Kandra Becerra is a pediatric sleep specialist and the founder of Rocky Mountain Sleeping Baby, a Colorado-based practice offering gentle, one-on-one sleep coaching for families. A Colorado native who lives in Parker with her husband and their two sons, Owen and Cody, she helps parents create sleep plans that fit their baby, their parenting style, and their day-to-day lives.

Kandra started her practice after a frustrating experience of her own. When Owen was 4 weeks old, she and her husband hired a sleep consultant who handed them a generic schedule meant for a 6-month-old and advised letting their newborn cry it out. Knowing other parents were likely getting the same one-size-fits-all advice, Kandra set out to build something better: coaching that's responsive, age-appropriate, and tailored to each family.

She brings a lifelong passion for working with children to her practice. Kandra spent many years as a nanny and has worked with kids for as long as she can remember. Her approach is rooted in that hands-on experience, along with her belief that parents deserve support that feels reassuring rather than rigid.
