Baby sleeping on their back in a crib

You've tried earlier bedtime. Later bedtime. Longer wake windows. Shorter wake windows. Feeding more. Feeding less. Rocking. Not rocking. Putting her down awake.

And somehow you're still awake at 2:17 AM wondering what you did wrong.

And during the day? You're doing math. If he woke at 6:10 and the first nap was 42 minutes, then the second nap should be… You check the clock more than your messages. You leave the birthday party early because it's "nap time." You lie on the floor next to the crib, not moving, barely breathing, because if he hears you, it all starts again.

You and your partner take turns like shift workers. You love this baby more than anything, and you are so, so tired.

This is exactly why I don't start with a method. I start with your child.

Sound familiar?

"Is she hungry, or am I creating a habit?"
"Did I let that nap go too long?"
"Is he overtired, or not tired enough?"
"Should I go in, or am I making it worse?"
"Why does every expert say something different?"
"I just want someone to tell me what makes sense for MY baby."

If you're making the same decision from scratch every night, you're not doing it wrong. You're doing it without the full picture.

The whole day sets up the night.

Two babies can both wake at 2 AM for completely different reasons. That's why we look at the whole day (feeding, naps, development, temperament, environment, how your child falls asleep, and how the adults respond) before deciding what needs to change.

The Todspot MethodWe look at the whole picture before we change anything.

How we work on sleep

  1. 01
    We map the full 24 hours.

    Wake time, feeds, naps, bedtime, night wakings, how your child falls asleep, daycare, and what you're already doing.

  2. 02
    We find what's actually driving it.

    Usually it's how several things fit together, not one thing.

  3. 03
    We build the plan around your child and your values.

    No single method is required. We choose an approach that fits your child's age, your family and your safety context.

  4. 04
    We adjust as your child responds.

    Your child gives us a lot of information early on, so we watch closely and change what needs changing.

Arianne, founder of Todspot
Meet Arianne

Hi, I'm Arianne.

I'm a mom to three boys, so yes, I get it. I'm also a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant, a Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC) and a Nurtured Heart Approach® Parent Coach. My goal isn't for you to need me forever. It's for you to understand your child so well that you know what to do when the next thing comes.

In their words

How it felt to have support

I just had to take a moment to THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. I honestly don't know how to sum up how much this has meant to us as a family. … I was so skeptical at first, but WOW… this has truly given us our lives back.

We have twins and joined Todspot when they were about 2½ months old, deep in sleep deprivation and chaos. We really joined thinking they'd help us sleep train. Little did we know, we would have guidance and support for everything baby: sleep training, play time support, starting solids, schedule, etc. The absolute best!

Questions moms ask me

Will I have to let my baby cry alone?

No single method is required. I explain the options and build the approach around your child's age, your values and your safety context.

How quickly will we see results?

I don't promise a timeline, and I'd be careful of anyone who does. It depends on your child, the issue, any health context and consistency. What I can promise is that I'll understand what's happening before I ask you to change anything, and when something isn't working, we'll find out why and change it.

What if my child is different?

Your child IS different. The framework tells us what to look at. The plan and the adjustments are personal.

I don't have time for this.

The goal is to stop spending hours researching and reacting. We focus on the few changes that matter most.

My partner isn't sure.

Bring them to the call. Consistency is easier when both adults understand the why.

My baby is very young. Is it too early?

No. I work with families from pregnancy. If your baby is under 4 months, our call just looks a little different.

Do you work with daycare and other caregivers?

Yes. Getting every adult on the same page is part of the plan.

Can I book just one consultation?

No. What makes this work is knowing your child over time and adjusting as they change.

You don't need to have it all organized.

You don't need to show up with the world's most organized explanation of your baby's sleep. That's literally my job. Just tell me what's happening.
