Beanstalk hosts event with infant sleep expert Natalie Willes.

Portland children’s consignment shop, Beanstalk, will host a free informational and Q&A event with infant sleep consultant, Natalie Willes on Thursday, June 25th.

Natalie Willes is a mother of two and has worked for the last four years with families all over the world who were in dire need of a sleep expert for their infants. Willes is able to design a custom action plan for each unique family, and now Portland families are able to learn more about this opportunity during this free event.

Designed specifically for parents in their third trimester or parents of newborns, the session will cover topics such as the nursery set up, how long infants should stay awake before nap time, and how to help the infant nap during the day without impacting the parent’s ability to sleep at night.

Not only is the event free, but attendees of the event receive a discount to go toward any Beanstalk purchases.

This is a great way for parents to come together and learn more about one of the most difficult aspect of parenting.

“As a sleep consultant, I’ve worked with families all over the world for the past four years, helping many babies get the sleep they need, both during the day and at night. I have developed an approach that combines techniques from popular sleep training books, and, most importantly, a lot of my own experience, for a truly unique approach to sleep training,” says Natalie Willes.

Infant Sleep Event at Beanstalk, 3527 NE 15th Avenue, (503) 477 - 7776. Thursday, June 25, from 6:30pm to 8pm.
