Sleep is not a problem to be fixed. It is a developmental skill that is learned. Sleep is the side effect of what I teach and it can only occur in a relaxed and regulated nervous system.
I’m Eileen Henry. I am a RIE® Associate (rie.org) and one of the first “child sleep consultants” in the U.S., with 20 years of experience helping families worldwide achieve peaceful and lasting sleep. When you work with me, you get me — not a trainee or an associate. You also get my unique, effective approach to child sleep, not a method acquired from another expert.
As a sleep coach, I create custom solutions. I work one-on-one with parents and offer personal telephone support. Above all, I am your partner in a process essential to your family’s happiness and health.
My approach is gentle, honest, and realistic. I have created customized sleep solutions with a proven long-term track record. During this time, I have developed the best method for dealing with the child’s natural response when faced with changes. The child becomes an active participant in their own solutions, and the parent can respond lovingly and consistently as they support their child toward new habits.
The common thread of my results?
Compassion and co-regulation.
Crying is the parents’ first concern when making any sleep change. Mine is not a “cry it out” solution. But since crying is inevitable during the transition to better sleep, I teach parents how to calm the cry. My method assures that you and your child maintain and strengthen your bond.
The result is extraordinary. Your baby is sleeping through the night. You, the parent, have supported your child in learning an important life skill that will lead to lifelong well-being. Once the entire family can sleep through the night we thrive!
