OUR TEAM
Meet Christine FOUNDER OF BELLA LUNA FAMILY
- Certified Child Sleep Consultant
- Child Behavior Coach
- Lactation Counselor
FUN FACTS ABOUT CHRISTINE
When she’s not cheering on moms everywhere or snuggling her boys, you can find her on a yoga mat or binge-watching Bravo. Give her sushi and a trip to Target, and she’s one happy woman.
Christine has walked the walk. When her twin boys were six months old, she and her husband hit a concrete wall of sleep deprivation and sought outside help. After failing to find a local sleep consultant, they set out to teach the boys how to sleep on their own. Ultimately, they were successful in teaching their boys healthy sleep habits but would have loved to have a guide on the journey.
This struggle launched Christine’s sleep obsession and a passion to help families like her own. She completed the Family Sleep Institute’s child sleep consultant training program and Bella Luna Family was born! In the past 5+ years, she and her team have helped well over 1,000 families. She has also received a certification in child behavior coaching and she is a certified lactation counselor.
Meet Alex CERTIFIED CHILD SLEEP CONSULTANT
FUN FACTS ABOUT ALEX
Alex loves being outside and in nature. When she is not talking about healthy sleep habits, you can find her exploring a new trail with her husband and her active toddler, Adeline. She enjoys being at her cottage, sitting on the dock, watching the sunrise and the sunset.
Alex was the naïve first-time parent who thought she could adapt to the long, sleepless nights. Quickly, she found out that the lack of sleep with a newborn was too hard to handle. Alex started to read about how to create a healthy and safe sleep foundation with her newborn that she could use at all stages of babyhood.
Alex found a passion in learning about sleep and how to support healthy sleep habits and in early 2020 achieved a child sleep consultation certificate from The Family Sleep Institute. Alex loves supporting parents in creating healthy and safe sleep habits for their little ones.

Meet Sarah CERTIFIED CHILD SLEEP CONSULTANT
FUN FACTS ABOUT SARAH
When Sarah isn't helping mamas with their little one's sleep or wrangling her trio, you can find her reading the classics or historical fiction; getting sweaty on her Peloton; cooking and baking; or laughing her butt off to Friends and The Office.
Sarah is a Coast Guard wife and Mom to 3 kids, 4 and under. She lives outside beautiful Charleston, SC with her husband, twin boys, and daughter.
Being a military wife, Sarah was used to lots of change, but nothing prepared her for the birth of her twin boys! When her twins turned 5 months old, she and her husband were only getting 1-hour stretches of sleep at a time. Exhausted would be an understatement.
This is when she reached out to Christine for help and it turned out to be "the best decision ever." She quickly became obsessed with sleep and routines, which led her to the path of becoming a certified child sleep consultant. She graduated from the Family Sleep Institute in 2021 and loves helping Moms to get the rest they need to be the Moms they want to be.

Meet Kyle CERTIFIED CHILD SLEEP CONSULTANT
FUN FACTS ABOUT KYLE
Kyle lives in Vancouver, WA, with her husband, 1-year-old son, and German Shorthaired Pointer. She spent nearly a decade teaching in elementary school classrooms before becoming a mom. Most of her (limited) free time is spent reading, running, wine tasting, and exploring everything the Pacific Northwest offers!
After a difficult transition to motherhood, Kyle was diagnosed with postpartum depression and anxiety. She knew sleeping more would improve her mental health, so she became obsessed with baby sleep. Once she built healthy sleep habits for her son, her world turned around, and she became a better version of herself.
Because sleep training had made such a profoundly positive difference in her life, Kyle realized she wanted to help other families get better sleep. Her new passion led her to pursue a child sleep consultant certification from the Family Sleep Institute in 2022. Once certified, Kyle joined the Bella Luna team.
FUN FACTS ABOUT ALEX
Meet Piper
- Certified Child Sleep Consultant
- IBCLC
FUN FACTS ABOUT PIPER
When she's not helping mamas and families along their sleep or breastfeeding journeys, she can be found chasing her gleeful toddler, re-watching Sex and the City for the 750th time, or battling her husband at trivia games (and winning).
NYC-born and raised, Piper followed her wanderlust to the south coast of Ireland, where she studied and practiced midwifery at the country's largest maternity hospital. Having fallen in love with helping women and families, she became an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant and obtained a master's in perinatology.
Even with all of this schooling, nothing could have prepared her for the nittiest grittiest learn-on-the-job gig of motherhood. Though her little one slept decently through the first year, handling nap transitions in the second year of life gave her (and her marriage and sanity) a run for their money. This is when she banged down Bella Luna's door and worked with Sarah.
Through this journey, she became fascinated with the scientific and behavioral aspects of sleep, and became determined to provide other families with the support that enabled her own family to sleep again and thrive. In early 2023, Piper achieved a child sleep consultant certificate from the Family Sleep Institute and joined the Bella Luna team.
