MEET THE FOUNDER
I didn't plan to become a sleep consultant. I became one because I know exactly what it costs when sleep doesn't work.
My first daughter Scarlett came into the world and turned it upside down in the most beautiful and brutal way. She had CMPI and reflux and for a long time I was doing everything I thought I was supposed to do and nothing was working. I was exhausted, I was second-guessing every decision and I was running so far on empty that I couldn't see straight.
I understand the dread that settles in your chest before you've even put them down for the night or for a nap, infact i wouldn;t even be able to put her down.
I also understand doing it without your partner beside you or being on totally different pages.
12 years ago i studied to become a qualified sleep consultant and now i am the one who trains others. Our programs work so effectively we are the one paed professionals and parents who have tried everything turn to.
Sleep deprivation doesn't just make you tired. It fractures things. It fractures your sense of self, your relationship with your partner, your capacity to show up for your children the way you always imagined you would.
That's why I do this work.
Because I know what's on the other side of it. I know what a mother becomes when she finally sleeps. I know what a marriage looks like when two people aren't just surviving their nights anymore. I know what a child looks like how they play, develop, how they regulate, how they grow when they're getting the rest their brain and body actually need.
Sleep is not a luxury. It is the foundation everything else is built on.
Attachment has always been at the heart of how I work. The relationship between a parent and their child is the most important thing in the room, always. My approach is grounded in circle of security principles and everything I do is designed to support that bond, not threaten it. A rested, regulated, present parent is one of the greatest gifts a child can receive. That's not a compromise on attachment. That is attachment.
Our consultants and practitioners bring together backgrounds in midwifery, nursing, family psychology and early childhood education. It is not a team of people who have read the same books and attended the same course. It is a team of qualified professionals who between them have seen thousands of families through the hardest seasons of early parenthood.
I built this because I needed it once. I continued it because everyday i see the life changing, family saving impacts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your little ones are born to seek attachment, and we understand this deeply as mothers and professionals dedicated to helping families build stronger, connected relationships. We advocate for strong attachment and use a range of methods to suit each family, always seeing your little ones as whole beings. True attachment is about responsiveness—being attuned, emotionally available, and responsive to your child’s needs. Practices like breastfeeding or co-sleeping don’t ensure attachment if a mother is touched out and unable to be present. Don’t worry if you’re feeling irritable or stretched; this doesn’t mean you’re harming attachment. Healthy sleep habits actually support attachment by helping caregivers be more present and emotionally available.
Babies cry—it’s a natural way to communicate and release energy. We work to minimize crying, and our child psychologist is part of that process. Despite beliefs that crying raises cortisol and harms little ones, tears are normal and essential. It’s your attuned, caring response that matters. Studies show that responsive sleep support does not harm babies; in fact, it promotes healthy development.
Choose one-on-one if:
- You think you’ll need extra support with changes.
- Self-directed learning isn’t for you or you may lack time to watch videos.
- Your child has complex needs or medical issues.
- You’re able to invest financially in personalized support.
The online program is perfect if:
- You’re ready to make a change and just need to know how.

- Budget is a factor, or you prefer videos and printables for learning.
