VIOLET GIANNONE is a registered nurse, pediatric sleep consultant and founder of Sleep, Baby, Sleep(R), a website dedicated to helping babies sleep. After struggling with getting her first baby to sleep, Violet was faced with immense sleep deprivation. Realizing that walking around like a zombie was no way to parent a baby, Violet developed a sleep training program that drew attention worldwide. Believing that ""cry it out"" is not the only way to help a baby sleep, Violet dedicated her time and research to developing a program that is gentle, yet effective. She is helping parents daily and all over the world through the VioletSleepBabySleep.com website. For a more tailored approach, she also offers personalized sleep plans and one-on-one consultations. Violet has been featured in and is a pediatric sleep expert for popular parenting websites such as Care.com, WhatToExpect.com, Moms Magazine, Macaroni Kid, Baby Chick, Tinyhood and more. When she is not helping babies sleep or busy running around with/after her two girls, Violet loves coffee, Mexican food, listening to loud music, dancing as if no one is watching, and always looking for opportunities to take the road less traveled.
