Sleep

Sleep consultants
Our sleep consultants have many years' experience dealing with all kinds of sleep problems in babies and young children. We are confident that we will come up with a solution to your baby's sleep issues, no matter how desperate things may seem. Our methods are designed to give both baby and parents restful nights in the shortest possible length of time, and with minimum disruption to family life. We use whichever system is most appropriate to the specific sleep problem – reassurance crying, controlled crying, reward systems for older children, etc.

Packages available:

Telephone consultation
Over the phone we will discuss the baby's/child's day routine, feeding/eating routine, and night-time patterns. We will suggest ways of dealing with the problems. We then offer a further week's email support to help you through the process of implementing the changes.

Home consultation – two hours
Our sleep consultant will meet with you to discuss the baby's sleep problem, and will suggest various ways you might resolve this.
She will then offer you two weeks' email support so that you can implement the methods discussed.

Two night home visit
After discussion of the specific sleep problem on the telephone, our sleep consultant will come to your home for two nights in order to implement a solution. When she arrives with you, she will talk through the exact nature of the issue, and will work out the best way of resolving it. You will then benefit from two weeks' email support while you continue to apply the methods she has put in place.

48 hour package
Sleep problems are generally not just the result of how parents handle night-time sleep, but also how they manage the day routine and day naps. It is the experience of most sleep consultants that the whole 24 hour routine will need adjusting if there are sleep problems at night. Our 48 hour package lets the sleep consultant work with the you in your home to resolve the sleep issue in a holistic manner. Parents will then have email support from the sleep consultant until the sleep programme is firmly in place.
