Meet Our Family
Alison Macklin | Mom & Founder
I’m a sleep expert and mom from Toronto, Canada! I love improving sleep for people of all ages because I see how much more enjoyable life is when your family is sleeping well.
I became sleep-obsessed when my daughter was born and had major sleep struggles. A sleep consultant changed my life and from that moment, I was hooked on the idea of better sleep. I went from dreading every hour out of fear, to being able to enjoy life with my new baby. But the lack of good information about infant sleep frustrated me. Since then, my mission has been to reach as many families as possible to avoid them going through what I did, and make awesome sleep more accessible to everyone.
Rhowena Adolfo Patel | Mom & CFO
When I became a first-time Mama in 2018, I was appalled by the lack of care, aid and resources in maternal healthcare. I have become a childbirth and postpartum product expert, speaker and advocate, dedicating my time and energy to raising the standard of care for every new and expectant parent. I have backpacked 58 countries, 7 of which were with our infant. Nothing can truly encompass and prepare you for everything that parenthood unfolds, but I know that having the right product, tools, and resources at your fingertips can ease that transformative experience from struggle to joy and wonder.
Brent Dillie | Dad & COO
I'm an engineer, entrepreneur, and most importantly, a new parent. In the past, my wife and I often found ourselves anxiously checking our baby monitor, trying to check that our little one was breathing. We’d zoom in, zoom out, and ask each other to take a look, all in an attempt to ease our worries. Professionally, I've helped create, manage, and grow several companies in the retail and healthcare sectors. One of these companies supported the United States and Canada with FDA-cleared facial protection during and after the pandemic, while another supplies over 4,000 hospitals across North America. I instantly fell in love with the simplicity and reliability of Sleep of Mind as a way to ensure our baby’s well-being. It allowed my wife and I to rest easy, and I'm thrilled to share it with the world!
