Julie and Ziggy, 8 months.

Untitled design (20)

Sleep deprivation was even more difficult than I had anticipated and I already knew I'd seriously miss my sleep! Desperation, fear and guilt as well as a completely muddled mind were just some of the symptoms. It felt like everything was falling apart. Emma came to the rescue when Ziggy was almost 8 months old, after a recommendation from a friend a couple of months earlier. Two weeks later I was kicking myself for not arranging to meet her earlier! Like many new Mum's out there, I wanted to bel…

Gillian and Gully, 2yrs 4mths

overnight feeding

Emma was fantastic and I’m only sorry we didn’t get in touch with her sooner. Our 28-month-old was going to bed well most nights but waking several times throughout the night and wanting bottles of milk. We knew he was too old for it (the milk particularly) but breaking the habit felt impossible. And we were wrung out! Enter Emma. She spent a lot of time understanding our situation, she devised a plan - and voila, it worked. Astoundingly, immediately. Several weeks on we have a happy toddler who…

Jenny and James, 5 months

Untitled design (21)

I struggle to find words to thank Emma. Before we made contact with Em I was filled with anxiety around my son James's (5 months) sleep. I felt a real uneasiness in my own home never quite knowing how long he would sleep for. He was cat napping during the day, an extremely fussy feeder and needed to be rocked to sleep most nights. After Emma, we now have James sleeping two short and a long nap at lunchtime, his feeding has improved out of sight and putting him to sleep at night is a dream. All t…

Heather and Norah, 6 months

Untitled design (22)

Emma was the hope I clung onto that we would one day sleep again and she delivered! My 6 month old had been waking every 40 minutes all night long and needing to be fed back to sleep for a month and only napping in my arms, the carrier or the car her whole little life- and those naps were now down to 2-3 x 20 minute naps a day. I was staunchly against sleep training because I had been completely guilted into thinking I would damage my beautiful little baby and she wouldn’t think I loved her anym…

Kirsty and Sam, 9 months

Untitled design (23)

As gorgeous as our 9 month old Sam is, we decided it was time to contact Emma when his sleep pattern started affecting the whole family. My partner and I were constantly grumpy and we had limited patience or time for our 5 year old son who needed us aswell. I’m a midwife so we sailed through the first 4 months, I knew what I was doing, but then things started to unravel and we didn’t really put up any boundaries, we just thought it would sort itself out. Basically Sam was having a big 2-3 hour s…

Jane and Liv, 9.5 months

Emma literally saved our little family! We made a call to Emma in a very fragile and sleep deprived state and we are SO glad we did! We have tried co-sleeping, comforters, sleeping bags, white noise, dummies, rocking, patting, shushing and every other tip that we had heard to try help our little girl sleep but we were still up 6-10 times a night. Emma was super positive and completely fostered our parenting style to get some amazing results for our bub - and 2 very sleep deprived parents! It was…

Kate and Benji, 9.5 months

Untitled design (25)

As soon as I spoke to Emma I immediately felt completely comfortable and at ease. We welcomed her into our home shortly afterwards and it was a pleasure to meet her. Benji would only feed to sleep, would wake often very unsettled and his day sleeps were all over the shop. From the day we started working with her, Benji's day sleeps became easier, no more feeding to sleep and he sleeps through and is generally at night is far more settled when he does wake (and now self settles back to sleep).

Misha and Jordan, 11 months.

Untitled design (26)

When my son was 2-8 months old he was not a great sleeper; he was a colicky baby who would cry for hours on end, waking up many times a night. So at 10 months when he was going to bed at 9pm and waking up 3 times a night I really didn't think it was that bad. I resigned to the fact that it was normal for a mum to be waking up throughout the night and he was very easily fed back to sleep so I didn't like to complain, even though I was starting to get tired of it.

A couple in my parents group rec…

Bianca and Emily, 6 weeks

Untitled design (27)

Emma has worked wonders for our little Emily. I asked for her help when Em was just 6 weeks. I did this for two reasons; firstly I’m new to being a mum and secondly, Emily was having issues feeding and sleeping. These days you can get advice from everywhere so I read blogs, websites spoke to friends and family but found it all a little overwhelming and contradictory. I wanted to keep it simple so I sought advice from a professional. Emma was amazing!!! She armed me with knowledge I needed to mak…

Sophie, 17 months

“Emma was kind enough to visit our home and meet Sophie. With Emma’s insight and expert advice she guided us into implementing and maintaining sustainable routines and structure that would enable us (and most importantly) Sophie to sleep through the night.

Night 1 - Sophie woke only once. Night 2 - Sophie slept right through the night. Since then, so far sooo good! We were and still are amazed at how well Sophie has adapted to her new sleep schedule after being held, bounced or rocked for 17 mont…
