FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do you compare with other sleep consultants?
As a mother of 3 (with my oldest being in her late 20’s), I understand how much conflicting advice and very little support there is for you and your little one. Therefore, I aim to empower and teach parents to achieve their goals and I pride myself on giving the best support possible, building back your confidence with your little ones. I always provide support in a gentle, nurturing and holistic way, as I know how important sleep is for the whole family. I have completed Newborn Education with Harvey Karp (Happiest Baby on the Block), Infant Mental Health training with Sick Kids Hospital, Toronto, Canada and a Professional Intensive Course with Hand in Hand Parenting USA, and I have 15 years experience. I also keep up-to-date with all the current recommendations for babies health and well-being by attending various courses, and paediatric advice. ​ I am not only an Infant/Newborn Sleep Consultant, but also a Newborn Educator. When working with me, you will receive a personalised plan to suit your individual needs and support you on your journey. Additionally, my science-based approach provides you with the confidence you will need and equip you with the necessary skills to empower you as a parent.
Do you use a specific technique?
As a holistic sleep consultant, I believe there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. My techniques promote minimal crying and supporting your family and your baby to sleep, eat and settle well with gentle and effective foundations and healthy sleep associations. I use effective sleep science and methodologies learnt through my extensive training for creating healthy sleep foundations.
How long does it take it to take to see results/improvements?
Again, as a holistic sleep consultant, I emphasize the unique needs of you, your family and your baby. Every baby is different, just like every human being is different. By taking into consideration each baby's different biological needs, I will work with you to find what works best for your child, your family and parenting style. The time it takes to see results/improvements when working with any sleep consultant varies according to the age of your baby, the specific sleep issues we are addressing and the consistency of implementing my suggestions. Many families I have worked with notice improvements within a few days to a couple of weeks. It all depends on your unique needs. Consistent communication with me, according to the package you choose, and following my advice or plan for you will help you see results and improvements more quickly.
