Shira Unterman, Baby's Best Sleep Certified Infant & Toddler Sleep Consultant
I'm so happy you're here!
Hi, I’m Shira—founder of Sweet Dreamers and proud mama to three little ones under 5.
​
When my oldest was born, I was sure I’d never sleep again (sound familiar?). Everyone told me sleepless nights were just part of parenting, but no one mentioned how overwhelming, exhausting, and anxiety-inducing it could be. Like so many new parents, I spent endless hours Googling everything—wake windows, nap transitions, and the ever-elusive “drowsy but awake.” But the more I researched, the more confused I became.
​
I just needed someone to simplify it all, show me what actually works, and cheer me on when I doubted myself. That’s when I found a professional sleep expert—and my life changed. With the right guidance, my baby and I were sleeping soundly in just three days. Nights, naps—everything clicked. The difference it made in my energy, confidence, and day-to-day joy was life-changing.
​
That experience sparked my passion for helping other parents navigate the same struggles. As a certified pediatric sleep coach, I’ll guide you step by step, offering practical tools and unwavering support to help your baby or toddler learn to sleep. Together, we’ll create a plan that works for your family, so you can reclaim your rest, your peace, and your time.
​
You deserve to wake up feeling rested and ready to take on the day. Let’s make sweet dreams a reality for you and your little ones.
My Philosophy
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to parenting, and that belief is at the heart of my philosophy as a Sleep Consultant.
My practice is rooted in evidence-based methods and backed by scientific research, but I know that sleep is about so much more than schedules and strategies—it’s deeply personal. That’s why my approach is tailored to your family’s unique needs and built on emotional support every step of the way.
​
I’ll be honest: the journey to better sleep may come with a few tears (for both parents and kids!), but I’m here to guide you with compassion and confidence. Together, we’ll help your child build the skills to sleep independently while strengthening your connection with them.
With the right tools and a plan that feels right for you, restful nights are within reach—and I’ll be there to support you every step of the way.
How does it work?
STEP 01
​
Let’s start with a free, no-obligation call to see if we’re the right fit for your family. We’ll discuss your current challenges and goals, and I’ll share how I can support you on your journey to better sleep.
STEP 02
Every family is unique, and so is every sleep plan. Based on your child’s age and your specific needs, I’ll recommend a package that aligns with your goals and sets you up for success.
STEP 03
The real transformation begins! I’ll provide hands-on guidance and daily text message support to troubleshoot and adjust as we go. My goal is to work with you until your baby is sleeping peacefully—and so are you.
