Hi! I’m Carly, a certified pediatric sleep consultant, certified K-12 music teacher, and founder of Saddle River Sleep & Song.

I teach music to everyone, from early childhood to school-age to grown-ups! For more information on private lessons, group classes, and birthday parties, click here.

A musical family is a joyful one, and a well rested family is a happy one! I work with caregivers all over the world using a gentle and responsive approach that helps infants and toddlers get the sleep they need.
