โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜… 5.0 on Google ยท Kind words from real families

"Consistent all the way through."

"You will experience first class professionalism from Kierstin. She is nonjudgemental, deeply knowledgeable, and truly invested in your success. So many services come on strong to impress and fade over time. Not here. It was consistent all the way through. You will have the support you need."

"I wish we had reached out sooner!"

"I wish we had reached out to Kierstin sooner! She developed a plan that worked for our family and we saw success within a few nights. She was quick to answer our questions and always checked in to see how the nights were going. Everyone in our house is happy and sleeping much better!"

"She meets you at your comfort level."

"Kierstin meets you and your family at your comfort level and really works with you to reach your goals. She is so kind and incredibly knowledgeable, and our check ins often branched into other parts of parenting where she had helpful insights."

"From very little sleep to sleeping through the night."

"Kierstin is quick to respond and gives answers unique to you and your child. Happy to say my baby sleeps soundly, with only a couple small changes and amazing encouragement. Highly recommend!"

"She didn't promise a miracle pill."

"Kierstin didn't promise a miracle pill. She really asked the questions and listened to us to get to know our girl, then gave us the tools, resources, and tips to roll out the plan. Her regular check ins kept us positive! Our daughter is now fully potty trained and even sleeps through the night without an accident."

"Even years later, I still think of Kierstin."

"Kierstin guided my husband and I through strategies, techniques, and programming to help deal with a temperamental toddler. She is simply the very best, and I cannot recommend her enough! Even years later now, I still think of Kierstin anytime I'm having trouble with my kids."

"My kids aren't giving me a hard time. They're having a hard time."

"I found a lot of value in the Nest. It was a wonderful reminder that my kids aren't giving me a hard time, they are simply having a hard time. I appreciated being able to ask questions without judgement and have other parents share as well, it takes a village!"

"Many others are going through the same thing."

"The Nest was great because it featured real, local moms sharing honest insights into their struggles. It was a powerful reminder that many others are going through the same thing, and that giving yourself grace is key."

"Don't wait until your breaking point to get help."

"Being a first time mom with ZERO experience with children, I seriously could not have accomplished what I have without Calming Roots. We were able to establish a great sleep routine which has helped ME SLEEP and keep our whole family sane."

"In a week, with a few simple tools, I feel like a better mom."

"She listens with patience and understanding to your sometimes silly questions. The kindness she shows in her explanations and mindful answers is exactly what moms need to hear. 100% highly recommend working with her."

"Having guidance in real time was life changing."

"We were amazed at how quickly our son's sleep improved! Kierstin handled multiple regressions with ease and got us right back on track. Battling through regressions on our own while exhausted would have been impossible, we would have been lost at sea. Having guidance on hand in real time was life changing. We just wish we had reached out sooner!"

"She literally is a kid whisperer."

"She has restored sanity, calm and parental confidence for me on more than one occasion."

"I leave the Nest with confidence."

"Kierstin is so knowledgeable in everything child and parenting. I am grateful for Kierstin's gentle reminders, relatable experiences, and genuine care for all the participants. I leave the Nest with confidence that I can implement her strategies into my everyday parenting."

"I expanded my parenting tool kit, all in a few days!"

"The Nest is a safe space to learn about self-regulation, holding boundaries and showing up for our kids in the best way we can. Kierstin brings lots of good energy, knowledge, and strategies to the table."

"Kierstin is a miracle worker!"

"I had been struggling to get my son to nap on his own and in a short time working with her, he was. She even checks in after you are no longer working with her."

"Bedtimes are amazing now."

"Bedtimes are amazing now. Super easy, he falls asleep at a great time every night. Kierstin made sure I stayed on top of the plan and went above and beyond for my son."

"Absolutely amazing with kids of all ages."

"Very knowledgeable about everyday struggles that a parent can have and understands how a child reacts to different situations. She is very friendly and always quick to respond when questions arise."

"So knowledgeable, kind and amazing."

"I couldn't recommend her enough for ANY of your early childhood parenting needs."
