5 MONTHS

"Kingston had just gone through his four month regression and then the struggles came piling in. I had a tight grip on things and then they  spiralled out of control. We were co-sleeping/bed-sharing, frequent night waking’s as he hadn’t yet learned to self-settle, he was feeding on demand, cat napping, not napping at all and many other things. My routine was also way too flexible for the both of us and it had started effecting my daily life. When my son was almost 5 months I was at my wits end. I had enough and I decided that I needed some help and fast!

After doing my research looking online at many websites.. sleep whisperers and sleep consultants in Melbourne were charging up to $400 to help with these issues! I couldn’t believe it! I felt that was over the top and decided to reach out, a fellow Mama and sleep consultant Alex from Babee Dreams.

We got chatting and from the first conversation Alex was great to talk to. She was so understanding and patient with me. She knew about the different parenting styles and knew all babies are different. She asked questions to get a better picture of what we were going through and what a day in the life with me and Kingston looked like. The night-time settling was always the hardest, it could take an hour for him to get to sleep. I had succumbed to using a rocking and feeding, really anything to get him to sleep. This was exhausting day in day out!

 

Within two days we had made significant changes to Kingston’s routine and by two weeks all my major problems were sorted. He was in his own room and in his own bed. I could NOT believe it. I hadn’t rocked or fed him to sleep in two weeks and this really took the pressure off my partner and I. It has been the best thing I could have done for our family. Kingston is now able to settle himself and sleeps during the day and through the night! Did I mention I get to sleep too haha?

 

I highly recommend Alex, she is very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, always replied to any questions I had immediately, she was extremely easy going and supportive throughout the whole 2-week program. I now have the confidence and knowledge I need to get through sleep training on my own. And to think this woman also has 6 month old twins and a tween of her own.

 

Thanks Alex for everything. You’re amazing!"
