Serving Parents Worldwide!
You’re feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and discouraged because your child isn’t sleeping.
Being perpetually sleep deprived does not have to be your life.
We’ve got you! And we are here to help.
Work With Us
Who We Work With
We work with parents who recognize that their current way of sleeping (or not sleeping) is not working for them. They want to get more sleep for the whole family but they aren’t sure who to listen to or which way to go. They believe that things can be better but are looking for someone to guide them down a path that will be successful and less confusing. Sometimes they find themselves saying, “I just wish someone would tell me what to do!”
We’ll help you whether you have just one child, or many, including multiples! Tell us your worries, your struggles, and hopes for sleep in the future, and we will create a plan just for you to get you there!
What We Do Together
After we’ve worked our magic together, you will experience:
- An easier and more predictable bedtime that includes the success of putting your child into their crib or bed awake, giving them one final kiss, and leaving to allow them to fall asleep all by themselves.
- Overnights where you may never need to step out of your bed to help your child get back to sleep; because now they know how to do this without you.
- Days that include a predictable schedule for napping so you can plan additional activities that are important to you.
- Naps that don’t include excess rocking, bouncing, or feeding your child to sleep.
- More energy and productivity because you are getting at least 7 hours of sleep overnight and your mental health is as strong as ever!
- A renewed sense of teamwork with your partner and empowerment for successfully helping your child learn to sleep their best.

You’ll receive the basic nuts and bolts needed to successfully sleep train your child. This includes a written plan to remove sleep props, and get the overnight sleep and naps you’ve always dreamed of for your child.
Are you a DIY kind of person? This package is appropriate for parents who have done sleep training with us before and are comfortable with limited support.

You can imagine why we thought our son was one of those kids that was just a bad sleeper and we would have to accept our new reality.
After three more months of terrible sleep we decided to try another sleep consultant and were recommended to Leann by a friend.
From the moment I spoke with Leann, I felt hopeful.
Within three nights of working with her, our son began to fall asleep on his own, sleep through the night and take consistent naps. Leann thought of everything and made sure that all the people involved in my son's sleep (me, my husband and other caregivers) had the tools to navigate the sleep plan during our time working together and afterwards.
I can't recommend her enough! She truly changed our lives!
"Working with Carin at Tender Transitions was one of the best decisions we’ve made as parents! Our 4-year old now goes to bed regularly at 7:45 and sleeps through the night until wake up time at 7 a.m., something we never thought was possible.
We now have our evenings back and get much better sleep as an entire family!
We had faced years of sleep issues ranging from multiple nightly wakings to not being able to fall asleep without a parent present. We tried every trick in the book, but they never seemed to work. Carin guided us through a program to address all the sleep issues at once in a positive and gentle manner. Our daughter really responded to the program and now looks forward to our nightly routine. I’ve seen her confidence and cooperation grow in our day to day life as a result.
Carin provided clear and consistent direction that helped us know what to do and address issues as they came up. Our only regret is not having worked with Carin earlier!"
