Success Stories

Stephanie helped us (all!) get more sleep! She listened carefully and guided us towards the best plan for our family. She was proactive and attentive for our weeks together, walking the fine line between telling us what to do and giving us the tools to figure it out. She helped us celebrate the successes and never made us feel bad when we missed the mark. We would have been more likely to sleep train our older two had we had Pillowhead!

Stephanie gave us our nights back with an individualized plan for our baby to sleep independently through the night. Baby now successfully sleeps through the night thanks to the strategies and information we learned from our experience with Stephanie. 10/10

Ben with 11 month old baby

Stephanie helped our house feel normal again. I was having a very difficult time getting my 2nd child on a solid schedule and sleeping well (she was waking every 1-2 hours in the night, and only napping for 30 minutes, maybe a little longer if you held her). This led to an over tired fussy baby, an exhausted mom, a dad just trying to keep the toddler happy, and a toddler who just wanted to hang with mom. I was hesitant to pay for sleep training. I didn't have issues getting my first to sleep well, why did I need help with the baby? I am in all the Facebook groups, follow all the sleep consultants on Instagram and read lots of sleep blogs but still couldn't really figure it out. My mom gifted me Stephanie's services to help me get some sleep. Stephanie and I chose a gentle approach to sleep training, and it worked! Social media and blogs are good but having someone who gets to know your family, your routines, your lifestyle, and is there to support you through it all is amazing. Being able to text Stephanie at night and have her cheer me on was amazing. She helped support us in not only sleep training but doing so through sickness and moving. Stephanie truly feels like a friend now. I often text her little updates on everyone's sleeping because she helped us so much and I know she genuinely cares! We went from the baby waking every 1-2 hours and needing me to get back to sleep to now sleeping 8-9 hour stretches at night with a plan to wean the night feeding and get us a true full night's sleep at almost 9 months old. If I could give more than 5 stars I would! Thank you Stephanie!

Katie with 8 month old baby

As a new parent, I felt like I was fighting a losing battle trying to get my newborn to sleep every night. Newborn sleep training is one of those topics you don’t fully appreciate until you’re deep in the trenches of sleepless nights! Stephanie provided gentle, developmentally appropriate guidance and a tailored sleep schedule to fit our needs. Stephaine guided us in establishing simple routines—like consistent wake windows, soothing pre-nap rituals, and understanding sleepy cues—made our days smoother. It didn’t magically make my newborn sleep through the night (no program can promise that), but it absolutely improved the quality of sleep for everyone. The biggest win wasn’t just better sleep; it was feeling like I understood my baby’s needs. Instead of guessing, I had a framework that helped me respond calmly and consistently. I will be reaching out again once my baby is ready for sleep training.

Stephanie was great to work with she was super knowledgeable and made it less stressful for us. She was readily available when we needed her. I am happy with how our journey worked out for my 13 month old.

Kendra with 13 month old baby

Stephanie was a great resource as a sleep consultant! She was super responsive to all of our questions, very knowledgeable about sleep and sleep training strategies, and we are having much better nights as a a result. I would highly recommend Stephanie to others!

Dominic with 3 year old

I highly recommend Dr Stephanie with Pillowhead Sleep Training if you’re looking for support getting your little one to sleep through the night. My 14 month old was a great sleeper until 9-12 months when all the transitions & new skills & teeth really threw things out of wack. I was trying all the things & am so grateful a friend recommended Pillowhead Sleep Training! Stephanie responded almost instantly & fit us into her schedule very quickly. She listened & helped us make small tweaks to our schedule that has made all the difference. Sitting in the consult with my husband was also super helpful in getting us both on the same page again.

Since implementing the new (& very reasonable) schedule Stephanie curated around our lifestyle and existing routine, our LO has been sleeping through the night again!!! 8/8:30pm to 7/7:30 am!

I cannot recommend her enough! Whether you’re in the greater Madison, Wisconsin area or afar, she has been so incredibly helpful! So grateful to Pillowhead Sleep Consultants!

Christine with 14 month old

Stephanie was wonderful to work with she was knowledgeable and compassionate. She was able to provide us with the tools and external support we needed to help our child learn to feel safe and comfortable in her own bed.

Cassie G. with 3 year old

We cannot recommend Stephanie, owner of Pillowhead, enough! She helped us with both of our children’s sleep struggles, and the difference she made in our family’s life has been incredible.

Our daughter was solely co-sleeping, and our 3-year-old son was struggling to fall asleep without my husband staying in his room. In less than two weeks, our daughter was sleeping in her own crib, and our son was confidently falling asleep independently.

Stephanie was extremely patient, quick to respond (even during the hard middle-of-the-night moments), and always so supportive and gentle in her approach. She never made us feel judged or pressured and truly helped guide us every step of the way.

Having two small children who weren’t sleeping well was affecting our family in so many negative ways. Stephanie gave us the tools, confidence, and support we needed to finally get our rest back.

If you are struggling with sleep training your baby or toddler, I truly cannot recommend her enough. We are so grateful for her help!

Stephanie went above and beyond in her role as a sleep coach. Had I known about her and her services earlier, I would have contacted her way sooner. So happy to have our evenings and nights back again. Our whole house is sleeping better thanks to Stephanie. Would highly recommend Stephanie if you are having any sleep related challenges.

I was initially skeptical on a sleep consultant- it felt like we had already tried everything with our 4 year old daughter. Well I’m so glad after a particularly brutal week I contacted Stephanie. She gave us personalized and thoughtful tactics and also helped explain some of the science behind sleep. I’m grateful to report we are now on a much better schedule. It’s been transformative to have some time in the evenings back too!
