Hello! My name is Nicole Janse Van Rensburg and I am a Certified Sleep Consultant. When I had my first child, I had no idea the things I was doing to soothe my baby to sleep were teaching him how to get to sleep. So, when it was time for him to sleep for longer periods, he was still depending on me to do all of those things to get him to sleep. But, suddenly those things weren't working as well and if I laid him down, he would wake right back up again and the process would start all over. I just wish I knew that small steps in the beginning could have changed everything. BUT, After struggling with sleep with my first and then giving birth to another little boy, I couldn't live like that anymore. I hit the end of my rope, and that's when I decided to do something about it. I love to research, so I hit the internet!

I am a big fan of helping tired parents and children get the sleep they need to wake up happy and to live healthy. God did not put us on this planet to live like zombies and struggle to cope as new parents. It takes a little work and a lot of consistency, but my plan works every time if you stick to it!
