Why Work With Me?
I strongly encourage and advocate for an informed, holistic, attachment centred approach to labour, birth and the early weeks and months. When working with families on their older child or teenagers sleep, I also encourage the involvement of the child or young person in formulating their sleep plan so that they can have autonomy over, and responsibility for their sleep, and not just be 'told' what they need to do.
I have worked with children and babies all the way from newborn twins to older teenagers - including as a Nanny, Night Maternity Nurse, Newborn Care Specialist/Maternity Practitioner, and as a Holistic Sleep Coach. I have also cared for children with complex medical or behavioural needs, including overnight, and have extensive training in all aspects of child care and development.
I have two children of my own, a 15yr old son and a daughter, aged 19. Both were induced after complicated pregnancies and with my daughter I was admitted to hospital for 5 weeks prior to her birth. Despite their medically managed births I was grateful to be able to advocate for, and experience smooth, calm deliveries which were overall very positive and we were just very grateful for their safe arrivals! My son suffered with severe Gastroeosophageal Reflux and allergies as a baby and young child, so I have personal as well as professional experience and training in this often difficult to diagnose and manage condition.
I love helping parents-to-be prepare for their new arrival by understanding what to expect during labour and birth and exploring the options they have and choices that could arise, enabling them to approach birth feeling confident, empowered and in control, even if they are thrown a curveball and plans have to change!
I hold an enhanced DBS on the update service as well as full 12hr Paediatric First Aid, ICO registration to hold data securely plus Public Liability and Professional Indemnity insurance.
I am continually looking to further my professional development and complete regular additional training, particularly in the fields of Pregnancy and Birth, Sleep, Feeding and Newborn Care.
