Frequently Asked Questions

At "Moore Sleep Consulting", we are dedicated to going the extra mile to help you achieve your personal goals for your child's sleep and for YOURS! I never want to end my time with a client where they still feel like they are still trying to survive through the night. I want families to feel a huge difference from before they started the process all the way to the end. I strive to encourage parents to be confident in order to see the results of their child sleeping independently within a short time!

Yes, currently all services are remote therefore, all services can be conducted anywhere in the world! I can work with clients anytime, anywhere! 

All of our methods that we provide and educate parents with are more gentle methods of sleep coaching/training. We almost never recommend this method unless it is at the parents' request and they are comfortable with this. Before creating a customized sleep plan for your child, I will always ask what your parenting philosophy is and how much crying you are comfortable with in this process to create the best plan for you and your family. There are so many methods and options, and I always want to make sure you, the parent are never uncomfortable with any approach we take. However, all methods will result in SOME crying (some more than others, depending on your child's temperament as well). This does not mean that results are not coming, but that your child is protesting the change that is happening. 

This Is a common question! We always strive for progress, not perfection! Sleep training is not a race, and will look different for every family and child. Every single child has their own unique personality and temperament which can impact how they respond to the sleep training methods. Every parent also has their own parenting philosophy. This is why we create a CUSTOM sleep plan for each child we work with that will fit the child's temperament and the parent's style the best! Once we review the plan together, results will come if the parents are consistently following the steps suggested by the sleep consultant. Oftentimes, if parents are consistent and diligent, they can see results/progress in two weeks or less! 

I highly recommend the company "Dreamland Baby". I have tried ALL of the products out there for my two sons and overall, this company has made the biggest difference in my second son's sleep. All of their products are high quality and their sleep sacks are lightly weighted which gives babies a feeling of comfort like they are being hugged. This helps them sleep longer stretches at night! For 15% off of your purchase, you can go to their website and apply the code "mooresleep" at checkout!  (They have products for babies, toddlers AND older children as well)

This is totally understandable, especially from a mother's point of view! Our goal is to make this process as gentle as possible, providing you with the tools you need to be successful to be able to sleep train your child. There WILL be some crying involved because that is your baby's way of communicating to you. They are protesting the change that is occurring, even though you know what is best for your child! You understand the purpose of why you are training them to sleep independently, and that is to ultimately be able to get the REST you and your child need! It is normal for humans to express themselves and that is how babies do so,  by crying! That does not mean that they are not fed, clean and safe. It is just how they protest the change. 

We can help reach any of your sleep and schedule goals! We can educate you on how to help your child sleep longer stretches at night, wean night feedings, lengthen naps, sleep through the night, assist with schedules, removing sleep associations/crutches and much more! We also help with transitions such as crib to toddler bed, bottle to sippy cup, and cutting out the BINKIE! 

Ultimately, you can start sleep shaping/training anytime, if you are 100% committed to the process and will be open to trying new things and receiving guidance! Typically, we recommend formally sleep training when your child hits either 12 lbs or four months. If you have problems with your newborn's sleep, we have a newborn package where we can help start that process to create healthy sleep habits and start forming a schedule and plan for independent sleep. If you have a baby that is 12 lbs/4 months old, we can dive right in to finding solutions to your child's sleep problems! 

Sleep associations are props (such as a binkie, rocking, feeding...) that help your child fall asleep. They can be a good thing, specifically with newborns who cannot self soothe yet, and can be a negative thing as well with older babies/children which can prevent them from  learning how to fall asleep independently. We can help you replace those sleep associations with a method to aid in independent sleep for your child! 

We take time to understand first and foremost your child's temperament, your parenting style, your family context and your sleep situation to develop a customized plan for each family. This is not a one size fits all plan! We develop a plan from a detailed questionnaire as well as assessing daily sleep/feeding logs which help us get a well rounded view of how to help you!
