"Sophie writes the way she coaches in real life. If you're looking for a friend and mentor to guide you through parenting, this is the book for you."

“This book was a game changer in the way I engage with my children. Although my daughter and son have always been good sleepers, the deeper understanding that this book provides fosters a more meaningful, more connected relationship with my little ones. Thank you.”
–Samantha, Parent

“Sophie has done something I desperately needed; she’s made easily understandable some incredibly effective practices and philosophies in a down-to-earth, practical way. Her recommendations are drawn from scientific research (which for me is a requirement for any good parenting resource) and a deep background in on-the-ground experience effectively supporting parents. Sleep Play Love resonated with my own research, as well as intuition, and I’m bolstered knowing I’ve got the concepts and practices in this book in my parenting toolkit.”
–Liberty, Early Childhood Educator

“This book is a game changer for babies and parents.”
- Gina, Parent

“Sophie's book has been an absolute lifesaver. As a busy mother of four, her practical no-fuss solutions to sleep have been our secret weapon during growth spurts and developmental milestones.”
- Cindy, Holistic Health Practitioner

“I turned to this book amidst my son’s four-month sleep regression. What I loved most was how real, relatable (and digestible) all of the information is. It really helped me to understand normal baby development, and at the same time, providing simple, yet kind and effective strategies to use at four months and beyond. I will continue to refer to this book as my boy gets older and we face different challenges with sleep and behavior.”
–Allison, Parent

“The Sleep Play Love Book presents a countless number of invaluable parenting tools that I use to connect with my children on a daily basis; deepening our bond. Sophie's loving approach to parenting resonates with my heart more than any other, and I appreciate the knowledge I have gained so much I almost considered having another child just so I could put it into practice at the newborn and infant stages!”
–Erika, Parent
