Struggling with your little one's sleep and neither the 'suck-it-up-and-wait' or 'cry-it-out' approaches work for your family? You are in the right place!
Meet Bonnie - Your Denver Baby and Child Sleep Consultant
Hi, I’m Bonnie Dimmick, mom to two sweet but sassy daughters.
I’m a Child Sleep Consultant and Positive Discipline Parent Educator teaching moms and dads respectful parenting and sleep strategies so their babies, toddlers and young children learn to sleep independently.
I help moms and dads get their children sleeping independently and predictably sleeping for nights and naps so they can stop worrying about how nights and naps will go.
Together, we create sustainable independent sleep habits for your children so the whole family can get more sleep, allowing you to be more present and patient while enjoying your children during the day. You’ll find the middle ground to fit your family, while achieving the game-changing results of better sleep, confidence around naps and bedtimes and feeling like yourself again.
Imagine what it will feel like for you to get a good night’s sleep again!
Based in Denver, Colorado, I work with frustrated and exhausted families locally, across the US and around the world. Lack of sleep is leaving them feeling grumpy, stressed out and even more tired each day and they’re at a complete loss and don’t know where to start because neither the ‘suck-it-up-and-wait’ or the ‘cry-it-out’ approaches to sleep work for their families.
If this is you, you’re not alone and I can help.
I’ve been helping exhausted and discouraged moms and dads get their families back to sleep for over five and a half years.
My training and experience includes:
- Member of the Association of Professional Sleep Consultants (APSC)
- Training under one of the top six pediatric sleep consultant programs recognized by the APSC
- Certified Positive Discipline Parent Educator
- RIE® Foundations Theory and Observation Intensive Training on Educaring™, respectful caregiving and parenting in the first 2 years of life
- Training on breastfeeding and sleep, attachment theory, regulation theories and child development and other continuing education through the Child Sleep Institute
I’ve worked with over 450 families to help get their families sleeping well.
I’ve been in your shoes
When my oldest daughter was born, I fell prey to the troubling parenting myth that becoming a mom would mean sacrificing my reliance on, and love, of a good night’s sleep. Then, my baby was struggling with sleep, waking every two hours needing my help to put her back to sleep and not napping for more than 30 minutes during the day.
I knew something had to change and when I found the help we needed, we jumped in with both feet. We were all sleeping better and I was a more patient, compassionate and strong momma for my daughter.
But then, baby #2 entered the world and she was a totally different baby than my first. She opened my eyes to a whole new, much more complex world of approaches to help babies and toddlers sleep better. She helped develop the respectful, connection-focused and holistic approach to sleep that I share with families today.
What would be different for you and your family if you were sleeping better?
- “More patient and present with our kid during the day because we aren't zombies from the night before” - Taryn
- “I finally sleep through the night for the first time in two years.” - Shannon
- “She’s able to fall asleep independently now and bedtime is a much more enjoyable process for all” - Amber
- “We're all happier and healthier thanks to the rest we're getting now!” - Tara
- The only thing I wish we did differently was hire Bonnie sooner. Spend the money mamas, she is worth it! - Becca
