Lindsay King

I’ve spent more than 20 years working with babies and supporting families through the early years of parenthood. My experience as a Newborn Care Specialist, Postpartum Doula, and Pediatric Sleep Consultant has given me a deep understanding of infant development—and just how overwhelming sleep can feel when you’re in the middle of it.

I was drawn to sleep work because I saw how often parents were left feeling confused by conflicting advice or worried they were doing something wrong. I wanted to offer a different kind of support—one that helps parents understand their baby’s sleep while giving them the tools and guidance to make decisions that feel right for their family.

My approach is solid, individualized, and rooted in realistic expectations for infant and child sleep. I meet families where they are, consider their baby’s temperament and developmental needs, and create a plan that feels both manageable and sustainable.

Most importantly, my goal isn’t simply to help babies sleep better. It’s to empower parents to navigate sleep with confidence, so they walk away feeling more knowledgeable, supported, and capable long after our time together ends.

I love working with families who want better sleep but also want an approach that feels responsive, supportive, and aligned with their parenting style. You don’t have to figure it all out on your own—I’m here to support you through it!
My philosophy

My goal isn’t just better sleep—it’s helping you understand your baby or toddler, feel confident in the choices you’re making, and have the tools to navigate sleep long after our time together.

Case Studies

Reducing night feeds and building independent sleep at 5 months
5-month-old waking nearly every hour overnight and feeding throughout the night to return to sleep. We focused on strengthening daytime feeds, creating an age-appropriate sleep schedule, and gently reducing the feed-to-sleep association while keeping appropriate overnight feeds in place. Using a gradual, responsive approach, we helped baby build independent settling skills at bedtime and throughout the night. Within two weeks, night wakings and overnight feeds had significantly decreased, baby was sleeping longer stretches, and the parents felt confident responding to wakes without automatically relying on feeding.
Navigating the 4-month regression without feed-to-sleep
4-month-old who had previously been a great sleeper suddenly began waking every 45–60 minutes and relying on feeding to fall back asleep. We focused on navigating the 4-month sleep regression by adjusting her daytime schedule, strengthening full daytime feeds, and gently helping her learn to settle without feeding at every wake. Within two weeks, she was falling asleep more independently, sleeping longer stretches overnight, and waking primarily when she genuinely needed to feed. Her parents walked away with a better understanding of their baby’s changing sleep needs and the confidence to navigate future sleep disruptions.
