Why I Created Sleepy Little Cub

Throughout my 13+ years as a Clinical Nurse Midwife, I've had the privilege of supporting babies and families through some of their most important early moments.
​
I've also seen how exhausting and overwhelming infant sleep challenges can become, particularly when parents are surrounded by conflicting advice, rigid routines and the feeling that they're somehow doing something wrong.

That is why I created Sleepy Little Cub

I wanted families to have access to sleep support that brings together genuine clinical understanding, current infant sleep science and gentle, personalised care.
​
Because your baby's sleep is influenced by so much more than a schedule. Development, feeding, temperament, sleep biology and your family's individual circumstances all deserve consideration.
​
My goal is to help families move towards better sleep while giving parents the understanding, confidence and reassurance to navigate their little one's changing sleep needs.
