My Summary

My Experience

I've always worked with children of all ages in different settings: nursery, school, playgroup, nannying, special needs, night nannying, sleep routines. I have experience with babies from newborn up to 12 years old. I love to help parents establish a good and structured routine, which results in a happier and more contented children. My aim is to make sure that your baby gets the correct milk intake between 7am and 11pm, by scheduling their feeds and sleep correctly in a 24 hour period. Once your baby has the dream feed and drops the middle of the night feeds, he/she should sleep peacefully until 6/7am, eventually dropping the dream feed.
I feel passionate about my work, helping new Mum's & dads, and getting baby onto the right routine, resulting in less anxiety and sleepless nights for Mum and Dad. I do believe in encouraging a baby to self-settle and to encourage healthy sleep habits, but I respect the wishes of every parent, and am flexible in my approach. I am also available to help settle Mum and baby in after arriving home from hospital with your lovely new baby. I will support and guide in all aspects of baby care, and guide on a feeding and sleeping routine if wanted. I have worked with new born babies with colic/reflux, skin problems, asthma, wheezing breast fed babies, bottle fed, weaning, food prep, constipation and much more which I can discuss with you. I have also worked with all ages of children some with many different requirements, i really enjoy my job.
