About Jess

Hi, I'm Jess

I'm a wife, a daughter and a mum to three young children and two cheeky labradors, based in Melbourne's eastern suburbs. I'm also a certified Child & Baby Sleep Consultant and a member of the International Institute for Complementary Therapists (IICT).

I know first hand how hard sleep deprivation can be. My son struggled with sleep from birth, and the exhaustion took a real toll on my mental health and on my relationships with my husband, my family and my young daughter. I knew I needed help.

Working with a baby sleep educator changed everything. Once I understood how baby and toddler sleep really works, I was able to bring calm back into our home. That knowledge has carried me through toddlerhood, going back to work, starting daycare, and even finding a little "me time" again.

Now I love helping families do the same. My goal is to give you the knowledge and confidence to get the sleep you need, so you can feel like yourself again and enjoy a calmer home.

If sleep is a struggle right now, don't put it off any longer. Together, we'll get things back on track.

My philosophy

Every baby can sleep well

I believe every baby can sleep well when their parents have the right knowledge. Babies love to sleep, and helping them get there is often simpler than you'd think.

My approach is holistic. Before we change anything, I take the time to understand your family, so your new routine fits around your life, not the other way around. Together, we'll build healthy foundations:

  • Your baby's sleep environment
  • Feeding and nutrition
  • Settling techniques you feel comfortable with

No noise, no nonsense. Just the sleep basics that actually work.

I can help if you're experiencing

  • Frequent overnight wakings
  • Bedtime battles
  • Nap refusals or catnapping
  • Early rising
  • Issues with nap transitions
  • Trouble establishing a routine
  • Excessive night feeding
  • Co-sleeping
  • Sleep associations such as feeding to sleep, rocking, patting or dummies
  • Moving from cot to big bed
  • Toddler bedtime dramas, getting up often, tantrums
  • Severe sleep deprivation and struggling to cope

Reviews

What parents say

★★★★★
We sought help from Jess when our 3 month old was really struggling with her day sleeps. Within just a few days we had so much better sleep, and it was all thanks to Jess.
Sarah H.
★★★★★
The daily check-ins made me feel so supported. We've gone from heavy reliance on the dummy and co-sleeping to sleeping in his own room with no dummy needed.
Katt K.
★★★★★
Jess customised a routine that worked around school drop-offs and pick-ups but was still ideal for my baby's age. My baby was sleeping through on night 2.
Caitlyn W.
★★★★★
Our 8 month old was waking every hour or so, needing me to feed or rock him back to sleep. After a couple of days of gentle support and guidance from Jess, he's sleeping in big chunks overnight. He's happier and we're much happier for it. Simple, supportive and professional.

FAQs

Questions parents often ask

What are your qualifications?

I'm a certified Child & Baby Sleep Consultant. I hold a current Working With Children Check and I'm a member of the International Institute for Complementary Therapists (IICT).

How do I book?

Choose a package under Sleep services and tap the button to book and pay. Not sure which one is right for you? Book a free 15-minute chat and we'll work it out together.

What ages do you work with?

I typically work with babies and children from 4 months to 5 years.

How are you different to a sleep school?

The biggest difference is 1:1 support: your own personal sleep consultant, there whenever you need to talk.

Setting up your child's sleep environment correctly is a big part of helping them sleep well. Babies and toddlers (and parents!) also do best in the comfort of their own home, within their normal routine. With the 7-Night Sleep Reset you'll have support every step of the way, so you're never alone while you put your sleep plan into practice.

Will my baby cry?

Honestly, yes. I understand crying can be a real trigger for many parents, but crying is the only way our babies can communicate with us. They may cry because they're hungry, tired, overtired, undertired, uncomfortable, bored, frustrated, or for many other reasons.

Through my program, I'll help you understand your baby's different cries and give you the confidence to know how to respond.

Do you use cry-it-out (CIO)?

No. Cry-it-out is an outdated approach where you put your baby or toddler down to sleep and don't respond until morning.

Instead, I offer a range of settling techniques and encourage you to choose the one that best suits your parenting style.

Can I keep co-sleeping with my baby?

I respect every parent's choice about where their baby sleeps. However, I'm obligated to follow safe sleep guidelines, and because co-sleeping increases the risk of SIDS, I'm unable to support families who choose to co-sleep.

My techniques and principles are based around independent sleep for your baby.

When is payment required?
