How are you different to a sleep school?
There are so many benefits that come from working with a sleep consultant. But the big one is having that 1:1 support - your own personal sleep consultant there whenever you need to talk!
A significant factor to ensuring your baby or toddler can sleep well is ensuring that their sleep environment is setup correctly. Babies and toddlers (and parents!) also function best when they are in the comfort of their own home and within their normal routine. With my service you will have ongoing support over a 2-week period, so you will never be alone as I guide you through implementing your baby or toddlers sleep plan.
Will my baby cry?
Honestly, yes! I understand crying can be a real trigger for many parents however it is important to remember that crying is the only way our babies can communicate with us. Babies may cry because they are hungry, tired, uncomfortable, overtired, under tired, bored, frustrated, or for many other reasons. Through my program I will empower you to understand your babies different types of cries and give you the confidence to know how to respond in these scenarios.
Do you use cry-it-out (CIO)?
No. CIO is a very outdated concept based on the idea that you put your baby or toddler down to sleep and don't respond until you get them up in the morning.
Through my program I offer you a range of settling techniques and encourage you to choose the one that best matches your parenting style.
Can I continue to sleep with my baby?
I respect parents choice on where they want to sleep their baby. However I am obligated to follow safe-sleeping guidelines, and unfortunately as co-sleeping increases the risk of SIDs I will be unable to support you if you choose to co-sleep.
My techniques and principles are based around independent sleep for your baby.
