First Daze and Nightzzz

First Daze and Nightzzz is led by Pam, who holds a distinction few consultants can claim — she was among the first 50 sleep consultants ever trained by Kim West, author of the influential book The Sleep Lady's Good Night, Sleep Tight. That pioneering training, combined with her work as a certified HUG Your Baby teacher and WakeMed lactation support volunteer, gives her an exceptionally deep foundation.
