My Experience
With over 30 years of experience in early childhood care, I’ve dedicated my career to supporting young children and the families who love them. I began my journey with an NNEB Childcare & Education qualification, and over the years I’ve continued to deepen my knowledge through advanced training in sleep science, including the OCN Level 6 Sleep Practitioner Programme and Holistic Sleep Coach certification.
Before founding my sleep consultancy, I worked as a nanny, nursery nurse, and childcare professional, and I also ran my own Ofsted-rated Outstanding setting. These roles gave me a rich understanding of child development, emotional wellbeing, and the unique needs of each family.
My passion for gentle, responsive care is shaped not only by professional experience but also by my journey as a mother to two prematurely born boys. I understand the fragile early months, the uncertainty, and the deep desire to do what’s best for your child. This personal experience strengthened my belief in holistic, relationship-based support—where children feel safe, understood, and nurtured.
Today, I bring together science, intuition, and empathy to support families with confidence and compassion. My mission is simple: to help every child feel secure enough to rest, and every parent feel supported enough to breathe.
