About Me
My name is Shani Avidar and I am a certified Infant Sleep and Well-Being Specialist, lactation consultant, banker, wife, and a momma to three energetic little boys.
My experience as a mom of three little ones and my training as an Infant Sleep & Well-Being Specialist, has given me so much insight into what children and infants need, not only to develop, but to thrive. I found the Baby Led Sleep Approach and it was in complete alignment with my understanding of infant and toddler sleep as well as my parenting style. It helped me understand my children better and increased my confidence as a mom. I completed the Wholechild Company Breastfeeding Program so I can equip, educate, and install confidence in new and expecting moms.
I was always passionate about my career in the financial industry and envisioned my husband and I as a power couple who can have it all, successful careers and family life. When I had my first child in 2019, I realized that not only is work-life balance challenging, but it’s even harder to parent when you are sleep deprived. I literally did not know anything about infant sleep and as most parents, my husband and I were exhausted. By the time our second child arrived in 2021, I had done my research and was able to learn tools to support my children’s sleep. When our third child arrived in 2022, I considered myself a sleep pro!
I am passionate about empowering infant and toddler parents to follow their instincts, listen to their heart, and feel confident and connected with their little ones. I want to share this knowledge with every parent I know. And that is what I’m here to do!

My Approach
Sleep without sleep training. Gentle sleep support that aligns with your intuition and instincts.
As parents, one of the biggest concerns we have is trying to figure out how to get our children to sleep. We are bombarded with information and cultural pressures to care for our children in very particular ways. Sometimes these ways don't always feel right in our hearts and are often in direct conflict with the biology behind infant sleep. At My Little Dreamer, I support families using the Baby-Led Sleep Approach. I use a holistic, evidenced-based, attachment-focused approach for responsive parents looking for an alternative to sleep training. Meaning, I support parents and caregivers to tune into their children's cues and make adjustments while respecting their need for closeness, comfort and nurturing.
I offer a free 15-minute consultation to discuss The Baby-Led Sleep Approach™ and to hear what your specific challenges and concerns are. Together, we can decide if this approach is the right fit for you and your family. We will collaborate as a team to set developmentally appropriate goals, create a plan, identify strengths and challenges within that plan and re-evaluate as necessary.
