Why Gentle Starts?

Baby Sleeping

Look at their hands. That was some of the best parenting advice we'd ever heard. No matter how challenging things were, how tired or frustrated we felt, taking a moment to truly look at their hands brought everything back into perspective. They were so small, so new, reaching out and seeking for us to guide them.

In developing our philosophy, we prioritize a gentle, respectful, and loving approach to both sleep and breastfeeding. We recognize that every child is unique, and our commitment is to craft personalized strategies that align with your parenting philosophy. Our goal is not only to help your child sleep through the night and establish successful breastfeeding but also to foster a lifelong healthy relationship with both sleep and nourishment.
