What do i do if my child gets unwell?
In order for sleep support to be most effective it should only be started when a child has been 100% well for at least 5 days. If your child becomes unwell during the sleep support i will pause the teaching until they are better
-
How long will it take to see results?
I cant give a guaranteed timeline, however, most families should see a complete change in behaviour within 3 to 5 days. The majority of families will hit there sleep goals within 1 to 2 weeks so as long as the sleep plan has been followed consistently.
-
Which sleep training method do you use?
The method that I use is focused on ensuring that your child is comforted and feeling secure throughout the sleep training process and beyond. I do not support the cry it out method that some children and parents can find distressing.
-
Will my child cry?
Change is unsettling for any adult or child especially when you are all tired. It would be misleading of me to tell you that there will be no tears. It is very normal for a child to show some resistance through times of change. I do not support the cry it out method so be rest assured that i will be there to support you whilst you support your child.

Does it make a difference if my baby is breast fed or bottle fed?
Your plan will be tailored to you and your chosen feeding method. Good sleep and good feeding go hand in hand, it doesn’t matter whether that is breast or bottle fed.

What if my partner is not on board?
In order for sleep support to work successfully everyone in the house should be onboard for change. If your partner has any concerns about the process i will be more than happy to answer them.
