The partnership
This isn't a plan dropped in your inbox with a good luck message.
It's four weeks of me genuinely in your corner adapting, responding, and walking alongside you every step of the way.
I've supported families virtually across the UK and worldwide, and I know that what makes the difference isn't the plan itself.
It's having someone experienced there when the plan needs adjusting, when your baby does something unexpected, and when you just need someone calm to tell you you're doing brilliantly.
That's what this package is.
* A fully personalised sleep plan, built around your baby's temperament, your family's routine, and your values
* Daily WhatsApp support throughout the four weeks, so you're never left wondering or waiting
* Unlimited one-to-one calls to review progress and keep things on track
* Gentle, responsive methods only, no cry-it-out, no rigid scripts
* Real-time guidance from someone genuinely invested in your family's progress
Optional: Monthly follow-on care available at £199/month - cancel any time.
My approach
Not this
Throwing your child into the deep end and shouting 'Go!' leaving them to figure it out alone, without support or safety.
this
Getting in beside them. Using floats. Building their confidence bit by bit until they're ready to try on their own. Sleep is the same.
We give babies the skills, the support, and the sense of safety they need to find their way there, in a way that feels loving and secure for everyone. What works for a family with school runs and a toddler in the mix looks completely different to a household where both parents work from home. I take the time to understand your life properly before we put anything in place.
Is this right for you?
This package works brilliantly for families who want real partnership.
* Families who want hands-on, personal support without needing me in the room
* Parents who've tried generic advice and found it doesn't fit their baby
* Families juggling work, other children, and real-life complexity
* Anyone who wants to feel genuinely supported, not just sent a document and left to it
A note from Melanie
"When I take on a family virtually, I am just as present as if I were in the room. You'll hear from me every day. I read every update properly. I adjust the plan when your baby needs it. This is genuine partnership, not a service you receive once and figure out alone."

with Melanie.
We truly can't thank Melanie enough for her expertise, patience, and genuine care. She has given us all the gift of better sleep.

Melanie guided us with such care and kindness. She supported our breastfeeding choices and kept us calm through the hardest parts.

Our little girl had never slept through the night. With Melanie's gentle guidance she now settles herself and sleeps soundly.

It means you can message me every day throughout the four weeks and I will respond, properly, not with an auto-reply. If your baby has a hard night, you message me in the morning and I tell you what to adjust. If something isn’t working, we change it. If you’re just struggling and need someone to tell you you’re doing brilliantly, I’m there for that too. I respond within a few hours during the day, and I’ll always let you know if I’m unavailable. My hours are 8am to 10pm
The calls are unlimited throughout the four weeks. In practice, most families use an initial longer call to go through the plan in detail, and then shorter check-in calls as needed, usually two or three over the course of the month. But if you need more, we have them. There’s no cap.
It is completely bespoke. Before I write anything, I want to understand your baby’s temperament, your family’s daily rhythm, your feeding approach, your home setup, and your own values around sleep. The plan I write for a family with a four-month-old and a school-run looks nothing like one for a family with a seven-month-old and two parents working from home. Every plan is built from scratch.
Then we change it. This is why ongoing support matters more than the plan itself. Babies don’t always respond the way we expect, and rigid plans that can’t flex to a real child in a real family rarely work. If something needs adjusting and sometimes things do, I adjust it. That’s what the daily contact is for.
This comes up often. I’d suggest your partner joins our initial call, most scepticism comes from not knowing what the process actually looks like, and once they hear the approach and have a chance to ask questions, most partners come on board. I’ve never been asked to do anything that doesn’t make complete sense when explained properly.
Usually because the plan wasn’t right for that specific baby and family, or because the support stopped at the plan. I start completely fresh, I don’t assume anything, I don’t apply a template, and I stay with you throughout. If something isn’t working we find out why and we change it.
Most families feel confident and self-sufficient by the end of the month. If you’d like continued support, I offer monthly follow-on care at £199 per month, which you can cancel at any time. Some families use it for a month or two as a safety net; others never need it. There’s no pressure either way.
Yes. Virtual support works for any family anywhere in the world. I’ve worked with families across Europe, the Middle East, America and beyond. We’ll agree on a communication rhythm that works across time zones.

call costs you nothing.
We'll start with a conversation. Tell me what's going on, I'll tell you honestly whether this package is the right fit, and if it is, we can get started straight away.

Emily has been a real life saver.
Emily has been a real life saver. My twin boys’ sleep had got really bad, they were waking up to 11 times a night each and not at the same time. By the end of our two weeks working together they were waking 1-2 times and often at the same time. We are now out of survival mode and life is so different, so much nicer!

Emily has equipped us with the tools to adapt Olivia’s sleep plan as she gets older.
Emily was fantastic from the start, it was very much a two way conversation and personalised to our family. Over the course of the two weeks, Olivia’s sleep progressively improved and she is now consistently sleeping through the night. Emily has equipped us with the tools to adapt Olivia’s sleep plan as she gets older.

I cannot thank Emily enough. I would recommend her services to anyone with babies/children with sleep problems. You don’t have to be in that situation.
