Gentle Sleep Coaching and New Parent Wellness with Erica Shane | NYC & Global
More Sleep ~ More Joy ~ More Connection
"I cannot say enough things about this wonderfully kind and professional person. Erica came into our family as a healing, nurturing, and calming presence. We were new parents with all the anxiety and naivete that comes with the gig, and it was a huge relief every single time Erica would offer her extensive wisdom, and kind energy, always making sure to build our confidence as Mom and Dad."

"Before working with Erica, I would spend HOURS bouncing on the ball attempting to get my 5mo to sleep and sometimes it honestly just felt like I was making him more awake and agitated. After just days of support with Erica, he seems to finally be getting "quality" sleep and much more of it! He is so peaceful during his nighttime routine now it’s almost as if he’s enjoying it and knows I’m helping him get the good sleep he needs. Proud to say I don’t feel pressure from others who have done CIO or other sleep training with babies who are 6 months or younger. Erica is truly a sleep magician". Diana
“Before working with Erica, I was so overwhelmed with how much information is out there to read on best methods for sleep coaching. As a new mom that lacked confidence, my phone calls with Erica brought me a much needed sense of peace about what I was up against each day. Erica was highly supportive of my individual journey with my baby and always listened thoughtfully. Her coaching container, including the sleep logging, brought me and my husband an incredible awareness of my son’s sleep (especially how important napping is). She held me accountable and gave me a lot to think about. After our work together, my son’s general sleep improved greatly, and I’m now so much more confident in how we are thinking about our son’s sleep, and our ability to teach him how to sleep on his own (at an appropriate developmental level). That, to me, is the value in working with Erica!” Niki

Tired parent, I got you. I know how hard it is to take the leap to make the changes you desire. I make this as easy as possible: I bring in a warm and steady sense of accountability and I take time to understand the whole picture- not just on day 1 but in all of our days together. I have the unique experience as a veteran birth & postpartum doula, lactation counselor, and sleep coach. I work with a proven evidence-based process that will take you from where you are to where you want to be. Whatever your goals, I got you.
You’ll leave the self-doubt, confusion, tears, and frustration behind. You’ll unearth loads of confidence, clarity and accountability so that you can move through this with grace and ease. I want this for you and I know this for you. How? Because I know firsthand what it’s like to make changes and walk into the unknown. It’s my job to walk through it with you, every step of the way.

Are you exhausted, ready to end bed-sharing? Are you struggling with night weaning and not convinced you are using a gentle approach? Is your child already in a crib but wakes multiple times a night? Do you want to keep certain night feeds but unsure how to navigate the rest?
Are you still bouncing on a pilates ball for hours at a time? Nursing your older baby at every hour? Is your child going to bed too late, or at a different time every night, or running from their bed to your bed at 2am? Are they having a hard time winding down and napping?
Are you getting conflicting advice from friends and parent groups (and forgetting ALL about your intuition)? Do you know there is a way to feel connected to your baby, AND get the rest you need, without the feelings of guilt, competition, and confusion?
Have other methods failed you? Do you want to actually be there for your baby as they learn new sleep skills? Are you ready to step into a method that works?
“Before working with Erica, my 6mo son was nursing to sleep every night and waking up every 1-2 hours, only going back to sleep with more nursing. We were both exhausted and frustrated. I did not want to try cry-it-out, but I was also of the mindset that, given his temperament, maybe he wouldn’t be able to fall asleep on his own and/or sleep through the night until he was much older. Working with Erica’s wonderful guidance and her tailored approach, my son learned to fall asleep independently in just a few nights. I was able to coach my son in a way that was comfortable for me and my son to get the sleep he and I both desperately needed, and I had Erica’s help each step of the way. She is one of a kind and I highly recommend her!” Diana
“Erica is the kind of person who makes you feel comfortable right from the start. She's warm and caring and a natural nurturer. Before she worked with our family, my husband and I were up until ten o'clock most nights putting our two young children to bed. With Erica's patient and steadfast guidance, we persevered and were able to improve our children's sleep schedules across the board. Now both our children are napping consistently, sleeping for longer stretches, and are in bed by 7:30 every night. We are so grateful for Erica's knowledge and compassion and give her our highest recommendation!” Erin
"Erica is a thought leader for all things birth related. Her expertise goes back almost 2 decades. She not only helped my child get to bed...she helped me uncover the parent I wanted to be." Jill
