hey!
I'm Charlotte + I'm so glad you're here
I live in Shropshire with my partner Alex and our two children, aged 1 and 5. Above all, I’m a mother - but I’m also a teacher and a Holistic Sleep Coach. Most importantly, I’ve been exactly where you are: wondering if sleep will ever feel sustainable, questioning when the frequent night wakings will end, and wanting to improve sleep but not knowing where to begin.
​
When our eldest was 8 months old, after a period of fairly settled newborn sleep, she began waking almost hourly - a pattern that lasted months. The common advice was to “teach her to sleep,” ditch the dummy, or let her self-soothe - but ignoring her cries didn’t sit right with me. I didn’t expect her to sleep through the night; I just needed a more sustainable pattern for our family. More recently, I’ve been navigating night weaning my 21-month-old, so I know firsthand that even after the first year, sleep challenges can resurface and the strategies need to be realistic, flexible, and responsive.
​
My experience with my daughter sparked my fascination with the biological side of infant sleep, leading me to complete the Holistic Sleep Coaching Programme. The training covered everything from attachment, family-centred care, and sleep biology, to sleep cycles, hygiene, bedtime routines, and sleep strategies, as well as child temperament, development, behaviour, feeding challenges, nutrition, allergies, sensory needs, anxiety, and cultural factors.
​
Since then, I’ve dedicated myself to helping families find the middle ground between letting babies cry it out and simply waiting it out. I provide responsive, respectful sleep support tailored to each family’s goals. I work 1:1 with families, speak at postnatal circles, facilitate in-person consultations, and founded the Shropshire Sleep Socials. I also have an antenatal offering for expectant parents.
​
At the heart of my approach is a simple belief: babies, toddlers, and children are whole humans - our little “sleepy moon babes” - and deserve the same gentle kindness and understanding we’d offer our closest friends.

Charlotte has a way of explaining things that is so clear and understandable. She gave us some amazing practical advice and answered questions that were not even related to what she was seeing us for

On implementing Charlotte’s advice, our nights have drastically improved. We have a maximum of 3-4 wakes in the night. Our daughter’s sleep is much more settled and she is easier to settle during the night.

One month on, and we've gone from 6-9 wakes up a night to 1-2 wakes, and my husband has even put my little one to bed on his own one night. It's been pretty game changing for us.
