Testimonials | Slumber and Soar

"I am beyond grateful for my experience with Nicole at Slumber and Soar. “Life changing” is the best way to describe my family's experience. I was feeling extremely lost, resentful, and worst of all, down on myself. I had tremendous guilt that my baby was not getting the sleep she and I both desperately deserved.

I tried getting my daughter to sleep independently on and off since she was 6 months old. She cried incessantly. I decided my sleep mattered too so I pulled her back into bed with me. She was sleeping in our bed, until she was 14.5 months. My husband ended up sleeping in another room, because there just wasn’t enough room for everyone. After a while of getting sleep, only because she was in bed with me, she started waking every 2-3 hours again crying, wanting to sleep on top of me, or wanting a bottle. I couldn’t take the sleepless nights any longer. That’s when I connected with Slumber and Soar. Nicole wrote us a custom sleep plan tailored to our needs with very detailed instructions.

Within a couple days, my daughter was going into her own crib in her OWN room. Not only that, she was sleeping through the night for 10-11 hours without waking or needing a bottle. She finally was taking a full nap! Not a 20-45 min nap, she slept 2 whole hours in her own bed!!

The best part about Slumber and Soar is the consistency of support she provided. Not only did she provide a sleep plan based on my comfort level and the needs of my daughter, she checked in multiple times a day to make sure things were going okay and more importantly, that I was feeling okay! I wouldn’t have been able to get through this sleep transition without her support, encouragement, and holding me accountable."

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Nicole and Slumber and Soar and I cannot express enough how positively it has impacted our family's life.

From the moment I connected with Nicole, it was evident that she was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about her work. Her commitment to improving my son's sleep was unwavering.

What impressed me the most was her personalized approach. She took the time to understand his daytime habits, bedtime routines and previous approaches we took to aid our son's sleep. This level of individualized attention made me feel truly heard and valued as a client. Nicole created a customized sleep plan tailored to his specific needs, which was both practical and easy to follow.

Throughout the process, her support was exceptional. She was readily available to answer my questions and provide guidance every step of the way. The encouragement and positivity helped me stay motivated and committed to the plan, even when it felt challenging.

The results have been life-changing. My son is now experiencing a better, more restful sleep, and his overall well-being has improved significantly. We all wake up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, ready to tackle each day with a positive attitude!

I can't recommend Nicole Bullard and Slumber and Soar highly enough. Her professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for her clients have made a remarkable difference in my life. If your child is struggling with sleep issues, I strongly encourage you to reach out to Nicole– it's an investment in your family's health and happiness that is truly worth it! ”

"Nicole is a literal angel on earth- because of her my babies have gotten the sleep they need and I was able to heal a lot quicker mentally and physically after each birth. I don’t know what kind of mother I’d be today without her holding my hand through those lonely sleep deprived times. My son was 5 months old when I reached out to Nicole- I was deep into a dark postpartum hole. My son was up every two hours during the night and literally took 15 minute naps. I just couldn’t take it anymore. I was nervous to sleep train and didn’t know if I would be able to do it, but I got to a point that I was desperate for sleep and willing to try anything. Nicole had such a gentle and reassuring approach. She laid everything out and I know exactly what to expect. My son was sleeping after ONE NIGHT and in return napping better during the day. Nicole was knowledgeable and reassuring, which is everything I didn’t know I was needing. Turns out the lack of sleep was the reason I was struggling so badly mentally. With us both sleeping better, I felt more confident to be the mom that I’ve always wanted to be! Then came my daughter Emily, who was a great sleeper from the day she was born until that 9 month sleep regression hit! Nicole gave me a much needed refresher and sure enough I had my sleeping baby back. A couple years later my daughter Emily was diagnosed with autism and we were having much different sleep issues than we had ever dealt with before. I wasn’t sure if this is something that Nicole could help us navigate, so I called her and felt so relieved to find out that she was very familiar with not just infant sleep patterns, but specializes in children with special needs as well! The things she taught me in just that one call put so many pieces together for me. She customized a plan and for the first time in months I had hope that I may actually sleep again! Emily is now 6 and I am happy to report that, thanks to Nicole, I have 3 happy, healthy, SLEEPING (all night long) children! I can’t recommend enough reaching out to someone for help with your child’s sleep- I could never have done it without the guidance of Nicole."
