Kristine Petterson Sleep Consulting

Kristine Petterson is a certified child sleep consultant who also holds credentials as a mindful parenting specialist. That dual focus means her practice addresses not just the mechanics of sleep training but the broader parenting context — helping parents build the awareness, patience, and responsiveness that support good sleep outcomes long-term.

Services Offered

• Personalized sleep plans — Evidence-based, customized strategies
• Mindful parenting guidance — Building awareness and intentionality into daily routines
• Virtual and in-person options — Flexible formats
• Follow-up support — Coaching during implementation

Approach

The mindful parenting lens adds a dimension that pure sleep consulting often misses. Kristine helps parents develop the internal skills — presence, patience, consistency — that make any sleep plan more effective, rather than just focusing on external techniques.
