My husband doesn't think coaching is necessary. How do I explain that I need support?
I think this question can best be answered by a Dad. A father that was a former client, asked me if he could do anything in appreciation of my work with his wife and daughter. I shared with him how many Husbands are skeptical, and not supportive when their wives are asking for help. I knew it would be of great value if he could share a little about his experience, from his point of view.
He sent me the following note:
When my wife suggested we hire a sleep coach I thought she was crazy! If you are a father and your wife is asking for this service, trust me, she is at her wit's end. Please say yes! The support and changes that take place are beyond what you can really imagine right now. I am so grateful I listened to my wife. Everyone is getting so much more sleep in our home and it has changed every aspect of our marriage and family life.

Do you only work with babies or can you help me with my older child too?
Absolutely. We work with families at all stages. From pregnancy through school age children.
+
What is your success rate and how do I know if coaching will work for my child?
Since it is not possible to know with absolute certainty, how a child will respond, our role is to provide daily support to families, as we make adjustments to current sleep habits.
Obviously there is a long list of factors that we have no control over, including; temperament, current sleep habits, health issues, parenting styles, consistency and family dynamics. Even though we have no influence over many factors we still have a success rate that is well over 95%.
We believe our very unique coaching support, is the reason we have so many happy families and an extremely high success rate. You will find there is no substitute for having an experienced expert, to problem solve, give guidance, and answer individual questions about your child’s unique needs.
Our testimonials share a wide variety of ages and parenting styles that we serve.
If you are looking for dramatic and positive changes in the shortest amount of time possible, then you have found your answer, with our coaching.

How do I know if I should make the investment in hiring a sleep coach, for my family?
There is not a price that can be put on the immense physical and emotional toll exhaustion and sleep deprivation can take on a family. Coaching is a very short term investment for a priceless long term gain, as our families have shared in thier testimonials!
Your family probably has strollers, car seats, swings, carriers, educational toys, adorable outfits, and a lovely nursery for your little one. At this very moment you would sell off the rocking chair and bouncy seat, if it meant you could get even ONE, full night of sleep.
You have probably realized that all the gifts received and money spent on these items are of little value when the quality of your life is so dominated by sleep deprivation. When your whole family dynamic is affected by Mom's chronic exhaustion, there are few things you could invest in that have greater value, than a happy well rested family.
+
Do you work with multiples and siblings?
We work with the unique challenges of multiples and siblings frequently. We know that when one member of the household is having sleep difficulties this almost always affects other family members. We see our role as assisting the whole family to learn healthier sleep habits.
+
How long will it take before I start seeing changes in my child's sleep habits?
Our philosophy is that one method does not work for all children. So the time will vary depending upon the method you choose and your baby's age.
Each baby has their own temperment and unique sleep issues that can contribute to the rate of the progress. In most cases we see a dramatic improvement within the first week and for the vast majority of our families they are thrilled with the results after just two weeks of working together.
+
Can I implement the plan without being coached in person?
Absolutely...... With Ruby Sky Coaching's guidance we do not have to be physically in your home in order for you to feel completely supported implementing your sleep plan. We work with the vast majority of families over the phone and with email support. We have the same tremendous results as we do with families that choose home visits.
+
