The Journey Begins: A Mother’s Struggle
Parenting is a journey full of joy, love, and, at times, immense challenges. For Erica Hargaden, the founder of Babogue, the early days of motherhood were defined by one overwhelming struggle—sleepless nights.
Just a year into her marriage, Erica welcomed her first child into the world, but the experience was far from what she had envisioned. Her little one didn’t settle as the parenting books had promised, and instead of peaceful nights, Erica found herself facing relentless crying and exhaustion. The advice she received—from healthcare professionals to well-meaning friends—offered little solace. Told that it was ‘just a phase’ or that she simply ‘wasn’t coping well,’ she felt like a failure.
As the sleepless nights continued, Erica’s well-being deteriorated. Her relationships suffered, she avoided leaving the house, and even her mother noticed how drained and lifeless she had become. That was the turning point.
A Mother’s Determination: The Birth of a Passion
With the support of her mother, Erica began to seek real solutions. She delved deep into the science of sleep and discovered how life-changing healthy sleep habits could be—not just for babies but for the entire family.
Through her personal journey, she developed an appreciation for the transformative power of sleep. This newfound passion inspired her to formally train as a Certified Child Sleep Consultant and become a member of the International Association of Child Sleep Consultants. But she didn’t stop there.
