Hi! My name is Amy Herron. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Child & Youth Care, I am a proud mom of 2 busy, energetic toddlers, and I am a certified Baby-Led Sleep and Well-Being Specialist! I have worked with children, youth, and families in many capacities over my career, including children with neurodiversity, and I have always had a passion for working with kids. I have completed many hours in training on a variety of topics such as attachment, trauma-informed practice, and child development. My journey to being a Baby-Led Sleep and Well-Being Specialist began when my eldest was only a few months old. I was feeling very overwhelmed and overtired, and I turned to the internet where I was immediately bombarded by information. So much of what I read didn’t feel right for me or my baby and I was often left feeling like I was doing the wrong thing. After lots of searching and lots of tears, I was finally able to find a space that aligned with how I wanted to parent and reminded me to trust myself. It started as a search for “how to get my baby to sleep longer” (which resulted in lots of “tips and tricks” that never seemed to work for me or my baby) and turned into discovering a more holistic approach to helping my baby sleep. I was able to grow more confident in myself as a parent and allowed me to find some peace in my parenting journey. My goal is to now help other parents do the same. I want parents to feel empowered in their choices, as well as equip them with information that will inform those choices. There are so many factors that contribute to how a baby sleeps and my role will be to look at all of those factors and help families make changes that feel right for everyone. I will guide families to reach their sleep goals and hopefully find some peace and comfort along the way!
