Veronica Burns-Moore

I am an expert in child development with a BS/MS in the field and have studied development and family relations to the postgraduate level. I have a background in pediatrics as a certified child life specialist and am currently working as an overnight postpartum doula and sleep consultant. I mainly focus on infants but am experienced with young children of all ages. My approach is evidence-based and attunement-focused. I help families make achievable goals for sleep challenges and love helping them navigate the tougher parts of sleep conditioning and training so that the whole family can get restful sleep.
My philosophy

My approach is rooted in infant/early childhood/perinatal mental health. I have certifications and deep knowledge in these fields— I take pride in helping families reframe their perceptions of sleep challenges to achieve their goals. My approach is rooted in attunement and truly learning about the child’s development while supporting the caregivers in their own regulation.

Case Studies

4-Month Regression
8 month old has always coslept for nights and naps and nursed on demand throughout the night. Family wanted a gentle approach of training her to sleep independently in the crib. Night one she fell asleep independently and was able to sleep an eight hour stretch without waking up. She was able to fall back after the early morning wake up with minimal intervention. Text support was available in real-time and I supported this family as they troubleshooted as baby was waking and learning to soothe herself back to sleep.
