FAQ’S
What sleep training methods do you use?
You will soon learn when we work together that I am not your traditional sleep consultant! 😉 Intuitively guided and responsive, my coaching is shaped for you and by you! At Sleep Thrive Grow it is not about teaching your baby to sleep, believe it or not they can do this already! It’s about tailoring your unique and responsive support system to compliment you intuition and allow you to feel empowered with ways and tools to support your baby during the sleep process.
Our babies are just so different! This allows for the coaching to evolve and to be truly personal based your baby’s responses and behaviour. You can be reassured that you will never be asked to leave your baby to cry it out or timed checks. Attuning to your baby’s needs is what we are passionate about.
Will my baby cry?
Most likely in the beginning and it often depends hugely on your baby’s unique temperament too! As a mother myself, my purpose is always to reduce as much stress surrounding changes as possible and adjust where needed. Crying however is a healthy and natural way for your baby to communicate to you that something in their life has changed, as well as a normal sound of a tired baby, so please do not see this form of expression as a bad thing.
I will be providing you with all the tools you need to be a supportive presence for them, while changes are evolving. You will be guiding your baby every step of the way. My clients are often surprised how short lived it really is.
How long does it take to see results?
Positive changes can begin to unfold within a few days! My 14-day packages are designed to allow for a natural progression without the additional pressure for you or your baby. Sometimes extensions are added at a small additional cost depending on how many areas of sleep we are focusing on and how you and your baby have found the journey so far.
Other pieces to the sleep puzzle that can influence the pace of change, include your baby’s unique temperament, age, our sleep focus points and previous sleep history. However, be reassured there is no right or wrong! Take away the pressure because you are adjusting together! Our unique support system thrives on open communication, consistency, patience, and commitment. Remember I will be here to support you every step of the way!
What is unique about your packages?
Our packages do not follow an A-Z system they evolve with you! We are not about “fixing” a sleep behaviour and sending you on your merry way, waiting for the next sleep disruption to throw you off kilter, we are here for the long-term approaches to sleep! Encompassing the knowledge of sleep science, Nursing, and mothering three very different children, our packages are designed specifically to allow you and your child to grow and develop together. As a (soon to be) qualified level 2 mind-body practitioner, mindset and coregulation add another element to your unique coaching experience. You will leave with a whole tool box of responsive and respectful ways to keep guiding and supporting your baby for years to come!
