My family was so blessed to have found Kris as our Night Nurse in February of 2016! My husband at the time was playing for the Colorado Avalanche Hockey team in Denver and had just had back surgery and our baby girl Stella decide to make an entrance 2 weeks early. We have two boys 15 months apart that we’re 7 and 8 at the time and I knew how hard it would be to keep up with their busy school/hockey schedule! So when a friend highly recommended Kris and said it would be the best gift I could give to myself, my baby and my family, they were so right! Even though I had experience and this wasn’t my first baby, Kris came over and showed me helpful baby training tips and loads of new information that I never would have known. I only wish I had been able to use her when my boys were born. She had Stella sleeping on a 7-7 schedule by the time she was just a few weeks old and now a year later, she is still on the same set schedule. This truly has been the best experience and I would highly recommend Kris to anyone looking for a Night Nurse!! 🙂

If you are searching for help with getting your baby to sleep look no further than Kris! She is amazing and full of so much knowledge! I had read EVERY sleep book and blog and thought I had heard/knew it all, yet my baby went through a 4-month sleep regression BAD. After sleeping on the floor of his nursery a few nights and feeling like I was spending all day in a dark room rocking my son I knew I needed the help of a person and not a book. My husband will say this was the best money we ever spent! She is without a doubt worth it.

After reading her schedule I felt like it couldn’t possibly work because I had already known so much of it from the research I did. All I needed was her guidance for a few nights and our son started sleeping through the night within days! He was a tough one (A fear of missing out baby) and we continued to have issues with naps but Kris was there to help for all of it. I went back to her helpful tips again and again. We seriously felt like we got our life back, we had energy to love well again because we were getting sleep!

When I talked to friends or moms of babies I felt like I had to be careful not to brag about how much my baby slept. Kris is such a lifesaver and wonderful to work with! If you’re thinking about hiring her, do it, there’s no question we would do it again for every baby.

I am the mother of a very active 3 year old and had my second boy in April. After months of sleepless nights, we had to make a change. Per the recommendation of two friends, we called Kris.

Within 3 nights, our baby was sleeping 12 hours per night. She helped us put him on a schedule during the day and got him to nap for hours as opposed to sleeping in 20 minute increments.

Kris taught us that there is no such thing as a “bad sleeper.” We are so grateful that she was able to turn our baby’s sleeping schedule around.

She is professional, reliable, and extremely knowledgeable. We highly recommend her to all families with new babies.

If you’re reading this review you are probably like we were – at our wits end, completely sleep deprived, and seemingly helpless. Our second daughter just would not sleep! After one particularly desperate night of waking up every 45 minutes at 10 weeks I reached out to Kris. Two days later she was at our house observing us and teaching us “the way”. I was hopeful but somewhat skeptical, but I committed to do exactly what she said. Three days later we were waking up 2 times at night instead of 9….a few days later we were waking up once…and we have had two nights of completely sleeping through the night. IM NOT KIDDING! I know it sounds too good to be true based on where we were before we hired her, but if you follow and trust in her advice it will work. At least it did for us. We were about to drop three times the cost of hiring her on a Snoo bassinet. I say this because she is worth every penny. She’s responsive to all of our questions and provides support up until our daughter’s first birthday. Cannot recommend her enough! Do yourself a favor and just hire her already so you can get some much needed sleep.

First of all, if you don’t hire this woman you are CRAZY! She is AMAZING!!!

Our son was 4 1/2 months old and still waking up 2 to 3 times from 6pm to 6am. My husband and I were EXHAUSTED! Not even joking, like a miracle Kris’s information popped up on our neighborhood app and my husband suggested we speak with her. I was totally apprehensive at first feeling like an inadequate parent for not being able to get my own child to go to sleep. WRONG!!! So many parents go through the same thing because they have absolutely no idea how important sleep is to a baby and how to perfect this delicate art.

Kris offers many services, but the one we chose was an in home consultation. She spent so much time with us giving us EXTREMELY VALUABLE information. She walked all of us through some pretty simple steps that I knew I could repeat and stick to. Ok so here is the best part …. are you ready … OUR SON STARTED SLEEPING 11 – 12 hours WITH IN 2 NIGHTS (he woke up only a couple of times those 2 nights but learned how to soothe himself with in 10 to 15 minutes)!!!!! I can’t even tell you what an amazing gift this is not only for us as parents, but also for our son!!!!

The last thing that I have to put in this review is that when you hire her, make sure you keep an open mind and follow her suggestions. It’s hard to let go of the current control but she is the expert!!! And she will take really WONDERFUL care of you and your Little One!!!!

We contacted Kris when our daughter was almost 8 weeks old and was beginning to develop some bad sleeping habits. It was driving us crazy and we knew that it wasn’t good for her. We live in Breckenridge and there wasn’t anyone in our area that we knew of that could help us. My husband found Kris on the internet and called her. She had us begin logging our baby’s behavior for a few days and then set us up with a schedule. It worked immediately. Our daughter was sleeping and eating and was just so much more pleasant to be around. Knowing what was going to happen in her day seemed to give her a sense of calm and it helped us with being able to get (somewhat) back to a normal life and get things done. Though, we have never met Kris in person, and have only worked with her on the phone and through email she has completely changed what life with an infant is like for us. She makes herself available and is extremely helpful with any questions that I have asked her. And being a first time parent, there have been many! My advice would be to contact her and get ahead of the game before any issues arise.

We could not be happier with our experience at Hush A Bye Newborns and with Kris. The four month sleep regression hit us hard. Our daughter was waking every 45 minutes at night, and we were rocking her back to sleep each time. In addition, she was sleeping in a Rock N Play, and we knew she needed to transition into her crib, and out of a swaddle. We had attempted this on our own five separate times and it was an utter disaster for everyone! Kris spent time in our home giving us guidance and feedback after observing our bedtime routine. Our daughter was successfully sleeping in the crib in two nights! Kris also gave us the most helpful information we’ve received about healthy food options and other tips to best care for our daughter. Those tips have saved us several times since! Finally, what we most appreciated is that Kris worked with what is best for our family. She didn’t try to force any ideas or products on us. She listened and worked with exactly what we felt we needed. She still answers calls, texts and emails as new questions arise, and she guides us through each challenge until we get to the other side. My only regret is that we didn’t start working with her as soon as our daughter was born! I would highly recommend her.

It is difficult to put into words how amazing it was to work with Kris. We made arrangements with Kris prior to our daughters birth. Two weeks after she was born we began working on the sleep shaping. While a two week old is not going to fully comprehend was is occurring, it did help her (and us) get into a routine. By 10 weeks she was sleeping in 7-8 hour night spans and by 12 weeks she was and continues to sleep ~12 hours.

Throughout the process Kris was accommodating to our schedule changes and always arrived on time. While this service is not inexpensive, it is very much worth the cost and we would not hesitate to use Kris again should we have another child. We now have learned the best ways to help our daughter feel and sleep her best.

Thuy and I wanted to thank you for all the support you provided after we brought the twins home. Being first time parents, the thought of dealing with two baby girls was more than daunting and we were more than a little terrified, especially having them 6 weeks early! We had read many articles, but knew we were not prepared for the real thing. We spoke to other couples who had been through similar situations and they recommended hiring a night-nanny. So, after interviewing several candidates, we hired you. Our decision to hire you more than paid off. You provided much needed knowledge, experience, patience and skill and made what could have been an extremely difficult time for us more than manageable. You not only educated us in the basics of infant care, but also provided us with the opportunity to obtain a good night’s sleep so we could actually enjoy the experience, rather than suffer through it. We thank you again, wish you the best, and heartily recommend your services to any couple who might be heading into a similar position. Thank you, Kris.
