Rice cereal in the milk bottle?!

I get asked all the time if parents should put rice cereal in their babies milk bottles before they go to bed. The only answer I ever give is NO!

Firstly, it does not actually help with sleep! Secondly, if your baby is not old enough to be eating solids then all you are doing by giving them rice cereal in the milk bottle is upsetting their under developed digestive system which can cause ongoing issues.
Thirdly, if your baby is old enough for solids, then focus on the types of solids you were giving them during their awake periods to make sure that they are digesting their food adequately. This will encourage better sleep!

As a sleep consultant, one thing I’ll never compromise on is safe sleep 🤍
Especially when families choose to co-sleep or bed share.

Babies grow and move fast. A space that felt safe last month can quickly become risky once they start rolling, wriggling or crawling. If a baby can move, their sleep environment must protect them from falls and suffocation hazards.

A few key safety reminders 👇
• Make sure your baby can’t roll or fall out of the bed
• Keep the sleep space clear of loose blankets, pillows and soft items
• Ensure your mattress is firm and flat
• Be mindful of gaps between mattresses, walls or bed frames
• Dress baby warmly instead of adding extra bedding

Safe sleep isn’t about fear, it’s about setting up the environment so everyone can rest with confidence.

💬 Free support:
If you’d like a second set of eyes, I’m offering a free sleep space safety check.
Send me a DM with a photo or short video of your baby’s sleep environment and I’ll give personalised feedback and guidance on creating a safer setup for your child.

This is 3mo Robbie! He has severe reflux, has only ever been able to do 25 minutes in his cot and otherwise relies on contact naps. This was his first day of “sleep training” and the first time he ever resettled himself during a cot nap. We didn’t use any controlled crying or cry it out! In fact, we supported him the whole time we put him to sleep, made some subtle holistic adjustments to his routine and from DAY 1 he is already doing things he has never been able to before! Not only did he self sooth for the first time, but he slept for 1.5 hours in his bed. This is why I do what I do! Can’t wait to see how Robbie’s Sleep Journey continues 🫶

This is a beautiful post from one of those families who did exactly this and his ended up sleeping 12 hours a night. Just another reason that I love what I do! So grateful for every opportunity families give me when they choose to work with me! 🫶

Hot days can make sleep tricky for little ones ☀️💤
Keeping your baby cool and comfortable is key to safer, more settled sleep during warm weather.

✔️ Dress in light layers
✔️ Choose breathable cotton fabrics
✔️ Use fans or cooling to keep the room comfortable (ideally between 18-22 degrees)
✔️ Offer extra feeds to support hydration
A cool baby is a comfortable baby 🤍
If you’re unsure how to adjust sleep during hot weather, I’m here to help.
