HOW CAN WE HELP

How Our Process Works:

Step 1: Assessment and Diagnosis

Through data collection, we will determine your child's sleep behaviours and needs in order to determine the appropriate approaches to take.
Step 2: Creating a Foundation for Success

Through consultation, we will educate, guide and support your family about the benefits of healthy sleep and create a common understanding of a suitable routine for naps and bedtime.
Step 3: Healthy and Sustainable Sleep

You will receive an easy to follow custom sleep plan that builds on the foundations of healthy sleep behaviours.
Step 4: Self-Regulation

We will develop a sense of self-regulation and independence for sleep times, where your child will know they are safe, comfortable and confident about sleep.
Step 5: Predictability and Consistency

Ensuring the whole family is comfortable with the sleep journey. We will create predictable and consistent routines so your child will thrive day and night. Progress over perfection.

OUR TOP SLEEP TIPS

Some gentle ways to give your sleep routine some love

Use a sound machine to block out unwanted noise. Ensure that runs continuously. Keep the sounds to rain or white noise.
Darkness stimulates the production of the sleep hormone melatonin, helping babies drift off easier and reducing the chances of early waking when natural light peeks in.
Set the relaxing tone with a bath (every night if possible), pjs, book/song, in crib awake, sound machine on, lights out.
Ensure you have your little one in bed at the correct timeframe for their age. This will prevent becoming overtired, night wakes and early rising.
