Client Reviews.
“I am so grateful to have had Melissa guide me and my baby through this. I had a lot of troubles with my baby napping routinely and sleeping through the night. Melissa’s approach to baby sleep was so comforting and gentle and her knowledge made me feel confident to try new things. She was so supportive and very responsive through the whole process and made our experience very personal and tailor made to our stage of sleep training. Her guidance, advice and program led to our baby sleeping through the night. I cannot recommend Melissa highly enough.

“I cannot thank Melissa enough she really is the best of the best! My son was waking 3/4 times on average a night to feed and now sleeps through the night and is night weaned. Melissa’s positive attitude and hands on support has been invaluable!... This has truly been a life changing experience for us. I will be reaching out to Melissa in future when we expand our family and I encourage you if you are struggling to reach out too.”
