About Nadia

Parents who work with me are

• Spending hours rocking and nursing baby to sleep for them to 'ping wide awake' soon after. 
• ​Beyond exhausted because their child is waking up all night long.
• Worry their child isn't getting enough rest and is overtired!
• Feel like they've tried everything and nothing has worked.
• Are overwhelmed and confused because there's so much information out there about infants, children and sleep. 
• Have an older child who was a good sleeper but suddenly has developed anxiety and as a consequence sleep has been difficult for some time.  

​
The good news is that is doesn't need to be that way!

Where it all began

I am married to Graham and have two kids, Hannah (10) and Reuben (7) we live in a small village near Dunfermline in Fife, Scotland.

I was having horrendous sleep issues with Reuben and was suffering from PND and felt out of control, unable to parent the way I dreamed of, I couldn't understand why my son WOULDN'T sleep, I spent hours every day pounding the streets with him in a sling or pram to try and give him some rest, he was a miserable baby - turns out he had food allergies, cows milk protein allergy (CMPA) was the main issue for him.

​I read lots of books, which at the time were too complicated in my exhausted mind, eventually I got professional help, this totally changed my life and in such a short time. 

​I am now happily working as a child sleep coach - I pride myself on having studied well over 200 hours specific to sleep and offer a variety of approaches based on a wide range of degree level and accredited training in infant care, my most recent being accredited at Level 6 with OCN London as a Holistic Sleep Coach. My approach takes into account your unique family values and circumstances - which even the best DIY package or book can't. ​

The transformation

I remember the feeling of utter disbelief on the first night of sleep changes I made with my son. 

​We made the suggested changes and he slept from 7:30 pm  to 5:30 am AMAZING for what we had been experiencing. 

​I even took 3-months additional maternity leave so I could spend more time with my son, I felt like I missed out on so much up until that point.  

​Once I returned to work, I was telling everyone who would listen about my sleep discovery and what I had learnt, I would light up telling other parents my tips and was always referring onto the sleep coach who helped me - but she was in the states! 

​The time came when I thought, you know what, I want to professionally help parents, so I decided to train and qualify to do exactly that. ​
