- Dee Ubhaus -
Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant, Lactation Counselor
& Postpartum Doula
Hey there! I'm Dee - wife and mom to four wild (and cuddly) girls! I'm all about helping you during the early years of momhood -- from the fourth trimester through the (not so) fun toddler sleep shenanigans.
​
With four littles practically on top of each other in age (4 kids in 5 years), I realized that mastering sleep was the missing key to keeping me and my husband from turning into sleep-deprived zombies for our kiddos.
Fast forward to 2021, after our last baby was born (& my 4th c-section), I decided it was time to pay it forward and help other parents navigate the never ending "am I doing this right" question of early parenthood. Don't be fooled, whether it's your first or fourth, there are still questions and help that is needed!
​
In early 2022, I dove headfirst into a sleep consultant certification program, and by April 2022, I proudly earned my stripes as a certified sleep guru through CPSM.
​
Since I have such a passion to help moms, I decided to start my CLC program in 2024! Every feeding journey is different and I want to support YOU as a mom, on your journey without the lactivist crap. I, diving into everything mom related from prenatal to 4 years; I want to be your go to mama bestie on speed dial! We're in this together, and we're going to conquer it all!
​
By the end of 2024, after moving back to New Jersey - I also decided that why not help moms even more, straight from birth! I started my Postpartum Doula training in November of 2024 with ICEA and have been helping moms both in-person and virtually from the time their little one is born!
Now, let's talk about my gaggle of girls – my kids. They've taken me on a wild ride. Firstborn? A total sleep & feeding champion, jackpot style! Number two? She was the sleep troublemaker, paving the way for my sleep expertise. Number three? That's when I got into the whole newborn sleep shaping thing. And then there's the fourth, who taught me the real nitty-gritty of nursing and sleep – no holds barred!
​
But let's keep it real – I'm a bona fide mom. Some days I've got this mom-hood thing nailed; other days, I'm counting down the minutes until bedtime. The kiddos are knee-deep in activities, and some days I feel like a chauffeur on speed.
On the flip side, there are those glorious days when I let them run wild, overdose on TV, munch on all the snacks, while I drown out their bickering with my trusty headphones. Who knew that four girls, ages 3 to 9, could dish out so much drama so young? Haha, the joys!
​
When I'm not doing the mom hustle, I'm a foodie (thanks to my chef dad and hubs), a semi-avid reader, a beach lover, and a couch potato late night. Bonus points if I fall asleep during our show – it's the ultimate mom achievement, right? Let's keep this mom life real and fun! 🌟😴
​
Fun Fact: My Jersey accent was so thick when I was younger, I truly didn't know there was an -er and the end of the word drawer - It's a draw! Fuggetaboutit!
​
my philosphy
Parenting is hard! Sleep can be hard but doesn't have to be! Ever since becoming a mama in 2015, I feel strongly about normalizing the normal! Not every day is perfect when you have one (or more!) littles ones at foot! Somedays you feel like you have conquered the world and other days you felt yourself spinning in circles. We've all been there; I still have days like that!
Empowering you as a mom is where it's at! From newborn sleep to ready made meals to sleep regressions to feeding struggles to your toddler's strong will - I will help you get to the other side!
Even on those rough days, having a solid foundation for sleep and knowing that your little one and you can be well rested can make or break those spinning in circles type of days. When it comes to sleep: I empower families who are ready for a sleep transformation to get the support they deserve while also getting the rest that they need to be the best versions of themselves for their children, partners, families and friends.
