Has your baby hit the toddler stage, or maybe you're dealing with a pre-schooler? Were you told they'd be sleeping through the night by now, only to find that's not the case?
Many parents come to me for help with their toddlers and their story often involves phrases like...
1/8
I love working with toddlers, as sleep challenges are often resolved quickly at this age. By respecting their need for autonomy, connection, and play—while supporting their full range of emotions—we can make a big difference.

Ideal if night time challenges are the main event for you and your toddler. All the benefits of the Standard package, but ideal if you would you like me to come and witness your overnight sleep struggles, first-hand.
These are just a few of the reasons why some parents opt for an overnight consultation.
Though I have every faith in my standard distance support, there are always benefits in me seeing the situation first hand, such as...
How does it work?
As with the Evening visit, I would aim to arrive at your home between 30-60mins before bedtime so I can join in with your familiar pre-bed routine. During this time you can share your questions and concerns and I can share any observations or suggestions for easing your child's wind-down. In many cases a few small changes at bedtime can be the missing link when trying to limit disturbance to night time sleep. If your child needs lots of help to fall asleep at bedtime, then naturally they will need increasing levels of your support to maintain sleep overnight too. Taking the mystery out of how sleep happens and inviting your toddler to explore new possibilities for accessing sleep in their own way, with added freedom and no pressure, can be a beautiful journey of discovery for everyone.
What happens once your baby is asleep?
Once your toddler has settled off to sleep we can then chat about our objectives for the night and our plans for feeding, resettling or sleep arrangements for when they wake. You will be in in charge at all times. My role is to support you in sensitively unravelling the nightly challenges and in helping you to find the easiest solutions. I will be able to share my observations on the aspects that are going well and any that may not be working to your advantage. I can then offer various suggestions for sleep arrangements and settling insights as we work together on optimising your toddler's confidence and contentment when it comes to falling asleep and resettling with ease if disturbed in the night.
All emotions, lovingly supported. I DO NOT teach spaced soothing, timed responses or cry it out methods. Safe co-sleeping & attachment parenting practices welcomed and supported.

All of the benefits of the above Standard package, plus an in-home visit to get things started.
Ideal if evenings and bedtimes are the most challenging time for you and your toddler and you would like me to come and witness your bedtime struggles first-hand. Together we can explore your child's well being, sleep patterns and stage of development, while creating a fun & engaging plan to build confidence and contentment at bedtime, while safeguarding secure attachment and your loving bonds of trust. With play as the all important factor, your little one will soon be telling YOU it's bedtime, instead of the other way around!
How it works...
I will aim to arrive at your home around 30 to 60 mins prior to your toddler's bedtime so I can join in with your familiar bedtime routine. During this time you can share your questions and concerns and I can share any observations or suggestions for easing your child's bedtime wind-down. In my experience, most parents are doing a wonderful job already. A few simple shifts in connection, timing, sensory activities or sleep arrangements are often all that's required to provide a blissful drift in to slumber rather than the head to head combat or endless lunacy that has become the sleep time norm for you all lately. Overnight strategies and daytime routines, also covered during my visit.
All emotions, lovingly supported. I DO NOT teach spaced soothing, timed responses or cry it out methods. Safe co-sleeping & attachment parenting practices welcomed and supported.
