Jennifer is a Certified Sleep Consultant and owner of Rested Development Sleep Consulting, who works with clients during all stages of parenthood, from pregnancy through to newborn and early childhood.

Jennifer is educated in a wide range of sleep training methods and offers support for all parenting styles.
