Client Testimonials
"Jen was phenomenal. She was so supportive and offered me assistance with my twin boys. She was always available and worked great with our family. She helped me transition the twins into their own rooms and they are now sleeping through the night with one feeding. She is knowledgeable and was super helpful in the implementation of the plan."
~S. Carrico, mom of 12-week-old twin boys
"Lighthouse is amazing! This is our third child, and her poor sleep habits were puzzling us. Our sleep consultant created a plan and was willing to adjust according to our needs. Having her emotional support was wonderful. Sleep training is hard, and it was so helpful to have someone cheering us on! She was more than willing to support us in any way she could, and it was so helpful!"
~J. Marsh, mom of four-month-old
"Our Lighthouse Doula was phenomenal! We've had a difficult few weeks with our baby, likely tied to a four-month sleep regression, as she pointed out. She was incredibly knowledgeable and unbelievably patient in working with us. Her insights were so relevant to exactly what we were experiencing and she always took the time to provide incredibly thorough explanations, tips and even an instructional video at one point. We were amazed when she also came to help us through a nap session that was the true turning point for us. On top of all that, she was sweet and comforting right when I needed it as a sleep deprived mother :) We left the week feeling prepared and confident to navigate our baby's sleep journey thanks to Lighthouse Doulas. We would absolutely recommend their services. Thank you so much!!"
~ T. Haan, mom of four-month-old
"Jen successfully worked within my gentle parenting philosophy to completely achieve our sleep goals. Her professional advice, consistent support, and respect for where we were made the process painless. I am so amazed at how well her plan worked that I tell everyone I know. Her thorough initial assessment and interview ensured that she had an accurate picture of our sleep situation and she very thoughtfully crafted a plan that was easy and comfortable to follow."
~M. Rutledge, mom of 7.5-month-old
"Jen was absolutely amazing! We have already said, with the next baby, we are calling Jen and getting her services right away! She helped us get Grace on a schedule and walked us through why we were doing what we were doing. She made sure that we were comfortable with the plan at each step. She also helped us get Grace down to no feeds at night (she was at a minimum of six before Jen!). Jen helped us adapt to any issues; she helped us solve a nap pooping problem! We absolutely love Jen! Her communication was so key for the success that she helped us achieve. Grace is a happier and more content baby/toddler since we started with Jen. Her strategies have been amazing. Grace actually looks forward to naps and bedtime now. She knows her schedule and routine and will point to her room when she is ready to go to sleep! I can honestly say, we would not be where we are without Jen! Beyond the sleep plan, Jen has always been so kind, considerate, and goes above and beyond!"
~L. Miller mom of 12-month-old
”Jen was an absolute game changer for our family. We hired her for our three-week-old twins soon after moving to Grand Rapids. We also have a two-year-old daughter and we knew that restorative sleep would be a big issue. Jen not only provided the peace of mind for me to absolutely crash the nights I knew she was coming, but our twins were sleeping 12 hours with one dreamfeed by 10 weeks. I was absolutely astounded and almost sad to see Jen go. She was worth every dime! We love her!"
~M. Evans, mom of 10-week-old twins.
"We consulted with Lighthouse Doulas to help facilitate healthy sleep habits for our two-month-old girl. At the time, she was sleeping 2-3 hour stretches and waking frequently throughout the night. This service is amazing. We felt supported and encouraged. Lighthouse Doulas gave concrete and clear advice on how to effectively settle our baby and keep her comfortable and asleep. Our doula demonstrated soothing techniques. She communicated extremely clearly and documented all of the events of the evening, making it easy to reference them the next day. I was thoroughly impressed with how loving and kind she was; we never hesitated to reach out to ask her questions and she always replied promptly and with advice that proved to be effective. Our little girl is now sleeping 11-12 hour stretches and responding to our soothing techniques. I will forever be grateful for her help during this stressful time."
