8-18 Months

As your baby transitions from Baby to Infant sleep, their daily routines will also change as they go through different stages of development. These factors may affect their quality of sleep and sleeping habits. It is important to implement an effective wind down routine for bedtime, reducing any external stimulation (like switching off the TV) to make their environment calming. This will teach your little one to know that sleep is coming, making it easier for them to settle and sleep well.

What to expect with this age group:

Removing dependency on dummy / Establishing an age appropriate routine and bedtime / Developmental leaps / Cat naps / Helping your baby sleep longer overnight / Early risers / Sleep regressions / Frequent waking overnight / Bedtime battles / Struggling to self settle without assistance / Sleep associations with rocking, feeding, bouncing, etc.

If you seek any further guidance or support please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Testimonials

Charlotte, Baby, 14 months

We are so impressed with what we were able to accomplish in a short period of time with Aprilla’s help and support. Our 14 month old had settled into the habit of feeding to sleep and was unable to self-settle when he woke. We now have a baby who we can put down in his cot awake, say goodnight, and leave the room, and he puts himself to sleep and stays that way! It wasn’t easy but Aprilla’s tailored approach and daily support was what got us through, she was always available to answer questions, and we would HIGHLY recommend her to anyone!

Alison, Baby, 14 months

Aprilla was warm and encouraging as she helped us establish a better sleeping routine. Our 14 month old would only sleep in her pram during the day and this was creeping into our night times too! With Aprilla's assistance, she now self-settles in her cot in the day and over night. We can't thank you enough for helping us get her sleeping back on track!

Alana, Baby, 9 months

We can't thank Aprilla enough... our bub would only cat nap during the day, and would wake up constantly during the night. Aprilla worked with us to help him sleep longer, more regularly, and he can now settle himself back to sleep without an extra feed. Best of all, we're all getting a full nights sleep for the first since he was born. Wish we had done it sooner. Aprilla is amazing, we highly recommend her.

Louise Beard, Lucy, 8 months

Aprilla was so helpful, knowledgeable and supportive. We had a screaming frequent waking non-napping baby and she empowered us to work with our baby. She now sleeps so well and we are all better for it.
