Courtney arrived in a hurry at just 39 weeks pregnant Natalie thought she had another week or so to prepare for becoming a mother, but Courtney had other ideas.
Despite being early Courtney was a healthy size and started feeding immediately following birth, the weeks that followed were a daze of feeding, spilling and crying constantly as Courtney spilled up the majority of her feeds, and was constantly upset from being in pain, tired or hungry.
Natalie was exhausted from constantly feeding, rocking to sleep and holding a screaming newborn baby...

I often get asked why I do what I do.
Alongside my belief that good sleep is vitally important to the way children are able to grow and develop (and the way we, as adults, can function!), I’ve proven time and again that the early years of parenting don’t have to be fraught with the torture of sleep deprivation.
Not only that, I get genuinely excited about helping struggling parents discover this too.
And I believe this help is genuinely needed…

We all know (and have felt) that instant reaction when we hear our baby or child cry – there’s not much that tugs on the heartstrings more quickly.
You may also have come across the idea that your baby has different cries that mean different things.
However, whether you can tell your baby’s hungry cry from their tired cry, the fact remains that crying is a baby’s way of communicating.
Despite the pull on our heartstrings, our baby’s cries are not created equal – by which I mean, their cries are not always communicating despair. Nor do they always result in the release of cortisol, or signal the same level of stress reaction...

Yes, it’s true. When babies stay awake too long before bed, their bodies release cortisol (a stress hormone).

More on this (plus real solutions) in our new blog.

A lot of people assume wrongly that sleep training is synonymous with cry it out. Simply put, that when someone mentions doing some sleep training, they mean leaving your baby to scream all night long....

For Noelle, night-time had been for co-sleeping; cuddles with Mum and Dad and feeding on demand.

While her parents felt this was a lovely start to life for her, they’d began to feel that it might be time to move her into her own cot soon. Noelle was waking 4-5 times during the night and her mum had taken to sleeping in another room with her.

By the time Noelle was nine months old, her mum Kylie was tired and knew it was time to make some changes...
