Hi Dawnn, first of all, your prospective new clients should know that you were a godsend to me, and having not met you, I think I would have stopped at once child, and been crazy by now. Instead I have two very well adjusted, children, one 3 year old, one 2 year old, BOTH sleep 2 hours in the afternoon, and sleep 12 hours from 730pm to 730am! The question I would like to ask, is can you give us some tips on helping parents with newborns that have their day and night mixed up?

Hi Dawn,
Great new website! Our son is still sleeping well, but my newest challenge with our 15 month old is getting him to eat vegetables! I have tried liquifying them and hiding it in juice, making a puree' and hiding it in sandwiches and numerous other ways, but he is not eating a single veggie yet! Any suggestions?

Your new website looks great, Dawnn.
I have a question regarding travel and sleep. Our family vacation is quickly approaching and we have just settled into good long naps during the day, thanks to your schedule and sleep plan. I am afraid travel will mess it all up. Lorelai will be sleeping in a 'playpen' for 15 nights. Any tips on how to keep bedtime similar and what I can do to reduce the crying because it isn't what she is used to? Thank you and take care. Shereen

Hello Dawnn, what a great website. It looks very interesting and welcoming. You helped me out 2 1/2 yrs ago with my twins and I thank you so much. They are still basically on the same schedule that you put them on to this day!!!! I do have a question though, as of 6 months ago, my daughter started waking up frequently in the night and now not only does it every night and cries her eyes out for a looooong time (as i try and let her cry it out), unfortunatley though she shares a room with her twin brother who use to sleep through it but now is woken up too and gets very upset. Moving her to another room is not an option either. She wants to sleep with me as she did for 3 nights in October when we went on a trip. Now she wants to do it all the time. After getting woken up many times in the night, I end up finally letting them both in now to my bed so that we can all at least get some sleep. I don't know what to do anymore. Any suggestions??? I really don't want them sleeping with me and I know a lot of people do this but I don't want it. Thanks and good luck.

I have been so impressed with Dawn's service and most of all her continuing support. After my service with her, she was readily available with tips for any new issues I had. Her wisdom and support is unfaltering. Her techniques are superb. I would recommend her to anyone as she has such a comforting nature. Thanks Dawn for everything especially the strength and confidence to implement stradegies for finally getting some sleep!
