Sleep consultancy helping tired parents and their little ones get a better nights sleep.

22/10/2026

When I first spoke with Freddie’s mum, it wasn’t clear that she needed 1:1 support to improve his sleep, as we often see sleep change and go through more challenging periods, especially around 4 months.

After a 15 minute call, we’d decided to see how things went with a few simple adjustments. A few months later, she reached back out as sleep had changed more drastically and deteriorated. We set some goals and got to work - and within just two weeks, everyone’s sleep had been transformed.

If you are ready to transform sleep for your own family, get in touch to find out more about the process!

This Sunday the clocks go back one hour marking the end of British Summer Time. If your little one is sensitive to changes in routine, it can help to adjust them gradually beforehand.

Swipe for a few things you can do!

💤 T O P T I P Early morning wakes

Consider anything before 6am as still nighttime. If your little one wakes up before this, treat it the same way as you would if it was the middle of the night.

As 4-5am approaches, your little one will be entering a lighter stage of sleep, so anything that might be bothering them slightly will make it tricky to get back to sleep.

Here’s a few things to consider that could be keeping them awake:

✨Is it dark enough?

✨Is it too noisy?

✨Is it warm enough?

✨Are they hungry?

✨ Are they sleeping too much during the day?

🩵 If you need support with sleep or early waking, feel free to reach out by booking a free 15 minute call on the website.

One very common reason for night wakes can be hunger! Do yourself a favour and try giving your child one or more of these snacks before starting their bedtime routine to ensure their tummies are full. BONUS: they also naturally aid sleep!

🥜 Almonds: Packed with magnesium for muscle relaxation and stable sugar levels overnight.

🍌 Bananas: A powerhouse of magnesium, potassium, and tryptophan to promote sleep. Just remember, fruits contain natural sugars too!

🍗 Turkey: Aids sleep because it’s rich in tryptophan, which helps produce serotonin and melatonin - hormones that promote relaxation and regulate sleep.

🥛 Dairy: Yoghurt, milk, and cheese contain tryptophan to help them drift off. Bonus: calcium aids stress reduction (and no, cheese doesn’t cause nightmares!).

🍒 Cherries: A natural melatonin booster - fresh, frozen, or juice all work wonders.

🌾 Oatmeal: Rich in sleep-supporting minerals and great for bedtime snacks. For little ones, it may even help with fewer overnight nappy changes!

🥣 Cereal: Opt for whole-grain, sugar-free options to boost tryptophan levels without a sugar rush.

Multiple night wakings and needing lots of support from mum and dad had this little one and her family feeling very tired!

Short naps are a very common challenge for little ones and can happen for a number of reasons, but can also be normal for some babies!

If your baby takes short naps but seems well rested and nights are great - that may just be the norm for them!

For others, there could be another reason behind them, and making small tweaks to sleep routines could make a big difference.

If short naps are becoming an ongoing issue or affecting nights, book a free 15 minute call to discuss how we can support your family.

💤 T O P T I P Newborn awake windows 6-12

😴 Babies of this age can rarely stay awake longer than 60-90 mins.

😴 Keep an eye out for sleep cues to avoid your little one becoming overtired. These might include closing their fists, yawning or staring into space.

If you need support with your little one’s sleep, please get in touch to see how we can help!
