SCARLETT 10 WEEKS OLD
ISSUES: Fights sleep, has
a dummy that doesn’t
help her sleep. If she
falls asleep, will wake
crying within five minutes.
Experiences wind, reflux,
constipation and is unsettled and unhappy all
the time. Mum feels like she is losing her mind.
KEY SOLUTIONS: Adjustments to awake times
(to be age appropriate), increased tummy
time, changed formula, and educated
about tired signs. When Scarlett was tired we
responded with gentle settling that allowed
her to love going to sleep.
RESULT: “Natalie came into our home and
with her gentle approach, helped us make
some simple changes and she is now
sleeping through her sleep cycles. This has
made life so much easier for the whole family
as she is so easy to get to sleep- anyone can
do it! Thank you!”
Jess and Scarlett. Ellalong. NSW
HARPER 8 MONTHS OLD
ISSUES: Will only sleep if
being held or slept with
by a parent or sucking
on a bottle. If parents
attempt to put her in
her cot she will scream
and fight hysterically. This can go on for
hours. Mum feeling anxious, confused and
worthless. Trying to stay positive for Harper’s
development but it’s very hard.
KEY SOLUTIONS: Age-appropriate daily
routine, increased variety of solids, respected
her tired signs, identified personal sleep
windows, applied gentle settling techniques
in the cot that she responded to quickly.
RESULT: “The Harper we had prior to your
consultation changed in one week and she
is a much calmer, happier baby. Nathan
and I sum up your program in two words and
that is “LIFE CHANGING”. Natalie, you have
saved this household!”
Tiffany, Nathan and Harper. Chisholm. NSW

LEO 1 YEAR OLD
ISSUES: Two short day sleeps, frequent night waking. Has a dummy.
Relying on use of mum and dad’s bed in the day, or the car, to fall
asleep. 8pm bedtime. Solely relying on breastfeeding for settling and
resettling overnight. Minimal solids.
KEY SOLUTIONS: Introduced regular meal times, active play time, one
day sleep and a consistent bedtime of 7pm. Increased the amount
and variety of family foods, water and attention to reducing additives.
Implemented a consistent and responsive sleep strategy.
RESULT: “When Natalie arrived her kind nature just filled the room. No aggressive tactics,
just a few small tweaks here and there. Natalie came Monday and Leo has slept through
every night since that Wednesday! We went from walking zombies to people. We are truly
grateful for Natalie.”
Ree and Leo. Stockrington. NSW
