The Kelowna Area Sleeping So Well?
Dear Parent,
If your baby or toddler is having trouble sleeping – and you’re confused about what you should do about it – then this page is important. I’d like you to take a moment and pay close attention to what I’m about to tell you.
My name is Pam Nease, and I’m your licensed Sleep Sense™ Consultant here in the Okanagan and Kootenay area. My passion (and my job!) is giving parents like you all the tools and information they need to solve their children’s sleep problems... as quickly and easily as possible!
So how can I help you and your family? Let’s find out...
Does Any Of This Sound Familiar?
Even though we don’t know each other personally, I’m fairly sure that you’ve found your way to this website because you’re dealing with one of these very common (and very frustrating) sleep problems:
| Your child needs to nurse or bottle feed (or use a soother) in order to get to sleep. Of course, whenever that soother falls out, YOU'RE the one who has to go put it back in. I can show you how to break this habit FAST! | |
| You are waking up with your child once, twice, three (or more) times each night. The reason? Your little one needs to learn to fall asleep WITHOUT your help. My son’s transformation made such an impact on me that I eventually made the decision to dedicate my professional life to helping families like yours in the Interior of BC. | |
| Your child needs to be rocked, bounced, or taken for a car ride in order to nap. Or (even worse) your child seems to REFUSE to take a nap -- despite the fact that he or she seems tired. I can show you how to make naptime EASY for everyone! | |
| Your OWN lack of sleep is starting to take a toll on you and your family. Studies prove that infant sleep problems are closely linked to postpartum depression. This is a non-drug way to help deal with those "baby blues..." |
If any of this sounds like you and your family, then I’m here to help. And the good news is that, by working together, we can start seeing a dramatic improvement in the length and quality of your child’s sleep... after just a couple of nights!
Who Am I, And How Can I Help Your Family?
My name is Pam Nease. I’m the mother of
two beautiful children and I live right here in Kelowna, BC. When my first child was about 5 months old, he was waking every 2 hours during the night. It would take me about an hour to get him back to sleep, only to have to repeat the whole thing again a couple of hours later!
Exhausted, I looked everywhere for some real-life, practical solutions to my son’s sleep problems. Friends and family, doctors and nurses... They all offered sympathy and advice, but nobody would actually tell me how to solve the problem!
Finally, I met with Dana Obleman, best-selling creator of “The Sleep Sense Program,” who has helped more than 20,000 families solve the very problems I was having with my son. After just a few nights of following this simple, step-by-step system, my son was falling asleep at 7 p.m., and waking up happy and refreshed at 7:30 a.m.
My son’s transformation made such an impact on me that I eventually made the decision to dedicate my professional life to helping families like yours in the Kelowna area!
After completing a comprehensive training program with Dana Obleman, I’ve been licensed as the only Sleep Sense™ consultant in the Okanagan and Kootenay area... and my goal is to help parents like you quickly and easily solve your child’s sleep problems.
Here’s what a recent client named Jennifer had to say:
Dear Pam,
You have been amazing. It is only day three and I feel like everything in our house has changed... including my confidence as a parent! It is truly extraordinary! I hate to sound so dramatic, but it really feels like a miracle! It has been such a pleasure being your client, and it's really exciting to know that you are out there changing so many lives.
Thanks again for everything,
Jennifer E.
"Will This Work For My Child?"
The reason the methods I teach work so well is that they are customized for YOUR family!
We all know that every child is different, so it only makes sense that what worked for one baby might not necessarily be the best solution for yours. (For example, some children will settle more easily when a parent is in their room with them... and another child might not be able to fall asleep at all until they are left alone.)
That’s why I work closely with you to make sure that the plan we develop for your child fits for your family. That means not only do we take into account your child’s personality, we also come up with a plan that fits your parenting style. This is extremely important, because – as a parent – you simply aren’t going to be committed to a plan that you don’t feel comfortable with. Makes sense, right?
Here's Exactly How I Can Help:
Because I am committed to helping as many parents as possible in the interior of BC, I’ve put together a couple of different packages designed to fit just about every budget:
Option #1 – Private consultation:
We'll meet in your home (or by telephone, if you prefer) and discuss your child's sleep difficulties in detail. Then, we’ll decide together what approach to solving these problems you are most comfortable with, and then come up with a detailed sleep plan that you can start implementing right away.
I provide my private consultation clients with a very high level of pro-active telephone and e-mail support (meaning I'll be calling you daily when you first start putting your plan into place to ensure that everything is going smoothly.) Here's a complete summary of what's included:
| 1. | A preliminary evaluation. This is a comprehensive questionnaire about your child's sleep habits and routines that you'll fill out prior to our meeting. (Having this information in advance helps us make the most of our time together.) |
| 2. | A private, 90 minute consultation in your home where we'll discuss strategies, troubleshoot possible problems, and learn how to address bedtime, naptime, nightwakings, or any other specific issues you might be dealing with. |
| 3. | A detailed, fully customized sleep plan that I will prepare for you after the conclusion of our meeting. |
| 4. | Four follow-up telephone calls during the first week following the consultation. These follow-up calls typically last about 15 minutes, and we'll use this time to deal with any setbacks you might be having or answer any general questions. |
| 5. | One week of unlimited e-mail support. After your four follow-up telephone calls have been used, you still have an additional week of unlimited e-mail support. I'll give you my private e-mail address, so that you can send me any lingering questions you might have. |
The cost for an in-home consultation is just $395, and includes everything listed above. To book a consultation, please call (250) 575-6988 or e-mail pam.nease@sleepsense.net.
Option #2: Group Seminar
Attending a Sleep Sense™ seminar provides a comfortable environment where a small group of parents get together and learn how to solve their children's sleep problems.
You'll get to share experiences with other parents who are facing some of the same challenges as you... and then develop a personalized sleep plan that will give your child the tools needed to finally start sleeping through the night (and taking long, restful naps during the day.)
Here's a brief outline of what you can expect during the seminar:
- The special sleep needs of infants and toddlers.
- What the leading sleep experts have to say about your child's sleep.
- Negative effects of disruptive sleep habits on your family -- and how to fix them.
- How to establish a fun and practical bedtime routine for your child.
- Putting together a Sleep Sense™ sleep plan for your child.
- Common pitfalls & problems... and how to avoid them
- Deciding how much sleep your child needs during the daytime and planning a naptime schedule.
All seminar clients will receive one week of personal e-mail support with me. This is a great way to get fast answers to any questions that come up, as my policy is to respond to all e-mails within one business day (and usually much sooner!)
The cost to attend a group seminar is just $100, including the personal e-mail support. To inquire about dates and reserve your space at an upcoming seminar, please call (250) 575-6988 or e-mail pam.nease@sleepsense.net.
Here's How To Get A FREE
15-Minute Consultation Today!
In my experience, the best way to decide if I can help you and your family is to spend a few minutes talking on the telephone, which is why I'm currently offering a FREE 15-minute telephone evaluation of your child's sleep habits.
Just give me a call at (250) 575-6988. I'd be happy to talk to you about your child's sleep problems and answer any questions you might have. (If you call outside of office hours or if you get my answering service, please just leave a message with your name and number, and I'll be sure to get back to you promptly.)
I look forward to speaking with you!
To healthy sleep ,

It is 10 to 7 on this lovely Spring evening and Joshua is sleeping soundly in his cot as he did last night and the night before for 10-12 hours. He always slept well to begin with but when he was unwell and the teething started it all went wrong. We did what we thought was the right thing to do at the time but soon realized that Joshua had developed a whole new routine - one that involved not going to sleep at night and then waking up several times a night for a bottle!!
Thankfully, your Sleepsense plan put us all back on track and we hopefully will never look back.
Many thanks again and good luck in all that you do.
-- Toni Taylor
I wanted to thank you for the Sleep Sense program. Things have been hectic at our house (contractors all over the place doing loud work during the day), so naptime has been challenging. But we implemented some things we learned from the Sleep Sense program at bedtime, and what a difference!!!
We're only on the fourth night, but already Megan has developed her own self-soothing techniques, falling asleep on her own albeit with some crying, waking only once to eat during the night and putting herself back to sleep on her own with her other nightwakings.
My husband and I are so happy to have a long stretch of sleep again! Thank you so much. We still have some work to do regarding naps, but we'll get there.
Thanks again and take care,
-- Christy Murray
I just want to share that I am THRILLED with your program! We are now into the 2nd month and even in the very beginning he is sleeping 11-12+ hours straight through the night!
He has learned to put himself back to sleep and we never thought that would happen, it has been simply amazing! We used to be the parents who got no sleep, now our friends are jealous that he sleeps so many hours through the night and their child doesn't!I brag to EVERYONE about how well he sleeps and that we have a life again!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I never dreamed I would sleep through the night for 8 hours again! You are awesome!

Dana,
I cannot thank you enough for giving me the gift of sleep! Two days before my son turned 9 months old, I was at my wits end and felt like I was on the verge of a breakdown. I had not had more than 4 hours straight of sleep in a year, and was truly exhausted. It affected my home life, my relationships with friends, and especially the quality of my work at my job.
My son had never slept more than 5 or 6 hours straight, but at 6 months old he began to wake up every 3-4 hours. I honestly thought he was just hungry, but didn't realize I was setting him and myself up for sleep failures. Well, he is now 9 months old. As of last night, which was night # 8, on your sleep program, Christian slept for 10 1/2 hours straight! He woke up one time, cried for about 30 seconds, and was back asleep before I could even open my eyes to check the time. By night 3, he was sleeping 9 hours, which was amazing to me. Because I was so accustomed to waking up throughout the night, I can't even sleep past 4:30 am now, but I know that it will take some time for my body to realize that it can truly rest again.
Thank you for giving me my me-time back in the evenings, for giving me sleep back at night, and for teaching me how to be a better parent. We are all much happier now, and I am even back to working out in the mornings while Christian sleeps. At this point, I am telling EVERY parent that I know about your program. It was well worth every cent and more!
God bless you!

Hi there,
Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!!!!!!!
I just had my first full night of sleep in 5 1/12 months. It was the third night of implementing the program and she slept from 7:00 to 5:00 and went back down until 7:00. I am so happy I woke up crying:)
Thanks again! You are a life saver
Elyce, Kevin, and Jaidyn Battle
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Your sleep programme is fantastic and truly works! Last night was our 6th night and things are going brilliantly well! I really can't thank you enough.
Joel slept through on the 3rd night, had a bit of a blip on the 4th night, but I think it was because he had a dirty nappy and was uncomfortable but 5th and 6th nights...straight through!
I can't recommend your book highly enough and will certainly be mentioning it to all my friends in Britain who are having similar problems.
Thank you
Carolyn
