Marissa's Story
Why she became a sleep consultant
I know what it’s like to feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and frustrated with a baby who won’t sleep. Through my own struggle, I became passionate about learning everything I could about baby sleep.
I struggled with my youngest—for what felt like forever—because I didn't know what infant and child sleep should look like, or where to go for help. I was so desperate for rest every day: searching for answers, scanning the web, reading all the books, trying anything and everything, and feeling like I was failing over and over again.
But once I learned the science of healthy sleep and how to create a solid foundation for my son, it was a total game-changer. We went from constant struggles with naptime and nighttime to a child who fell asleep easily, took nice, long naps, and slept straight through the night. It was truly life-changing for our whole family! That experience motivated me to become a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant so I could help empower other parents navigating that same difficult path.
I also know that when people hear "sleep training," many different things come to mind. To me, sleep training is a flexible, supportive process tailored to each family. It does not need to be rigid or intimidating. Sleep support also needs to be accessible and do-able. That is why I love working with Huckleberry and I am thrilled to be a part of this team, working to educate and support families towards reaching their sleep goals.
"As a sleep consultant, I create sleep plans that combine evidence-based, scientifically backed methods, customized for each individual child and family."
No matter where you're starting from, I can't wait to help your whole family get the rest you need to grow and thrive!
How we work with families
Evidence-based, not trend-based
Plans are backed by science and support is adapted to your child. Every recommendation is rooted in peer-reviewed pediatric sleep research.
Flexible, family-centered methods
There's no single approach for sleep. Our consultants work with your parenting values and comfort level, so the plan feels just right.
Education over prescription
We help you understand the plan, not just follow it. You get the "why" behind each step, so you can respond with confidence.
