Better sleep for the whole family
You’re already doing so much
As a parent you know more than anyone how important sleep is to everyday life.
But it can be difficult figuring out all the aspects that will help your little one to ‘sleep like a baby’.
Hi, I’m Emma, your Baby Sleep Consultant
We will work together to develop a plan that allows you to confidently go about your day, knowing what will work for your child and your whole family.
I believe the right approach is the one that fits in with your parenting style and family life.
That’s why I don’t subscribe to one sleep methodology, instead, I am qualified and experienced in a range of sleep solutions.
What it’s like working with the
Bondi Baby Sleep Consultant
Every family is unique, so I start by getting to know you.
We’ll discuss your specific goals and family dynamics before I recommend a practical, tailor-made plan. We’ll set up a solid plan that feels right to you, with rituals you can consistently put in place to tackle the day and the night.
We’ll talk about the factors you can control and how to consistently apply them, so you can let go of the worry and confidently stick to the plan.
You’ll get advice on how you can best set your child up for sleep AND what to do if there are bumps along the way.
Answers to common questions
Sleep props, such as dummies or wraps, are perfectly ok to use in the right environment. We’ll discuss if they’re working for your child and whether you would like to keep them or transition away from using them. A lot of factors come into play and we’ll find a gentle solution that works for your child and the stage they are in.
We’ll assess all the factors that contribute to sleeping through the night and whether this is appropriate for your child right now. While every child is different, I can assure you that we’ll work together to put in place everything that will help your child to get to sleep sooner, and for longer.
I’m qualified and experienced in any sleep related concerns for newborns up to age 5. I’m here to help with all aspects of your daily life, as they all affect sleep. We’ll talk about things like settling, self-soothing, awake windows, environment, hygiene, feeding, daily routines, natural circadian rhythms, early morning wakes, teething or transitioning stages.
I can also help with unique situations that can affect sleep, such as moving house, blending families, change in primary carer and starting preschool or daycare.
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to sleep. I believe the best solution is the one that works with and supports the family. I have lots of experience across different solutions, from gentle techniques all the way to structured approaches. I’ll work with you to discover the best plan for your child, their temperament and your family, so you can happily and consistently put the plan into action.
The different packages refer to the different support levels. Sometimes a one-off phone call is all you need to get back on track. Or, perhaps, 2 weeks of support is better to really work on sleep issues and fine-tune the approach. If you’re not sure what’s best for you, don’t worry! We can discuss where you’re at and I can recommend a plan to suit your needs.
The short answer is, no! We recommend that you reduce your commitments in the first few days while you’re getting started. This helps to set your rhythm and gain confidence in what you are doing. However, I don’t expect you to be stuck at home as we’re wanting an approach that will fit in with real life. I encourage naps on-the-go and will provide you with the best advice on how to navigate this.
Early morning wakes can be tough and they often feel like they aren’t as big of a problem as waking throughout the night. A one-hour Care Call is a great option for this issue. We’ll cover the early morning wakes topic and find out what’s happening with your little one. Just reach out, we’ll tailor a solution just for you!
I can help with your little ones from newborn to 5 years old.
