About me
I'm a pediatric sleep consultant with 20 years of experience as a nanny, a proud mom of two and grandmother of one sweet 2 year old girl. I intimately understand the rollercoaster of parenthood.
The sleepless nights, the endless soothing attempts – I've been there. I get it.
It's this personal experience that fuels my passion to help parents like you navigate the often challenging path to peaceful nights.
At the core of my approach is a commitment to gentle and holistic sleep training. I believe that every child is unique, and there's no one-size-fits-all solution.


"I was skeptical about hiring a sleep consultant, but Mara exceeded my expectations. Her gentle approach and in-depth knowledge of pediatric sleep made all the difference. My child's sleep improved, and our whole family is happier as a result. If you're struggling with sleep, don't hesitate to reach out to Mara!"
- Jennifer Philips | Mom of Toby (6 months old)


My own journey...
Everything began with my own sleep trials and triumphs. My first kiddo was a dream, slept like a champ, no fuss, no drama. I thought, "Yep, I've got this parenting thing down." Then came my second bundle of joy, and oh boy, did she throw me a curveball!
Sleep became this elusive thing, with nights filled with unexpected wake-ups and sleepless marathons. And you know what? That challenging experience fueled my passion to help parents like you navigate through the twists and turns of sleep parenthood. I've been in your tired shoes, and I'm here to share not just professional advice but the genuine understanding of the sleep rollercoaster.
Outside the world of sleep, you might catch me salsa dancing; I've got some moves on the dance floor too! Let's tackle those sleep hurdles together and turn your nights from chaotic to calm.

"Working with Mara was a game-changer for our family. We were sleep-deprived and overwhelmed with our newborn. Her expertise and guidance transformed our nights into peaceful slumber. Our baby is now well-rested, and we are too. Thank you so incredibly much, Mara!"
- Carolina Hernanda | Mom of Emma (12 weeks old)
