Upgrade
Let Mommy Sleep is a specialized newborn and postpartum care franchise founded in 2010 in the Washington, DC area. The business was created by Denise Iacona Stern after navigating her own challenging postpartum experience and caring for newborn twins.
The franchise is headquartered in Fairfax Station, Virginia, and operates under Let Mommy Sleep Franchising LLC. The company began franchising around 2016, allowing entrepreneurs to bring its proven overnight newborn-care model to local markets across the country.
Let Mommy Sleep provides professional overnight newborn care, often through licensed or certified newborn care providers who support families in the home from late evening through morning. The brand also offers postpartum checkups, baby-basics education, infant sleep instruction, and related parent-support services.
Let Mommy Sleep differentiates itself by focusing exclusively on the newborn and postpartum period, offering evidence-based care delivered by trained specialists. Its structured, standardized model brings a reliable and professional approach to a segment of childcare that is often informal and unregulated, giving the franchise a clear competitive advantage.
