Meet Krista

My name is Krista and I am an Infant and Toddler Sleep Specialist and founder of ABCs of Zzz! While ABCs of Zzz is one of my newest babies, I am also a mommy to two beautiful daughters (both under 5) and a wife to an amazing and supportive husband, Anthony. In addition to being a mom and a sleep guru, for the past 12 years I have been a NYS Elementary Teacher which has contributed to my wealth of knowledge of childhood development.

When we had our first daughter in 2018, the first four months were extremely difficult for us. Our daughter was diagnosed with “silent reflux” because she was refusing to eat, was colicky and would not nap. We spent countless hours in doctors’ offices and therapy to try and figure out why our daughter was refusing to eat and sleep. We were emotionally and physically exhausted. Once our feeding issues were resolved at 4.5 months, we decided we needed to hire someone to help us get more sleep.

After sleep training our first daughter in 2018 with our sleep consultant, many of our family, friends, colleagues and even our own pediatrician kept asking me how was she such a great sleeper. People were asking me for tips and tricks not only for themselves but for family members or friends. It was then that I realized I was passionate about helping people get the sleep they need. It wasn’t until having our second daughter in 2022, that our sleep consultant encouraged me to become an Infant and Toddler Sleep Specialist!

The quantity and quality of my girls’ sleep positively impacted my family significantly. It is my aspiration to help and support as many families as I can overcome sleep challenges and get the restorative sleep that they need and deserve!
