A little behind-the-scenes share from me today… it’s been a big week in our house! My youngest has just started secondary school, his brother’s gone into sixth form, and my eldest will be heading off to Canada in a few months. All the emotions — proud, teary, excited (sometimes all at once 🙈). Just like so many of the families I work with, life is full of milestones and changes, and sometimes it feels like it all happens at once! So if you’re feeling emotional about your little one growing up, trust me — you’re not alone. 💙

✨ Twin Sleep Success Story ✨

At just 6 months old, these lovely twins were struggling with short naps and frequent night wakings. Their parents were exhausted and unsure how to get everyone the rest they needed.

With a gentle, structured plan and consistent support, we worked together to establish healthy sleep habits. Before long, both babies were sleeping longer stretches at night and taking restorative naps during the day.

💤 Two happy, well-rested babies.
💤 Two parents finally catching up on sleep.
💤 One very proud sleep consultant.

Here’s what their parents had to say:

💬 “We couldn’t recommend Caroline enough, she helped us with our 6 month old twins getting them to sleep through. Before we contacted Caroline they were waking up crying every 1-1.5 hours, we would spend the majority of our nights rocking both babies to sleep - we were literally on our wits ends living off three hours broken sleep a night. Caroline spent the evening at our house where she gave us so much advice and helpful tips, we stuck to the routine she gave us with a T and by night 3 our twins were sleeping through! Our twins have learnt to self soothe for naps and throughout the night. It has changed our lives and we are very grateful. Thank you so much Caroline”

Helping families find peace and rest is why I do what I do. 💙

✨ I’ve been a little quiet on social media this summer, but it’s been anything but quiet in real life! After a lovely holiday, I’ve dived straight back into supporting families, including Night Nannying for a beautiful newborn who is now just two weeks old. 💕

It’s such a privilege to be invited into those first precious weeks, giving families not only the gift of rest but also gentle guidance and reassurance as they settle into life with their new little one. 🌙👶

I never take for granted how special it is to walk alongside parents at this stage, and it really is the heart of what I love about being a sleep consultant. 💫

Had a lovely holiday — lazy mornings, unreal views, and plenty of time to just breathe. Strange having just the three of us instead of five, but we made some great memories. Waking up to scenery like this is going to be hard to leave — definitely worth a visit. 🇲🇪
Sorry if I’ve been quiet over the last week, If I haven’t responded to any client messages, I do apologise — I’ll be back on it tomorrow! 😉

✨ Client Success Story ✨
I’m always so grateful when families take the time to share their experience, and this one truly means a lot. After years of bedtime battles and sleep deprivation, this amazing family made the brave decision to seek support, and the results speak for themselves.

Helping parents feel confident, rested, and supported is exactly why I do what I do 💛

Here’s what they had to say:

👇

“Caroline has literally changed our lives. After never wanting to do any and resisting to all sleep training, she helped us with our three-year-old. After the arrival of a newborn we couldn’t continue in the same way. After years of battles at bed time and numerous night wakes he now settles himself very happily at 6.30pm and stays in bed until 7am and is so much more content in the daytime. She also set us with a routine for our 12 week old who will also now happily go down giving us our evening and some rest back. Caroline is kind and offers brilliant advice tailored based on her experience to your family, helping cut through all the noise and confusion on social
media around baby sleep”

Every child is unique… and that’s exactly what makes parenting such an incredible (and unpredictable!) adventure. 💛

I was looking back at these photos of my two older boys, pulling faces and being completely themselves, and it reminded me how much personality shines through, even from such a young age.

Whether they’re wild, shy, strong-willed, sensitive, or full of beans (sometimes all in the same hour!)….there’s no “one size fits all” when it comes to parenting… and that includes sleep.

That’s why the sleep support I offer is always personalised to your child’s individual needs and temperament, because what works for one little person might not work for another.

✨If you’re struggling with sleep, I’m here to help you find gentle, workable solutions for your child and your family.

🍲✨ Why I’m Team Home-Made Baby Food 👶💚

New NHS guidance (June 2025) reminds us: baby pouches should be an occasional convenience, not a daily staple. And honestly? I couldn’t agree more.

Here’s why I recommend more real food, less pouch:

🥄 No hidden ingredients
Home-made means full control. No sneaky fillers, concentrates or fruit-heavy savoury meals that train a sweet tooth.

🧠 Supports oral and brain development
Textures teach babies to chew, mash and move food around their mouths. That’s the start of feeding skills, speech and even sleep readiness.

🍓 Natural flavours build confident eaters
Pouches often blend everything into one bland mix. Real food gives babies the chance to taste broccoli as broccoli — bitter, bold and beautiful.

🌍 Better for your wallet and the planet
One pouch can cost more than an entire tray of home-cooked veg. Batch cooking is budget-friendly and low waste.

Of course, life gets busy. Pouches have a place. But let’s raise eaters who love real food, not just suck on it.

💬 What’s one food your baby loved that surprised you? I’m building a real-food recipe list for families — share yours in the comments 👇

Here’s the full testimonial from one of my lovely clients below 👇

“I thought maybe I just had a baby that didn’t sleep... how wrong I was! I can’t believe what a difference Caroline has made and in such a short space of time too. I now have so much free time (from naps and 12 hours uninterrupted bedtime sleep) that I genuinely don’t know what to do with it! I’m able to give my baby so much more of myself as I now have the energy to do so! Life is on the up, one happy baby and mama!” (Google review).

✨ This smile says it all! ✨
This little one used to need constant holding — co-sleeping at night, contact naps in the day, and always in Mum’s arms to play. She just wouldn’t settle unless she was being held.⁠
⁠
Fast forward just a few days into sleep training, and now… ⁠
Mum can put her down awake, she settles quickly on her own, and sleeps beautifully through the night. ⁠
⁠
Even during the day, she’s happy to play independently, something that felt impossible not long ago.
⁠
I’ve overlaid some of Mum’s lovely messages (with permission!) in this post because her words say everything: the joy, the relief, and that “I can finally breathe” moment so many parents long for.
⁠
If you’re in the thick of contact naps, broken nights, and clingy days…..this is your gentle reminder: it can get better. And it might not take as long as you think.

☀️ Finally some sunshine in North Yorkshire! After what felt like weeks of grey, today’s beautiful weather is such a mood booster 🌿✨⁠
⁠
But just a little heads-up for tonight — we’re also welcoming a full moon 🌕, which can lead to a bit of a sleep shake-up, especially for our little ones (and let’s be honest… for us too).⁠
⁠
If bedtime feels a little more restless tonight, you’re not alone. Stay calm, stick to your routine, and it’ll pass soon.⁠
⁠
Sending sleepy vibes and sun-filled energy your way 💛⁠
