0-16 Weeks

With newborns, we look into making gentle changes and using age-appropriate settling techniques rather than sleep training baby methods or newborn sleep training. This will help both improve and develop lifelong healthy sleep habits by responding to your baby’s needs, helping them sleep better. Look out for signs of tiredness such as rubbing eyes, yawning, fussiness, jerky movements, and crying.

Ensuring your baby isn’t overtired, as this can result in more difficulty when trying to get them to settle. Putting them down for sleep earlier will make it easier for you to settle them. Be sure to place them in a safe sleep environment during the day and night when they are calm and drowsy; this will encourage healthy sleep.

What to expect with this age group:

Safe sleeping / Tired signs / Baby sleep cycles / Naps / Awake times / Sleep environment / Sleep essentials / Early rising / Night and day confusion

Alison, Baby, 12 weeks

Our son was waking every 1.5hrs overnight and feeding for 40 mins each time, as he had a very strong fed to sleep association. Aprilla gave us the education, support and kindness to break this habit and help him to sleep without our assistance. Now he sleeps 11hrs overnight and is a happier more content baby. Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou Aprilla.

Katherine, Baby, 11 weeks

All you ever want for your little one is for them to be happy and healthy. Our little man needed help to put on weight and was waking every 90 minutes all through the night. It was a difficult time not knowing how to give him what he needed to thrive – spending many long nights in desperation trying to settle our tired and unsettled boy. After 3 weeks of Aprilla’s constant support and reinforcement our little man is now sleeping soundly giving his body time to focus on growing - which he his! We cannot speak highly enough of Aprilla! Her support was non stop and incredible. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Katherine
