For a long time, people have known me as the person who helps babies sleep.

And I still love doing that.

There is something incredibly special about watching an exhausted family finally experience rest again.

But over the years, I noticed something.

The conversations rarely stayed about sleep.

Mums would tell me they no longer recognised themselves.

They were anxious, overwhelmed, constantly on edge, carrying guilt, resentment or a quiet sadness they couldn't quite explain.

The broken sleep was part of the picture.

But it wasn't the whole picture.

Today, my work has naturally evolved.

I now support women through psychotherapy, nervous system healing and identity work, alongside helping families with sleep when that's what's needed.

Because sometimes the first step is helping your baby sleep.

Sometimes the first step is helping you feel safe enough to rest.

And often...

Both matter.

If you've found me through baby sleep but feel like you're longing for something deeper, I'd love to welcome you over to .

Where we care for the whole woman, not just the bedtime routine.

💜 Give yourself permission to take 5 minutes just for you
💜 Move your body – take a walk, stretch, or dance with the kids
💜 Jot down a few thoughts in a journal

A lot of the time when a family is going through a sleep crisis they are too exhausted to find a way out and carry out changes with sleep. Its easy to get stuck and feel frustrated but making changes is even harder, especially if you don’t know what to do, where to start and how to make sense of your Sleep Plan.

Do you feel stuck in between with only 2 choices; current night wakings versus Sleep Training and not sure which way to go? Not quite ready to Sleep Train?

Here are some small and simple Night Time Strategies.

🌜 Change the order of bedtime/consider a later bedtime
🌜 Implement a Bedtime settling technique
🌜 Use a side crib to be near the family bed
🌜 Change the person putting your baby to bed
🌜If one parent finds it easy to go to bed early, then they could go to bed at the same time as their child, while their partner takes the first shift until 1am at which point they switch.
🌜 Or one parent could take on responsibility for the first two to three nights, and then the second parent does the subsequent two to three nights. Sometimes some respite really can enable both parents can be more rested before embarking on making changes at night.
🌜 If finances allow engage outside help for nights or consider hiring a Sleep Consultant.
🌜 Use Habit Stacking (Replace feeding at bedtime with rocking)
🌜 Remove the sleep cue; so if the baby is used to mum breastfeeding, the partner takes over bedtime
🌜Replace some night feeds with rocking
🌜 Introduce a dream feed at 10pm for younger babies
🌜 Use Black out Blinds and White Noise
🌜 Consider a floor bed to help their childhood accept some changes

If you are suffering from Sleep Deprivation but not quite ready to start Sleep Training I offer One Off Sleep Solutions Calls.

What is a Sleep Crisis?

A Sleep Crisis is an urgent and unmanageable problem that can effect mental, emotional and physical health, effecting relationships within the household and includes higher signs of Sleep Deprivation. Sleep is a vital need and gaslighting parents by saying its normal, sleepless nights will and it’s a phase can be damaging. It could be a simple as bedtime resistance and struggles to implement bedtime routines.

A lot of the time when a family is going through a sleep crisis they are too exhausted to find a way out and carry out changes with sleep. Its easy to get stuck and feel frustrated but making changes is even harder, especially if you don’t know what to do, where to start and how to make sense of your Sleep Plan.

😴 If you are feeding to sleep, switch to rocking to sleep, preferably with your partner
😴 Share parenting and bedtime right from the beginning so your bay gets used to both parents
😴 Involve your partner in daytime activities and tag team/split chores
😴 Don’t compare yourself to your friends babies
😴 Keep daytime activities low key and don’t put pressure on yourself to have to attend baby classes. There is plenty of time for this as your baby gets older!
😴 Look at your capacity to change and how urgent the issue is. Prioritise what you would like to work on first
😴Be ok with cat naps! Give an extra nap if naps are not consolidated and when you are settling for naps try for 15 mins only. If your baby doesn’t fall asleep, get them up and do a low key activity in another room and try again later.
😴 Rule out other underlying causes of nighttime disturbance and health problems

If you are not yet ready to Sleep Train, there is still help available.

Hi, I’m Seema 🤍

I live in Essex with my husband and 3 daughters. I’m a Baby & Toddler Sleep Consultant, Psychotherapist, Birth Doula & Birth Trauma Therapist.

I’ve supported families for 18+ years — and I’ve lived sleep deprivation myself.
It left me feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and silently struggling.

Sleep training my daughters changed everything for me — and I share that unapologetically.

Now I’m on a mission to support mums who feel exhausted and alone 🤍

I know the fears:
“I don’t want to cry it out”
“I don’t want to drop feeds”
“I don’t want rigid routines”

That’s why I created a FREE masterclass to break it all down ✨

Inside you’ll learn:
📌 What sleep training really is
📌 Gentle, flexible approaches
📌 Night feeds, routines & real life balance

If you’ve been on the fence, this is for you 🤍

What is reflux?

Reflux is the involuntary regurgitation of stomach contents/and stomach acid. This can sometimes be normal, however frequent and repetitive is not. Silent Reflux is the same however the regurgitation forces the stomach contents into the Oesophagus, throat and mouth.

How do I know if my Baby has Reflux?

Signs to look for:

▸ Frequent Vomit
▸ Unsettled
▸ Discomfort
▸ Difficulty Sleeping
▸ Gas/Bottom Wind
▸ Feeding Difficulties
▸ Difficulties in sleeping/only sleeps with contact

Above all else ask yourself if you feel your baby has a feeding issue and trust your instinct.

I understand the struggles parents face when their baby experiences reflux.

If your baby is struggling with reflux, call me on 07581 410015 or pop me an email at [email protected]

When are we going to realise “cry it out” is not actually sleep training?

When parents reach out about sleep support, they often say, “But I don’t want to leave my baby to cry it out.”

Who does?

The thing that breaks my heart is—this is the biggest myth around sleep training.

❌ Cry it Out is just one method. It’s called Extinction—where a baby is left to cry with zero checks until morning.
In over 10 years, I’ve used this only 3 times—and only when parents specifically requested it.

I don’t advocate cry-based methods.

Here’s what I do instead:

💤 I’ve developed a gentle, In-Room Sleep Training Method—responsive, supportive, and tailored to your baby.

💤 My approach is grounded in scientific, age-appropriate methods.
Younger babies need hands-on support—no crying. Older babies respond well to gradually hands-off methods, always adapted to suit their temperament.

💤 I use habit stacking—introducing new, sleep-supportive routines before we even begin formal training. It’s like easing your baby into restful sleep, one step at a time.

💤 I integrate sleep science, biology, behaviour, and nervous system regulation into every plan.

💤 I offer a range of approaches—from gentle, hands-on settling, to stay-in-the-room methods, to extinction (used only with consent and care).

Because:

✨ Each baby is different.
✨ Each family has unique values.
✨ And sleep training isn’t just about sleep.

We also look at:

👉 Development
👉 Feeding + nap routines
👉 Bedtime patterns
👉 Sleep environment
👉 Safety + nutrition

All of these affect how your baby sleeps—and how you feel.

💛 If you’re in the thick of sleep deprivation, you’re not alone.

You don’t have to suffer through sleepless nights.
There’s a gentler way.
