Reaching Sleep Breaking Point

I’m not sure if I need advice or just to complain. I have the happiest 9 month old on the planet who never cries or whines except at night. She can’t go to sleep on her own. I used to nurse her to sleep until that stopped working now it’s a fight to rock her to sleep.

The problem is once she is asleep and in her crib she’ll wake up every 15-40 minutes consistently until I cosleep with her. So she could be up every 30 minutes until I cave and just cosleep. Once we cosleep she gets up around 12 and 3 to nurse. I don’t mind the night wakings to nurse but the waking every 15-40ish minutes until I cosleep is exhausting. I can’t get anything done after she gos to bed because she’s a ticking time bomb.

The babysitter says she puts her in a crib for naps and she just rolls over and sleeps without crying or whining so I know she’s capable but she’s never been able to do it at home.

I know this isn’t a sleep training sub but I’m about to reach a breaking point of some type of gentle training. Any suggestions or anyone dealt with a similar baby?
