A place to learn dream rest grow and thrive.

Hi, I’m Madalena Severim de Melo, a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant and proud mother of three. Sleep has become my greatest passion and obsession… but it wasn’t always like this.
Before embracing this path, I worked in sales and finance in the fast-moving consumer goods industry, where long days and short nights were simply part of the routine.

When my first baby arrived, I quickly realized he wasn’t one of those one-in-a-million sleepyhead babies. Nights felt endless, naps were a battle, and I was as overwhelmed as I ever did. For months, I tried to keep life as it was before, while sneaking into his room countless times per night, desperately looking for a quick fix to help him drift off. Exhaustion took over, and that’s when my true journey with sleep began.

Helping my son get the rest he needed and deserved for his healthy development became my mission. And for our home, restful nights the dream most wished for.

After reading everything I could get my hands on and reaching to a couple of sleep therapists, I turned my firstborn into a little big snoozer. And that was the trick up my sleeve, to embrace the adventure of giving birth to three babies in less than four years.

Of course, a few mistakes were still made here and there with my daughters. But by the time my youngest turned one, everyone in our home had been enjoying restorative, peaceful nights for quite some time.
Along the way, friends and family began coming to me for advice. And that’s when I realized: this wasn’t just my journey anymore. Helping other families find their way to better sleep was what I truly wanted to do.

I am certified by the Family Sleep Institute, a pioneer in the field of pediatric sleep consulting education, offering a comprehensive, evidence-based curriculum combined with a practical mentorship program.
