The Mindful Sleep Coach

Sleep support with positive outcomes

Responsive baby and toddler sleep coach

GEMMA REALLY DID SAVE OUR SANITY. Our 5 month old was waking every 2 hours in the night and we were exhausted. Following a few suggestions from Gemma, he started doing 7 hour stretches at night within just a few days. I cannot thank Gemma enough for her help and would highly recommend her to any parents struggling with their baby’s sleep. Izzy, mum to 5 month old.

Meet Gemma, The Mindful Sleep Coach

I’m Gemma, a responsive baby and toddler sleep coach based in South West London. I am passionate about educating and supporting families to make positive changes to their little ones’ sleep.

My expertise is working with newborns through to 4 year olds. Providing guidance on sleep challenges from short naps, night wakes, early wakes, routines, self settling, reflux to dropping naps and cot to bed transition.

With my parent led approach I will also give you confidence along the way.

A bit about how I work

Every consultation is unique as each baby and child is different. When I work with you I will ask questions back to pregnancy and birth to present day. I will listen, without judgement to get a full understanding of all aspects that could be impacting your little ones’ sleep with the end goal of providing you with a bespoke plan. I take into account the comfort level of your child as well as their personality and temperament, but never neglecting your own needs.

I will always ensure that you are fully comfortable with the changes I suggest and the route that we go down together.

Sleep and Mental Health come hand in hand and I am passionate about releasing any anxieties you may be feeling around your little ones’ sleep. I will support you and pass on my knowledge enabling you to be confident and informed to make positive sleep changes.

Hear From Our Happy Clients

I highly recommend Gemma’s advice and services for anyone looking for positive changes to the sleep pattern of their little ones! With Gemma’s easy to follow and thoughtfully presented plan, we have managed to get Teddy to nap more consistently through the day resulting in a much longer night sleep! We also get to enjoy his wake windows a lot more now we understand how he sleeps! Thank you Gemma, you are a superstar!

Gemma helped us with our little boy’s sleep. She was thorough in her approach and made a series of recommendations tailored to our needs, which thankfully worked wonders! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

Charlotte & Baby, 8 months

Gemma has given me advice and guidance a couple of times, and both times it been amazing and absolutely spot on. When my little one was going through a horrible illness (at about the 18 months) which massively disrupted her sleep, Gemma was able to rule out so many things and then gave us the confidence to persist with sleep coaching to get her back into a routine. It worked a treat. More recently (now 2 years old) my daughter had started to fall into a habit of waking earlier and earlier in the mornings when she never used to, and with Gemma’s advice we were able to implement a new routine very quickly which immediately stopped the early waking and she’s gone back to sleeping until we wake her up! Amazing!

Thank you Gemma for your support in getting my son to sleep through 11 hours straight in a very short time! It has made a huge difference to me having more sleep and feeling confident I know how to respond to any night wakes. This is my second baby but he was a totally different sleeper to my first – I really recommend The Mindful Sleep Coach to anyone who’s ready to get control back and help everyone in the family feel better. Book it!

I contacted Gemma as we were in a bit of a rut and I didn’t know what to do to improve my son’s sleep routine as he was getting up multiple times in the night and not napping for long enough in the day. After contacting Gemma she asked me some simple questions and quickly drew up a routine with helpful tips and tricks on what our day/evening should look like and to put into action before we had a video consultation. In the video consultation we went through in more detail how we were getting on and even more help and guidance with useful sleep practices for settling my son. I couldn’t believe by following these simple steps how much his days naps and evening sleep improved. My partner and I finally got our evening back and we managed to get our 6 month old to only wake once in the night, which was the objective. She is very calm, kind and knowledgeable and I really enjoyed our sessions. I would highly recommend her services.

Morgan & Arya, 6 months

Gemma has offered fantastic support to help me with my 4 month old babies sleeping challenges. Gemma had great knowledge on a number of different areas I was finding difficult (around both naps and night sleeping) and provided really useful advice on different ways I could approach things, making sure I was comfortable with the different suggestions. We noticed improvements from following her suggestions straight away and both myself and my little one are finding ‘sleep’ a lot more achievable. Alongside the great advice Gemma was also so lovely to deal with, thank you so much. 10 times a night to waking just twice. We honestly cannot believe it. After just a few nights of implementing Gemma’s sleep plan Otto learnt the skill of self – settling and as a result now goes to sleep happily and independently at bedtime. No more rocking, squatting and screaming which means we finally have our evenings back. We now go to sleep at night without the dreaded anxiety of what is to come. Two weeks of working with Gemma has quite literally changed our lives. Gemma is so warm and easy to chat to making the process a whole lot easier. We honestly cannot recommend her services enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Lauren, Justin & Otto, 4 months

We reached out to Gemma a few weeks ago as we were really struggling with our little boy’s sleep. He wasn’t napping, was waking regularly throughout the night and we saw 5AM starts (if not earlier) every day.

We had a call with Gemma who was friendly, approachable, non-judgemental and listened to everything we said, in detail. We received Gemma’s plan and got started right away. We were blown away as to how quickly it worked and how much our sleep has improved since. We have no wake ups & if he does wake, we go back to the method & he falls asleep again. We’ve now seen 6.30-7.30 wakes constantly. A vast improvement for us all.

Naps have increased from 40 minutes to 2 hours and he is sleeping beautifully. He is such a happy boy and we are such a relieved family, now able to enjoy bedtime routines properly without feeling anxious or worried about how the night is going to go.

I cannot thank Gemma enough for providing our family with peace and restored nervous systems after navigating a tricky few months. You have honestly, changed our lives.

I would highly recommend Gemma to anyone looking for support with their child’s sleep. THANK YOU GEMMA!
