Does your baby wake regularly over night? 💤
This can be so challenging, exhausting, and make many families feel like it will ‘never end’.

Help is available! You are also not alone. I often hear from parents who are having challenges with their little ones night waking. Although night waking is normal right into toddlerhood. Excessive night waking is not normal and can be a sign that your little one’s biological sleep regulators may need a reset.

Biological sleep regulators:
- body clock
- sleep pressure

If you want to talk through your specific situation, work on a plan for your little ones re-set that will work for the whole family, and get everyone back to sleep as quickly as possible. Please reach out to book a Telehealth consult today. 💗

** please note this sleep support is with a registered psychologist trained in the NDC or possums sleep program. This is a biological and science backed approach to sleep that does NOT involve any sleep training methods.

Biological Sleep Education that is NOT sleep training 💤

This is aimed at parents or carers of babies under 12 months old or families currently pregnant.

This workshop aims to teach you about how sleep works and why we can’t ‘teach’ sleep 😴

This is an evidence based and science based approach. Dianne is an NDC practitioner ( Neuroprotective Developmental Care) and psychologist who is compassionate and understands how challenging it is navigating the conflicting advice parents receive.

Resources and handouts provided.

To book your place please email dianne@peaceandmind.com.au

Do you have a little one and want to get some support around sleep? Don’t want to sleep train? Well you don’t have to! 💗

I have been trained in the NDC also known as the Possums Sleep Program. I offer a biological lens when working with families. There’s no ridged routines or prescribed lists. Instead it’s about leaning more about how sleep works in order to optimise your babies biological sleep regulators.

If this sounds like something you would like please reach out to book a 1:1 sleep consult via Telehealth. 📞

Are you in the thick of it with a newborn struggling with sleep ? It can feel like it will never end!

Although you can’t teach a baby to sleep (no matter what anyone says)… there are some sleep suggestions that can help keep your babies biological sleep regulators healthy.

- sensory nourishment to support and build sleep pressure
- regular morning wake times (same time each day) to help with circadian clock
- day naps in the noise and daylight amongst the regular day to support circadian clock

But if you need further support regarding your little ones sleep please reach out for a 1:1 consultation via Telehealth.

Did you know the differences between emotional regulation and co-regulation?

Often we speak a lot about regulation. But there is a miss understanding that kids can regulate. Often we are not teaching regulation skills explicitly, instead we are focusing on co-regulation with our little ones. Teaching adults how to regulate and co-regulate with their kiddos. At times even as adults we are looking for someone to co-regulate with.

If you are needing support to build healthy regulation skills please reach out for an appointment with a trained therapist. I am currently taking new clients for Telehealth appointments.

Clinical EFT can be used during labour as a stress-reduction tool to lower fear. 🤯 🙌🏻

Have you used EFT during labour?

If you are pregnant and you’re thinking about tools to add to your tool kit - Consider if Clinical EFF might be a good fit for you!

Clinical EFT uses acupressure points (9 points) in which you tap on whilst verbalising your emotions/ feelings or sensations that you would like to reduce.

If this is something you would like to learn about please reach out to organise an appointment.

Sensory enrichment is important for your little one and you as well! ☀️

Getting out and about by making the most of the day can actually help your little one with their biological sleep regulators. 😴

Moving away from the sleep ‘lens’ and putting on the sensory ‘lens’ is a very different perspective in comparison to what you may regularly hear. But research shows that babies have a need for rich and changing sensory nourishment. 🌳 ☀️ 🛝 💦

What sensory adventures do you enjoy with your baby?

15/07/2024

You are the expert in your baby ❤️

There is so much to learn as a parent, we are often experimenting our way through parenthood. Learning as we go, especially when it comes to infant sleep 😴
