Sleep Savvy

The first couple nights with the sleep savvy Online Course we had a bit of protesting and your email gave me the confidence. Any crying never lasted more than a couple of minutes and then she promptly went to sleep. And the subsequently sleep has been much better with fewer wakings! Thank you!

I really like your philosophies and approach to parenthood and will no doubt be back to get more packages when we reach the relevant stage in development!!

I wanted to say Thank you! We have a great sleeper at 4 months! Your baby sleep class was more helpful than all of the other baby prep stuff we did. It wound up being more valuable to us than our childbirth class. I think people should trade back all of the onesies and receiving blankets and get to this class. LOL.

Moorea! Thank you so much for having that special call with us. You’re right, I think I needed some help with consent around my body and boundaries and it was making sleep a bigger challenge than it needed to be. We feel more confident and our quality time is better because we are not so exhausted!

Elizabeth and Dave, Cape May NJ

I feel like the happiest person on earth right now! No nursing, no carrying, no rocking just sleeping. Thank you so much for the sleep plan and thank you for being so helpful and supportive!

Christina, Vienna Austria

I was so relieved to get into this course and realize we could still co-sleep and nurse but not be awake every hour! Working on that balance of flexibility and rhythm has been key! Thank you!

This process has been surprisingly intimate and lovely. I thought I’d be fearing bedtime but instead I feel eager to learn with my daughter. All these changes we’ve made have surprisingly felt rooted in love and compassion and respect! Thank you so much, Moorea!

We did it! Putting her down got easier then wakes got easier now she slept through! It was so much less traumatic than I thought!

Tamayo, San Francisco, CA

I can’t believe the transition from our bed to his floor mattress in his own room went so well and so quickly! Thank you so much for the plan we worked on together. Thank you for the right words to help him understand the change. I think it saved me so much grief.

I had been dreading that moment for a year and then it was suddenly over.

Amelia, Oakland CA mom to 17mo boy

He slept 8pm-6am. Hiring you has dramatically improved the quality of my life!

Betsy, Vermont

Thanks so much for the tips in the workshop! Things have been going well here! My sister is visiting with her 3 1/2 month old guy and is really struggling with his sleep regression so it has been awesome to share with her my experience!
Thanks again!​

I feel so good. We are all sleeping through till 6:30 and there is a noticeable difference in all of our moods.

I just want to say thank you times a million. In just these three days I now have my life back and she is a champion sleeper!!

Thank you very much for this detailed plan. Our little girl is happily sleeping and without Cry-it-Out!  I felt like a new person b/c I hadn’t had that much sleep in a row in over a year.  I even started having dreams again! Thanks so much for your help. I honestly feel like a different person!

Kimberly, Seattle WA

I took your sleep savvy class last Saturday. She was waking at night frequently and usually nursing or rocking to sleep. We implemented your course Saturday night and it has worked since to help her sleep 8-9 hrs at a time. Still nursing, still bed-sharing!

We made all the changes – with where she sleeps and with feeding and calmly attending to her in only the ways in our Sleep Savvy plan. We are down to one waking and if she cries too long we might hum a little to calm her or rub her lovie on her cheek for a bit. I’ve seen such improvement these last few days that i can hardly believe it. I am almost scared to write it because I don’t want to jinx myself.

Patrizia, New York

Everyone told me it was Cry It Out or don’t sleep till she’s 5. I never knew a sleep coach would work with parents who want to co-sleep and breastfeed after a year. Thank you so much for working with our individual needs and helping me get twice the sleep I was getting!

Sara, Los Angeles, CA

Thanks Moorea! We did go ahead with “turkey,” sleep plan you gave us and it worked like a charm – after 2 not-too-bad nights, that is. Totally worth the effort and the investment!

Emma, mom to 17-month girl, Seattle WA

It took ONE night. She sleeps in the crib now from 9-6:45 like a CHAMP. THANK YOU!!!!!!

Things have been going really well with Max. He is going to bed around 7:30 pm with minimal crying. Even better, he’s been sleeping straight through until about 4:30 am. Thanks for all your help! It’s unbelievable that a week ago, Max was still sleeping with us and waking up multiple times a night. Wow! I only wish we had contacted you sooner!

Rachel, Seattle WA

Our sleep work with Leo went so well that I never needed to call back for our second call I guess I will save it to ping you about gentle discipline!

Thank you so much for your advice!

Alex, Oakland CA

Bedtime has been amazing- she pops herself off the boob and wants to go in her crib- she had never wanted to go in her crib during the day before. I feel good that she isn’t traumatized by the early morning struggles either- the last round of CIO we had tried led her to be anxious as we even approached her crib!

Elizabeth, mom to 9mo girl, Oakland CA

After a year of feeling totally desperate and feeling like NOTHING was working to help this baby sleep, I do see major improvements in the last few weeks! Thank you!

Savvy Gentle Discipline

I was just referring back to the worksheet that you sent when we did our amazing phone consult with you on gentle discipline with our son. We have peace! It’s been so very helpful, so thank you again.

Catherine, Seattle WA

My husband and I got a lot out of your discipline class and we could not have taken it at a better time.  Now that [she] is 15 months, we are finally using all of the tools and communication is going really well!

Lilah, New York, NY

The Discipline workshop gave me clear ideas about what to expect for the preschool age, and a few guidelines plus specific tips on how to handle disagreements. I also like having a frame in which to look at this age. I liked the emphasis on language, and emphasis on a general approach, symbolized in the time-out/ time-in scenario.

Kaye, Mom to preschooler Portland, OR

We have been using the techniques taught by Moorea in the Gentle Discipline class and they have worked wonders. I feel confident that I’m doing the right thing with how I gently discipline my 2 year old.

Reema, Seattle WA

I would have paid 10 times what you charged for the gentle discipline course. I think I’d bought 20 books and I was only getting more and more confused. We started implementing the boundaries and helpful phrases and I suddenly had a new 2 year old and I’m now confident in my parenting even in public! Haha! Thank you!

Taking the Plunge Online Potty Program

Another morning pee in the potty. Hot damn, Moorea! Dry at night. How did this happen so fast?!

Kim, Olympia WA

I just wanted to share the good news that C. had his first fully-potty trained day last week. It was fantastic! I have to say that having even an almost potty trained child at 13 months-old blows my mind. He’s even been telling me when we’re on the go that he needs to potty. Thanks so much for your help and support.

Annie, Seattle WA

Thank you for your continued support and concern and helping us finally solve our potty challenge. Your spirit is so generous. I hope one day our paths will cross, so that I may give you a real hug for being by mine and my husband’s side throughout this challenge. You are a gem to us, and we will always think of you fondly.

Angela, Los Angeles CA

Moorea was fabulous last night with potty help and coached me through helping D get out what was backed up gently, respectfully, and with D’s involvement and participation.

Jo, Wisconsin

Jazzie had another poop on the potty! Thank you! We are so excited.

L, mom to 17month boy

Her potty learning has actually been a great bonding time for us, especially as she becomes increasingly mobile. Everyone at her ‘baby college’ class always asks how she got so great at pottying so soon, and while a lot of it is her, I really credit and thank you.

Sarah, Seattle, WA

She’s peeing in her potty already!!! Thank you!!

Karin, mom to 13mo girl

Thank you for the incredibly beneficial phone call! He pooped. He peed. Such a triumph! You are such an authentic, special person. You are a God-send!

Ange, Ontario Canada

HI Moorea! M. is proud to say that she is 100 percent diaper free now and really excited about it! Your suggestions were extremely helpful and we used the school break to really get into the groove. She is even in regular undies at night!

Thanks again!

Sara, Berkeley CA

With our second child now, I was just referring back to the potty handout that you sent with we did the potty workshop with you. It’s very helpful, so thank you again!

Catherine, Seattle WA

Thank you for helping us realize our sleep challenges were really gentle discipline challenges and helping us have a clear plan for dealing with all of the fighting of every boundary that Z was doing. It never occurred to me the fixing daytime challenges would help our sleep but it has tremendously and I now have such great communication with my tiny person.

Jennifer, Baltimore MD

Moorea has an uncanny ability to connect with children, create a safe and loving environment, great communication, and tremendous skill in getting children on track emotionally and behaviorally. She is one of a kind and we feel lucky to have her in our lives.

Elizabeth, Seattle WA (mother of 3, start-up CEO)

We need to thank you for being our 3rd partner in parenting. You have gotten us through major tantrums, communication challenges, a forever bedtime and night waking, the picky eating problem of the century and now feeding challenges with a second baby. You have to make an app so everyone can have you as a parenting partner in their pocket!

Magi, San Francisco CA

So now I have done all three of your courses now and hope you write the books because I want to bring them to baby showers! I feel really secure in my parenting choices now and doing what is right for our child and our family instead of what everyone else was telling us. I’m remembering really important things you said in the moment when I really need to recall them! Such helpful tips!
