I help exhausted parents get their babies and toddlers sleeping through the night, with gentle, proven methods that actually work.
"Upon meeting our sleep coach, Danielle, I started seeing improvements within days" - Melissa (mom of 5 year old)
Sound familiar?
You've tried everything. You're still exhausted.
You've read the books. Watched the videos. Asked in every Facebook group.
And somehow you're more confused than when you started.
Every night blends into the next. The exhaustion is spilling into everything... your patience, your relationships, the version of yourself you used to be..
...and you wonder if you'll ever sleep again.
About me
I hear you, because I've been exactly where you are...
I remember sitting in my baby's nursery at 2am, rocking my daughter for what felt like the hundredth time, just begging for a few hours of sleep, and knew I needed to do something about it.
Hi! I’m Danielle, a certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant trained through The Cradle Coach Academy, previous MFT therapist, nanny for 10 years, and a now mom of 2. I help exhausted parents gently teach their babies and toddlers to sleep without letting them cry it out or lose their minds in the process.
I believe sleep should feel restorative for your baby, and for you. I believe bedtime doesn’t have to be a battle. It can be a beautiful connection. Calm, and even something you look forward to.
I believe in the magic of the little moments, the snuggles before sleep, the quiet coffee before the house wakes, the feeling of finally thriving, and not just surviving.
Because sleep training shouldn’t feel overwhelming or full of guilt. It should feel clear, supported, and aligned with your family so you can move through your days with more ease, more joy, and the confidence that your family is truly thriving.
That’s why I do what I do now! I want to take the guesswork, guilt, and overwhelm out of sleep training.
Today I work with families across the US and worldwide, using methods that are gentle, evidence-based, and adapted to your baby's age, temperament, and your family's values. No cookie-cutter plans. No judgment. Just real support from start to finish that works.

How I can help
Support for every stage of sleep
Whether you have a newborn, a baby, or a toddler, I have a program designed specifically for your child's age and stage.
Newborn Sleep Support
0-3 months
Those first weeks are a blur of feeds, diaper changes, and very little sleep. I'll help you build gentle sleep foundations from day one, so you can rest when your baby rests, and feel confident in what you're doing. And so you can actually enjoy these early weeks instead of surviving them.
Infant Sleep Support
4-18 months
Frequent night wakings, short naps, difficulty settling, this is the stage most parents reach out for help. I'll create a personalised sleep plan that works for your baby's temperament and your family's lifestyle. So you can stop dreading bedtime and start looking forward to evenings again.
Toddler Sleep Support
1.5-5 years
Bedtime battles, stalling, early mornings, dropping naps, toddler sleep comes with its own set of (surprisingly (un)predictable) challenges. I'll help you navigate this stage with calm, consistent strategies that actually stick. So bedtime becomes peaceful, for both of you.

What families say
Real results from real families
These families were exactly where you are now. Here's what changed when they stopped trying to figure it out alone.
She went above and beyond!
"I’m so grateful for Danielle and Gentle Dreamers! Navigating infant sleep can feel so overwhelming, and having her guidance, support, and encouragement made such a difference for our family. She created a thoughtful sleep plan for our baby that felt personalized to our family’s needs, especially with also having a toddler and needing some flexibility in our baby’s schedule from day to day.
She checked in consistently, was always available to answer my questions, and helped troubleshoot along the way. She even went above and beyond to offer additional advice and strategies to help with my daughter’s bottle refusal, which I really appreciated.
Since implementing her recommendations, my daughter is taking longer crib naps, falling asleep more independently, and overall sleep has improved so much. I’m incredibly thankful for Danielle’s help and would absolutely recommend her to any family looking for sleep support for their little one!"

Mom of 13 week old
He sleeps through the night!
"Danielle was such an incredible help in our sleep journey. My son was taking forever falling asleep and waking up to 6 times at night (at 23 months old). With Danielle's guidance and support we improved his sleep and my sanity. He falls asleep in a third of the time he did prior to her help and sleeps through the night. She is kind and friendly. She listens to what you have to say and makes suggestions based on your concerns and what works for your situation. It takes consistency but Danielle is there for you every step of the way."
Annie.
Mom of 23 month old
I would absolutely recommend!
"We are so grateful for the help and support we received from Danielle. Before working with her, our 7-month-old son would only sleep while being rocked or held, co-slept with us every night, and was waking multiple times for bottles throughout the night. We felt exhausted and unsure how to break the cycle.
She gave us a clear and realistic plan that worked for our family, and what we appreciated most was how flexible and supportive she was throughout the process. She modified our sleep plan a few times based on what our family needed and what we felt comfortable with, which made the entire experience feel manageable and most importantly, personalized. We truly felt heard throughout the process, and it never felt like a one-size-fits-all approach.
She was incredibly responsive, encouraging, and knowledgeable every step of the way. We truly appreciated her guidance and expertise. I would absolutely recommend her to any family struggling with sleep challenges!"

Questions?
Everything you want to know before our call
I work with babies and children from newborn through to age 5. Different methods apply at different ages, which is why everything I do is tailored to your child specifically.
Only if that's what you want. I work with a range of approaches, from fully hands-on gentle methods to more structured techniques. We'll talk through all of them on your free call and decide together what fits your family's values and your baby's temperament.
Most families start seeing real results within 1–2 weeks. Some babies take a little longer, depending on age, habits, and the approach we choose. I'll give you realistic expectations on your free call, no false promises here.

It's a 20-minute conversation, no sales pitch, no pressure. We talk through what's going on with your baby's sleep, what you've already tried, and what support would actually help. From there, you can decide if working together makes sense for your family.
Yes, all sessions and support happen online via video call and messaging, so I can work with families anywhere in the world. Everything is designed to fit into your daily life.
Plans always need adjusting as you go, that's completely normal, and it's exactly why ongoing support is built into every package. I'm with you through the whole process, troubleshooting and adapting as we see how your baby responds.
I’ll send you a sleep assessment questionnaire to gather everything I need to create your personalized sleep plan, along with a link to book your first consultation call so we can get started.
