 🌟 Erin’s Client Testimonials 🌟

Christina A, 10 months

Erin quite literally saved my sanity. I was really on the fence about sleep training but my son had not slept through the night – even once – in ten months and I was starting to lose my mind. After my first call with Erin, I immediately felt at ease with her and knew she was the right fit. She is a mother herself and understood all my concerns and questions. Unlike other sleep consultants we had talked to, she took the time to truly understand our goals, our family, and what our son needed. Ultimately, she set us up with a plan to stay in the room with my son as he adjusted to sleeping independently. She recognized he was a sensitive little guy and that he would not respond well to being left alone right off the bat. Within a week, we were getting more sleep than we had in months, and by “graduation” we were getting 12 hours a night consistently. We could not recommend Erin enough and even months later when I have a question, concern, or regression – she is always there to help. We truly appreciate her so much and everyone in our house is feeling well rested!

Rebecca R, 4.5 month old

Working with Erin from Tiny Transitions saved our sanity! I didn’t realize how important it would be to have a coach for my husband and I to lean on as we navigated the sleep training process for our 4.5 month old, but it ultimately meant the world. Erin tailored the big picture sleep training plan AND individual nights and days to our daughter’s specific needs and habits. She answered every email promptly, which eased our anxious minds. When we reached out to TT, we were holding our baby for every nap and sleeping in the crib at night was hit or miss especially with night wakings. We were at the end of our rope and desperate for help to change all of our habits. We are so grateful to Erin and TT for guiding us from start to finish!

Erica S,

Erin was absolutely wonderful to work with! My toddler was 18 months and still not sleeping through the night and didn’t like being in his crib. Within the first week of Erin’s coaching our son loved his crib and was sleeping through the night by the end of the first week! Her guidance and support was so helpful and I keep recommending her to everyone!

Anna W,

We had the absolute best experience with Erin Forish from Tiny Transitions. I booked a discovery call in a panic at 2am one morning after spending weeks not getting more than 45 minutes to 2.5 hours of sleep at a time with our little guy. After three weeks of incorporating Erin’s techniques and schedule, our son is consistently sleeping 7+ hours at a time, often only waking one time per night. We went from spending hours to get him to sleep by rocking/bouncing/shushing/soothing/etc to him putting himself to sleep with every nap and bedtime. I can’t recommend her enough. We are so thankful to have found her!

Alexander J, 4 months old

Erin Forish was excellent with assisting us get our 4 mo old to sleep through the night. Erin was extremely helpful and thorough in caring for our little one, tracking his progress, and recommending adjustments to keep him on track with his sleep schedule. Erin made this process easy for us, and well worth the money. With our little one sleeping, my wife and I were able to get some well needed rest for the first time since he was born. We cannot recommend Erin and Tiny Transitions enough, it was the smartest decision we could have made.

Amy P, 3.5 years old

We worked with Kiley and she was the best thing to happen to our family! My son was diagnosed with autism and had always been a terrible sleeper. My sister is a PA for a pediatric office and got right to work googling someone who could help us (after 3.5 years of no sleep). She found Tiny Transitions and I’m so glad she did!

Kiley listened, supported, asked questions, and really got to know my son enough to know exactly what to do and how to help us.

Before, my husband and I barely slept and it took us hours to get our son down, only to be jolted awake not long after by his cries.

We are SLEEPING and THRIVING! Thank you so much and I cannot recommend her enough!

-Amy Rau

Sarah W,

Working with Erin was the best thing I’ve done for my sanity since my baby was born. I feel like I have witnessed an absolute MIRACLE. After almost a year of extreme sleep deprivation, and trying to solve my baby’s sleep struggles on my own, I finally accepted that I needed professional help and I googled “sleep consultant near me”. I came across the raving reviews of Tiny Transitions and immediately reached out. Erin responded the same day to set up a call. By some benevolent blessing of the universe, I happened to run in to Erin at a local coffee shop before our call. She was so warm and helpful, and provided so many solid strategies to try just after our brief conversation. After implementing just 2 of her slight tweaks that day, my baby SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME. I still can’t get over it. I knew then that Erin had the skills to help me and my baby get the sleep we so desperately needed, and I booked a 3-week coaching package with her.

I saw dramatic improvements in my baby’s sleep within days. I thought he was just one of those babies who was going to struggle with sleep for years, but with Erin’s guidance he is a great little sleeper now. Erin was so responsive to emails, answering my questions throughout the day as they came up, and teaching me strategies and helping me stay consistent. Before working with her, I had read countless articles and books, scouring reddit and asking other moms how to get my baby to sleep better, but with so many methods out there, I had a hard time coming up with a plan because I wasn’t sure what would work best for us. Whenever I tried to implement a plan, countless questions would come up and I didn’t know what to do when the day/night inevitably didn’t go as planned. Nothing I tried seemed to work. Erin’s coaching helped me understand the WHY behind the strategies she recommended, and gave me the tools to make calls on the fly throughout the day to ensure baby gets a good night’s sleep.

I am so grateful to Erin and the immense difference she has made in my life – I feel like a human again and can enjoy being a mom. The only thing I regret is that I should’ve reached out MONTHS earlier – I would’ve had such a different experience in my first year of motherhood. Don’t hesitate to work with Erin!!

Amanda W, 3 month old

We elected to work with Erin after our daughter was struggling to sleep at night as a three month old. We were tired and stressed that we weren’t doing the right things to set our daughter up for successful sleeping. Erin was so kind and knowledgeable. She worked with us to find a method to support our daughter in finding independent sleep while remaining true to our beliefs as parents. I would recommend anyone with a child with suboptimal sleep patterns to talk to Erin. Thank you so much!!

Jen H,

TL:DR: It is not hyperbole to say that working with Erin changed our lives. Worth every penny.

Longer review: I confess that I wondered many times if it was a mistake to have a second baby. I’m happy to report that was just the chronic exhaustion talking. With Erin’s patient guidance and valuable expertise, we established nighttime sleep and daytime nap routines that work for our family. My baby now falls asleep on his own at the expected times, sleeps for consistent lengths of time, wakes up happy, and is well-rested and content. Importantly, my husband and I also have the skills to make sleep routine adjustments to adapt to real life, like being off-schedule on vacation.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that when our baby, born slightly premature, started sleeping more, he also started crawling, clapping, playing peekaboo. Also, when baby sleeps better, Mom and Dad sleep better. My constant brain fog is gone, I have more patience, I have energy for dates with my husband, and I’ve lost most of the baby weight without intentional effort.

My only regret is not hiring Erin earlier. Don’t make the same mistake:-)

Gianna, 16 Months Old, Orlando, FL

We are so thankful for the help Tiny Transitions Sleep Consulting provided us. Erin was patient responsive and accommodating to our son’s needs to help better his sleep habits. He is napping 2 hours a day and independently falling asleep on his own at nights! We appreciate all of Erin’s time and efforts. Thanks again, and we would highly recommend this program to every parent!

Tara, 2.5 Years Old, Philadelphia, PA

When my 2.5 year old started to fight bedtime, I panicked. I never encountered sleep issues like this with my first child and wasn’t sure what to do. My precious “me” time at night was no longer mine. It was now spent trying to get my daughter to sleep and doing my best not to start any bad habits (like sleeping on her floor). I called Erin and instantly felt reassured. She knew the exact scenario I was experiencing, provided me with simple tools to get the result I needed, and gave me confidence that this “wasn’t forever”. Within a few nights, we were back on track! I highly recommend working with Erin for sleep issues at any age, you won’t be disappointed. More importantly, you and your family will be well rested.

Brianna, 4 Months Old, Manayunk. PA

When we started working with Erin 6 weeks ago, she told us that our son would be able to be placed in his crib and us walk out without tears. I didn’t believe her ! We were so desperate for sleep since our bedtime consisted of rock for hours, play music, sing to him, anything to get him to sleep just for him to wake up ever 90 minutes throughout the night. Now we place him in his crib and he is able to fall asleep and stay asleep on his own. Not only did we gain the knowledge to support him, but we got to see him gain confidence in putting himself to sleep without our support. Best money we have ever spent, thank you ERIN!

Alexandra, 6 Months Old, Blue Bell. PA

Erin was wonderful to work with, so supportive, and readily available! Highly recommend Tiny Transitions Sleep Consulting to anyone struggling with sleep routines. It only took 3 weeks and made a world of difference!

Lindsay, 7 months old, Agoura Hills, CA

Erin was amazing and incredibly helpful. She was super easy to get in touch with for help and the 1:1 support allowed us to customize a plan that would fit our unique situation and needs. Would highly recommend!

Dave, 11 months old, Wyomissing, PA

I found Erin and Tiny Transitions during an exhausted middle-of-the-night google search for a pediatric sleep consultant to help us get through a rough toddler sleep regression…and I couldn’t be more thankful! Erin was kind, understanding, and supportive the entire 3 weeks, and she got us from a state of pure exhaustion to sleeping straight through the night with a few minor changes to our timing and routines. We’re all happier and well-rested now! THANK YOU, ERIN!

Adunola, 11 month old, Harriburg, PA

We reached out to Erin in desperation, as our daughter Heaven was struggling to sleep through the night, and so were we. Erin’s approach was a game-changer. She tailored a sleep training program that suited Heaven’s needs and was always there to guide us through each step.

The results were incredible. Within a few weeks, Heaven was sleeping peacefully through the night, and our entire household felt a sense of normalcy return. Erin’s professionalism and compassionate demeanor made a potentially stressful process much more manageable. She was always available to answer our questions and provided us with the support we needed.

Our personal experience with Erin was nothing short of amazing. She not only understood our challenges but also empathized with our situation, making us feel heard and cared for. Thanks to Erin, sleepless nights are now a thing of the past for our family.

We wholeheartedly recommend Erin to any parent facing sleep challenges with their child. Her expertise, kindness, and effective methods have truly made a difference in our lives.

Jillian, 3 year old, West Chester, PA

I was looking for newborn sleep regression solutions and found Tiny Transitions. Best.Decision.Ever. to book a consultation with them. As a new, first time mom, I was stuck and going down the Facebook rabbit hole. I spoke with Erin Forish, and we worked together for several weeks. She gave me the confidence, support and guidance I needed and was just a perfect newborn sleep coach. Thank you! It’s lovely to head to bed each night knowing as she grows I will hear not a peep from the nursery unless she needs me.

Elissa P., 8 months old, Wyomissing, PA

We loved working with Erin Forish. She gave us so much knowledge on why she suggested trying certain techniques, and we saw the payoff right away. She is an expert in her field, and I learned more about baby sleep and even baby eating than I knew possible. We were still able to comfort our baby, but Erin’s help gave her the tools to learn to put herself to sleep and stay asleep resulting in not just a more well-rested baby, mom and dad, but a happier house overall. We tell everyone about Erin-could not recommend her more highly as your child’s baby sleep training & sleep consultant.

Liz Wilson, 8 Months Old, Manayunk, PA

ERIN FORISH IS A LIFESAVER! I was hesitant to hire a certified sleep consultant because I was told that oh she will eventually sleep just try this and that. Well after installing new room darkening blinds, a split line AC/Heat Unit, and trying every single sleep sack. The kid still didn’t want to sleep more than a few hours at a time. Erin helped us wean and sleep train and I was even reluctant to post a review soon after our daughter graduated from the program but I can tell you that everything has worked perfectly. A baby that only slept maybe 4 hours stretches at a time now sleeps 11 hours each night.

Erin has great communication skills and is patient, knowledgable and encouraging. We have a solid bedtime routine and she continues to sleep thru the night! Worth every single penny and I can’t stress enough how valuable this training and coach was!! Thank you!

Priya, 8 Month Old, Chesterfield, MO

“I can’t express how helpful Erin Forish of Tiny Transitions has been! We started working with her one full year before our son was born because as a first time mom, I had no idea of what to expect with a newborn, let alone how to teach him to sleep. She made us feel comfortable and informed right away!

Erin has been with us whenever we needed her and at one point, we decided to commit to a 3 week intensive coaching program with her. We had regular check-ins where she cheered my husband and I on, when we had even small wins. A lot of people think sleep training is this cruel process but Erin knew what my limitations and personal values were going in, and she respected that. She never moved too quickly and she always made sure I was comfortable with the plan before we got off the phone. I also really appreciated using the sleep tracker spreadsheet that her and I shared so that she could keep tabs on our progress and I could also see how far we had come after our 3 weeks together!

I have recommended Tiny Transitions to everyone I know and I can also say that I have used their services and know the benefit of the 1:1 coaching and personal touch that Erin provides. The live feedback that you get, along with the encouragement and knowledge, made our sleep training for our son virtually painless and incredibly effective!”

Aileen S, Almost 3 Years Old

My almost 3yr old has struggled with sleep and separation anxiety since day 1. When he was two and a half he stopped taking naps all together and I thought that was it for us. I was just going to have to deal with a chronically tired and straight up miserable kid forever.

One morning, a few weeks ago, I just couldn’t take it anymore. We had to make a change. But I felt like we were at such a loss. We have and do all the things the internet tells you to do but nothing was working.

I needed more support. So, I called Erin and she was AMAZING.

She listened to all of my struggles and took into consideration all of our unique challenges. We came up with an initial plan. She was gentle, supportive, yet firm in her approach in such a way that gave me the confidence I needed. We ended that conversation with a clear plan and me feeling like, Ok! I’ve totally got this!

It’s now been about two weeks and my kid is happily taking a “rest” every day! AND has put himself down for a nap a few times without me being in the room! This has been HUGE for our family.

I couldn’t have done this without the support from Erin! She has been there for me throughout the entire process cheering me on and offering that one-on-one support that I couldn’t find anywhere else.

I highly recommend Erin! She is that person you need in your corner to help keep your head up, encourage you to keep going, and will be high-fiving you along the whole way!

Anna E., 4 Years old

“We hired Erin after we were so defeated in our four year olds sleep regression. Erin was no nice, a great listener, and talked us through everything. We saw improvement very quickly, and now she is doing great. Erin gave us tools to continue to use throughout sleep issues as well as many other areas in parenting. We could not be happier with taking the leap to hire a professional. you can’t put a price on sleep!”

Sarah C,

“As a first time mom I never in a million years would think that I would stress over my daughter’s sleep. For nine months I struggled with naps and overnights. I read everything I could find online about sleep and I kept telling myself that eventually she would sleep, eventually she would figure it out, eventually I wouldn’t be waking up every hour tending to her every need. We broke every rule out there. We were rocking and holding her to sleep, nursing to sleep and co-sleeping. She would wake up every two hours and wanted to be nursed and held. It just was not sustainable and it was beginning to not only take a toll on me but I knew it was taking a toll on my daughter. She was waking up tired with dark red circles under her eyes. We both were not the best versions of ourselves because we were tired and exhausted. I finally reached out to Tiny Transitions and booked a call with Erin.


Erin listened intently to our current situation and never judged me for “breaking all the rules”. As a mother of three she knew exactly where I was coming from and her encouragement and guidance was exactly what my family needed. We are one week through the process and I can say that our little one is sleeping in her crib all night with very few wake ups. She is waking up happy and more playful and we are all getting sleep. If you are in a similar situation book a call with Erin. You will have all the steps and guidance you need and she will be there with you every step of the way. Ironically I used to laugh at people that hired sleep consultants…I was so wrong. It is a game changer!!

Darah B,

“Erin is truly the reason we got through this difficult time in our life. She is patient, caring, and empathic during our calls and has truly changed my family’s life. My son is sleeping through the night and I was hopeless that this would get better! Ask for Erin, she is amazing and absolutely meant to help people!

Sachin P

“We were facing trouble with our baby’s sleeping pattern. Our daughter did not get quality sleep. Not only her sleep schedule was erratic , she would wake up multiple times overnight. This would make us feel tired during day because of lack of sufficient rest. We found tiny transitions. Erin was fantastic and always very patient with us. Erin walked us through all what we needed to do. With her guidance, we did see initial positive change in first few days itself. Babies take their own time to adjust to new schedule and the techniques shared by Erin came in handy and helpful to help us stay the course. Baby is getting quality sleep and we are now getting enough rest for ourselves. We strongly recommend Tiny Transitions and Erin, if you are looking for help with your baby’s sleep issues.

Aaron K, 10 months old

“We worked with Erin from Tiny Transitions to improve sleep for our 10 month old daughter. In just a few weeks, she went from waking up 4x per night to sleeping through the night. The most impressive part was the support we got from Erin throughout the process. She was always available, super supportive, and never judgmental. She worked with us to find a solution that worked for our family and was a great coach along the way. The improvement has been life changing and our only regret is not doing this sooner.

Fallon T, 18 months old

“Erin was wonderful to work with! With her help and guidance our 18 mo. old has learned to sleep independently in her crib. I was able to drop comfort night feedings and stop co-sleeping. Our little one adjusted easily to her new, gentle sleep schedule. For anyone on the fence, go for it! You and your baby deserve to have the best quality sleep!

Krystin K.

“WORTH.EVERY.PENNY.


We worked with Erin on newborn sleep shaping after weeks of fighting sleep. Erin helped us enable our newborn to sleep safely and on his own, and restored some sanity back to our home.

Amanda P.

“Erin was absolutely amazing. She was knowledge, friendly, but most of all, helpful. She walked me through the entire process and gave me the confidence and tools to help my baby become a better sleeper. The process wasn’t nearly as stressful as I thought it would be, and that was because of Erin. She was truly the best, and I highly recommend her for all you baby sleeping needs!

Courtney D, 3 month old

My family and I worked with Erin to help transition our 3 month old into her own crib from the Snoo and help with bedtime. Erin was so supportive, we saw huge improvements in just the first week after implementing her suggestions.

I highly recommend Tiny Transitions and Erin specifically!

Katie W.

“After meeting with Erin and the Expecting Parents Sleep Program, it made me feel more confident about dealing with newborn sleep!

Melissa J, 1.5 year old

“We worked with Erin from Tiny Transitions to help our 1.5 year old fall asleep on her own, remain asleep throughout the entire night and sleep past 4:00AM! I was so pleased with the gradual transition and improvements we saw our daughter making within the first week of this process. Erin was a wonderful resource and available whenever we needed her. She was non judgmental and customized the plan to fit our daughters needs. We couldn’t have made these changes without her support and we are so thankful to be sleeping well again! I will definitely call her again if needed for future children.

Jamie S,

“Erin was a huge help in transitioning our son from 2 naps to 1 and helping us push out his wake time. She was considerate, patient and a pleasure to work it. Would absolutely recommend utilizing Erin at Tiny Transitions for all your baby sleep needs!

Alyssa G, 5 weeks

“Erin is truly a lifesaver when it comes to sleep! I can’t recommend her enough to anyone who is struggling with sleep. I started working with Erin when my twins were only 5 weeks! It was a hot mess those first 5 weeks! I had no clue what I was doing and everything I googled about wake windows didn’t make sense to me! Erin jumped right in and guided me and taught me how to get their sleep in order! It literally saved me! Erin always answered me within a timely manner when I had questions about their sleep or a schedule change! I highly recommend working with Erin if you are sleep deprived or are having issues with sleep! She truly is the greatest!

Dini W, 7 month old

“We were so happy with Tiny Transitions! Our 7 month old never slept more than 2 hours at a time…round the clock. It was exhausting! He now naps consistently and wakes only once a night to eat. We couldn’t be happier!

Laura V, 8 month old

“We loved working with Erin as we worked through bad sleep habits with our 8-month-old. Even though we had previously worked with a sleep consultant when our 4-year-old twins were babies, Erin had a lot to add and really helped us with problem solving and building our confidence. She was compassionate and invested in our success.

Christina T, 2.5 year old

“I am so so grateful for Erin F. from Tiny Transitions!! My 2.5 year old was waking 6-10 times a night when we first connected. It was an ongoing battle for months. I immediately saw changes after starting the program with Erin. She was there every step of the way and now my son (and I) get the rest we really need. Erin really went above and beyond for us and I can’t thank her enough for everything.

Rebecca M.

“We really appreciated Erin’s feedback and ability to give us an attainable sleep schedule. I was super sleep deprived and ready to make the changes we needed! Erin was great about taking into account our baby’s developmental needs and our needs for sleep and making that into an action plan. I have recommended Tiny Transitions to other friends who may be in need of support through sleep skills.

Alicia

“Erin was wonderful and supportive the whole process. She met us where we were and tailored the plan specifically to my daughter. We saw results within 3 days and she has been sleeping like a champ since then! Well worth the investment to get us some sleep again!

Linda D, 5 months old

“Erin SAVED ME!! My daughter was 5 months old when I reached out to Tiny Transitions, at that point she would only sleep on me (all naps and bedtime) and it was torture. Erin developed a gradual plan to get her in her own bassinet and, eventually, her own crib in her own room! She guided me, with utmost patience, through an ear infection and a few stubborn baby set backs. I’ve already recommended Tiny Transitions to a few people, before we even finished the program.

Thank you Erin! You are the best!

Ariana I, 5 months old

“Tiny Transitions was a life saver for me with my first child ( and will be used for future children). I started with my daughter when she was five months old. I could only get her to bed through feeding her and multiple put down with constant wake ups. Instantly I was taught how to put my baby down without feeding and on her own which turned my 2 hour bedtime routine into 30 minutes.I also then was taught how to get her to nap on her own and on a schedule. My daughter can now sleep anywhere ( on vacation, in a hotel, at grandma or her aunts house), as long as she has her hatch and darkness!! Erin was SO SO SO sweet, kind, personable and helpful. It did take some time to get my daughter to sleep through the night but, baby steps! She is now 8 months and sleeping 8pm-6 am with no wake ups. What a game changer!!!! THANK YOU TINY TRANSITIONS AND ERIN!!!!
