🛏️ More predictable naps
💛 Confidence in your parenting decisions
☕ Time to rest and recharge
👶 A happier, well-rested child
🏡 A calmer household
Instead of spending every day troubleshooting sleep, you’ll know exactly what to do and why you’re doing it.
How to fix your baby's sleep?
Sleep improves fast when the method actually fits your baby, and most methods online simply don’t
Sleep isn’t one-size-fits-all.
It’s highly individual, that’s why your baby needs a plan built for them, for their own mix of biology, temperament, development, feeding needs, and environment. As a newborn sleep consultant, my job is to take all of that into account so you’re not guessing or trying to force a method that was never designed for your baby.
A Custom Plan for your baby
You need a plan that matches your child and provides you clear guidance so you are confident applying it at home. I explain more about building routines in this guide on creating a newborn sleep schedule that works.
With a custom plan you and your baby can finally get longer sleep stretches, calmer nights, smoother days, and far less overwhelm for everyone.

Hi, I'm Nefertia (Neffie) Jones.
A medically trained Newborn Care Specialist, Postpartum Doula, and Pediatric Sleep Consultant in Glenview, Chicago with a background in child development, neuroscience, and exercise science.
For over 8 years, I’ve worked as a Newborn Care Specialist and Postpartum Doula, supporting families through the early months of sleep, feeding, and development. I’ve seen how easily parents can end up following advice that doesn’t match their baby’s needs. I remember one family who drove their toddler around for hours every night just to get him to sleep. It wasn’t because they were doing anything wrong, the advice they were following simply wasn’t right for their baby. Seeing these struggles through my work led me to get certified in sleep consulting.
Today, I work with families to identify the real root causes behind their baby’s sleep challenges, looking at the whole baby: biology, feeding, temperament, environment, and development.
My work as a newborn sleep consultant is gentle, and rooted in evidence. I never use pressure or harsh methods. I’ll always help you support your baby in a way that feels right for you and your family, in Glenview, Chicago, or online
What Parents Are Saying ...
After just a few nights of following a personalized plan, many families begin to see meaningful change.
"Hello, just wanted to update you as we had the best night yet. He slept from 7:30-3am woke to feed and was back down within 20 mins and slept until 7 this morning! I feel like a new mum today! So just wanted to say thank you again!"

"Neffie truly helped saved the day! When My wife and I had our little girl, Aria, we were overjoyed! But we quickly became overwhelmed instead! Nefertia came in with a gentle, but professional approach and worked with us to not only help little Aria sleep well, but took steps to make sure we continue outside of her realm of influence. We cannot recommend her highly enough!"
J.P.
"Firstly thank you so much for coming back to me and with this amount of information and tips! You have no idea how helpful I've found this, honestly thank you!
I tried your tips with the blanket and he slept for 3 hours this afternoon in the next to me! he's just gone down in the next to me now and no fight at all again using the blanket trick! can't believe how one simple change was so effective!! will be trying the others tomorrow too during the day. So once again thank you so much!
Also forgot to say he's gone down in the next to me in the bedroom! I'm in a bed! Feels like forever!"

FAQ
Do you use cry-it-out or anything I might be uncomfortable with?
No. I use a gentle and responsive approach, and I would never do anything that goes against your comfort level. If you'd like to understand more about how I approach sleep training, you can read more in this article: Effective Techniques for Infant Sleep Training
Will this work if my baby only sleeps when being held, rocked, or fed?
That's normal, I will help guide you to make your baby sleep independently.
How long does it take to see results?
Every baby is different, but many families start seeing progress within a few days when the plan is followed consistently.
