Gentle baby sleep support for families who don't want to sleep train
Holistic sleep coaching for babies and toddlers that supports attachment, honors parental instincts, and helps everyone get more rest.
Looking for a gentle sleep consultant in Austin?
If your baby wakes frequently, resists naps, struggles with bedtime, or needs support with a sleep transition, you're not alone.
I'm Sasha, a certified baby-led sleep and wellbeing specialist based in Austin, Texas. I help families improve sleep through attachment-based, neuroscience-informed support that never uses traditional sleep training methods.
Whether you're navigating newborn sleep, toddler bedtime battles, frequent night wakings, or developmental sleep changes, we'll create a plan that supports your child's needs while helping your whole family get more rest.
I know, nothing could have prepared you for the sleepless nights…
The nights you spend rocking your baby, just for them to wake up again when you finally put them in their crib…or frequent wakes and early rising…nap refusals and bedtime battles…with no end in sight.
The advice out there is generic and conflicting. The external pressure to use sleep training methods that go against your maternal instincts is overwhelming. You even started doubting your parenting, your values and just dreading nighttime. Not at all what you pictured for your parenting journey.
But you KNOW in your bones that your baby needs you when they cry.
You WANT to be there for your little one. After all, this is how you’d treat anyone else you love.
You’re COMMITTED to building a strong, secure attachment with your baby.
BUT you’re no longer willing to sacrifice your wellbeing because it’s becoming too much to handle.
That’s where I come in.
Let me assure you, you CAN get more sleep AND build a strong attachment. With the right guidance and expertise, you CAN have more peaceful nights without having to ignore your baby’s cries, without strict, generic instructions, and without refusing comfort or avoiding eye contact!
I'm here to help your family find rest in a way that honors your instinct and values, as well as your baby's unique needs.
My comprehensive, attachment-focused sleep support addresses the root causes of sleep struggles, educates you on healthy infant sleep and development, and equips you to change the sleep habits that no longer work for you.
It doesn’t end there. Along with more rest, you will gain the confidence and knowledge you need to be the best parent for your baby for years to come.
