Sleep Wise Consulting's Seattle practice is led by Megan Kumpf, a senior pediatric sleep consultant who joined the team in 2018. Megan brings a background in early childhood education and development, and she has carved out notable specializations that set her apart — floor bed and Montessori bed sleep training, Snoo-to-crib transitions, feeding-related sleep issues, and behavioral boundary work.
The Montessori bed and Snoo transition specializations are uncommon. Many consultants have limited experience with floor beds or assume every child sleeps in a crib. Megan's expertise with these specific setups makes her a go-to resource for families following Montessori principles or transitioning off popular sleep tech.
Based in Seattle, WA, with virtual sessions available worldwide.
What is Montessori bed sleep training? It involves training a child to stay in and fall asleep on a floor-level bed (common in Montessori-style bedrooms) rather than a crib. This requires different techniques than crib-based training, and Megan has specific expertise in this area.
Can she help with Snoo-to-crib transitions? Yes. Helping families move from the Snoo bassinet to a standard crib is one of Megan's stated specializations — a growing need as the Snoo has become more popular.
Is her approach compatible with attachment parenting? Yes. Megan specifically supports families who follow attachment and gentle parenting philosophies, adapting her methods to align with those values.
