Sleep Consultant Stroud
Sleep difficulties can affect every part of family life, from your energy levels to your confidence as a parent. I support families across Stroud who are dealing with unsettled babies, challenging bedtimes, frequent night waking, or sleep issues that seem to resurface as children grow.
I work with babies, toddlers and children up to the age of 10, offering personalised sleep support that takes into account your child’s development, personality and emotional needs. Whether you are at the very start of your parenting journey or navigating sleep challenges with an older child, my aim is to help you move towards calmer nights and more settled days.
Many families in Stroud come to me feeling exhausted, unsure what advice to trust, or worried that poor sleep has become the norm. With the right guidance and support, positive changes are possible at any stage.
Sleep Support for Babies, Toddlers and Children in Stroud
No two families experience sleep challenges in the same way. Some parents struggle with sleep from the newborn stage, while others find difficulties emerge during toddlerhood or once children become more aware, anxious or independent.
I offer tailored sleep support for:
• Babies and infants
• Toddlers and pre-school children
• School-aged children up to 10
Rather than applying a set method, I take time to understand what is happening in your home, what your child needs, and what feels realistic for your family. From there, we build a plan that supports long-term, healthy sleep.
A Whole-Family Approach to Sleep
Sleep is rarely just about bedtime. Developmental stages, emotional wellbeing, routines, sleep associations and the sleep environment all play a role. By looking at the full picture, I help families identify the factors affecting sleep and guide them through changes that feel manageable and supportive.
Consultations are available online for families across Stroud and the surrounding areas, with in-home options discussed where appropriate.
Baby Sleep Support in Stroud
Early sleep challenges can feel particularly overwhelming, especially when parents are already navigating feeding, recovery and the emotional demands of caring for a new baby. I support families by helping them build strong sleep foundations without pressure or unrealistic expectations.
Baby sleep support may include:
• Understanding age-appropriate sleep patterns
• Supporting more settled nights and naps
• Gradually reducing sleep associations where appropriate
• Helping babies feel secure and calm in their sleep space
The focus is always on gentle, responsive support that benefits both baby and parent.
Toddler Sleep Training Support
Toddlers often experience sleep disruptions as their awareness, independence and emotions develop. Families in Stroud frequently reach out when bedtime becomes difficult, night waking increases, or early mornings start to take their toll.
Toddler sleep support may involve:
• Addressing frequent night waking or early rising
• Reducing bedtime struggles
• Supporting transitions such as moving to a bed
• Creating routines that fit around work, childcare and family life
Plans are designed to adapt as your child grows, giving you tools you can continue to use beyond our work together.
Sleep Support for Older Children (Up to Age 10)
Sleep challenges can persist or appear later in childhood, often linked to anxiety, worries, school pressures or changes in routine. Older children may struggle to fall asleep, wake during the night, or feel unsettled at bedtime.
Support for older children often focuses on:
• Building confidence and calm around sleep
• Supporting emotional regulation at bedtime
• Establishing consistent sleep patterns
• Equipping parents with clear, age-appropriate strategies
Parents are supported throughout the process, with guidance designed to have a lasting impact.
Online Sleep Training for Stroud Families
All sleep consultations can be delivered online, making support accessible for families across Stroud, Nailsworth, Stonehouse, Minchinhampton, Dursley and the wider Gloucestershire area. Online support includes video or phone consultations, a personalised sleep plan, and ongoing guidance as you make changes at home.
Many families find online sleep training fits easily around busy schedules while still providing clarity, reassurance and structure.
In-Home Sleep Support (Subject to Availability)
For families who feel they would benefit from more hands-on guidance, in-home sleep support may be available by arrangement. This option allows me to work closely with you in your own environment, supporting you as you implement the first steps of your sleep plan.
In-home support is discussed following an initial consultation and depends on availability and location.

Families choose to work with me because I combine professional training with practical experience. I have worked in early years for many years, I am a fully qualified sleep consultant, and I am also a parent myself.
Families value:
• A calm, supportive and realistic approach
• Personalised guidance rather than generic advice
• Respect for individual parenting styles
• Clear, ongoing support throughout the process
My goal is to help families feel confident managing sleep, not just now, but as their children grow and change.
