About Rested Roots
Pediatric Sleep Consulting
Hello, I’m Amy!
I'm a mother to Wilma, partner to Brennen, and founder of Rested Roots. As a pediatric sleep consultant certified through the Institute of Pediatric Sleep and Parenting (IPSP), I know the research and the methods. But I also know what it feels like to be so depleted you can't see the way forward — and what it feels like on the other side of it, too.
When Wilma wouldn't sleep without me
The hardest hour of every day.
When Wilma was born in January 2025, bedtime became an hour of rocking, shushing, and a pacifier that wouldn't stay put — with no way to predict how the night would go. By the end, I was so drained I'd cry almost every night, staring down a return to work and knowing the unpredictability wasn't sustainable.
The sleep plan that changed everything for us
It felt like magic.
Within three days of a plan built specifically for Wilma, she was sleeping through the night, napping in her crib, and falling asleep independently. Our nervous systems finally rested — and giving her that independence gave us back our calm too.
Watching Wilma learn to sleep through the night
It didn't have to be that way.
Hearing other parents accept short naps and broken nights as just how it is, I knew their babies could sleep too. That's the moment Rested Roots was born — to hand other exhausted families the same rest and confidence that changed ours.
