That never sat right with me, and once I was in it myself, it sat right even less. I'm certified through the Center for Pediatric Sleep Management, and I trained through the certification while I was pregnant with my son. So I learned the science and then I lived the 2am version of it at the same time, which changed how I explain everything.
what reasoning-first actually means
Most sleep help gives you the what and skips the why. The problem is that the what falls apart the first time your baby does something the chart didn't predict, and babies do that constantly. So every call I make in a plan comes with the reason behind it, not because you asked for a science lesson, but because the reason is the thing you can actually use when it's dark and quiet and the instruction in front of you doesn't fit the moment. You don't need to become an expert. You need enough of the why that you can read your own baby.
where I hand off
This is the part I want to be loud about. I provide sleep coaching and education, not medical advice. Anything about feeds, weight, reflux, growth, or physical discomfort goes to your pediatrician, every time, no exceptions. That isn't a limitation I'm apologizing for. It's the line that makes the rest of what I do trustworthy.
how I work
Crib Notes is fully virtual, so it doesn't matter whether you're in New York City or three time zones away. Every family gets one custom two-week plan built for one specific child, one call to walk through it together, and two weeks of live text support from me, the person who actually wrote the plan. Not a portal, not a course, not a bot. Me.

tell me about your baby and we will build the plan together, with the reasoning behind every call.
