We cannot recommend Alana and Sleeping Beauties highly enough. From the moment she joined our family, Alana brought a sense of calm, confidence, and support that changed everything for us. She helped our baby sleep through the night and guided our whole family into a routine that we still follow today.
Every morning we woke up to a tidied home— ready for the day ahead. Alana truly takes the time to get to know your baby and understand “what works,” adapting her care to fit their needs perfectly.
She was always extremely responsive, and even now continues to be a reliable resource whenever we have questions. Her professionalism, kindness, and expertise made a world of difference for us. We recommend Alana to everyone. She is simply wonderful.
We were visiting the area for a week and needed overnight help with our newborn. Alana picked up the phone at 10pm and arranged care for the next day. Shanice was the caregiver that came over and she was amazing! She was prompt, usually came earlier, took wonderful care of the baby and we couldn’t have asked for better help. I wish I could’ve taken her home with us :). Highly recommended and I know we will be in good hands if we need help again.
Working with Sleeping Beauties Newborn Care Agency was one of the best decisions we made as first-time parents. We were nervous about the transition home, but Alana made everything so easy. She was responsive from day one and helped us find the perfect match for our family. She even sent a list of baby essentials before our son arrived, which turned out to be so helpful.
We were paired with Kemeisha as our Newborn Care Specialist, and she was incredible. When our son came three weeks early, Alana and Kemeisha adjusted right away and made us feel completely supported. From our first night home, Kemeisha’s calm presence and thoughtful guidance gave us so much peace of mind. She showed up every night on time, answered all our questions, and helped our baby settle into a healthy sleep routine.
By the end of twelve weeks, our son was sleeping beautifully—and we were too. We can’t thank Kemeisha and Alana enough for their care, professionalism, and kindness. If you want to actually rest and enjoy those early weeks, Sleeping Beauties Newborn Care Agency is the best support you could ask for.
As a first time mom, I was scared and skeptical about leaving my baby overnight with someone. But I knew we needed the help. I am SO GLAD we decided to work with Alana at Sleeping Beauties. Alana was fantastic in addressing all my fears and sent us Karen as our night nurse for a 3 week stay. Karen was simply AMAZING! She was calm, knowledgeable and professional, and helped get our daughter on an amazing sleep schedule after she left. Highly recommend them for anyone that needs help at night with their baby.
We had the absolutely best experience with Sleeping Beauties! I contacted them out of desperation when my second baby was 3.5 weeks old, he's sleeping worse and worse and sleep deprivation was really getting to me, emotionally and physically. Alana was very good with communication, she listened to what I needed, and got me set up with a newborn care specialist within a couple of days! Naadirah was who I was matched with, and I couldn't recommend her enough! She was always on time, professional and friendly, always listened to my needs, got on great with all my family members and most importantly, took good care of my son. With Alana's system and Naadirah's care, I saw an instant improvement with my son's sleep, and it continued to get better. Throughout the process, Alana constantly checked in with us, and tailored the sleep program to fit my son's situation. During the 5 weeks of care, not only was my son sleeping better, but I was also sleeping better, recovering better and feeling sane again. Even though the care has ended, I'm still following their sleep program, and am fairly confident that my son will start sleeping through the night soon. If I'm having another baby, I would definitely hire them again! All in all, I would 100% recommend Sleeping Beauties to families who need care for their newborn!
After reading countless glowing reviews of Sleeping Beauties, I reached out with high hopes—and I'm so glad I did. We were incredibly fortunate that Alana was available for our due date, as she books up fast, and now I completely understand why.
From the very beginning, Alana’s communication was exceptional. She provided us with a curated list of nursery essentials, checked in frequently, and shared a wealth of resources that helped us feel prepared and supported in ways we didn’t even know we needed. As first-time parents, that guidance was priceless.
Although our baby Brooks arrived a little later than expected, Alana was in constant contact leading up to the birth and was there for us the very first night we brought him home. I started off breastfeeding, and Alana’s expertise as a lactation educator made a huge difference. She offered hands-on tips for latching, encouraged methods to help bring in my milk, and even recommended a lactation consultant to ensure I had all the support I needed. Every morning, she would bring me a warm cup of Mother’s Milk tea and fill my water bottle—small gestures that meant so much during those early, exhausting days.
From day one, Alana came in with a thoughtful and structured six-week plan tailored to Brooks' development and our family’s goals. She focused on weight gain, healthy sleep foundations, and ensuring we were set up for success long after her time with us ended. Thanks to her expert guidance, Brooks began sleeping through the night by six weeks, and we feel confident navigating the next chapter on our own.
Alana’s routine- and schedule-oriented approach brought a sense of calm and order into our home. Everything—from the nursery to the laundry—was meticulously organized and spotless. Bath time felt like a spa experience for Brooks, and it was clear how much he adored her. Even our dog, Rusty, was smitten! She also encouraged us to take a few date nights during her stay, reminding us that caring for ourselves as a couple was just as important.
Beyond the practical support, Alana empowered us with essential parenting skills: from trimming tiny fingernails and cleaning baby noses to mastering bath time and daily care routines. She gave us the confidence to trust our instincts and truly enjoy this special time.
A standout part of our experience was the app Alana introduced us to, which became an integral tool. Although she was only contracted for nights, she went above and beyond—creating a personalized daytime schedule, checking in during the day, and providing detailed notes, insights, and encouragement each morning. It felt like we had 24/7 support. She was also flexible and willing to stay additional nights when unexpected situations arose, which meant the world to us.
Alana was consistently punctual, deeply knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. She brought warmth, structure, and peace into our home—and truly is a baby whisperer. Brooks is thriving, and so are we.
If we’re lucky enough to have a second baby, Alana will be the first person we call—l
right after a positive pregnancy test! Working with Sleeping Beauties was one of the best investments we've ever made, and we would wholeheartedly recommend Alana to any family. It felt like the full package—and we couldn’t be more grateful.
My wife and I worked with Alana to source a night nurse to provide support a few nights per week. We contacted Alana after our daughter arrived after realizing as first time parents that we could use extra help during the overnight hours as I returned to work. Alana quickly found us a great candidate in her network and most importantly, continued her constant engagement to ensure our daughter developed great sleeping habits and daily routines / feeding schedules which have allowed her to thrive. Alana was always a phone call or text message away if we had any questions and provides great care, encouragement, and support for the entire family. We highly recommend using Sleeping Beauties!
I was referred to Sleeping Beauties Newborn Care Agency by my cousin, who had an incredible experience with them for her own baby’s sleep training. After seeing the results firsthand, I knew I had to give them a try, and I’m so glad I did. From the very beginning, their care, structure, and support made a remarkable difference in Bella’s progress, bringing a sense of calm and flow to her world, and by extension, to our household.
We began services when my daughter, Bella, was about two months old. Bella has been sleeping through the night since three and a half months old. With the team’s guidance, we successfully removed the swaddle and weaned her off the pacifier, milestones that can be incredibly difficult for most families. Alana provided the structure and the tools I needed to continue reinforcing the routine during the day, while the team handled every night. They were there to support Bella during her rolling-over phase, and with Alana’s help, we introduced solids as well. At almost six months old, Bella is absolutely thriving, taking independent, structured daytime naps and sleeping fully through the night.
The peace of mind this brought me as a parent is something I can’t even put into words.
Because we wanted full care coverage, we had the opportunity to work with the phenomenal doulas Naadira, Shanadeen, Karae, and Alana herself. Alana created a personalized routine and scheduling system specifically for Bella, one that was thoughtfully adjusted as she grew, always in sync with her temperament and development. Every doula followed the system exactly, and so did I during the day. You’d think working with multiple people would feel disjointed, but that was never the case. They were always on time, never missed a single night, updated the app daily with detailed overnight notes, and answered every one of my many questions. Alana was with us personally for about six weeks, fine-tuning everything and making sure Bella was exactly where she needed to be before she transitioned out. She’s a true expert, a baby whisperer, and the care we received from the entire team was nothing short of exceptional.
Bella is happy, well-rested, and thriving in every way. I recommend Sleeping Beauties to every parent I meet. If you're looking for real expertise, proven results, and high-quality care at reasonable rates, this is the agency you want.
Karen and Karae were my saviors with my newborn. We had Karen from weeks 0-4 and Karae 4-8 and both were incredible. Most importantly I felt so safe and comfortable leaving my baby with them. They and Alana were amazing at getting her on a schedule that we could follow once they finished. We couldn’t be happier with Sleeping Beauties and would recommend to anyone.
We worked with Sleeping Beauties to find a sitter for our 8 week old while visiting Philadelphia. They paired us with Karae who was thoughtful, caring, and very thorough. We were initially so anxious to be traveling with our newborn but we felt as though our daughter was in great hands and would highly recommend Sleeping Beauties services!
We had the pleasure of working with Dalia for six weeks, and we truly couldn’t be more grateful for the care and support she provided. From the start, the agency was responsive, professional, and thoughtful in matching us with the right night nurse.
Thanks to Dalia, we were able to get the rest we desperately needed, knowing our baby was in excellent hands each night. She offered helpful guidance, respected our preferences, and was a reassuring source of support. We highly recommend Sleeping Beauties Newborn Care Agency to any family looking for reliable overnight care. Their service made a world of difference for us.
Absolutely INCREDIBLE. I could not say nicer things about Alana and Karen. Karen was here on time every single night, she was the perfect mix of professionalism and a sense of humor to always put us at ease. She was with us for 7 weeks and I think we would have died without her. She helped so much with advice on feeding, washing, and soothing the baby. She was always so patient and kind. She has a huge amount of knowledge and experience and we felt amazing in her hands. I loved it whenever she came over, it allowed us to rest so we could conquer the next day with confidence (with Karen's undying support!). I would recommend her ten thousand percent. If we could have her over all the time - we would. She is absolutely lovely and is a great caretaker. Again - I can't say nicer things!
We had a wonderful experience with Alana taking care of our newborn twins. Her expertise and guidance as we navigated becoming a family of 5 was invaluable. The twins were born 3 weeks early and having her guidance to help us get on a structured routine, find bottles for both girls to latch too, amount to feed per session, techniques to soothe the babies and extending their sleep stretches all while I healed post c-section was such a relief. She seamlessly integrated into our nighttime routine and kept laundry/bottles washed and put away. We would highly recommend Alana and her company to anyone bringing home a new baby especially if you have multiples and/or a toddler already at home! THANK YOU, Alana!
Alana was incredible and the service is 1000% worth it. In 6 weeks she had our whole house on a routine and the baby was sleeping 6+ hrs at night. Was a beautiful experience, thank you Alana!
We had an incredible experience with Sleeping Beauties. We got paired an amazing care taker Shanadeen and as new parents she taught us everything! She was patient, kind and our son absolutely adored her. Shanadeen was nurturing, supportive and always helpful, no matter what the question or situation. We would be lost without her!
Alana came to our rescue when we were very sleep deprived at three weeks post partum managing to find someone to help night nurse for us at a moment’s notice. She initiated a schedule, after taking the time to review our goals, and helped me adapt my child to the schedule with multiple phone call checks ins. Karen was our night nurse and she was professional and helpful, as well as instructive. She provided me peace of mind that my infant was well cared for while I rested. She brought my infant to me for nursing throughout the night, cleaned pump parts and helped us enforce the needed schedule. We worked with Alana and Karen from weeks 3-8 and could not have been more appreciative or grateful for the help. The schedule has lasted us beyond Karen’s departure. Importantly, our child at 8 weeks was waking up only 2x a night, a goal we had established at the start. I am so happy with our experience with Sleeping Beauties and cannot recommend the service highly enough. They help you structure your infant experience helping you rest and better appreciate time together during the day.
Nothing but praise for Alana and her entire team at Sleeping Beauties Newborn Care Agency. My husband and I chose to work with Alana for the arrival of our second child and we consider ourselves lucky to have found her agency. Alana was incredibly responsive from the moment of our initial contact, always making time to answer our questions. She truly goes out of her way to accommodate her clients. We were paired with Karen Henry as our Newborn Care Specialist and to say that she was, and is, a literal angel would be a true understatement. Karen was the perfect fit for our family. She was able to anticipate our needs before they materialized and it was as if she magically floated around our house. She was AMAZING and her knowledge in newborn care is unparalleled. We also had the pleasure of working directly with Alana as our NCS while Karen was away on a preplanned vacation, and she too was FABULOUS and immensely knowledgeable. Both Karen and Alana work with you to ensure your needs are constantly met and troubleshoot any issues that arise. This was the best decision we made as we transitioned to a family of 4 and we are beyond grateful to both Alana and Karen.
I had a wonderful experience sleep training my son with Sleeping Beauties. Alana, Karen, and Angela were extremely thoughtful, caring, and nurturing with him. When I called to speak with Alana, the owner, she was extremely responsive and spent time talking me through the process so I felt comfortable with the schedule and the goals for my son. He is doing well and sleeping through the night since training! Thank you again.
