What this guide is.
Lullabies Essential Newborn Sleep Coaching is a comprehensive clinical guide covering everything you need to set good sleep foundations in the first six months. Written by a DHA-licensed IBCLC, NICU nurse and infant sleep specialist, it takes you through newborn sleep biology, routines, settling approaches, wake windows, and what's developmentally normal — all in a way that's flexible, realistic, and free from judgment. Whether you're rocking, feeding, or cuddling your baby to sleep, this guide meets you where you are.
The newborn sleep guide written by a nurse who's seen it all — and knows that "just sleep train" is never the whole answer.
Lisa Adair, IBCLC.
I'm a registered paediatric NICU nurse of 20+ years, a Board-certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC #L-314181), and a Pediatric Sleep Consultant. I've personally supported over 1,400 Dubai families since opening the practice.
Notes from parents Lisa has helped.
“She helped my baby latch and feed successfully when we'd been struggling. The relief and confidence she gave me in just one visit were priceless.”
“She came to my house and spent three hours making sure we nailed the latch and built my confidence up. I can't thank her enough!”
“After a rocky start and having to exclusively pump, she got my baby back on the breast during a home session. My only regret is not having her sooner!”
The honest answers.

WhatsApp LisaYes — it's a PDF you read on a phone, a tablet or a laptop, and you can download it or print the parts you keep going back to. It runs to 51 pages.
You pay by card, and an email arrives with a sign-in link to your Lullabies account. The guide is waiting there, and it stays there — you can come back to it whenever you like.
No. It's educational support written by an IBCLC and NICU nurse, not a diagnosis or a treatment plan. Where something needs a doctor — your baby's weight, an infection, your own health — the guide says so.
It isn't a subscription: one payment, nothing to cancel, and it's still yours in six months. It's written for you, so rather than passing the file around, send a friend this page.
Single visit in-home breastfeeding support
A guide is the method written down. A visit is the method plus someone who can see your baby, hear the week you have actually had, and change the plan when it isn’t working.
