Yes helping parents get more rest as I know how debilitating sleep deprevation is....and

most parents I work with do get a lot more sleep, feel more rested and feel their mental health is in a better place. But you know what I love the most.....

.......and actually what I think is most useful for the parents is that they get to know their baby or child !

This warms my heart because this is longevity, these are the skills and the useful parenting stuff that will help them as their child grows older. I'm not about a quick sleep fix (although it can be quick too) ....it a holistic thing. A family thing. A bonding thing.

That's what love the most ❤

She slept through ! the words many parents long to be able to say.

The thing is, sleep isn't linear. So unfortunately when your baby sleeps for a long stretch they may not necessarily do it again consistently every night from then on.

I've heard this lots, and this is when parents can start to doubt themselves, their methods, their routines, their actions. They assume they have done something wrong the subsequent nights and therefore consider sleep training - because 'they know she can do it, she's done it before '

Sleep is not linear. They will start to consolidate sleep to longer blocks, and of course there is lots you can do to encourage this and have healthy sleep habits in place. But it is very normal for sleep to be up and down and not consistent - sorry to say 😁

🧐Are you confused about all the sleep advice out there ?

🥱Do you want to learn about baby sleep but have no interest in sleep training or crying methods?

😴Do you want to learn how baby's sleep and how to encourage more sleep from a young age ?

😀Do you want to learn some gentle and effective tips on how to create a health sleep routine for you and your family ?

🤭By sharing all I know about baby sleep in the first 6 months, l'll probably be setting myself up for you guys never needing a 1-1 consultation in the future.....but that's ok with me. I'm passionate about sharing the knowledge I have so you and baby can get as much sleep as you can and when you are tired how you can best look after yourself.

Book yourself in now via our booking page on website❤

As an holistic sleep coach I do look at Wake Windo

As an holistic sleep coach I do look at Wake Windows. I find them a useful piece of information but it should (IMO) never be used as the absolute rule and is only a tiny piece of information combined with lots of other important things to consider.

WW should be used as just a guide, a rule of thumb, approx averages. They are essentially a list of baby/child's age and the approximate time on average that aged baby/child can stay awake before needing another nap.

They is such a huge range of 'normal' and there are also 'outliers' so by all means have a ww guide to hand but it is far more useful to get to know your own baby/child's individual tired cues to get to know when they need sleep.

It is also more about how much sleep is recommended for a baby/ child at a particular age in a 24 hour period and then how best to space out the naps during that time rather than the wake window itself.

To learn more about baby sleep. Come and join my "All about baby sleep" talk, face to face so you'll get to mingle with other parents. This talk is held in BRistol , BS3 and is suitable for babies aged 0-6months.

Tickets can be bought via the booking page on the website. You can link to it via the bio.
