Thank you for taking the time to check out my site, you may be wondering a little about me..
First and foremost, I am a wife and a mother of 2 gorgeous little people - my oldest, Miss C, was one of those babies that seemed to hate sleep. I spent countless hours reading blogs and parenting forums and trying different ways to get her to sleep, all of which were unsuccessful.
Eventually, with the support of a sleep consultant, Miss C became a better sleeper. (Too good in fact - now, she is like a grumpy teenager and often not wanting to get out of bed until she absolutely has too..)
My little guy, Mr M, was the opposite, always a great sleeper (thankfully!) - which I attribute to putting into practice what I had learnt previously.
I've worked with children and families for 10 years in the community services field and the desire to combine those skills with supporting families who endured similar struggles to what we went through with Miss C, eventually led to me returning to study and starting Dream On..
Sleep is a basic human need.. Sleep deprivation impacts everything - our mental health, our ability to cope, our behavior and ability to think clearly, our relationships with our loved ones and how we parent our babies - the benefits of a good nights sleep are well known.
Sleep training does not have to mean leaving your baby to cry it out, sticking to a regimented schedule with no flexibility or being unable to baby wear - nor does it mean doing anything that may impact on your bond with your bub - there are absolutely gentle, child focused and loving ways to teach your child to sleep - feel free to contact me to see if Dream On can help you get a better nights sleep.

At Dream On, we understand that every child and family are different and the challenges they face with getting their little ones to sleep are unique.
As a certified infant and child sleep consultant, I’m here to help you find the solutions that suits your child, your parenting style and your family as a whole.
We know how it feels to hear our own baby cry and that’s why where possible, we will do all that we can to keep your baby’s tears to a minimum.
Dream On are not supportive of the Cry It Out (CIO) method and believe that there are much gentler, child focused and respectful ways to sleep train your little one.
Our techniques are much gentler and customised to your family's needs!
When your baby is upset, they need the comfort of their mum or dad, and at Dream On, cuddling and responding to your child during the process is encouraged. If your baby is upset and crying out for you, why shouldn't you be able to go in and provide the comfort that they need?
Bedtime should be a process that is enjoyed by both the parents and the child, not something that you dread!

“Will I be leaving my baby to cry?”
If you are thinking that you will be leaving your baby alone to ‘cry it out’ for a long period of time and not go in to give comfort, think again. I wouldn't sleep well if left to cry myself to sleep, and nor would anyone else - including your little one. Our methods are gentle and while we can't guarantee no tears, we do encourage cuddling, responding too and settling your baby or toddler throughout the entire process.
“My baby has always been a bad sleeper.”
Most babies are not ‘just bad sleepers’, they may have bad sleep habits or associations, but these can be easily improved. They just need to learn ways to improve their habits - this is where we can help!
“Will my baby sleep through the night?”
Unfortunately there is no definitive answer as all babies and toddlers are different. While I can't promise you that your little one will sleep through the night, I can say we can work toward improving their sleep and get you all some much needed rest.
“I have tried sleep training before and it doesn’t work.”
Assisting your baby to sleep can be a bit of puzzle. If there is one piece missing, it just won’t work - perhaps the routine isn't in line, or the method has been inconsistent. Dream On is here to assist you in putting all of the pieces together and guide you every step of the way.
