Confident Sleepers

the big kids’ bedtime-anxiety program

It’s heartbreaking when your child has anxiety at bedtime or is unable to sleep through the night. Fear of sleeping alone can limit a child’s social life and self confidence. It can keep you housebound every evening without time to yourself. Often it seems easier to just let them sleep in your bed.

But along with disrupting your sleep, research shows that chronic bed-sharing decreases the total sleep hours a child gets each night, which affects daytime emotional regulation and learning ability. It can even contribute to bedwetting.

That’s why I created the Confident Sleepers Program for kids aged 6-12.

In this 6-week program, we’ll use strategies designed to work with your child’s interests and level of development to help them understand their bedtime fears, develop a true sense of security and kiss their nighttime anxiety goodnight. Here’s what the program includes:

  • A 90-minute zoom meeting with you and your child to kick things off

  • A customized, confidence-building bedtime program

  • 6 weeks of weekly zoom check-ins with you and your child

  • Phone/email check-ins with Mom or Dad whenever needed

  • The investment: $795

    • (or 3 instalments of $265)

  • the result:

    • After about 6 weeks, your child has the confidence and comfort to say goodnight and fall asleep independently, sleep through the night (every night), and wake up rested and feeling proud of themselves.

    • You get a couple of quiet evening hours to yourself and a full night’s sleep (every night!).

My 9 year old son was having difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep without me in the same room; I was at a loss and no longer knew what advice to follow. Hilary was compassionate, and reassuring and I instantly felt at ease with her. She also connected with my son very naturally and made sure that he was comfortable and on board with our plan. Within 4 weeks he was sleeping peacefully and able to self-soothe when upset. I would highly recommend Hilary and wish I had contacted her sooner.

I was at my wits end... My daughter was dealing with sleep anxiety and Hilary gave me tools to get her to sleep calmly, stay in her room and sleep through the night. She always made me feel validated and my daughter too. Now when anxiety comes up, I know how to handle it and my daughter has a much easier time with bedtime.

Hilary was extremely helpful! Our kids, 9 and 7, are much better sleepers now. Hilary was patient, and her advice was grounded in substantial knowledge of the subject of sleep. The kids had fun during their Zoom chats....
