Bedtime doesn’t have to look like this…

Maybe your little one won’t nap. Maybe they climb out of bed twenty times before falling asleep on the floor. Or perhaps it seems like your baby just doesn’t sleep. Whether you are just looking to improve the timing and quality of your child’s sleep, or their sleep routine needs an entire overhaul, we are here to help.

At Family Doulas of Ottawa we connect you with a sleep coach who will work with your family to uncover goals, set guidelines, and develop a comprehensive sleep plan for your little one. Once a plan is developed, an FDO postpartum doula can implement the sleep plan with your family. Using a postpartum doula maximizes your chances for success!

Doula support for sleep coaching is the most effective way we have found to produce fast and long-lasting results. With a doula, your little one is more likely to fall back to sleep quickly and with minimal intervention.


Sleep, like any other skill, is learned. Some children will learn it quickly and independently, without any help from anyone else. Others will need more support to achieve consistent, quality sleep.
