Over the course of the last decade, sleep coaching expert Jen Varela has helped more than 4,500+ families find the sweet sleep they’ve been deprived of and desperately needed. Through her experience, she aims to provide parents with solutions that bring hope and strategies that work with each child’s temperament in the sleeping location that the parents prefer from bed-sharing, room-sharing with the baby on a separate sleep surface, or the child being in their bedroom. These families have benefited from her expertise at workshops and on phone consultations — and more than 800+ of them in the U.S. and around the world have achieved their sleep goals through private one-on-one coaching with Jen via her company, Sugar Night Night.  

Jen has also co-authored a book with Andrea Strang titled “Loved to Sleep,” which is available as an ebook on Amazon. She is a member of the  International Association of Child Sleep Consultants and a Certified Gentle Sleep Coach® trained by Kim West, The Sleep Lady®; she also trained with the Infant Mental Health Community Training Program–Hospital for Sick Kids. In addition to her work as a sleep coach, Jen serves as the California chapter liaison for Postpartum Support International (PSI-CA), which helps families dealing with perinatal mood and health disorders (PMADs). Prior to coming on board with PSI, Jen was the president of San Diego-based Postpartum Health Alliance. Jen is a mother of two and holds a bachelor’s degree in Human Services with an emphasis in Counseling from California State University, Fullerton.
