24.01.2022 So thankful for this review from a beautiful client

21.01.2022 Hi, Im Nicky aka the Baby Lady. I am the proud founder of the the Baby Lady Sleep Consultancy. I am passionate about helping babies & young children to improve their sleep patterns & in turn, returning balance & better quality of life to their exhausted families. I have helped hundreds of families to date & I get so much satisfaction from the results.... I am a Registered Nurse & Midwife who now specializes as sleep consultant for babies, toddlers & preschoolers. I have over 25 years of experience working with babies & young children all over the world, both in hospitals & family homes. I am also a Lactation Consultant & have an excellent knowledge on infant feeding & nutrition. Around 15 years ago I took an interest in the very specialized world of babies & their sleep patterns. I initially worked along side some very wise & experienced mentors who gave me the beginnings of the exceptional knowledge base that today I now call my own. It doesnt come from all the latest books that are sold by the thousands thats for sure. If the books were all correct, babies would all sleep well & there would be no need for people like me! The words Sleep Training often conjure up awful feelings of anxiety for parents visions of babies screaming in distress. Rest assured this is not how I operate. My approach to Sleep Training for little ones is holistic & hands-on. All babies have basically the same needs but all babies are different. My sleep packages are individualized for every baby & their situation in a caring & non-judgemental way. I specialize in ages 4mths 4 years, twins & managing multiple bedtimes - siblings of different ages. Newborns 4 months are too young for any official sleep training program however there are many tools & techniques that I can provide you with that will assist you with a more manageable life in the early weeks & help you set up some very basic good habits for your baby from 2-4 months of age. Lastly, I am a proud mother of 4 amazing children of my own. If you are one of the many parents out there struggling with lack of sleep - please get in touch for a free phone consultation.

06.01.2022 Sleep seems almost impossible for new mothers at times ... there are so many impacts to our health; life & relationships when we are deprived of sleep. Id love to help you & your family get more sleep https://www.bellybelly.com.au/post-/new-mothers-more-sleep/

04.01.2022 Thank you Amelia for your kind review ... I had a very difficult birth and a family member suggested I have Nicky come for a few nights to give me a break shortly after I returned home from the hospital. I was hesitant at the thought of a total stranger taking my newborn overnight so I could sleep but Nickys manner and approach made me feel immediately at ease. She was warm, kind, gentle and intuitive. I could tell she had done this a thousand times and her wealth of know...ledge from years of being a midwife was so reassuring. I was so sad when the 5 nights were up and she had to leave I stood at the door and waved goodbye through tears. We had Nicky come back twice again over the first 12 months when our baby was waking regularly overnight. She was practical and hands-on, somehow knowing when to encourage us to try techniques ourselves and knowing, when we found it difficult, to step in and take over. Our baby now sleeps overnight without waking. Having Nicky come to us was absolutely the best decision we made that year. She helped me navigate a challenging time with warmth and compassion. Nicky is truly one of a kind I cant imagine there is anyone out there more experienced, devoted to her work and brilliant at her job.

02.01.2022 Thanks so much Kate for your beautiful review I cannot recommend Nicky highly enough. As the mum of 4 week old twins i was exhausted. I, like every new mum was trying to figure out feeding, sleeping settling and everything inbetween and fairly overwhelmed. Nicky on our first discussion helped me simplify and relax the feeding, pumping and sleep routine. She did this without judgement and with such care and encouragement. ... I was incredibly focused on having a structured routine for the twins in terms of sleep - eat- play, I was probably on the extreme end of the structured spectrum. Nicky acknowledged this and helped me set the twins into a routine but also helped me realise that flexibility was equally important. Her clam nature, with compassion for both me and my children, as well as highly qualified and extensive experience made her an instant trusted support person for me. I often had questions beyond the time she was with us, and she always followed up a txt or email with an answer really quickly. I wish I could say my kids sleep through the night 100% of the time, but what Nicky has given me are the fantastic techniques to help resolve transition periods in their life. In a nut shell - we call her Our Mary Poppins.
