Hi, I’m Laura. I’m a Registered Nurse, Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant, and mom of 5 kids, including twins!
I love helping parents understand and enjoy their babies and toddlers so that they can thrive. I hope you find my site informational and inspirational!
my twins were born in 2016.
I was living in a little country called Djibouti in East Africa with my husband and our one year old daughter when we found out our second baby was actually our second and third. Our twins were born here in the U.S., but we returned to Africa when they were just 3 months old. Those first months with my twins were full of sleepless nights, and the months that followed were worse. We returned home to Minnesota in 2018. I ended up having 2 more singletons after my twins.
It has became my mission and passion to help other twin parents overcome the challenges of raising two babies at the same time. Getting twins to sleep is often the first and biggest challenge for twin parents, but it is very possible.
I’m creating the space that I Needed when my twins were born.
I was completely unprepared for what having twins would be like. I really thought it would be a lot like having one baby, except just a little extra. It. was. not.
I frantically searched the internet and looked for books on how to get my twins to sleep, but there wasn’t much except the cry it out method.
I want to create a space where twin parents can turn to find reliable, twin specific information and support that is easy to understand and follow when they are struggling with sleepless nights. Let me know what content you would like to see and how I can help you find solutions to your sleep needs.
My husband and I are now raising our 5 children in the Twin Cities, where we enjoy spending time with family, being outside (even in winter), and sleeping through the night.
