16.01.2022 How freaking true is this one Poor nutrition and I'm grumpy, lazy and so moody. Poor sleep and I can't cope with life I feel like everything is crumbling around me and think everything is just so hard... Anyone else get like this?

13.01.2022 My goals are to teach you what you require to know so you no longer need me I want you to be in a position where you don't always need someone sitting next to you and making sure that you're doing it right

12.01.2022 Sleep training is NOT crying it out It's providing parents with education and guidance to support you with getting your little one onto a routine for better sleep Sleep training is the process of putting a baby/child into their cot/bed and having the capability to put themselves to sleep without any parental assistance.... When a parent asks me if sleep training is just about letting their child to cry it out, my answer is a simple NO! If that was the case, nobody would have any issues with their little one going to sleep and it would be as simple as that We have to look at the bigger picture: Some of the things I have to take into account are: Assessing sleep environments Wind down rituals Child's temperament Consistent techniques Nutrition Feeding Medical issues and many more So sleep training is not just about putting your baby down to sleep, walking and away and letting them cry for hours Crying it out is not the only way to teach self-settling either When you hear the words SLEEP TRAINING, what are your thoughts? Would love to know EVERY CHILD IS CAPABLE

We have 2 weeks to tackle everything together Want to know more about how I create your sleep plans or what the process is, book in for a free consult

10.01.2022 Have you got a strong willed and vocal toddler Do they show signs of being overstimulated after dinner and before bedtime Do you feel like you're a broken record:... "DON'T do it, STOP that, NO you can't have it, FORGET it and STOP bugging" For toddlers, discipline worded negatively is much harder to understand It's a bit like reverse psychology. Kids want directions, explanations and to be challenged and they also love to challenge adults or their peers! For example: Brody doesn't feel like eating or he doesn't want to eat dinner at the table with the rest of the family but that's the rule and expectations. Choose your battle. Instead of demanding what you expect of Brody, try this approach: "Hey Brody, I know you don't feel like eating dinner, you don't have too if you don't want too but you do need to come and sit at the table. He's getting a choice. He feels like he has some bit of power and control of his choices. Set a sand timer of 15/20 minutes. Give him as much praise as possible for coming to the table and CHANGE THE TOPIC! Once he is engaged in an interesting topic, his mood will lift and he may start picking at his food! Again, praise for eating his food! Have you tried evaluating your approach

09.01.2022 Did you know that babies are not afraid of the dark? Babies, toddlers and adults sleep better in the dark as darkness promotes sleep! Same goes for when we wake up during the night or the early hours of the morning. Sleeping in the darkness helps us to get back to sleep easier & faster! But Mary, the room is dark and my child still has trouble going back to sleep. ... Well, what do you do when you go into your child? Are you talking to them? Are you offering a drink of water? Are you bringing them into your bed? I know if somebody came into me during the night chatting and offering me a cuppa, it would wake me up and I would find it so hard to re-settle! Anyway, that's another topic!!! Normally after the age of 2, a night light doesn't serve much of a purpose and it can disrupt sleep! Children develop imagination skills from about 2 years of age onwards, sometimes earlier and sometimes later. I get a lot of clients asking me: "when can I introduce a night light"? I recommend delaying this for as long as possible as sometimes shadows makes their imagination run wild & it can validate their fears and then the 'monster' talk begins. Of course we need to acknowledge their fears and discuss this appropriately with them. If they become more and more fearful of the dark, then you can start talking about getting a night light. If you have to use one, I recommend a really low dim red or yellow night light! Are you going through this at the moment with your little one?
