Our Sound Sleeper, Rosemary Greisman

As a mom of four children, I know how important it is to have a good night's sleep. With over 20 years experience working with infants and children, and a passion for babies, I am committed to helping you solve your child's sleep challenges in a way that fits your parenting style. I founded Our Sound Sleeper to empower parents with the tools that will give them the confidence to raise happy children. Through my consultation services I design a plan that is suitable for parents struggling with sleep. I also cover all key topics — feeding, napping, bathing and anything else that is relevant. I provide my clients with daily friendly, non- judgmental coaching so that ultimately, parents know that they’re the boss! I’m available for private consultation in the GTA and can be reached at 416-616-8855. Through this blog I’d like to help parents by answering questions related to sleep. Please e-mail them and I will answer them as best as I can. I am here to help you and your family to sleep soundly.

Because my children were born in the span of five and a half years, it was crucial that they all slept well. I thoroughly researched and tried various methods related to...

I don’t know about you, but when I became a mom I also became more self-critical.

You only need to take one bite and if you don’t like it, you don’t have to eat the rest.” Hook, line and sinker. Son: “Um… ok.” I watched as my lovely little boy took a deep breath and bit into that...

For the first week after delivery try to rest whenever you can. Don’t be tempted to try to catch up on everything you have not had the time to do.
