I was very hesitant in seeking help. I had concerns that I would be told to implement a sleep training plan I didn't agree with. Margit was great! She doesn't use a one-size fits all approach. She takes the whole situation into account and provides an individualized plan for you to use. A plan that you are comfortable with and she helps you every step of the way. Margit is knowledgeable, supportive and caring. She helped my 10 m.o. son go from waking 5+ times a night to sleeping 8 straight hours on his own. My first two children didn't need a whole lot of help sleeping well but the tricks I used for them didn't help at all for my son. It's amazing what an improvement Margit's advice made for my son's sleep. Definitely recommend!

We were very intimidated to sleep train our six month old, and we also knew that waking up seven times a night was no longer sustainable or healthy. Margit has been a guiding light through this new phase as a family. In the challenging and emotional moments, her calm reassurance and availability gave us hope and motivation to continue forward. I'm so glad we did! Our little one is well on his way to sleeping through the night and is settling into a consistent nap schedule. His mood and energy shine through after restorative sleep! We are grateful for the sense of peace in our home, and with deeper rest I know are showing up as more patient and present parents. Thank you, Margit!

The entire process seemed to work seamlessly: the initial planning call and learning session, moving on to the written sleep plan and sleep story, receiving advice during the entire process, having the accountability (on my part - knowing that I would be calling in or writing to discuss our progress each day motivated me to stick to the plan even when it was challenging).Working with Margit was an absolute pleasure. She was motivating, kind, well informed, and non-judgmental. My relationship with my child has deepened through achieving our family sleep goals together. I feel incredibly grateful for her assistance.

Margit is a gem! She successfully helped our family achieve our goal of teaching our son (12 mos) that he was capable of putting himself to sleep without mom! This led to our little one sleeping through the night for the first time EVER. Margit impressed me with her level of expertise and overall enthusiasm for healthy and restorative sleep. From the start of our relationship, I could tell that I was in a safe, judgement free zone and that Margit was ready to listen and help us figure out a plan that would work for our family.

Margit was so helpful for our family. She was understanding and adaptable to our unique situation. Thanks to her knowledge and guidance, my toddler twins are sleeping through the night and so am I! Thanks to Margit I now have the confidence, patience and tools to handle any sleep mishaps that may come our way.

Doing sleep training for our ten months old was a big decision! We were reluctant about it but the increasing number of night wake-ups and declining sleep quality of both us and her eventually took us to start a search for a sleep consultant. Honestly If we had ever imagined that our little one would start sleeping through the night only in 4 days, we would not have waited that long. No doubt, Margit's mindful approach was a hit! She provided us not only a very well prepared sleeping plan but also gave us a big support by checking-in daily, listening to us patiently and answering our questions raised along the way. Her calm nature and confidence helped us trust the process. Following her mindful plan, we were able to ease the transition for our little one. She is now in a healthy sleeping rhythm. Nothing can make us happier than seeing her falling asleep independently by yawning instead of crying. We feel so fortunate for working with Margit and can’t thank her enough for all the support we received.

Margit was fantastic to work with. She's got a soothing, reassuring voice that helped us find reason and a moment of clarity. She's knowledgeable, encouraging, and very responsive. If you're looking for someone to help you and your family figure out how to sleep again and find a routine that works for all of you, she's your person.

Margit helped us with both of our boys, each one with their own set of sleep issues. Trying to help your baby or toddler sleep can be overwhelming, but Margit's ability to guide me through a clear plan for better sleep had two immediate outcomes: I gained confidence, and my boys both slept through the night. Margit has a combination of evidence-based knowledge and a heart of gold, and she uses both to help children and their parents sleep better. She's amazing.

Margit was such a calming presence to us while we were stressed trying to help our baby with his short naps. She really helped teach us the “why” behind her advice and about age appropriate sleep times based on circadian rhythms and his development. There was an immediate difference in his nap quality on the first day of following her advice. She’s also so nice to work with all around! Thank you, Margit!

We came to Margit after having already done a round of sleep training with another sleep consultant. We were looking for support that felt grounded in warmth and real understanding of our child's development and needs. our other sleep consultant was a little rigid, and frankly, new parents don't need rule books by which to abide. We needed help envisioning a flexible routine that could support our unique family. Well, Margit was right there for us with down-to-earth, warm and welcome support. We felt like Margit really encompassed what it means to be of real help to others-- to see them as they could be, to see the potential, and to offer advice on the necessary conditions to make the dreams come true. I have started having dreams again.. because we started sleeping through the night within 3 days of beginning our sleep plan. Thank you Margit! 🙌🙌🙌

I always felt that Margit approached our conversations and check-ins with a tremendous amount of empathy and support. All of our correspondences with Margit, over the phone or email, were professional, timely and handled with thoughtfulness. Margit was an absolute pleasure to work with. We are so lucky and grateful that we had Margit guide us through this journey. I have no doubt that she is going to help give many families and their children the ultimate gift of sleep. I really appreciated the reference to the healthy components of sleep b/c everything in the plan laddered up to this. The written plan was actionable and not overwhelming. For the first time in a long time, I felt like I had a road map to sleep.

Margit is warm and understanding and provided me with the confidence I needed to even try sleep training. I had put it off for so long and our conversations convinced me it was time. I appreciated how open she is and how flexible and responsive to our situation she was.

Margit’s plan cut out all the clutter from the internet / books I've read and kept me focused on a developmentally appropriate sleep schedule for my son. Working with a professional also kept us accountable. Prior to this, it was too easy to default to nursing my son to sleep or saying that I was too tired to help him learn to fall asleep on his own. Margit’s plan gave us the power to help my son. We are so grateful that we had the opportunity to work with Margit as our pediatric sleep consultant. I truly believe that when it comes to our children, we have to assemble a team that we can trust to support us in parenting. With that said, I would want Margit on our team again, and again. For us, her background as a child development specialist and her own experience as a mother made Margit the perfect sleep consultant for our family.

Margit took the time to get to know us, which included previous successes and challenges surrounding sleep for our baby. During our conversations, Margit would share educational components that make-up healthy sleep and would even offer me extended reading on sleep topics that were new to me. I felt like Margit made our family part of the process. By the time I saw the sleep plan Margit had constructed for us, there were no surprises. Our plan was laid out in detail and Margit went over everything with us in depth. She also gave us the opportunity to work through any questions and talk about areas that were likely to cause us discomfort. When it was time to get started, we were eager and even excited! We were able to approach night one with calmness, positivity and confidence, which I know positively impacted our baby. For two weeks, we worked with Margit and followed her detailed plan with great success. Our baby was sleeping through the night before the end of week 1!

Margit is wonderful! We had be on the fence about a sleep coach for months, we had even met with a couple, but Margit was different right away; she really listened to us. Her manner and recommendations felt very comforting to us. She worked with our level of comfort and made sure that we felt supported every step of the way. We would highly recommend her to anyone!

Like many others, I’m sure, I found Little Lantern out of desperation. My 1 year old daughter was waking up every 1.5-2 hours and was nursing essentially all night. I was so sleep deprived and drained that the concept of “risking” more sleep in order to establish a routine felt impossibly scary but I knew we had to try something! I was hesitant to spend the money and thought I could do this on my own but hindsight being what it is I’d have coughed up the cash a whole lot earlier!

Margit took the time to really understand my situation as a single parent and where we were starting from. She educated me on the science behind her plan for our sleep and she offered realistic expectations and encouragement which felt so much better than the “you got this momma” junk from the online accounts I had started following. The daily checkins felt like a safety net, if we had a bad night I knew there was an opportunity to discuss and course correct the next day. Best of all, with some relatively minor adjustments to existing nap and bedtime routine we are both getting sleep and lots of it!
