From a young age I enjoyed working with children. After gaining my qualification as a nanny, I travelled the world for over 10 years working with a number of amazing families.

My time as a nanny set me up with many practical skills and knowledge to help me once I became a Mum myself.

After having my first child, I struggled with the lack of sleep and the stress that came with having a tired and upset newborn and not knowing how to help him.

While pregnant with my second child I invested time into reading more around healthy sleep habits and the concept of awake windows. As a result, I found my second newborn experience smoother and more enjoyable.

My third baby was a completely different experience all together. We learned at six weeks old that our daughter was deaf and if we wanted her to learn to speak she would have to wear hearing aids and possibly be eligible for a cochlear implant.

Implementing healthy sleep habits and a routine early on with Tilly was absolutely crucial so she always knew what was happening next. Having a number of medical appointments each week, I could always work those around her awake times.

My interest and passion for babies’ sleep has only grown over the years and I have found myself providing advice and support to a number of friends struggling with their children’s sleep.

Once I knew my family was complete and was considering my career options, the idea of becoming a qualified sleep consultant seemed like a natural progression. 

I have loved learning the science and benefits of healthy sleep habits and how to put a range of techniques and theories into practice.

Working alongside Kerri, we are excited to share our knowledge with other parents and caregivers who are wanting to help their little ones become great sleepers.
