The Sleep Teacher pod is your (judgment free) mother’s group (with a side of certified experts who actually know what they are talking about) who are here to help answer your burning questions about child and infant sleep with no beating around the bush. We want you to know that you can still be lovingly attached AND sleep well, you don’t have to choose.

In this pod you’ll hear stories from Mum’s who have been exactly where you are now … strictly contact naps, to 45 minute wakes, to constant dummy runs … we’ve seen it all AND after working with over 15,000 families - we’ve been able to work with ALL of these families to get them the good nights sleep they’ve been dreaming of.

We’ll also chat to experts and unpack the latest parenting advice so you’re never feeling alone - even during those middle of the night feeds.

So hit follow, send us a DM with sleep questions and for even MORE tips follow up over on @‌thesleepteacher

Let's get napping mumma.
