Gentle Sleep Coach - Happy House Parenting Gentle Sleep Coaching

Hi! I’m Ashley. Founder of Happy House Parenting.

I am a mama of three beautiful and busy kids! I’m a Certified Gentle Sleep Coach®, “Oh Crap” potty training expert, Holistic Health Coach, yoga instructor and recently added a sound healing certification to my tool box. I have volunteered for local parent support group- PEPS (Program for Early Parent Support) and love volunteering in my children’s classroom. I continue to stay on top of the most cutting-edge sleep work and have attended “Sleeposium” the past three years. I love learning and sharing my insights with families.

I couldn’t wait to start my family. When I got pregnant, I immediately went into research and planning mode. I meticulously picked out all the best baby products for my registry. I researched Doulas, signed up for Hypnobirthing classes. I was READY!

Then my son was born…

Feeding issues, slow weight gain and no sleep became my reality. I was exhausted and frustrated.

I got back into research mode and tried to figure out everything I could about infant sleep. It was just so overwhelming—sifting through mom blogs, sleep charts and the advice of well-meaning friends. I had a new sleep book arriving daily… new swaddles… I was constantly on the lookout for the “magic” sleep cure. I found most baby sleep training methods too rigid and outdated.

My road back to good sleep was a rocky one for sure.

Then I heard about sleep coaching. At this stage I had tried everything else and I felt I had nothing to lose, so I engaged the services of a sleep coach.

My Gentle Sleep Coach helped me understand what was developmentally normal for my baby, and together we came up with a personalized sleep plan for my son. This was a game changer for our family.

With the birth of my second son I felt better equipped from the start, but as it turns out not all babies are the same!

And the journey continues with the birth of my third child in 2023. My water unexpected broke at 29 weeks- while boarding a flight to Cabo! Luckily I was able to deboard and head straight to the hospital. A two-week hospital stay, emergency c section and a 5 week NICU stay was something I could never have prepared for especially since my first two pregnancies and births were pretty uneventful. Navigating the NICU and bringing home a healthy, but teeny baby was a challenge. With my daughter the importance of sleep was top priority as she needed consistent routines and extra sleep to help her grow and develop.

Testimonials

It has been an absolute pleasure working with Ashley! Before starting her training, our little Rowan was waking up every 1-2 hours at night and would hardly ever nap. With Ashley's help, we were able to move her from the bassinet to the crib (without a pacifier!) and now she sleeps through the night! She also takes 3 restorative naps during the day which makes her much happier during her time awake. This has made mom and dad much happier too.

Ashley’s methods work. She designed a sleep plan specific to our family’s needs, and we have been so impressed with the results. When we needed to make changes, Ashley was quick to help make adjustments. She is encouraging and helps you through every step. I’m so glad we reached out to her! Thanks again for everything.

Lindsey and Vince (parents of 7-month-old)

It was great to work with Ashley, and I highly recommend her for help with your child's sleep! My 18-month-old was used to being rocked or driven to sleep and was waking multiple times in the night. Ashley helped me to create a consistent schedule for my son and a sleep training plan. My son can now put himself to sleep without my assistance and is sleeping through the night! Ashley was there every step of the way with encouragement and assistance when needed. I am so glad I was able to work with Ashley, and wish I would have contacted her sooner!

Crystal and James (parents of 18-month-old)

Ashley was amazing! Our 6-month-old was up every hour to only once a night. And then within a month, she was sleeping through the night completely! Everyone seems so much happier and at ease. Ashley’s plan was well thought out, easy to follow, and most importantly followed our family values. Not only did she give me the confidence, but the education to back up why we were doing what we were doing. I will be forever grateful. She has a gift to help families find their overall well-being and harmony. Thank you, Ashley!
