Who I am
Hi, I’m Paola. I know what it feels like to watch a family run on empty, and I know that what you need isn’t more generic advice, it’s a plan that actually works for your baby.
I’m a certified pediatric sleep consultant credentialed through the Center for Pediatric Sleep Management (CPSM), and I’m the founder of Rested Little, based in Skokie, Illinois. Before this, I was a teacher and a nanny, which is a long way of saying I’ve spent most of my adult life with other people’s children and I’ve never met two who were the same.
I work with babies and toddlers from 4 to 36 months, the age range where sleep habits form, break, and can genuinely be rebuilt. My methods are responsive and evidence-based. That means I’ll never hand you a single script and tell you it’s the only way. Some families want to stay in the room the whole time. Some want a faster approach. Both are valid, and the plan is built around the one you can actually follow at 2am.
Everything is 100% virtual, which means I work with families across the Chicago area, Skokie, Evanston, Wilmette, Niles, Morton Grove, Lincolnwood, Glenview and Park Ridge and with families anywhere in the United States and Latin America. Consultations, written plans, and every message in between are available in English or in Spanish. Not translated. Written for you, in the language you think in.
I’m here to give you the tools, the support, and the confidence to finally get the rest your whole family deserves.
