Infant & Baby Basic
Overview: The infant and baby stage is filled with lots of growth and developmental changes. This package is ideal for tackling independent sleep, establishing appropriate nap schedules, weaning nighttime feeds, and managing sleep regressions. It helps to create consistent routines that encourage healthy sleep for everyone. This two one package provides a personalized sleep plan with daily support. Description: The Infant & Baby Basic Package starts with an initial 15 minute consultation call as a meet-and-greet and to learn about your overall sleep goals. After our call, you’ll fill out an in-depth family questionnaire and log 3 consecutive days of sleeping and feeding.  You’ll have the option of doing a live video tour of the nursery or sending pictures. This information is then used to create an individualized sleep plan with step-by-step directions on how to navigate bedtime, night wakings, routines, schedules, naps, and anything else your little one needs support with. It is tailored to your overall goals. When the sleep plan is complete, we will have a 1 hour call (phone or virtual) to review it together, answer any questions you have, and make sure you are comfortable with it.

Working with Teal was such an great experience. We were really struggling with sleep with our 2.5 year old. Teal was incredibly supportive. I felt like she truly listened to us and understood our particular situation and created a tailor-made plan that felt very specific to us and our needs. She is such a great coach and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. Our daughter is now falling asleep independently and sleeping in her own bed all night. The whole experience was positive for me and my daughter. I honestly can't believe it!!! SO grateful for Teal. Highly, highly recommend!!
