Talkin' Toddler Sleep Course
Transform your 1-5 year old's sleep from dreadful to dreamy using science, connection and community.
You're toddler isn't terrible
Although it may not feel that way–it’s true!
Testing your patience is a toddler’s job–or at least it feels that way. Fighting you at bedtime, having apparent hearing problems when you make requests, finding something that must be done - right now (and its not getting ready for bed) –the list just keeps going. So yes, it feels like calling them an asshole is the way to go! 
But the reality is that these tiny humans are just barely scratching the surface of understanding their very big emotions and the new found freedoms their physical skills have brought them. So what feels like purposeful annoyance (and hell if it isn’t frustrating) is really them experimenting and exploring the world around them
At the end of the day--all you really want is...
Fast and easy bedtime and naptime routines that don't last hours, and allow you both to peacefully fall asleep without resentment or stress.
More sleep and reduced night time wakes, you thought sleep deprivation was behind you or maybe the wakes never stopped in the first place. You need sleep and so does your toddler.
For your toddler to sleep independently so you can finally not feel “touched out” and have the freedom to spend quality time with your partner, or have designated “me” time
Know exactly what to expect and how to handle sleep challenges in a way that feels aligned with your values and uses your toddler's development to your benefit.

Valerie’s toddler sleep course has taught us so much.
There were so many things that we did not realize could be causing our little one to fight sleep. Her course helped us understand our toddler’s behaviours and possible reasons why this was happening and how to help improve her sleeping habits. I am so grateful for this course.

🔊Attention: The Sleep Game Has Changed!
Whatever you do to get your little one to sleep AND brings you joy
When it comes to toddler sleep– the strategies and guidelines from baby sleep seem to have gone out the window! Baby sleep was reactionary–because your baby needed you in order for their needs to be met. BUT now that your little one is officially in the Toddler stage–that’s all changed with their budding independence! Your little one can tell you exactly why it's actually not time for sleep, implement the best delay tactics, and turn your sleep upside down.
I need water!
More Kisses!
I'm hungry!
It’s time to implement loving limits and boundaries because they create sanity for humans and your toddler needs them to thrive. We teach you how to set loving limits and boundaries so that you can be the parent you want to be while ensuring your toddler turns out to be the best human possible.
Thank you!
Before this course, I didn't understand my toddler sleep at all, or what was even considered "normal" for a toddler. I was surprised after taking the course to find that yes we had gained more confidence in our sleep decisions, but we felt more supported in our parenting decisions as well!
I can happily report we now have an independent little sleeper too!

Curious to see what’s inside the 4 modules that make up Toddler Sleep Essentials?
Let’s check them out!
The Course
Toddler Sleep Foundations
In some ways–as a baby your little one ruled the nest. Now it’s time to step into your role as leader of your home! Toddlers thrive on routine and structure, so in this module we will cover what you need to understand your unique toddler’s needs, set boundaries and loving limits, and how to make changes as your toddler’s and family’s needs change.
Toddlers are growing fast– and have lots of feelings that seem to be developing and exploding at super speed. You want to respond to crying but sometimes it can feel confusing and overwhelming. . So we’ve included a lesson that helps you get to the “WHY” of what makes them cry and help you learn to understand and respond to their emotional needs.
Sleep Schedules & Nap Transitions ✨
How many times have you seen a sleep course guaranteeing results if you just “follow the schedule 100% of the time and really commit to the process.” Yeah–that’s not realistic. They can’t possibly account for your toddler’s loves and dislikes. There’s just too many individual factors to consider! That’s why in the first lesson of this module we’ll help you know exactly how to create the best sleep schedules and wake windows for your unique family.
You may also be dreading those impending nap transitions–maybe your toddler obviously needs their nap, but keeps resisting it. It’s a BIG transition and we want you to be prepared, so we have lessons dedicated to each of the big nap transitions to include transition to quiet time.
How to get restful nights and win at bedtime routines 😌
If you’re frustrated with how things go down at bedtime–odds are your toddler is too! And nobody needs to wake up frustrated from the night before. That’s why for many parents this module is THE module to watch. Each module in this section addresses a different sleep concern. From reducing nighttime wakes to handling sleep resistance so that you can get more sleep and blissful, easy bedtime routines for your whole family. We resolve wakes and delayed bedtimes by focusing on the root cause – never asking you to just “let them cry”.
Independent Sleep Transitions
No one loves independence more than a toddler and no one is ready for it more than a toddler parent! – you are ready for independence and you also want to do what’s best for your little one. It might be time to transition out parts of your sleep routines that no longer work for your family because your toddler isn’t a baby anymore and their needs changed or maybe you are the one ready to change things up. These gentle and responsive transitions allow you both to move to meaningful routines that you both love while getting your toddler to fall asleep on their own (if you want to) and in their own space (if you want to).
plus Group Support
Your BIG Questions answered by the Talkin’ Sleep Team and like minded parents
The toddler stage is full of ups, downs and all around ---- and that means that what worked before changes in a few weeks or months. After talking with parents like you we found that two things are essential to the toddler stage: having like minded people in your support community AND having experts available to answer questions. So we created exactly that!
Our moderated support group gives parents the opportunity to connect and asks questions of one another. When big questions arise, having access to our team of toddler sleep, mental and developmental health experts means you find answers that align with your values exactly when you need them.

Your time is precious
As parents ourselves– we understand that everyday is a unique adventure and there is hardly ever warning when things are not going to go according to plan. It’s one of the reasons we have committed to zero time limits on our course access. We know that you are trying to take in the information you need as quickly as possible in teeny-tiny slices of time throughout your day. And pressure to take in all the information we’re providing would just make this–well–icky!
We also know that many of you are opting to grow your families as time goes on–we want you to utilize the knowledge you gain from The Ultimate Toddler Course to help every one of your little ones as they develop and grow. Especially since the odds of having identical sleep habits amongst your kiddos isn’t gonna be a thing–every toddler is different.
☕
If we’re not your flat white (that’s coffee FYI)
-- that’s okay!
Honest–there are no hard feelings if our approach to sleep doesn’t align with your personal sleep philosophy. Every family should get a choice in deciding what’s best for them. Giving people options beyond the status quo variety is kind of our thing. We want you to know that your decision on how to navigate toddler sleep is 100% the right decision for your unique family.
On the fence about us?
Being a data driven person myself–I want you to have all the details to help you make the best decision for you. So we looked at all the families we’ve helped over the years and found that toddler Sleep Essentials will be perfect for you if….
Your parenting style would be considered responsive, respectful, natural or gentle and you don't want to fall into the routines of your parents because well...that sucked!
You want to parent using your intuition but need some extra encouragement because parenting is eff-ing hard!
You’re willing to accept what is biologically normal for your toddler while doing what you can to maximize your toddler’s sleep.
Doing what’s best for your baby is THE priority and you want to confirm that what you've done so far is on the right track–and if not how to adjust to make that happen.
For the record I think you’re doing great because you’re here! By researching and taking the time to make sure this is the right place for you means you’re already on the right track. 👏
Sound like the perfect fit for your family?!

Not all Courses are created equal
Depending on the type of support you're looking for–Baby Sleep Essentials Course might not be the right fit for you. Let’s take a moment to make sure we’re on the same page, here are things you won’t find in the course:
- Generic or prescribed schedule for sleep–because we have found that families and babies are unique and fixed solutions don’t work long term. Instead we gives you the information needed to develop your own personalized schedule that works for your little one. NO cookie cutter solutions here!
- Step-by-step instructions where you are told exactly how to care for your toddler. Why? Well–if I’m being honest, as a child mental health expert that’s not a real possibility. Every toddler is a unique individual and all parenting techniques need to be adapted to their personality and individual development.
- A “magic” solution to sleep–as much as I’d love to tell you to click your heels three times and *poof* it’s just not real life. There is no magic fix–and people who are peddling magic solutions typically fall short of delivering on their promise.
- Want a cry it out approach–Cry it out methods are not used here at any stage. If you are looking for one - we aren't your people (no hard feelings!)
🎊
If you're still with me--it's looking good that we're the right fit!
There’s just one more thing I want to add. If you’ve already taken numerous sleep courses from varying sleep experts AND nothing is helping your little one sleep–it’s time for one-on-one support from an expert. This individualized support allows the expert to review your specific family needs, your little one’s medical history and can help you decipher all the clues to create a curated solution for your family.

Despite what you may have heard, YOUR well-being is actually essential
It’s true! When you find solutions to your family's struggles that align with your personal values and philosophies, your whole family will feel it. So yes! Your mental and physical health are important when it comes to your toddler’s sleep.
I’m Valerie–

(Registered Social Worker, M.S.W, R.S.W if I am being exact. )
When I became a parent myself and started researching toddler sleep more and more I realized a terrible truth–the toddler sleep world is unregulated and anyone can claim to be an expert and spread blame and misinformation around. 😱 So those people telling you to walk away from your toddler when they are upset, to stop cuddling and loving on them because you’ll “spoil” them–they are misinforming you!
Actual child development science supports connection + compassion!
As a self-proclaimed psychology nerd. I read those giant peer-reviewed articles on toddler sleep, and developmental psychology for pleasure. THAT is my passion and it’s what I bring with me to my Talkin’ Sleep families. Years of scientific research and practical experience working one-on-one with families from all walks of life guide our content. That means you can feel confident that what you learn from Talkin’ Sleep is in the best interest of you, your toddler AND your whole family.

Absolutely not! I am personally against cry-it-out and sleep training of any kind. It is not in line with current scientific evidence and the thought of leaving children to cry breaks my heart.
You will never be asked to leave your toddler to cry for any length of time for any reason. You will also never be asked to ignore your intuition. This is not a course to teach you how to train your toddler to sleep. (It is a biological function after all!)
In module 4 of the Talkin’ Toddler Sleep Course, we cover independent sleep transitions that include sleeping in their own space.
In module 3 of the Talkin’ Toddler Sleep Course, we cover getting more sleep transitions that includes identifying what’s waking them and how to respond in a way that minimizes wakes.
Yes! In modules 1, 2 and 3 of the Talkin’ Toddler Sleep Course, we cover what you need to know to transform your bedtime routines from dreadful to dreamy!
In modules 2 and 3 of the Talkin’ Toddler Sleep Course, we cover what you need to know to get to the root cause of nap resistance so you can make it a thing of the past.
The course is intentionally designed for the toddler ages 1-5 years. Good news though, The Talkin’ Sleep Baby Sleep Essentials Course is perfect for babies ages 0-12 months! CHECK IT OUT
No, this course does not–but we offer that as a standalone webinar! GET NIGHT WEANING WEBINAR
Bottom line: Yes!
The Ultimate Toddler Sleep Course is designed to help you guide your toddler to their best possible sleep by focusing on identifying and resolving the root cause of your sleep woes, setting realistic expectations, and establishing boundaries and loving limits. Such as their environment, expanding knowledge of their own unique personality and needs, having realistic expectations, balancing household schedules, and identifying the reasons for sleep disruptions.
That being said–the allied healthcare provider in me has to add–if there is a known medical issue that is causing a sleep disruption, treating the condition should be your first step in that process.
