Why Families Choose Me:
You do not need more generic sleep tips. You need support that fits your child, your parenting style, and your real life.
I help families create lasting sleep changes with a gentle, responsive approach. Every plan is tailored, practical, and designed to feel manageable, whether you are looking for virtual support or in-home support across the South West.
Families choose me because I offer:
-
gentle, non-judgmental support
-
personalised plans rather than one-size-fits-all advice
-
specialist experience with babies, toddlers, and older children
-
support with anxiety-related sleep challenges and bedtime struggles
-
ongoing reassurance and troubleshooting throughout the process
-
I can help if your child is…
-
waking multiple times a night
-
needing feeding, rocking, or your presence to fall asleep
-
resisting bedtime or taking hours to settle
-
waking very early in the morning
-
struggling with naps or nap transitions
-
anxious at bedtime or fearful at night
-
coming into your bed repeatedly
-
finding routine changes hard to managenage
I offer gentle sleep training for babies, toddlers and young children in Bristol and beyond.
Why personalised support works
Sleep advice online can be helpful, but it is often too general for real family life.
Your child has their own temperament, routines, developmental stage, and emotional needs. That is why I create a tailored plan and guide you through it step by step.
Together, we work out what is really driving the sleep challenge, what changes will help most, and how to make progress in a way that feels right for your family.
Families come to me when they feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and unsure what to try next.
With the right support, sleep can improve.

Testimonials
Louise and Jack
"Working with Kath has been fantastic. Our little one is 12 months old; she was waking frequently through the night and would only be fed to sleep. Kath came up with a plan that we felt happy with and suited our starting point, taking into account the individual needs of our daughter. She explained the gentle approach in small steps so that they felt manageable and not at all overwhelming.It’s been amazing to have her support throughout this time; she has regularly been in touch to see how we’ve been getting on and has been available for any questions that we had. Within two weeks, including a period of illness, our little one is now sleeping through the night and napping well in the day. We’d highly recommend Kath’s services."
Anna
"I cannot recommend Kath more highly. Sleep training of any sort can feel tough, however Kath has been lovely to speak to and has provided lots of support, encouragement and professional advice. Using Kath’s advice and gentle approach we have gone from co-sleeping and feeding back to sleep up to once an hour throughout the night to my baby being happy to go to sleep in his cot in his own room with minimal fuss and sometimes sleeping through. Our whole family is sleeping much better and we are all happier as a result! "
Ruth
"Kath was a fantastic sleep consultant from the outset. We were worried that our 6 year old’s sleep habits would be impossible to change but Kath had a clear plan for what we needed to do.
She was extremely knowledgeable and calm in her consultation and talked us through how to implement the changes.
We felt fully supported throughout and the sleep patterns of our daughter have changed beyond recognition – uninterrupted nights and sleeping later each morning. Amazing! We can’t recommend Kath highly enough!"
