Sleep Services

Lullabies specialises in holistic and age-appropriate, gentle, responsive sleep solutions aimed at developing a healthy sleep-wake cycle for your child. As a certified Dubai Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) who fully recognises the special dynamics of families who co-sleep and breastfeed, Lullabies brings experienced insights into creating customised plans that respect and work with your parenting choices.

We will use approaches that you are comfortable with, that fit your parenting style & ethos as well as constantly evaluating your progress and changing your plan where needed. because babies are not robots. And neither are parents. Play therapy is a large part of my sleep coaching plans for toddlers and older children, ensuring that you maintain the attachment and bond that you have with your child.

If you aren't sure exactly what you need or if you'd like to discuss a custom package, book a free consultation with me to discuss how I can help.

Common questions

Have a question that's not in the list? Get in touch with me or book a free consultation and I'll be happy to tell you more.

How long will sleep coaching take?

Every family is different, and the time frame depends on multiple factors including the age and developmental stage of your child along with previous sleep habits.  
 
On average, it takes around two-three weeks for a child to fully learn new behaviour patterns but some parents will start to see results much sooner than that.

There are many ‘methods’ of sleep coaching, and it’s fair to say that there is no ‘one size fits all’ strategy.

I use a hybrid approach depending on what I think will work best for your family’s needs, which is based off of the information that you give me throughout our time together, as well as my extensive experience with babies and children.

Can I still breastfeed or co-sleep alongside sleep coaching?

As a neonatal and paediatric nurse of almost 20 years and a lactation consultant, I completely understand both the physical and mental health benefits of breastfeeding and co-sleeping, as well as the emotional aspects of the mother-infant dyad within the wider family unit.  
 
Our journey together will actively support breastfeeding if this is how you are feeding your child.  
 
As a health professional, I will also provide you with the latest research and practices on safe sleep, and I have helped many parents sleep coach their little one whilst co-sleeping or in floor beds.

When is the best time to start sleep coaching my child?

From a developmental perspective, babies can be sleep trained from around 5 months. Some babies are ready from around 4.5 months. You can however start laying the foundations of good sleep habits from birth. It is never too early (or too late!) to help your child learn the skill of independent sleep. If you would like to discuss further when to start sleep coaching, please book in a discovery call with me.

Do you use the 'cry it out' method?

No, I do not use the 'cry it out' method. If this is an approach you'd like to use I can signpost you to some resources which you might find useful.
