hours?  When your baby won’t stop crying

About the author

Jen Lester’s introduction to motherhood was rough – her little boy suffered terribly from colic.  This led her on an exhaustive quest for answers. In the process she discovered that there are solutions out there.  Jen is passionate about helping new parents so they can get back to enjoying their baby, instead of just ‘surviving’ them.

Jen’s profession is corporate law - she has a background in research commercialisation and technology licensing, but she’s had a diverse career: having been everything from a solicitor, a medicine student, a non-profit lawyer to a professional circus instructor (yes, really!).  Jen thrives on work and loves a good challenge, but her fiercest passion is her family.
