Founders
We've been where you are.
Lindsay and Aly founded Off to Sleep Strong to give exhausted parents what they wished they'd had — real expertise, real support, no gatekeeping.
The story
Aly and Lindsay are close friends. Both live in lower Fairfield County, Connecticut, raising young kids just a few towns apart. They founded Off to Sleep Strong together because they kept seeing the same pattern among friends and family — exhausted, capable parents who couldn't find help that actually fit their lives.
Over the past several years, they've coached families through sleep training — 4-month-olds, toddlers in big-kid beds, babies in every sleep crisis you can imagine. Every plan is custom to the family. Every text and call is answered by one of them — there are no junior associates, no automated scripts. It's just the two of them, and the families they're helping, for one or two weeks at a time.
Along the way they realized: the hardest part of sleep isn't the first week of training. It's everything after. The 4-month regression passes; the 8-month one arrives. Travel derails everything. A new sibling throws the whole house off. Parents kept coming back for second and third engagements, and every time they asked: “Is there something ongoing? Something where I don't have to start from zero every time?” So they built it.
Meet Aly
Aly is a licensed social worker and certified sleep consultant, drawn to this work by how transformative good sleep is for an entire family's wellbeing. She brings an empathetic, evidence-based approach to every family she works with — helping parents build healthy, sustainable sleep habits without losing their minds in the process.
Aly lives in Cos Cob, Connecticut with her husband and their two kids. When she's not with a client or her own little ones, she's running, working out, or finding whatever small way she can to stay grounded and energized.
Meet Lindsay
Lindsay is a certified sleep consultant known for bringing a calm presence, practical guidance, and deep empathy to the families she works with. She believes the early years of parenting don't have to feel chaotic — with the right support and a clear plan, families can find real rest and rhythm again.
Lindsay lives in Old Greenwich, Connecticut with her husband, their three kids, a nine-year-old labradoodle, and a cat. Outside of work, you'll usually find her in the kitchen prepping meals, baking, or down at the beach.
What we believe
- Every baby can learn to sleep. Some take longer than others. Some need a gentler approach. All of them get there.
- Parents deserve support that lasts longer than one phone call. Sleep keeps coming up; so should the people who help you with it.
- Sleep training done right is not harmful. It's a boundary introduced with love and consistency, and the research backs this up.
- “Behavioral advice, not medical.” We are not pediatricians. We are sleep coaches. For medical questions, we'll always send you back to your doctor.
- Exhausted parents are not bad parents. You're doing the hard thing. You're doing it anyway. That matters.
A note on the community vs. 1:1 work
Many parents ask: “How is the community different from working with you 1:1?”
Here's the honest answer:
1:1 work is a week or two of intensive, personalized support, with a custom plan written for your specific baby. We still do this, and for families in the thick of a sleep crisis, it's often the right first step. It's an investment.
The community is ongoing support for after that first sleep crisis is resolved, or for families who don't need the intensive 1:1 route. It's methodology, content, weekly office hours with us, and a community of other parents walking through the same thing. Monthly or annual, far less per-month cost, and you get to stay for years.
Some families do both. Some start in the community and upgrade to 1:1 when they hit a rough patch. Either path is fine.
