My journey into sleep consulting began right where many parents find themselves—exhausted, overwhelmed, and searching for a way to help my little one sleep peacefully. Like so many, I struggled with getting my baby to sleep independently. I found myself holding my baby through naps and bedtime, craving any routine that could make sleep feel manageable.
After months of trial and error, I decided to work with a sleep consultant. It was truly life-changing. With compassionate guidance and a customized plan, I was finally able to help my baby settle into a healthy sleep routine and sleep independently. The difference it made was incredible—not only for my baby’s sleep but also for my own sense of calm and confidence as a parent.
Inspired by this transformation, I went on to earn my certification in sleep consulting so that I could help other families find the same relief and joy that I had discovered. Today, I’m passionate about empowering parents with gentle, effective strategies that work with each family’s unique needs and values. Whether you’re preparing for a newborn or working through toddler sleep struggles, I’m here to support you in creating a calm, restful sleep foundation for your child—and your family.
I’m a certified pediatric sleep consultant and the founder of Sleepy Sailings.

My daughter has been a very difficult sleeper since day 1. We struggled with multiple nightly wake ups all throughout the first 18 months of her life. I reached out for some tips on night weaning and Amy guided me through the process, providing the expertise and support I desperately needed. Now I can gladly say that my daughter sleeps all night long without any wake ups and we have successfully weaned. I’m so very grateful for Amy at Sleepy Sailings!

Amy was a pleasure to work with. She helped my son sleep through the night on only night 3! We are all sleeping so much better in my house thanks to her support and guidance.

I freaking love the Sleepy Sailings Pediatric Sleep Consultant guide and highly recommend it! It has been so helpful on educating me about what sleep looks like with a newborn baby while ensuring that my baby is taken care of in a safe sleeping environment. I especially found the wake window chart helpful, and find myself referring back to it each time my baby hits another month milestone. So grateful!!

Working with Amy was the best decision I made for my family. We went from co-sleeping, nursing to sleep and nursing multiple times a night to sleeping through the night (in his crib) in less than a week! Every aspect of our lives is better now that we all get sleep, especially my son sleeping 12+ hours per night. I was unsure about sleep training but Amy gave me the confidence and resources I needed to follow through with it and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome.
