Welcome!

We're Julie Wright and Heather Turgeon — MFTs, psychotherapists, and authors of the best-selling book The Happy Sleeper.

We're also both moms, so we know what it feels like to be desperate for sleep while also wanting, above all else, what's best for our babies.

We created The Happy Sleeper method to give parents a science-based, developmental approach to healthy sleep and a healthy bond. We’ve helped over 100,000 parents achieve this goal, and we’re excited to help you too!

Baby sleep advice can be confusing, outdated, and polarized. It doesn’t have to be.

We will teach you the methods that unleash your babys natural ability to sleep. The Sleep Wave is a gentle, responsive approach that’s extremely effective—satisfying your baby’s need for both emotional attunement and a full night’s sleep.
