paramount, and I respect your unique parenting style. The bottom line is, as parents, you need to be comfortable with your child’s new sleep plan for it to truly work.

My approach to improving your child’s sleep is simple:
- I provide you with honest insights into WHY sleep is crucial for your child’s well-being. This knowledge will empower you to make the necessary changes in your child’s sleep habits.
- I lay out a straightforward, step-by-step plan that allows you to make choices that are right for your child. No one knows your child better than you do, and I encourage you to tailor their sleep plan based on your unique insights.
- I help you set realistic expectations. I understand that the journey to better sleep might involve a few bumps along the way, and I’ll guide you on what to expect as you progress.
Now, let’s address the big “crying” question, as it’s something that concerns many parents. I get it, and I want you to know that I am here for you.
Crying is your child’s way of expressing their feelings, especially when change is afoot. Adjusting their sleep routine might lead to some protests. I am honest about this—it’s likely that you will experience some level of protest from your child.
But please, understand that I will never ask you to leave your child to cry alone, nor will I suggest ignoring their cries. I am successful with families by working with parents to help you develop a plan that feels right for you, based on your deep understanding of your child. I am here to support you every step of the way.
If you have any questions at all about my philosophy and what makes me so successful with helping tired families, please don’t hesitate to ask! I can be reached by email at katienilles@knsleep.com
