Hi, I’m Karen Winter, a certified pediatric sleep consultant specializing in toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2–7). I know how exhausting sleep challenges can be, I’ve been there as a parent myself. That personal experience, along with over 20 years of working with children, fuels my passion for helping families overcome bedtime battles, nighttime wake-ups, nap refusals, and other toddler sleep struggles with confidence and clarity.

From bedtime resistance to middle-of-the-night wake-ups and nap transitions, I specialize in helping families with children ages 2–7 build healthy sleep habits without power struggles or confusion.

My name is Danyale Washington. I graduated with my B.S. in Psychology from Concordia University Chicago. After working for over a decade in various facets of childcare and education —as well as having two children of my own— I have seen countless times, as well as witnessed myself as a parent, the lack of support and resources. My passion for helping others and dedication to children and their families reaching their full potential has always been a big part of who I am. It has continuously fueled me to pursue a career in doing just that–offering my insight and expertise to help those I serve feel confident and well-equipped to foster healthy development in children. My philosophy is rooted in empowerment, positivism, and compassion. It is at the core of all my services. My approach is strength-based and client-centered. It focuses on being an aid to those I provide support to in using the tools and skills they already possess to foster optimal growth and development in children. I believe in empowering individuals as they navigate the more challenging components of childrearing. My role is to be in your corner—cheering you on—guiding and supporting you while utilizing your strengths to achieve your goals. You are the driver; I am simply the map!
