I help sleep deprived parents transform sleep in their home! www.lovinglessonslearned.com She loves to see the choices they are making in each season of life.

💤Irene Gouge is trained as a Gentle Sleep Coach (2011), Postpartum Doula (2019), and Infant Feeding Specialist (2020). She graduated from Illinois State University in 2000 with a Bachelor of Science in Education.

💜Irene’s desire to become a sleep coach was based on the sleepless nights she experienced with her own newborn son many years ago. While always having a passion for teaching children - in the classroom, in her home daycare, and at a daycare center, she began to understand the impact that sleeplessness had on children and their families.

💜Her passion for working with newborns as a postpartum doula and infant feeding specialist, is rooted in recognizing a parent's need for support during this unique season of life. Reflecting back on her own experiences as a new mother, Irene recognizes how different her own parenting story would have been if she had someone to encourage, support, and educate her in how to make informed decisions that every new mom has questions about.

💜Irene has helped hundreds of tired parents implement gentle sleep solutions and positive parenting strategies for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. She has advanced training and hands on experience in Perinatal Mood & Anxiety Disorders (PMAD), Sensory Processing Disorders, Reflux and GERD. She understands the impact that those disorders may have on feeding, sleep, and play patterns. Known for her ability to build a loving, trusting and secure relationship between the child and parent; Irene uses a loving, trustful, compassionate and nonjudgemental approach to parenting. Irene makes sleep-filled nights and sweet dreams a reality for families.

💜Irene is originally from Chicago but worked at Disney after college. Now a resident of Holly Springs, NC since 2004, she enjoys spending time with her two sons, Connor and Bailey (who have inspired her work) and her husband Keith. In her spare time Irene can often be found cheering on her sons in lacrosse, soccer and baseball. Irene also enjoys reading, drinking coffee, listening to podcasts, and supporting women in their own business adventures!

⭐️Irene has been on her own personal journey of becoming a calm, confident, and rested parent!

Okay, how many fingers did you put down? 😂👇
If you’re currently holding up approximately zero fingers, welcome. You’re among friends.

Because parenting through sleep struggles can make even the most confident parent start questioning EVERYTHING.

Should bedtime be earlier?
Are they overtired?
Do they need another nap?
Am I creating a bad habit?
Why did this work LAST WEEK?!

Here’s your reminder:
Your child’s sleep changing doesn’t mean you’ve done something wrong.
Babies, toddlers, and preschoolers are constantly developing. Their sleep needs change. Their connection needs change. Their routines change.

And sometimes what worked beautifully before doesn’t work for the child in front of you today.

Instead of immediately searching for the next sleep trick, try getting curious:
💜 What’s changed recently?
💜 What is my child’s behavior communicating?
💜 Are their current sleep needs different?
💜 Is connection, regulation, feeding or environment playing a role?
💜 What does our family need right now?

You don’t need to have every answer.
And you definitely don’t need to parent according to someone else’s perfect sleep schedule on Instagram. I have 5 places to start so you don’t have to leave your child to cry it out in my free guide.

Sleep isn’t always something you can “fix” in a few nights.

And that’s because we’re not just looking at sleep. We’re looking at a whole child AND a whole family.

Their development. Their needs. Their environment. Their relationships. What’s happening during the day. And how parents are feeling through all of it.

When I work with families, I’m not looking for the fastest way to get a child sleeping independently. I’m looking to understand WHY sleep is challenging in the first place.

And sometimes that takes time.

Children need time to learn, adjust, and feel supported.

Parents need time to understand what’s happening, build confidence, and figure out what works for their family.

That’s why I don’t believe in rushing families through a one-size-fits-all solution.

The goal isn’t just better sleep tonight. It’s helping families feel confident navigating sleep long after our time together ends. 💜

I’m curious: What would you expect from a sleep coach at that price point?
