Hi, I’m Steph ­­– a holistic sleep consultant in Beare Green (Dorking), Surrey. I’m also a mum to three young boys aged five, two and nine months. I started my sleep coaching business after experiencing sleep challenges with my own children. My eldest son was born premature – arriving seven weeks early. We suffered sleepless nights and unsettled days due to colic and reflux. Months later, my son was diagnosed with a Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA). But that wasn’t the end of our sleep struggles.  

Although my son’s sleep improved once we had a diagnosis, we were still having issues such as short naps and multiple night wakings. That’s when I looked into infant sleep in more depth and picked up some tips and tricks. Soon, my son was sleeping well during the day and all through the night. It was at that point that I realised how life-changing sleep coaching could be! However, it wasn’t until last year when I went on maternity leave with my third son that I decided to turn my passion into a career.

I’m now a certified holistic sleep coach, having trained with the incredible Lyndsey Hookway on The Holistic Sleep Coaching Program. It’s the most comprehensive, evidence-based, responsive sleep coach education in the world. What’s more, my level 6 OCN qualification is the highest you can obtain as a sleep consultant, which is the equivalent to a bachelor’s degree. My approach to sleep is gentle and promotes attachment – I do not promote ‘cry it out’ methods of any kind.

I also have a BSc (Hons) Psychology degree. Plus, I’ve worked as a teaching assistant at various schools across Surrey, and as a nursery assistant at a local childcare setting. So I have lots of experience working with babies, toddlers and children and have an excellent knowledge of child development. This, alongside my extensive training as a holistic sleep coach, means I’m well-equipped to help you with your little one’s sleep struggles.
