Our little one was fussy and cried what felt like all the time and he had a crazy “witching hour.” Our evenings were a mess of going back and forth to my son’s room to try to get him to sleep. On a good night he would wake up 2-3 times per night and naps were only really accomplished in his stroller because he would only sleep 30 mins in his crib after 45 mins of trying to get him to sleep. We were exhausted, so when he was 12 weeks old and 13 lbs we called Vivian.

The first day, he slept 5 hours in his crib for his naps and almost 12 hours through the night with only one wake up and now at 14 weeks we is taking consistent naps in his crib and sleeping through the night and asleep in bed by 6:30PM. Vivian called everyday to check in and make tweaks and was a huge support! We finally have our nights back and our son is a completely different baby - he rarely cries and is so happy. We are so incredibly grateful to Vivian.

Our daughter did not know night from day and would wake up every three to four hours regardless of the clock....Vivian met with us and gave us a plan of attack that was appropriate for our family and my husband's hours. She followed up every morning and was an amazing support system for us. It's not easy!

After sticking to Vivian's plan and talking things through with her we had our daughter sleeping 7 to 7 at 10 weeks. It only took us one day. She has yet to deviate from the sleeping pattern and she will be 6 months old next week!"

At 6 months our baby was waking four times a night…Vivian came to my family's rescue. In two hours on a Saturday morning she gave us a plan of attack to get my baby sleeping, and give us peace of mind.

Like a great coach, she was right by my side until the baby was sleeping through the night. The results have been amazing! By the second night the baby was sleeping through the night. She is such a different baby, calm and peaceful - she even sleeps more during the day.

…I wish I had called Vivian sooner. Vivian is smart and knowledgeable, but more than anything she is a voice of wisdom, kindness and compassion. She really understands babies and mothers and I know she really cares. I STRONGLY recommend Vivian for anyone who needs help with any part of their baby's development."

I highly recommend Vivian Sonnenberg to new families looking for assistance in helping their babies to sleep. Vivian provides support, warmth and experience that gives new parents the confidence they need to help their babies establish healthy sleep habits. We have received lots of positive feedback from new moms who have utilized Vivian's services and are now sleeping much better!

Our three month old son was having sleep issues... Our family was exhausted and the tension in the house was thick. After a sleepless night we made a call to Vivian. Vivian is a true miracle worker. In just 5 days she had Teddy on a schedule, showed us how to get him to sleep without walking, bouncing, etc. including helping take a bottle which he had refused for a long time. Our time with Vivian, albeit short, was quite special and I urge anyone considering her to hire her without delay.

When our daughter, Lindsay, saw Vivian for the first time, I couldn't believe how excited and happy she was. Up until that point, she had never been friendly with someone other than her Dad and me. Vivian really has a gift. Babies can feel it too! Lindsay is a totally different baby now. She is taking the bottle, doesn't cry in the car anymore, naps regularly, is friendly to strangers and is a much happier little girl. Thank you Vivian for giving us our life back!

My baby rarely cries and seems happy to go to bed for naps and at night. She begins to smile when I start our bedtime routine and babbles happily in her bed until she falls asleep. I can't believe this is my baby! Vivian helped me to feel more confident in deciding what my baby needs and I feel more in control and competent as a parent. I have learned so much from Vivian through this process and I thank her for all her support and time spent on the phone.

She checks in frequently to address questions, while providing comfort and support during this transition. She truly cares about her clients and works with you to make sure it is a success."
