Success Stories
“Hilary and her Confident Sleepers program have been a HUGE blessing for our family. Our 9-yr-old daughter had literally never slept through the night - had never gone to sleep in her own bed due to extreme anxiety and night terrors. She was terrified of the dark and being alone at night. We were perhaps the slowest success story of all time and needed to start at step 0.25, but after about 8 or 9 weeks of Hilary's gentle coaching and consistent efforts, our girl has now been able to go to sleep in her own bed and stay all night…Our girl's anxiety pops up only about 10% of the time vs every night. The whole family is sleeping better and our girl has much more energy and fortitude through the day at school, at home and in sports. Hilary's program was life-changing for our family. I only wish we'd found her sooner!” - Jasmine, AB, Canada

“Our 8-year-old daughter would come downstairs about 5-10 times an evening, and we’d often find her sleeping on the floor of our room in the morning. She was exhausted and so were we. She was scared to go to bed, and always had nightmares. Hilary explained the procedure to our daughter in a way that she understood; we were diligent, and noticed a huge improvement right away. Within 6-8 weeks, she was sleeping through the night, with no evening visits to us. I cannot stress enough how much this improved the quality of life of our family. Our daughter has learned techniques to self regulate, and she now is a great sleeper.” - Hayley, NL, Canada

“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.” - Tanya, BC, Canada

Our 6-year-old is far more confident, has learned so many tools to help her work through nighttime anxieties (and all anxieties for that matter), and rarely wakes us up at night. Hilary works with you to do what feels right for your family and children, and creates customizable plans to suit your unique challenges and concerns. She doesn't judge, is patient and understanding, and is always available to guide you through the process. We are back to having our evenings to ourselves, and enjoying sleeping FULL nights. We would highly recommend working with Hilary! - Patricia, BC, Canada

“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 with Hilary. I highly recommend any parents needing help to reach out to Hilary.” - Shaun, BC, Canada

Hilary's expertise and guidance were invaluable in helping us establish healthy sleep habits for our (6-year-old) child. Her methods were effective and tailored to our family's specific needs. We were impressed by her professionalism and her genuine desire to help us achieve success. Thanks to Hilary, our household is well-rested and happier! - Sara, BC, Canada

My time zone allows me to help families throughout North America and Europe, but I’ve been known to do late-evening meetings with the occasional Australian kiddo too. ;) Reach out if you need help, wherever you call home.
Since 2015, I’ve helped hundreds of children learn to sleep confidently through the night. I now work exclusively with kids aged 6-12 who struggle to sleep alone, either due to new bedtime worries and fears, or a long-standing habit. My absolute favourite thing is seeing a child’s genuine self-esteem and pride surge from feeling confident and secure in their own beds.
As a Mom of kids aged 9 and 11, I know first-hand the worries and fears that develop in middle childhood and the impact it can have on them when the lights go out. The solution isn’t about discipline, but in helping our kids understand their big feelings and how to manage them, at a pace that’s unique to each and every child.
Drawing on the work of some of the world’s leading experts in child psychology, parenting, reflex integration, sleep, yoga and meditation, and 20 years working in health care, my one-of-a-kind ‘Confident Sleepers’ program will guide your family through every step of helping your child become the calm, secure super sleeper I know they can be.
