Rina's Story
Why she became a sleep consultant
My journey into children’s sleep began in 2018, when I became a mum to my daughter. At around six months old, she was waking hourly throughout the night and taking short 30–45 minute naps during the day. I was exhausted and felt completely lost about how to help her sleep better. I remember just how difficult those days and nights felt and how much sleep deprivation affected our whole family.
We eventually sought the help of a qualified paediatric sleep consultant, and the difference was incredible. Seeing how much better my daughter slept, and how positively this transformed life for all of us, sparked a passion in me for understanding children’s sleep. I wanted to learn more and be able to support other families experiencing the same exhaustion and uncertainty.
"This led me to retrain and achieve a Distinction in the OCN Level 5 Sleep Practitioner Programme with the London School of Childcare Studies. "
What started from my own experience as a tired mum has grown into a genuine passion for helping families find calmer nights, more restful sleep and happier days together.
How we work with families
Evidence-based, not trend-based
Plans are backed by science and support is adapted to your child. Every recommendation is rooted in peer-reviewed pediatric sleep research.
Flexible, family-centered methods
There's no single approach for sleep. Our consultants work with your parenting values and comfort level, so the plan feels just right.
Education over prescription
We help you understand the plan, not just follow it. You get the "why" behind each step, so you can respond with confidence.
