Holistic Sleep Support

Babies, Toddlers and Children

My Training

I studied with BabyEm who deliver the Holistic Sleep Coaching Program and completed my degree-level certification in Holistic Sleep Coaching (Level 6). The program is recognised as one of the most comprehensive, science-backed, evidence-based, and responsive sleep coaching programs internationally.

The program is accredited at Level 6 through the Open College Network, (the largest vocational body in the UK) and is led by clinical director and co-founder Lyndsey Hookway. Lyndsey is a well-respected healthcare professional, IBCLC, author, teacher, and mentor. With world-renowned guest experts teaching in the field, this in-depth program has equipped me with the breadth and depth of knowledge and skills to support families effectively.

My Approach

As a Holistic Sleep Coach, I recognise the uniqueness of each child and family. My approach is personalised and I consider a broad range of factors that may influence your child's sleep:

  • Child’s Age and Developmental Stage: Tailoring strategies to align with your child's growth and milestones.

  • Family Dynamics: Understanding the interactions and rhythms within your family.

  • Temperament and Personality: Acknowledging your child’s individual traits and behaviours.

  • Anxiety, Stressors, and Illness: Addressing emotional and physical health that may affect sleep.

  • Sleep Hygiene, Environment, and Sleep Patterns: Creating ideal settings and routines, tailored to your child’s needs.

  • Diet and Nutrition: Considering dietary influences and any potential allergies or intolerance's.

  • Exercise and Activity Levels: Incorporating appropriate levels of physical activity.

I absolutely respect your expertise as a parent and am committed to developing age appropriate and gentle strategies aligned with your values. My focus is on being responsive and respectful, advocating for parenting that fosters secure attachments and prioritises bonding. I empower parents to trust their instincts, offering non-judgemental, compassionate support

By prioritising family-centred care and recognising you as the expert on your child, I ensure strategies are always in your child's best interests. Through education on biologically normal infant sleep and responsive feeding, I promote realistic expectations and provide holistic care for your family.

My Principles as a Holistic Sleep Coach:

  • No Non-Responsive Methods: Avoiding separation-based sleep training or cry-alone techniques.

  • Respectful Guidance: Supporting when and how you respond to your child without dictating.

  • Comfort in Practice: Ensuring comfort with suggested strategies, prioritising attachment.

  • Individualised Planning: Offering tailored, flexible plans, not rigid, generic methods.

  • Realistic Expectations: Setting realistic and achievable goals without promising quick fixes or guaranteed results.
