How Can I Help You?
I will assess your child’ sleep patterns, routines and environment. Identify any underlying factors that may contribute to sleep challenges, such as medical conditions or developmental issues.
I will develop a personalised sleep plan, tailored to your child’s age, developmental stage and individual sleep goal.
I will guide you through the gentle sleep methods and techniques suitable for your child’s temperament and your family’s preferences.
I will provide you will strategies for promoting self-soothing and independent sleep.
I am a strong advocate of feeding your baby by the means that suits you & your baby best, whether that is breastfeeding, bottle feeding or combination feeding.
You can continue to breastfeed and improve sleep. There is no evidence to suggest that introducing formula will improve your baby’s sleep.
My training and experience promote a gentle approach to sleep training, aimed at minimising tears while remaining present and responsive to your baby’s needs
My goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools needed to foster healthy sleep habits, improve your families sleep, build your confidence to become your own child’s sleep expert.
