After more than 9 months of having our daughter take naps in our arms and rocking her for hours to put her to bed at night, we asked for help and it was Rosie who completely changed our lives.
From the first call, Rosie was able to put us in total confidence with her valuable advice and we immediately knew that we would be well supported. Rosie has always listened to our needs, our story, always available, very reassuring, calm, very quick to respond to my numerous messages with my questions and above all very invested in helping us with our daughter's sleep. What I liked was that Rosie took the time to explain the steps of the process to us, but also to explain to us the possible reactions of our daughter, which ensured that we knew what to expect. wait and that we were confident in our actions.
We were so well supported and coached by Rosie that our daughter immediately adapted to her new routine.
Without a doubt, I recommend Rosie. I will definitely do business with her again for baby 2, and above all I will not wait 9 months.
Thank you again a thousand times Rosie.
Bettencourt Family
Four years ago, I found Ashley on google while desperately looking for a night nanny to alleviate us from sleep deprivation.
While she helped us get some sleep in the short term, what's more important is that she taught us so much knowledge about sleeping. We got our twin girls sleep trained with Ashley when they were 3 months old, the first night was rough, but they slept through the night from day 2.
I know many parents also said this is the best decision they’ve ever made, and I can only strongly echo that. I have seen so many benefits that good sleep can do for young kids. My girls rarely have tantrums or meltdowns, they are very focused and energized when it comes to learning and activities. They are both far exceeding their growth milestones and percentiles in terms of height. Compared to their big brother, I can tell it is good sleep that made all the differences. (darn, why I didn’t know her when I gave birth to my son! LOL)
I think of Ashley very often, I’m forever grateful for what she taught me and how she supported me at the beginning and through the entire journey.
Li Family
We had great success following Coral's personalized plan for our baby! Every interaction with Coral was a delight! She was warm, professional, empathetic, knowledgeable and supportive - we honestly could chat all day with her. Our baby went from feeding to sleep, frequent night waking and refusal to nap alone to sleeping through the night plus 3 naps in his own bed within just a few days. After the full 2 weeks with Coral, we noticed that he went to sleep quicker with less protesting after she recommended some minor tweaks, and his naps started to get much more consistent and longer. Before Coral, all three of us were a sleep-deprived, cranky mess. Too tired to wade through the deluge of information on the internet - we needed an expert to guide and encourage us and that's exactly what we got with Coral. We've been following the plan for about 6 weeks now and it's been wonderful having more of a schedule and time to ourselves. Our baby also seems so much happier now that he's getting the quality sleep he needs! We would not hesitate to recommend Coral and A Strong Beginnings to anyone!
Elliott Family
Working with Beth was amazing. My then 5.5 month old twins went from waking and crying all through the night, being pacifier dependent, and needing a night feed to easily sleeping 11-12 hours without the use of a pacifier and without waking to feed. Naps also improved dramatically! The methods used were very gentle and attentive to my babies’ needs. Overall I can’t state enough how great of an experience it was!
Tardif Family
We've been supported by Ashley at Strong Beginnings to shape our daughter's sleep when she was just a newborn. Her method and strategies were human, gentle, and adapted to our baby, our family needs, lifestyle and values. She gave us great tips to help us be more confident in helping our baby sleep, while still being able to give her the comfort and love she needed. Ashley also gave us a brand new sleep plan once our baby hit the 16-week mark which gave us a brand NEW sleeper. In just a few days she slept through the night (11+ hours) without any feeding, when just before I was still feeding her 4x a night. As a mom, I found a new balance and lots more energy for my baby during the day. I cannot recommend this team more. They're just amazing. The best money we spent for her daughter so far !
Werotte Family
All I can say is : start sooner than later. Everyone has the right moment and for us it came at 8 months of our baby girl but I wish I had known them before and was educated about sleep teaching as I have been with Coral and Strong Beginnings. We received amazing support from her and very clear instructions. I felt respected on our choices. I went from all naps in my arms (after nursing and rocking) and very hard awake times (2 hours) in the middle of night to full nights and all naps in crib. I feel like a new person and a better mom for giving my baby the gift of learning how to sleep. Highly recommend them.
~Patricia
Strong Beginnings and our consultations with Debbie have changed our lives. We went from our 2 year-old not being able to fall asleep on her own unless we rocked her for about an hour (and waking up as soon as we put her in her crib) to falling asleep on her own, in her crib, and not waking up through the night. It took about 2 weeks and our quality of life has increased tremendously. We had no clue how she would ever be able to fall asleep on her own since we thought we had done everything before. Debbie explains things so very well, and is very supportive through the whole process. We felt accompanied and supported during this transition. My only regret is...I should have called her when baby was 6 months old!
Khoriaty Family
We used Beth’s service to help with my 2 yr old son’s potty training. Beth is amazing and very supportive throughout the process. We had a few hiccups and she was very responsive and helpful! He was successfully trained after 1 month (potty independently at home/school/in public setting). Before the process, we thought it would be impossible to train him.
Nguyen Family
Words cannot begin to express our heartfelt gratitude to Ashley for changing our lives and setting us up for success not only once, but twice! Having you in-home overnight for sleep training has been transformational to help guide and coach us through something that felt so daunting to tackle on our own (we even tried with another sleep consulting company before we found you, but it was unsuccessful). It can be nerve wracking bringing someone new into your home and trusting them with your heart that lives outside of your body (our child), but I'm so grateful I pushed through that uncertainty and went for it because it's helped me to be a better mother, wife, partner, and friend. It's given my husband and I our nights back to reconnect or to tackle the things we just can't get to in the daytime, and we have a happier baby (and mama) as a result. Inviting you back for our second child was such an honour and a privilege to have you be the one to help guide all of us through again as your soft and kind presence and genuine love and care for children brought such joy and peace into our home. Thank you for helping us to get across the finish line and for holding my hand and cheering me on as we did. It was so comforting to know you were right with our son helping him to learn the valuable skill of sleep and to have you do what I felt I couldn't initially, and handing it off to me with the confidence and skills that I could. You helped me to overcome my disbelief that these things aren't possible, and to shift my perspective and belief in the capability of my child to learn the gift of sleep. You truly feel like family and we are so grateful for your wealth of knowledge and expertise in our lives!
Strang Family
I reached out to Strong Beginnings to book my consult in the middle of the night after what was the worst 2 nights we'd had with our almost 1-year old since she was born. During the consult I was met with such compassion and understanding and left the conversation feeling very hopeful. We decided to get started with the program right away as we had a trip coming up, and my return to work right after. Although I was nervous about how our first night would look, particularly with an older, very strong-willed baby, and after a failed diy program attempt, the plan was very detailed and easy to understand, and I knew I'd have support from Coral along the way. The first night went amazingly - I couldn't even believe it! My husband and I got our first full night's sleep after months of screaming, bed-sharing and cluster breast-feeding all night. We had regular phonecalls to cover any issues, questions and other special topics, such as travel (which was really important for us as we'd be travelling oversees the day our program would end). I can't explain how it worked so easily, but I truly felt so supported, heard, and that Coral was like a caring close friend helping me through a scary and emotional process in my new-mom journey. It is an investment, but we are finally getting much needed rest, and are finally able to leave our baby in the care of someone else (while sleeping) without the anxiety that she will wake up screaming and need to be breastfed back to sleep.
Djordjevic Family
Coral was so gracious and patient through every bump and hurdle as we navigated my son's sleep.
We were extremely desperate when we reached out and we will never forget her kindness and compassion. My son's sleep was quickly escalating from a major source of stress to a source of depression and resentment, both of which scared me terribly. I was so relieved after first speaking with Coral that I cried; Our nightmare was finally over!
Within 2 weeks my son was sleeping through the night and going down for his naps minutes after being put down. I would call it a miracle but no, it was all thanks to Coral and her incredible dedication and insight.
Coral, thank you from the bottom of our hearts! You're an angel.

Ashley saved me.
Before I contacted Ashley, my little Leo was waking up every 2-3 hours for 5 months. And then if you could believe it, it got worse. For 2 weeks, he was waking up every 40 minutes screaming at the top of his lungs no matter what I did, and I quickly was on the verge of a breakdown. I tried co-sleeping, sleeping beside his crib, putting him in a bassinet beside my bed - any possible arrangement you could think of, I had tried. Between hearing my son cry and scream as if something was hurting him every 40 minutes and the sleep deprivation, I was having breakdowns every day and almost every other hour scared that Leo was not getting enough sleep to the point that it'd impact his development.
I finally reached out to Ashley after what felt like an eternity. I knew I did not want to leave Leo alone in his room, but I also knew that he needed sleep. Ashley walked me through how I could help Leo get the sleep he needs, but also be there to encourage him and show him that I would always be with him every step of the way. The very first night with Ashley, Leo was able to sleep more than 3 hours and by the third, he was sleeping through the night.
We have hit another sleep issue, which Ashley is currently helping us through and I would put my trust in no one else.
Thank you so much for helping my son, Ashley, and for helping me regain my sanity!!
Im Family
Can you review 10 stars plus?! We cannot thank Ashley & Strong Beginnings for the in-home support while sleep training, we are all much better for it! The whole process is seamless and Ashley makes it comfortable for everyone involved from parents to siblings to extended family. She truly is a “baby whisperer” and is a one of a kind extraordinary human. Don’t think twice - you won’t regret it. And you can’t put a price on your health, your partners or your children’s’ health and sleep is essential. Once you’ve had Ashely in your home, you won’t know how you previously managed!
Adam Family
My husband and I were experiencing significant challenges in our quality of life due to chronic sleep deprivation. Thanks to Ashley's guidance, compassion, empathy, and support, our 5.5-month-old now consistently falls asleep for all naps and bedtime with minimal to no resistance. As a result, we are all now well-rested, content, and genuinely enjoying parenthood. Our baby appears noticeably happier, more energetic, and overall is just a different baby. Ashley was present throughout the entire process, reassuring us at every step and ensuring a positive outcome. Getting help from Strong Beginning’s has proven to be the best decision we have made for our family and I wholeheartedly recommend them/Ashley for anyone facing similar challenges.
Krikorian Family
Coral was so wonderful. She was so helpful and still answers my questions even though we have finished the program. I was so nervous to start sleep training my little one, but she helped us through the process and within just a few days he was sleeping through the night. He was ten months old and had been sleeping in the bed with me for months and was never a good sleeper. I was at my wit’s end and tired all the time. I never got to spend time by myself or with my husband because the baby wouldn’t sleep without me. I was so surprised that he transitioned to sleeping in his crib so quickly, and he slept so much better too! He also now takes consistent naps and goes to bed much earlier. We couldn’t have done it without Coral. She helped us know what to do in various situations and explained everything to us and helped us feel at ease. I strongly recommend this program for anyone wanting to get more sleep and help their little one sleep. 10/10! So worth the money!
Yeakley Family
Ashley was absolutely AMAZING to work with! She took the time to develop a sleep plan for our daughter that fit our family needs and was with us every step of the way for anything we needed. Our daughter now sleeps through the night and is napping like a champ. We couldn’t have done it without her. Thank you Ashley!
Surian Family
Orangeville, ON
I was stressing out about my 3 month old son's sleep - and the difficulty I was having getting him to sleep. Our family is so happy we reached out to Ashley and her plan to help worked like a charm. It was tough at first (but really only the first few days) but got easier and now we have a routine and a happy sleeper. Having my son get the sleep he needs has also helped him with him physical milestones. I definitely recommend Strong Beginnings and Ashley to any considering sleep training!
Arnett Family
Kelowna, BC
I have thought about how to write a review as the positive effect that Ashley has had on our lives is profound. We hired Ashley when our 15 month old began vomiting every night when we put her to bed. We had tried to solve the issue on our own and to say we were hesitant about sleep training and crying it out would be an overstatement. We wanted to avoid it at all costs but our daughter strong-armed us into it. Ashley created a customized plan that didn't allow us to lose the things we loved like cuddling before bed. She wanted to learn about more than just her sleeping we talked about digestion, about her personality, about her likes and dislikes, her poop. It was all-encompassing as a person. We now have a solid routine that is better for our daughter and easier for us. We don't have to squeeze in brushing teeth or reading books because we have a set plan that is so easy and that our daughter enjoys. Ashleys support us through it all, we never felt alone and never felt unsure of the process. Her knowledge of why we were doing what we were doing allowed us to have faith in the process. In two days we had given up night feeds and our daughter was sleeping through the night with no wake ups. By night 10 she knew the routine and had no issues going to bed. What surprised me most though was the ripple effect the sleep training has had.
Our daughter is less picky when it comes to eating, she actually eats now, he digestion is amazing, she is less fussy in the car seat and more extroverted when it comes to trying new things. It was the best investment we have ever spent and I would not hesitate to hire Ashley again or sleep train. It was not nearly as bad as I had made it out in my mind. I cannot thank Ashley enough!!!
Swan Family
Coldstream, BC
We have had a long hard time with getting our son to sleep, he’s extremely stubborn and I was not getting much more than a couple of hours a night of sleep. I felt like I was doing everything wrong and that I was failing. I contacted Ashley and she immediately reassured me that I wasn’t failing and that asking for help was a a hard but courageous step. We still weren’t sure if sleep consultation was for us, especially my husband, he was a “non believer”. Now we only had our consultation today but after our meeting with Ashley I felt I had been given the tools to start me on my journey , and I felt supported and encouraged , and as any first time mom knows, that is so helpful. Tonight is night one ... and although it started super tough , my son is currently asleep... now we might not have an easy road ahead full of perfect nights but I feel like we have the back up to get us where we need to be. Thank you Ashley
Basso/Snyder Family
Kelowna, BC
Friends, family or anyone who has a little person struggling with sleep, i STRONGLY encourage you to call Ashley. She 100% fixed our sleep concerns with our youngest (people close to us know the real battle) 12 solid hours of sleep from 3 -5 wake ups per night has changed our lives. We seen SIGNIFICANT results on the first night, and we didn't haveto let Norah cry it out alone.
No more being asked by our 3.5 year old "mommy are you sad?" and having to explain I'm just exhausted. Was it hard to admit we needed help? Yes. Was it hard to ask for help? Yes. Was it worth the time, money and sanity gained? ABSOLUTELY!! Ashley listened to us, cared about our situation and customized a plan for our family. She always had Norah and our family's best intrest in mind while encouraging us that we could do this, and we did it! You and your family don't have to live without sleep. Call her, do it now, you won't be disappointed.
Tate Family
Kamloops, BC
I met Ashley when I was 9 months pregnant with our 3rd baby! During this time we were having difficulties with our 3 year old. He would only let Mom put him to bed, we had to lay with him until he fell asleep, and he would always end up in our bed during the night. This became super difficult especially once baby was born! Then here comes Ashley to the rescue!!!!!! She was so helpful and we could tell she truly cared about helping us and our son with his sleep. He now goes to sleep on his own after our bedtime routine, and he stays in his bed until the sun comes up! We all look forward to bedtime now, our son included! And even on vacation the routine sticks and works. Thank you Ashley!!
Cecchini Family
Kamloops, BC
Not really sure how or where to start this review - one thing I am sure of is that Ashley is a real life earth angel!
Our 6 month daughter had gotten into a routine/bad habit (our fault!) of being rocked or fed to sleep & whilst she would go to sleep relatively well, give it 2 hours and she’d be awake needing that rock/cuddle/bottle to fall back to sleep & this would continue.. every 30/45 minutes.. all.night.long. (A huge shock to the system after our 2 year old boy slept through the night from 6 weeks old!!)
Of course I loved the sleepy cuddles my daughter quite clearly wanted but 20-30 times a night was becoming draining, especially when our (angel sleeper) 2 year olds sleep was being affected.
I was sleep deprived, my daughter was sleep deprived and miserable, my son’s behavior was changing from lack of sleep and my husband was going to work exhausted and doing 14/15 hour days including long stretches of driving. My days were filled with increasing anxiety of how bedtime would be & I was becoming that miserable grumpy snappy mummy, the one I vowed I’d never be.
Then we found Ashley! If I’m being honest, I was skeptical, how could a stranger talk to us for an hour over the phone and suddenly change our daughters sleep? But I was broken & it was either invest in this or end up ill.
Ashley filled us with so much positivity and reassurance from the initial consultation, the next night we implemented the sleep plan... no more dummy, no more night feeds, no more rocking back to sleep.. 4 nights later our daughter slept through 7-6am!
We had good days and ok days but never a ‘bad day’. We are now 5 weeks since finishing our journey with Ashley and our 8 month old naps twice a day for 1.5-2hrs each, she self soothes herself to sleep for naps and night time sleep & we don’t hear a peep out of her from 7pm-7am 🙂
We have a very happy baby & our house has been restored to its former happy, well rested family!
Ashley’s support and care goes beyond the 2 weeks you invest in, she’s there when you need her, when you think “aaaah this isn’t going to plan tonight what do I do?”
If you’re ever thinking about hiring a sleep consultant.. Ashley is your person.
Honestly, she’s changed our lives.
Thank you again 💕💕💕💕
Breeze Family
Essex, UK
As an early childhood educator and a mom of two I understand how important sleep is. After this seminar I feel very confident in my understanding of the different stages of sleep. The importance of understanding the stages to make the right decision for the child. How it’s ok to if you don’t have all the answers of why your child won’t sleep. Asking for help is just being proactive it doesn’t diminish us as parents it makes us stronger.
Theresa Martyn ECE
Sleep Education Attendee
Ashley was very supportive and knowledgable and went beyond to make sure all of our needs were met. She truly understands from a mother’s perspective the challenges of teaching a young baby sleep! Our sleep greatly improved here, even tho we still have our ups and downs I am not anxious anymore about bedtime and the night to come, I actually love watching my baby on my monitor peacefully falling asleep on her own. I would highly recommend her to anyone who struggle with their little one’s sleep!
Dery Family

Ashley was amazing! She was very, very reassuring and answered any and all questions we had in regards to our babies sleep issues. Violet is going on week 4 or 5 of sleeping through the night and having great naps! Ashley was a life saver to my sanity and own sleep! I highly recommend Ashley for all your sleep needs!!!!
Engleking Family
Morinville, AB
I am so grateful for the support Ashley provided me, and our family, with! On the second night of sleep training my babe slept for 11 hours, after 6 months of waking up 4-5 times per night. With the amount of sleep Ashley guided us to, I also rediscovered myself and found joy again in my hobbies and relationship! Sleep is a wonderful thing! The training is hardly a ‘cry it out’ method, as it is laced with so much love, which was so important. If you are like I was, and can’t quite remember what life is like with a good nights sleep, I would give this baby wizard a whirl!
Taylor Family

Ashley was amazing to us and especially our little girl!! Because of Ashley everyone in our house LOVES sleep. I highly recommend her!! Very knowledgeable and extremely supportive.
Rushton Family
Kelowna, BC
Working with Ashley has brought peace and balance back to our family. Our 8 month old daughter had every bad sleep habit in the book. We spent months struggling with the poor sleep habits we unknowingly created in our baby. The hourly night wakings and constant feedings, milk/ sleep associations, inability to nap longer than 20 minutes, content stroller/car ride/baby carrier attempts to just get her to SLEEP.. The stress of our daily lives had gotten too much for us, we could see how it was negatively affecting our girl. When we first spoke to Ashley, it was clear how passionate she was about helping us. She approached our difficult questions and concerns with the kind of empathy only a mother could understand. She went above and beyond to understand our family and ensure we felt supported and reassured during the entire process. She customized a plan specific to our needs, constantly adjusting as things played out. Most importantly, she always listened to my concerns, made me feel validated as a parent and empowered as a Mother. The love she poured into every conversation gave us the confidence we needed to change our ways and break these habits. After only one week, my daughter is a completely different baby. We are finally starting to enjoy this new life together as a family and cant’ thank her enough for this gift! I would highly recommend hiring Ashley to help your child learn to get the rest they need and bring balance back to your family!
Langlands Family
Vernon, BC
Ashley came into my home and changed my life. I have 3 children and my 4yr old and 2 yr old did not sleep. countless hours trying to put them to bed, only for them both to be up 7+ times through our the night. My doctors had me give both my younger children melatonin. This soon turned into every night of giving melatonin. If it wasnt given my kids could have been awake until midnight. Ashley came in and truly changed my life, my children now love sleep and so do I. We are 2 months in and still going strong. The steps she gives you are attainable by parents and children. My husband is away most of the time so I had 2 children to follow the steps with. I would recommend Ashley to anyone who is struggling. Hiring Ashley truly saved my sanity.
Armstrong Family
Penticton, BC
We had been struggling with our baby getting up every 2 hours and only napping on either myself or my husband. Within 3 days we had slept through the night and last night (Christmas Eve) she slept 11 hours and 45 minutes! We had joked that we wanted sleep for Christmas, never imagining we would actually get it but Ashley coached us through the hard parts and helped us to successfully teach our baby how to sleep!
I struggle with Postpartum anxiety and Ashley was able to assuage my fears and helped me to realize that we were doing what was best for our little one and for ourselves. I am very grateful that we decided to take the leap of faith and do this because sleep is amazing.
Jeffrey Family
Morinville, AB
Having a Ashley as a night nanny helped my husband and I to get some well needed rest that was key for me for birth recovery. Being well-rested helped us to be better parents during the day and offer our daughter much more love and attention than we could have had we been up all night. It was also fantastic to have someone with her at night who has experience with newborns as Ashley could help us understand what to expect and how to handle certain situations that may arise, not only with sleep but also with regular newborn affairs.
I couldn’t recommend a night nanny more. If there is one tool that helps to ease into parenthood it’s not all the toys and motion chairs and rattles and fancy clothes, it’s a night nanny! I was shocked when people would make condescending comments about me as a mother in terms of why would someone have a child if they don’t want to raise it! But, I see it as quite the opposite. I see sleep as the enabler for me to be the best mum I can be!
Mclean Family
Canmore, AB
After many months of sleepless nights, my wife and I hired Ashley to sleep train our 6 month old son. We were definitely at our wits’ end after months of bouncing and rocking our baby to sleep for 10 hours throughout the day and night. We had tried everything to get him to sleep and nothing worked, until two nights with Ashley’s training.
Since then, our son sleeps through the night. This is by far the BEST INVESTMENT we have ever made. Our son is much happier, well rested and joyful. My wife and I are back to feeling like ourselves again.
Having Ashley in our home for a few nights was extremely helpful and a feeling of calm came over us, trusting that we were in such good hands. Ashley offered continued support and encouragement for weeks to come which allowed us to gain confidence and learn to trust our instincts while still feeling safe and guided.
Our son is such a solid sleeper now, he sleeps right through dinner parties and traveling for the holidays. This is something we couldn’t even imagine possible a few months ago.
We highly recommend her services and plan to bring her back in for all future sleep and potty training.

Personally, I loved the experience. We were not too sure of the result when we decided to start this experience, but as soon as we embarked, I can assure you that we ended with an extraordinary result. Our baby woke up every 3 hours in the evening, but now he sleeps 12 hours continuously. We are extremely grateful to have been able to take this adventure which has resulted in an extremely positive result. Thank you very much Ashley for your help.
Mestiri Family

Ashley is a sleep wizard! We thought our 7 month old was untrainable, but Ashley helped us through the process and now our little one naps on a schedule PLUS gets 11-12 hours straight at night! Best decision we ever made, hands down.
Rothery Family
Kelowna, BC
I sought out Ashley’s service when my son was almost 4 months old. His father and I were struggling tremendously with caring for our little rambunctious baby who just wouldn’t sleep or breastfeed well. I was anxious without sleeping more than two hours at a time. My life was falling apart.
After my relationship ended and I found myself parenting very much on my own, I relied on Ashley greatly for her caring and very specific help. I can say in all certainty: I can’t fathom having gone through this time without her.
She is more devoted and loving than I could have imagined. She had an answer for every struggle I faced, and there were many. She promised me my baby would find sleep if we offered him the routine his little body was craving… and she was SO right!! Even when I second guessed myself and screwed up her advice sometimes, she stuck by me and my son NEVER letting me down.
I cry often with gratitude for all she has done for me. I don’t think I could ever thank her enough. My son sleeps effortlessly through the night, he wakes happy and rested and breastfeeds like a champ! I had no idea sleep could cause breastfeeding issues!
If you are afraid of the process or unsure of what to expect, please try Ashley! She definitely has your baby in her heart while she works with you. She has true passion for this work!
Millan Family

Contacting Ashley to help me with my 15 month old baby’s sleep issues was one of the best decisions I made! Having gone through major sleep issues with my older child, who is now 6, I didn’t want to head down the same road with my youngest. She helped us every step of the way, with clear, supportive, reasonable and gentle guidelines. She was prompt with responding to any questions I had, and covered every possible thing that I needed to know about sleep training and maintaining sleeping through the night from here on out! My baby went from waking up 3 times a night, for night feeds, co-sleeping part of the night, helping her back to sleep ect, to sleeping 12 hours straight with a solid day time nap! Ashley led me to success with the sleep training despite the fact that I was traveling, the baby ended up sick with a cold, and was actively teething for a couple days in the middle of it all! I am so grateful for Ashley, and my only regret is that I didn’t find her sooner to sleep train my older child!!
Sarpal Family
Calgary, AB
When I first had my now 5.5 month old son I swore up and down that I would never sleep train. My understanding was the out dated belief of the “cry it out method.” However after 5 months of co-sleeping, nursing/bouncing to sleep. The little monkey would only sleep if he was held and his longest nap in the crib was 40 minutes. I was in dire need of a break and some alone time! I am also well versed in attachment parenting and concerned about having my son cry himself to sleep. After speaking with numerous other consultants I went with Ashley because she was, kind, supportive, direct and easy to talk to. I felt heard and validated. With her support our son sleeps thru the night (11-12hrs) and takes every nap in his crib! He now goes to sleep with minimal fuss and all on his own providing me with time to shower, nap, eat etc. He had a few ups and downs but Ashley was consistent and available, knowledgeable and reassuring! I would highly recommend her for anyone needing support with sleep!
Brown Family
Victoria, BC
We have used Ashely before with our son, but with our defiant little girl, we knew we needed the professional expertise of Ashley once again. Our son is 20 months old and our daughter 4 months old so we needed some help. My little girl wouldn’t nap. Ever. Unless rocked or in car. She also took around 2 hours to put to bed at night. Well, the second night of sleep training, my little girl slept 11 hours straight without a wake!!!! We are now just over a week, and have had the only slight wake where she comfortably puts herself back to sleep. And naps??? At least 4.5 hours a day. One of her naps was almost 3 hours long!! (All in her crib of course).
Ashley has given us back some freedom (especially momma). She’s also amazing at providing excellent support and suggestions with things non-sleep related like how to get my baby to take a bottle (her suggestion worked like a charm I recommend Ashely to anyone and everyone who has had babies.
Nicholls Family
Kelowna, BC
Ashley came recommended to me by a colleague and friend. It has been a great pleasure to work with her. She is personable and professional. Her sleep training method works and is straight forward to implement. My baby went from having 7 hours of fitful sleep at night at 3 months old to 12 hours of restful sleep in 3 days! Now that she is sleeping well at night, I am also able to get the rest I need. We no longer need a soother, a sound machine, or me rocking her to sleep! My husband was somewhat skeptical in the beginning, but now that he has seen the result he could not be happier. I would highly recommend Ashley to any of my friends and family, and I would not hesitate to ask her for help again.

Ashley came into my life when my son was 7 months old. I was a working Momma struggling with exhaustion and was at my wits end. Ashley was my angel!!! She helped my husband and I teach our son to sleep, she offered support when things were difficult, and the result was nothing short of amazing. Our son is now over a year and a half, still a solid sleeper during the night and at nap time. No doubt in my mind that Ashley was the best choice for our family. She is work every penny!! I tell all my friends and family that Ashley was the BEST INVESTMENT that we have ever made. Our son sleeps, which means we sleep! A well rested family is a happy family!!! Thank you Ashley!!!

Ashley’s help and commitment to our family has been outstanding, I could not have asked for a more loving and professional consultant. Ava was waking up 5 times in the night, on and off with bottle feeding, sleeping with her dummy and having to be shhh’d or held to sleep. Her naps consisted of being rocked in a swigging chair and being wrapped tight in our arms, they were short and we were getting exhausted! Ashley helped us say goodbye to all these bad habits and gave us new tools and strategies to teach Ava to sleep. She now sleeps through the night and goes down for her naps without any fuss all by herself! We are so grateful for her coaching. We get so much more sleep and Ava is the happiest little girl, we always get comments on how happy she is.

Ashley was a god send for our family. She worked closely with my wife and I to sleep train our 1 year old girl. She made it easy and helped us in a process that we would never have been able to complete without her. It saved us as parents and made an immediate impact on the wellbeing and quality of sleep in our daughter. She has slept through the night (7:30pm – 7:30am) without complaint ever since, we simply get her ready for bed and once we put her down she goes to sleep without fuss. I 100% recommend Ashley’s services to all parents.
