I adore  holding a sleeping baby - I love offering them warmth, love and stillness. Knowing that your baby is safe and secure while you catch up on much needed sleep is invaluable.

I hold your baby while they are sleeping if this is what you need me to do. I encourage you to be with your baby as much as possible and support you to find a way to do this while I busy myself with the endless tasks that need doing in your home. However I do understand that we all need a break at times so knowing this is an option can be such a relief to you and your tired baby.

I am calm and upbeat, I have a truck loads of support to offer you and tried and tested methods of creating a peaceful home. I understand the struggles that many of us experience with very young children and value supporting families to find their own unique balance between chaos , laughter, love, joy and routine. We all do it differently and I am more than happy to slot in with your needs.
