World Sleep Day 2024!

Today is World Sleep Day the most important day on the calendar for 2024!

Today is obviously a very important day in the sleep industry.

💤I want to focus on what you need today and how small changes could help you all as a family.

💤 Sleep is the most important thing in our lives it helps our cells regenerate, it helps us grow, and it also allows our brain to process what has happened that day.

🌜This is why sleep is something that we should cherish and not just cope when we are having little to no sleep!

⭐️Think about your family today. What could help you change your sleep struggles and comment below!

Happy Mother's Day 💓 🥰

No matter if you are a Mum-to-be, Mum to many, single Mum, Mum who has a Mum as an angel, or a Mum who has lost far too soon. We see you! We are here for you! We stand with you!

Have a lovely day, whatever you decide to do 💐

💤Nap Drops ! Mistakes to Avoid

The dreaded nap drop is one of the most difficult things to navigate as a parent!😴

😴When do you know the time is right?

💤Most people go by age but this can be a big mistake as they may be ready according to a chart but... your little one will have their own way to tell you without that!

💤When you think they are about to drop the nap look for these tell tale signs that can tell you when they are ready to drop down a nap.

💤Not sleeping
💤Undertired
💤Waking up
💤More Unsettled

Trigger Warning ⚠️

This is a post for awareness and not shaming.

💤 Co-sleeping is not something I ever did, but I do support those who do it correctly.

💤 What do I mean by that.... Well if you are going to co-sleep with your little one the guidelines set by the Lullaby Trust are a must.

💤 if you are unsure if you are doing it correctly ask a heath professional, a sleep consultant or look on the Lullaby Trusts website.

💤 let's keep our little ones safe!

STOP! Expecting Perfection START Expecting Reality

💥Naps in my house were always a stress, but when I stopped EXPECTING perfection and realised the REALITY, it got a lot EASIER

💤 Naps are crucial to getting your little one the sleep they need through the whole day.

😴 This can help with overtiredness, nightime wake ups and irritable moods.

Let's Fix Overtiredness!

My top 4 reasons for overtiredness!

Are they awake before 6 am? If they are overtired, they are more likely to wake early and look like they have had a shot of coffee!

Wake windows are they right for your little one's age? These need adjusted sometimes just to make this the right fit.

Routine, do you have one, and do you stick to it?

Consistency this is soo crucial to make sure that your little one knows their boundaries and what they can expect each day.

Back To Work In 2024!

I am so excited to be back!!

We have had some great family time together over the holiday period, but now I am ready to share how to work with me in the new year.

1. Workshops this year, I will be doing a few workshops on various topics throughout the year, some of which include the reasons for early rising, how to say goodbye to night wakings, and new parents how to guide. Plus, so much more, so make sure you keep a look out for these.

2. We have our fabulous app that you can get a hold of this month where you can have a sleep nanny right in your pocket for as little as £12.99 🤯

3. Working with me on a one to one. Giving you the personal coaching experience, get your family sleeping within just a few short weeks. This is a personalised approach that is child and family specific no one size all approach here.

These are just a few ways to work with me. I can't wait to share the rest of them with you over the next few months!

I love this photo, it means soo much to me.

I have been here... I had no self belief at all and didn't know how to get out of the rut I was in.

When it came to parenting I felt like I had no idea what I was doing especially with sleep...2 years later, we all get a restful nights sleep thankfully but I still don't know what I am doing🙈

No matter what you don't think you can do there is always a way to make it better.

Comment 'Believe' below if you agree and let's help each other in every way we can🌟

When is the right time to get a sleep consultant?

As parents we absolutely want to do what is best for our little ones. But what if all we are doing isn't working? Even being able to tell someone that can be really hard to admit. Here are some tell tale signs that what you are trying isn't working for you or your little one....

😴You are Exhausted and ready to give up
💤You feel like you have tried EVERYTHING
😴You don't know WHY your little one isn't sleeping
💤Time to yourself is a thing of the PAST...
😴 A night of more than 3 hours solid sleep sounds perfect
💤It takes your little one HOURS to fall asleep

There are so many more signs, but honestly ONE of these are bad enough!

I want to let you know that it DOESN'T HAVE TO BE LIKE THIS. There is a solution. Lets imagine what you would like your little ones sleep to be like.... see it as clear in your mind as possible... how does that make you feel? That is absolutely possible. It CAN and WILL be yours without leaving your little one to cry it out.

If we were all to sleep when our little ones slept how much sleep would you get? Pop a comment below 👇with your answer!

The Family were fantastic to work with! Such huge results and a great change for all in a short time:

We were lucky enough to win a sleep package with Joanna and it has been the best prize ever!
Our little boy’s sleep had deteriorated to the stage everyone was exhausted, our evenings were spent trying to get him to sleep and everyone was grumpy.
Joanna started with an assessment then spent 3 bedtimes with us, supporting us to change our bedtime routine and by night 2 there was already a massive difference! We then had another 2 weeks of support through WhatsApp and phone calls and no question was too silly or trivial.
I can’t recommend Joanna enough, she is the loveliest person and it works!

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY

To all you amazing dad's out there who are doing a great job or are a dad-to-be. I hope you all have a lovely day and enjoy spending time with your family.

I would also like to give my own dad a little shout-out. I honestly couldn't ask for a better dad, and you are always there to help and support me no matter what. Thank you for everything you do and enjoy today 💕 ❤️ xx

Have a fab day all !

This weather is absolutely beautiful🌞🔥

The only problem is, when you are trying to sleep in this heat, it can be unbearable.

Imagine how your little one feels when they can't tell you how they feel trying to settle to sleep.

Here are my top tips to keeping you and your little one cool while we are experiencing this heat wave:

1. Put their pillow or soft toy in the freezer before they go to bed. Put it in a bag a couple of hours before you are putting them to bed, this will mean that it will be cool for them in bed.

2. Keep blinds and curtains shut through the day. This prevents the room from becoming overly warm.

3. Open your loft hatch and any windows you have there to allow the heat to rise.

Have you tried any of these? let me know what works for your little one in the comments!
