”I always felt supported and Olive made me feel empowered to achieve the goals we’d set out to reach. I also love that Olive drew on her own experience as a mother and postpartum doula.  This made her REAL!”

Being a first time parent was a challenge.  My 3 month old son had a few hurdles and was never a good sleeper.  I reached out and Olive was amazing; she was kind, considerate and attentive.  She was incredibly supportive and explained everything to me in great detail. Olive helped my confidence. We work first with her clean sleep program, where we gently pushed out Matthews feedings at night time, over the next 5 weeks we had him sleeping 11 hours at night. Now I have more time to enjoy my son.

I was at my wits end with my 8 month old twins waking more and more ever night needing a bottle to go back to sleep. Olive helped me and within two nights they were sleeping better and then consistently sleeping through within a couple of weeks. Olive was with me every step of the way. I stuck to her advise and it was spot on. One very happy well rested twin mom right here.

Olive, I just have to say I have never felt more confident that something is going to work in my life ! The way you have explained everything is absolutely amazing and has given me so much confidence to follow through with everything you tell me . This has been one of the best consultations I’ve ever had & the fact that you can tailor a routine for me to work around my other 2 children’s school times is the best news ever. Thank you so much.

I felt at ease with Olive during the time she helped me with my son. The communication and constant reassurance that as a first time mother I was doing a great job. I felt comfortable to communicate with Olive even though I had never met her we correspond via phone, email and text. I thought you may need to physically meet someone for sleep consultation but this worked for me and especially with Covid 19”

I am forever grateful to Olive who has been supporting me throughout the whole process- via phone, text and email. She was referred to me and together (evening consult so my wife could also be on the call) we went through her questionnaire and then she created a personalized plan for us. After just 5 nights  my angel was sleeping through the night. I cannot thank Olive enough. She was so kind, patient and always replied to my questions or concerns within 24 hours. I highly recommend her to any parents out there struggling to get the little ones to sleep through. She’s a god send!”

Hiring Olive was the best decision we could have made when it came to sleep training our 4.5 month old daughter. Prior to working with Olive, our daughter was either being nursed or bounced to sleep and woke up the instant we tried to put her down. I am being quite serious when I say that she only ever slept on a human. This meant I was going to bed when she went to bed, and that I was spending 3-4 hours a day bouncing her in a dark nursery for naps. We  would have continued this but for the fact that my daughter started fighting every nap and every bedtime, and was sleeping terribly. We knew that sleep training was inevitable, but after 2 months of colic, we were terrified. We read a lot of sleep training books, spoke to a few consultants, and conferred with our pediatrician (who recommended CIO). Literally the one and only principle to emerge from the five million different opinions and programs out there is the importance of consistency. And we knew that inconsistency would most likely arise from not having a concrete plan, poor decision making in the middle of the night or during a particularly difficult time, and the fact that, as first time parents, we would be prone to self-doubt and second guessing. Olive was the single most important factor in keeping us consistent. She came up with a clear, flexible and easy-to-follow plan, specifically catered to my daughter and our parenting philosophy. She was astoundingly available to us,  to help us make good decisions based on what was happening in the moment. She was encouraging and supportive every step of the way. Olive truly made us feel like our daughter's sleep and well-being was as important and urgent to her as it is to us.  My daughter has been napping for almost 90 minutes, after going down with barely a peep. She is happier and well rested. The journey wasn't pain free, but we are confident that not a single tear or difficult night was in vain on account of Olive's guidance and support.

It would be an understatement to say that my family thought I was crazy when I decided to hire a sleep consult for my 7 month old. My son was a bad napper only sleeping 20-30 mins max and at 5 months started waking almost hourly where I needed to rock or nurse him back to sleep. I was losing my mind! After only a week my husband was a believer! Working with Olive versus other consultants I spoke to is that she is realistic - I am a mom on the go and the thought of staying home 24/7 in order for my baby to sleep was not an option. I learned with Olive that you do not need to be on a strict schedule in order to achieve healthy sleep habits. Olive was with me every step of the way - the unlimited texting her sleep packages are priceless. I have learned a wealth of sleep knowledge working with Olive and my son who is exclusively breastfed is finally sleeping through the night and puts himself to sleep for all of his naps. I have my sleep back and I have a totally new baby - I cannot thank you enough!!

I was referred to Olive by a friend of mine who had recently used her. She raved about Olive's coaching style and responsiveness and we felt that was exactly what we needed. At the time we had a four month old baby who was co-sleeping and wouldn't sleep anywhere but on me. We also have two older children that were starting to have enough of their mother constantly having a baby in her arms and no space for them. We knew it was going to be a tough transition for baby going from sleeping next to mom and dad every night and nap to his own crib, but Olive gave us a plan and was there with us every step of the way and made changes as needed. She was there all hours and in real time. It was a long first week, but we started to see huge improvement very quickly. After about a week and a half, he was going down for naps and to bed without a peep. She allowed us to lead the way in terms of how much crying there would be and how often he would be fed at night. This I appreciated the most as I never felt I was ignoring or starving him. We are now in a great routine and everybody is happier. Parents are getting rest and have a predictable schedule and the older kids are getting more attention. We also love that we have tools to deal with any regression or sickness. We couldn't have done it without Olive!
