About Rachel

I’ve always been drawn to the early years of a child’s life. The rawness, the joy, the tenderness, the mess. For nearly the past decade I’ve cared for babies and toddlers, supporting families through the beautifully chaotic reality of raising small humans, and helping make things a little easier along the way.

Over time, I found myself pulled toward the parts of parenting people don’t always talk about. The deep exhaustion. The doubt. The “shouldn’t I have figured this out by now?” feeling. I saw how sleep struggles stretched families thin, and how the internet and parenting books often left them feeling even more lost in a sea of conflicting advice.

That pull led me to sleep coaching and postpartum work, which felt like a natural evolution after years of being a nanny. Through my education and trainings, I’ve learned how to support a wide range of families with different values, sleep goals, and parenting styles. I work in a way that’s thoughtful, adaptable, and aligned with what matters to you, not just what’s “supposed” to work.

I believe rest should be possible without giving up your values and needs or waiting until you’re completely burned out. My role is to help you find a rhythm that feels sustainable and supports your child, your mental health, and the way you want to parent.

I offer virtual sleep coaching to families anywhere, along with hybrid sleep coaching and postpartum care in Fort Collins and surrounding areas of Northern Colorado.

A little more about me for fun:

Performing arts is a big part of my life! I spent years as a professional actor and singer, as well as a theater and voice teacher. For a brief but glorious time, I was a celebrity to children when I played Ivy in Ivy and Bean the Musical (pictured above)! I love using creativity and music to bring joy and connection to little ones.

I’m passionate about natural, low-tox living and worked at a natural wellness store for some time. I really enjoy chatting with families looking for easy, practical swaps for household, body, and baby care products.

Last fun fact: I still have a baby tooth! Wild, I know.

I recently moved to Colorado from Vermont with my fiancé Alex and our dog son Rikki. We love getting outdoors and exploring our new home.
