Sleep is complicated.
Getting support shouldn’t be.
Every family comes with different questions, worries and expectations.
Here are some of the things parents often want to know before we work together.
-
You don’t need to wait until everyone is completely exhausted.
If sleep has become a source of stress, uncertainty or tension in your family — whether that means frequent night waking, difficult bedtimes, short naps, early mornings or simply not knowing what to do next — it may be helpful to have someone look at the whole picture with you.
If you’re unsure, that’s exactly what the free discovery call is for.

I work with babies and toddlers, adapting my approach to your child’s age, development and individual needs.
For expectant parents and families with newborns up to three months, I also offer Prevention Coaching to help you understand infant sleep and build healthy foundations from the beginning.
-
No.
Some families come to me because they’re completely exhausted. Others simply want reassurance, clarity or professional guidance before a small concern becomes a bigger one.
There’s no minimum level of struggle required to ask for help.
-
Families often come to me for support with frequent night waking, difficult bedtimes, short or inconsistent naps, early waking, settling difficulties, changing sleep routines and other age-related sleep challenges.
But we don’t look at one symptom in isolation. Understanding what’s happening around your child’s sleep is an important part of finding the right way forward.
-
No.
My approach is attachment-oriented and centred around your child’s needs and your relationship with them. I won’t ask you to follow a method that requires you to ignore your child’s need for comfort or connection.
Crying can be communication, and we look at what your child may be communicating rather than treating crying as something that simply needs to stop.
-
No. Cry-it-out is not part of my approach.
We work with gentle, responsive strategies that take your child’s development, temperament, sleep needs and your family’s values into account.
The goal isn’t simply to make a child sleep independently. It’s to help your family develop healthier, more sustainable sleep while protecting connection along the way.
-
Yes.
My work is informed by sleep science, my professional training and my practical experience in a sleep laboratory.
But evidence is only one part of good coaching. Your child isn’t a set of data points. Recommendations also need to make sense for their development, temperament and your family’s circumstances.
-
Not unless that’s genuinely what your family needs.
There is no universal schedule that works for every child. We look at your child’s sleep needs, rhythms, cues, development and your family’s daily life before deciding what changes may be helpful.
The plan should fit your family, not the other way around.
-
Yes.
All consultations and coaching take place online, so we can work together wherever you are — and you can get the support you need without adding another appointment or journey to an already busy family life.
-
Not at all.
Tell me what’s happening and we can work out together what level of support makes the most sense.
That’s one of the reasons I offer a free discovery call.
Still wondering if Nestling is right for your family?
You don’t need to figure that out alone.
Tell me a little about what’s happening, and we’ll see together whether I’m the right person to help.
