Meet Lauren O’Donnell, Certified Infant and Child Sleep Consultant

Why Child Sleep Consulting? Sleep is something that everyone wants more of! It was no surprise to me that I needed sleep too after my first child was born.  I also quickly became pregnant after the birth of my first child with our second child, so I knew I needed sleep even more!  My family’s sleep training experiences were positive and life changing moments for us.  My children continue to be happier, healthier, and learn more because of the experience.  I knew this was my passion as I wanted to help other families get the rest and sleep they and their child deserve.
