Sweet Dreams Quality sleep is achievable..even when you feel like you have tried everything! Welcome to Sweet Dreams! Wishing you all a restful night's sleep.

My name is Beth, I am a Certified Infant and Child Sleep Consultant. I have recently graduated from the prestigious ''Sleep Nanny Academy'' and I am incredibly excited and passionate to be able to help many more families reach their sleep goals. I am based in Surrey, UK, however, I will be working with families all over the world. I am very lucky to be a mum of two little ones, Freddie (4 years old) and Arabella (6 months). I am excited to be able to share lots of valuable free sleep content which will hopefully give everyone some tips.

Half term is supposed to be a chance to make memories together… but when baby naps are a battle, even the simplest days can feel overwhelming

Spending 40 minutes trying to get the baby to sleep

Watching the morning disappear while the toddler waits for mum

Feeling torn between settling one child and giving the other the attention they’re asking for

And even when the baby finally falls asleep, it can be hard to relax when there’s a little one waiting downstairs

The guilt of not being fully present
The frustration of losing precious time together
The feeling of constantly letting someone down, even when you’re trying your absolute best

It’s exhausting being pulled in two directions, wanting to meet both children’s needs but feeling like there simply aren’t enough hours in the day.

And when every nap takes so much time and effort, it can start to feel as though the whole day revolves around getting the baby to sleep

But it doesn’t have to be this way

Gentle sleep support isn’t about leaving a baby to cry or ignoring their needs. It’s about understanding what’s happening with their sleep and having a clear, personalised plan to help make naps easier

Imagine spending less time settling the baby and having more time to enjoy the moments with both children — without feeling that constant pressure of what needs to happen next 🙌🏻

If baby naps are taking over the day and the thought of half term feels overwhelming, I’d love to help

✨ Comment below ⬇️ SUPPORT to book your FREE 30-minute discovery call with me.

We’ll talk through what’s happening with your baby’s sleep and how gentle, tailored support could help your family

You don’t have to keep trying to work it all out alone

It’s what months of broken sleep are doing to your relationship

* You’re the only one who can settle them
* Your partner feels helpless
* You’re resentful that everything falls on you
* He starts sleeping separately
* Your evenings disappear
* You stop having conversations that aren’t about the baby
* You’re functioning as parents… but barely feeling like a couple

This is why my support goes beyond ‘your baby to sleep through’

We work on the whole picture — so you know exactly what to do when your baby wakes, your partner can become part of bedtime and nights stop feeling like something you have to carry alone

If you’re ready for sleep to stop affecting your relationship, DM me the word SLEEP ✨

There is nothing more exhausting than a baby who needs to be held for every single nap

Every nap becomes a contact nap

Every attempt to put baby down ends in waking

The washing waits

Lunch gets eaten cold — or not at all

A hot cup of coffee becomes a distant memory

Even going to the toilet feels like something that needs to be planned

And the hardest part isn’t just the lack of sleep

It’s feeling like the entire day has become organised around getting a baby to sleep

Watching the clock

Calculating wake windows

Battling to keep baby awake…

Then battling to get baby to sleep

And wondering whether every nap is going to end with another hour of being stuck underneath a sleeping baby

But needing contact for every nap doesn’t mean a baby can’t learn to sleep another way

There is another way

Gentle sleep support doesn’t have to mean leaving a baby to cry

It can mean understanding what is keeping sleep stuck — and changing it responsively, step by step

DM me “SLEEP” if this is the kind of support that would make life feel manageable again

07/10/2026

How many times did they wake?

What time will bedtime be tonight?

Will tomorrow be another exhausting day?

And somewhere amongst all of that…

The conversation, the dinner, the laughter and the connection gets lost

Because sleep deprivation doesn’t just steal sleep

It can take away the little moments that keep a couple connected

Better sleep isn’t just about the night

It’s about getting the evening back, too

If better sleep would mean getting your evenings, energy and connection back, DM me SLEEP

I will help you understand what is keeping you stuck in this exhausting cycle and what can be changed 🙌🏻

The goal was never to make your baby ‘sleep through’…”

It was to stop you feeling like you have to be the only person who can get them back to sleep

To move away from the sole dependence on you

Because when feeding is the only way your baby will fall back to sleep, it can start to feel like:

“Only I can do this.”
“My partner can’t settle them.”
“What if they wake when I’m not there?”
“What if they genuinely need me?”

And so you keep going

You feed.
You cuddle.
You rock.
You resettle.

Even when you’re absolutely exhausted

Not because you don’t want to change things

But because you are too exhausted and your baby will only settle with you

And this is where many mums get stuck

You can be responsive to your baby and still change the way they fall asleep

You don’t have to stop breastfeeding.
You don’t have to ignore your baby when they cry
You don’t have to leave them to feel alone

You just need to understand what your baby actually needs at each waking and have a clear, gentle plan for changing the parts of sleep that are no longer working for your family

Because the aim isn’t simply: “Get baby to sleep through.”

Instead

To help your baby sleep more independently, while you still feel completely confident that you’re responding to them

And imagine what that could mean for you…

Your partner being able to settle them
Not having to dread every night waking
Not automatically reaching for a feed every time they stir
Going to bed knowing you have a plan
And finally feeling like you don’t have to carry the whole night on your own

If you’re ready to understand why your baby is waking and make the right step by step changes ➡️ DM me the word SLEEP

1. How does your baby fall asleep at bedtime?
2. What happens when they wake during the night?
3. Are they feeding at every wake, or comfort feeding and then continuing to wake?
4. What does daytime sleep look like?
5. Detail on daytime feeds?

You don’t treat every night waking as a separate problem. You look for the pattern connecting them.

This is what you have been missing.. treating each wake up individually and not looking at the whole picture

Your baby is not low sleep needs or a ‘bad sleeper’

You need clarity and answers ⬇️👏

A bespoke plan and solution that is aligned to your baby’s sleep needs and temperament

An expert to tell you what to change, when and how

If you are ready for me to look at your specific situation DM me the word SLEEP

Think your baby can’t self-settle? Here are 5 signs they actually are…⬇️

Self-settling doesn’t always mean your baby quietly lies down, closes their eyes and falls asleep without a peep

In fact, some of the signs are much more subtle

You might notice your baby:

✨ Banging their legs up and down
✨ Flapping their arms in the air
✨ Shaking their head side to side
✨ Sucking their hands feet or comforter
✨Soft intermittent cries with pauses (tired cry)

And this is something I look at closely when I work with families

Next time you observe your baby showing any of these signs I would recommend to pause to give them a moment before intervening

They may surprise you and briefly during the night and manage to fall back asleep without your help.. this is the first sign of resettling themselves 👏

“Why can’t I work out what my baby needs”

Every bedtime, every night waking you are second guessing what you are doing

2am the self doubt starts to creep in

You suddenly feel completely alone and your baby’s cries are a real trigger to your anxious thoughts

There is a solution ⬇️

To hear your baby cry without immediately feeling that sinking sense of here we go again

To approach bedtime with calm rather than anxiety of what the night ahead holds

Because you are able to relax and know your baby will have a good night sleep just like the last night and tomorrow night

You aren’t angry with your partner

You are exhausted from being the person who feels you should know the answer every time 😮‍💨

“I don’t know either. I just feel like I’m supposed to”

My 🔝tip to enable your partner settle your baby
Have them involved with bedtime (regardless if breast or bottle fed) dad do bath time and stories. Then move to dad doing bedtime settling and this will stop the night time rejection and reliance on you

You can feel supported, understood and confident that you do not have to carry the mental load of every cry alone

Instead you know the reason for your baby’s cry, you know how and when to respond

Then you will get to a place where all night time tears will stop ➡️instead you and your baby can peacefully

If you are ready to have flexibility with your evenings and your partner confidently do bedtime

You aren’t expecting miracles but you cannot continue with being mum 24/7 without a pause button

The random nights of better sleep with no rhyme or reason

Feeling touched out because your baby will only respond to your comfort

Filled with anxiety before the evenings begin and by 7pm you have nothing left in the tank

Your life feels consumed by sleep

Instead you want to :

✨Look forward to your evenings and enjoy adult conversation with your husband that you have not seen all day

✨Enjoy your maternity leave and not feel guilty for needing time to yourself

✨Commit to social meet ups with friends and have the confidence to sign up to a term of baby classes

✨Feel relaxed in your tidy home and everything feeling organised and your mind in control

✨Book a date night!

✨Say yes to a lunch date with a pre baby friend

Instead of waiting in hope that this ongoing phase that now feels like a lifetime will just pass

Let’s put an end to your exhaustion and enable you to thrive instead of survive
