About Me

Hi, my name is Michelle Read and I am a certified Sleep Sense™ Consultant and mother of two grown boys.

I experienced sleep struggles early on especially with my firstborn. He cried a lot and every time he did, I fed him. It is a wonder he didn’t pop from being overfed! I also remember standing over the crib holding the pacifier in his mouth, praying that he would just fall back asleep as I was so sleep deprived and lacked any access to someone knowledgeable to help my baby sleep. Those early days were hard and because I was not getting adequate rest, I felt overwhelmed most of the time. But what I have learned over the years is that it doesn’t have to be that way. Your child can learn to sleep well and independently!

I was an elementary school teacher for over 24 years and realized soon after that I wanted to still work with children, somehow. I have been a tutor, nanny, and am currently a night nanny for newborns. As I work with the parents of little ones, they continue to ask me, “How can we get our baby to sleep better and longer?” So, I researched answers to those questions and learned there is a whole science to baby sleep and that I could train and become a pediatric sleep consultant. So that is exactly what I did!

I absolutely love helping families so they can thrive!

I largely work remotely to help babies and children across the United States to learn self-soothing habits to get the best sleep of their lives.

Let me help you on this journey!
