What age children do you work with?

I support families with babies and young children from newborn right through to age 5. Whatever stage you are at, the plan is built around your child.

What's included in the Moonlight Sleep Support package?

It is £299 and includes a one-hour video consultation, a fully personalised sleep plan created from our consultation and your sleep log, and three weeks of unlimited WhatsApp support while the new routine beds in.

Do you offer a free call?

Yes. We start with a free, no-obligation 15-minute discovery call to talk through your nights and see if we are the right fit, with no pressure at all.

Do I have to let my baby cry it out?

No. I work gently and responsively, at your child's pace. My approach is anxiety-aware and tailored to your child, never a rigid method that ignores the little person you actually have.

Where are you based and do you work online?

I support families entirely by video consultation, so I can work with you wherever you are in the UK.

Are you qualified and insured?

Yes. I hold a Level 3 Certificate in Sleep Consultancy Practitioner (AIM Qualifications), I spent 15 years as a Teaching Assistant and SEN specialist, and I am fully insured through Protectivity.

Reading Your Baby's Tired Signs Before the Meltdown Hits · Rest & Reassured Sleep Consultancy

If you've ever missed the window and ended up with an overtired, inconsolable baby at bedtime, you'll know exactly why sleep cues matter. Catching tiredness early, before it tips into overtiredness, makes the difference between a smooth settle and a battle.

Why This Matters More Than the Clock

Wake windows and schedules are useful guides, but tiredness doesn't always arrive exactly on time. Having spent 15 years as a Teaching Assistant and SEN specialist, I've learned that reading a child's individual signals, rather than relying purely on a timetable, is often the more reliable approach. The same applies to sleep. Your baby is telling you what they need; the skill is in learning to notice it.

Early Tired Signs (The Best Time to Start Winding Down)

Reduced eye contact or looking away more than usual
Becoming quieter or less interested in play
Rubbing eyes or face
A change in vocalisations: quieter, or a specific "tired" sound
Slower, less coordinated movements

Later Signs (You've Likely Missed the Ideal Window)

Crying or fussing that escalates quickly
Arching the back or pushing away
Yawning repeatedly
Clinginess or wanting to be held constantly
Difficulty focusing on anything, including feeding

If you're seeing the later signs regularly, it's usually a sign that the wind-down needs to start a little earlier next time, not that anything's gone wrong.

Building the Habit of Noticing

This isn't about watching the clock anxiously or panicking over every yawn. It's about tuning in over a few days and starting to notice your own baby's particular pattern. Every baby shows tiredness slightly differently, and once you know your baby's specific cues, responding to them becomes second nature rather than something you have to think about.

Why Cues Matter for Emotional Wellbeing, Too

Responding to your baby before they reach full overtiredness isn't just about better naps and bedtimes. It supports how safe and regulated they feel more broadly. Sleep and emotional wellbeing are closely connected, and responding to cues early is one of the simplest ways to support both.

Finding It Hard to Read Your Baby's Cues?

Some babies are more subtle than others, and some days are harder to read than others. That's completely normal, and you don't have to work it out alone. If you'd like some tailored support figuring out your baby's specific patterns, book a free 15-minute discovery call.
