Building and preserving healthy attachments is a priority in my work as a doula and sleep consultant. I specialize in gentle sleep coaching, utilizing your unique parenting style and your child’s personality, emotional wellbeing and development. Rather than a quick fix, one-size-fits-all approach, we will create a plan together that fits your family’s sleep goals and that you can feel confident in. My sleep plans are based on parental presence while your child learns new sleep skills.
My values:
Babies and toddlers learn fast!
In most cases you will see an improvement within the first 4 nights of consistently following the sleep plan we create together.
Will there be crying?
Your child will likely have big feelings when we change the way they are used to falling asleep. Just like adults, children get frustrated when they have to deal with something that is new and unexpected. In my practice you stay with your child to help them feel safe and have their feelings be heard and validated.
What I can support you with:
Whether your child sleeps in a crib, you bed share or co-sleep, I can support you with reaching your sleep goals:
My values:
- Babies and toddlers need their caregivers to help regulate their emotions.
- For the brain to learn, we have to feel safe and can not be in a “fight or flight”-state.
- Children can learn to develop sleep skills when they are developmentally ready.
- We communicate to young children through consistency.
- Not knowing what to expect due to a lack of consistency can cause sleep anxiety, night wakings and more crying.
- Parents can gently show consistent boundaries while holding space for their children so they can safely express their emotions and develop new skills.

"Unlike other nighttime doulas Annika is awake all night long. She is warm, detail-oriented and very professional (arrives on time, updates baby app from her phone, emails each morning with account of the night etc)."
