Most sleep issues are not medical problems but rather behavior problems that can be a combination of children and parent interaction during bedtime. In addition to her graduate education, Tammy has done extensive research on sleep and the different methodologies for address sleep issues.

She has been doing sleep consulting for more than four years, both to families in the U.S and in Singapore.

Why I got into sleep

I became interested in baby and child sleep issues shortly after my son was born because he had very bad colic and difficulties sleeping; he'd wake 5-6 times during the night and napping was impossible during the first months of his life.

 I didn't find any of the sleep resources I needed here in Singapore and went on to do extensive research and self-education on pediatric sleep issues and sleep training. I can understand and sympathize with moms and dads who are struggling with their child’s sleep. I want to help parents learn the skills to solve their problems as well as avoid sleep problems.
