Course Description

Anyone who works with parents of newborns knows that sleep is top of list for everyone in the household.  There is no shortage of questions and advice (often conflicting) around infant sleep. Doulas and other healthcare practitioners can play an important role around infant sleep education, normalizing some of the unpredictable sleep we see from a newborn, helping the family maximize their sleep, as well as supporting parents around instilling healthy sleep foundations right from the start.   

This course is designed for doulas and other healthcare workers who support parents with babies 0-3 months.  Here is what we’ll focus on:
  1. Most common challenges faced by new parents around sleep with a newborn
  2. The infant sleep cycle and the evolution of sleep in the 4th trimester (0-3 months)
  3. Setting up healthy sleep foundations (infant health and nutrition; emotional wellbeing of the family; healthy sleep environment; understanding sleep cues and wakeful windows; simple routines)
  4. Managing daytime naps with new baby
  5. Night waking and feeding
  6. Helping parents cope with postnatal sleep deprivation
  7. Strategies for calming fussy baby

CAPPA / DONA Accreditation Information
You will receive an official CAPPA or DONA International Certificate of Completion and be awarded 3.5 CAPPA or DONA International Continuing Education hours after completing this course.

I began supporting families around sleep shortly after I had my daughter over 10 years ago. I was fascinated by the abundance of often conflicting advice surrounding infant sleep, and so I embarked on my own exploration and education on infant and toddler sleep, attachment and mental health. This was a natural extension of my (pre-mom) career as a birth doula, and shiatsu therapist.

Today, I use an integrative approach when supporting families around sleep – my experience with childbirth education, birthing, meditation, shiatsu therapy, craniosacral therapy and nutrition has shaped a wide-lens, holistic approach to sleep learning, which I’m extremely grateful for. 

For the past 10 years I been primarily focused on offering my Supportive Sleep Coaching services to new families, as well as facilitating a variety of educational seminars on infant sleep with my community partner - Yoga Mamas Co. This aspect of my business Recoop, is continually blossoming!

I am a Certified Maternity and Child Sleep Consultant (International Maternity and Parenting Institute), member of the Association of Professional Sleep Consultants, DONA Certified Birth Doula, Certified Shiatsu Therapist and mother. I have been
working with new families for over a decade, and have been focused on sleep consulting for almost 9 years. I have a particular interest and focus on postpartum mood disorders and infant mental health and attachment.
