✨ End of Year Wrap-Up from Dream Sleep OT ✨

As we head into the holiday season, I just want to say a huge thank you to all the families who have trusted Dream Sleep OT this year 🤍

2025 has brought some big changes — including the launch of our Sleep Guides, expanded support for neurodiverse children, and the growth of services focused on sleep from an occupational therapy lens. It’s been such a meaningful year of learning, building, and supporting families where sleep truly matters.

We’re signing off to rest, reset, and dream up what’s next… and there is so much more coming in 2026 ✨

🎄 Wishing you a safe, restful and joyful holiday period
📅 Dream Sleep OT will return 27 January 2026

Thank you for being part of this journey — see you in the new year 🤍

"It's a journey" lame as it sounds, but it is true! Set backs happen, but next night is a chance to reset and try again!

Grateful for this feedback.
I appreciate every family who shares their experience working with me.
Supporting parents to feel confident and informed about their child’s sleep is always my goal.

Second Wind? Work With It
That late-night “second wind” is real — your brain naturally spikes in energy. Instead of fighting it, plan your evening routine around it. Use the spike for creative tasks, movement, or light activity, then gradually ease into calm for sleep. ⚡️🌙

Movement as Sleep Prep
Movement helps regulate the signals your brain uses to feel sleepy. Try a 5-minute stretch, gentle rock, or slow walk before bed to cue your system that it’s time to rest. 💤✨

Routines Are Safety, Not Perfection
Routines aren’t about being perfect — they provide safety and predictability for your nervous system. Tonight, start with a simple 2-step ritual: perhaps a warm drink + gentle stretch, or teeth brushing + dimming lights. Your brain will notice the predictability and relax. 💜

No Wrong Way to Soothe
Some people need quiet, some need movement, pressure, sound, or light. There is no wrong way to soothe your system. Notice what helps your body feel safe and calm, and honour it as part of your bedtime routine. 🌙✨

Sensory Overload and Sleep
Daytime sensory overload can show up as nighttime restlessness. Try reducing just one sensory input tonight — maybe dim the lights, lower the volume, or swap tight clothing for soft fabrics. Small changes often have a big effect on your nervous system. 💫

✨ Neurodivergent brains aren’t “broken sleepers” — they’re different sleepers. Each brain has its own rhythm, so your sleep may look different from the charts. This month, we’re celebrating unique patterns, sensory needs, and creative rest strategies. Honour your body, your system, and your needs. 🌌

18/11/2025

Ever wondered why some brains wind down like a gentle sunset… while others feel like they’re running a midnight marathon? 😴🔥

Sleep isn’t “one-size-fits-all.”

For our neurodivergent folks, night time can be shaped by sensory needs, regulation patterns, and how daily routines support (or challenge!) the body’s natural rhythms.

Here’s what we look at Dream Sleep OT for our families:
🌙 Sensory load throughout the day
🧩 Routines that build predictability
🎧 Tools that support calming input
🛏️ Environments that invite rest
✨ Strategies that honour individual brains instead of forcing them to be "normal"

The goal? Helping people find a sleep flow that actually fits them — not the other way around. 🌌

🤍 If you or someone you love experiences sleep differently, you’re not alone. There is a path toward more peaceful nights, and it starts with understanding how your unique neurology communicates needs.

Drop a zzzzz if you want OT-backed sleep tips tailored for neurodivergent brains!
