Frequently Asked Questions
Does this sleep support include cry it out?
No it doesn't. There are various factors that impact sleep with just one of these being how your little one falls asleep. If needed, we will work together to determine the best settling technique based on your parenting style and your child's temperament. I offer a range of in-room and out-of-room settling techniques, and we will decide together which one suits you best.
​
What does sleep support look like?
When you book the Sleep Support Package we will have a 1 hour consultation together, which allows me to get to know you and your little one. Following this I will write a multipage (generally 6-7 pages) sleep plan tailored to your little one.
Sleep plans change for each family but will generally include information on the Sleep Environment, Nutrition including milk feeds, Naps, Overnight Sleep, Settling, Routine examples and so much more. The plans include step by step instructions along with information, support and guidance.
Once you are ready to make changes, we will work closely together for 10 days with unlimited support from me allowing me to be with you every step of the way.
How long will it take?
The Sleep Support Package includes 10 days of support as this is usually how long it takes for families to see great improvement and also feel confident and comfortable moving forward. While I cannot guarantee success, most families who are consistent and follow recommendations experience significant improvements within the first few days.
Is there anyone I can't help?
Throughout the initial consultation for the sleep support package I ask several questions, some of these are regarding any current medical conditions or potential 'red flags'. In some instances I may refer to a GP (General Practitioner) before we begin or ask for GP sign off to begin. Most times in these instances I am still able to support families alongside their GP.
