Struggling With Your Baby’s Sleep?
Many parents come to me when baby sleep starts feeling exhausting or confusing.
You may be experiencing things like:
- Your baby wakes every 30–60 minutes at night
- Naps are short or unpredictable
- Your baby wakes when put down
- Bedtime takes a very long time
- Your baby seems constantly overtired
- Sleep changed suddenly during nap transitions or developmental phases
- You feel overwhelmed by conflicting sleep advice
GOOD SLEEP
If this sounds familiar, you are not alone.
With the right guidance and understanding of biologically normal infant sleep, many families see significant improvements in naps, bedtime and night sleep without sleep training.

Learn the Art and Science of Sleep Parenting
Good sleep is an essential ingredient for healthy growth, development and family wellbeing.
How do I help families improve Baby Sleep?
Every day, I guide parents in helping their babies achieve healthy, age-appropriate naps and night sleep using gentle, science-based guidance.
My approach encourages parents to:
- follow their baby’s natural sleep cues
- understand biologically normal infant sleep
- trust their instincts as caregivers
I do not recommend sleep training, crying methods or unnatural self-settling techniques.
Instead, I focus on connection, attachment and meeting a baby’s biological and emotional needs.
When sleep is approached this way, families often find more peace, confidence and rest.
I call this approach Sleep Parenting.
Sleeping Like A Baby
By Neha Bhatt & Himani Dalmia
A practical and reassuring guide for parents navigating the confusing world of baby sleep.
This book offers a gentle, scientific and child-led approach to understanding sleep from birth to five years, helping parents support their child’s sleep without pressure, guilt or sleep training.
Would totally recommend Himani’s expertise to any new parent needing help with their baby’s sleep. She listened and understood my questions with care and was totally friendly. Her suggestions were truly beneficial and she helped me a lot in understanding my baby’s sleep needs. She’s provided clarity on many myths about baby’s sleep and it’s been a huge relief, especially when there’s a lot of scattered info online.
I wasn’t very confident about getting my little one to a sleep routine as I had issues with his sleep right from the beginning. It was of great help to have learnt a lot from Himani.
I highly recommend consulting Himani when it comes to your li’l one’s sleep and overall well being. Not only is her recommendation on point, it’s also tailored best suited to your lifestyle and your life as parents. Her suggestions are almost 100% effective and I’m not kidding. It felt great to have someone to reach out to who can empathise with your situation (new moms would know the feeling) and help deal with it. The regressions were the toughest, but now I know exactly what to do to make it better for my baby. All thanks to Himani!
Can’t recommend Himani enough! She is godsent for new parents whose babies haven’t achieved the sleep milestone. I have messaged her with zillion questions so far and she has always responded promptly. Her advice is always so practical and gentle. I don’t know what I would have done without her support .
I was sleep deprived, exhausted and almost on the verge of falling into depression when I met Himani. She made sure that I am not ignoring my baby’s cues and made me understand that she is such a tiny baby and fulfilling her needs is my responsibility. Himani made me understand sleep basics. She constantly followed up with me for her schedule and suggested tips which made my life easier. I would highly recommend her to every struggling mom with their baby’s sleep. She is my go to person for baby’s sleep till date. Thanks a ton Himani, I wish I could thank you enough for all the efforts you put in for my baby’s sleep.
I got in touch with Himani through her Facebook group, Gentle Baby Sleep India. My child was around 3 months old then and I was absolutely clueless about my child’s sleep patterns and wondered why my little one would JUST NOT SLEEP, unless held. Himani was always a text away and was extremely patient and responsive. She introduced me to the life saving concept of ‘holding for naps’. Never have I come across someone who is so passionate about parenting and baby sleep. I would recommend all new parents to get in touch with her. Thank you, Himani. You are godsent !
Himani, thank you so much for guiding me to understand what gentle baby-led sleeping is all about. I know I have benefited so much and so has my daughter. Please continue all the great work you are doing to empower and encourage all moms out there.
Thank you for everything you have taught me, thank you for teaching me how important my baby’s sleep is for her health and wellbeing and also for giving me so many tips and so many ideas on how I can make it better. You have not just helped with her sleep, you have helped me in so many more ways for which I am very very very grateful.
