Hi, I’m Emily, I can help.
My name is Emily Meindertsma, I am a Physical Therapist and Pediatric Sleep Consultant. After witnessing my friends and family struggle to get their newborns to sleep, I was determined to do what ever it took to have a head start on sleep before my son was born. I read every book, blog, and post. I watched every video in a newborn sleep course. I was so excited to know there was a chance that my sleep may not suffer long term.
I knew that I needed my 8 hours every night or I was not going to be the person I wanted to be the next day. Babies are the same, they are most happy, pleasant, and playful when they sleep!
We’ve all been given the same advice before the baby comes “stock up on sleep now”. There is a belief that once the baby comes there is no chance of quality sleep until they are grown up. My mission is to prove that IT CAN BE BETTER!
This is why I decided to become certified as a sleep consultant. I want and I need to change the narrative for new parents. Sleep is possible and we all need it. I will meet you where you are to develop an individualized plan to bring the necessity of sleep back into your home. You do not need to wait years, you can have it now.
Struggling, expecting, or know someone who is? Let's talk.
