Nurturing Sleep Support has been founded by Heather, a fully qualified Holistic Sleep Coach, nanny and maternity nurse, but most importantly, mum to two young children. Based in North Yorkshire, Heather provides holistic sleep support to families locally and worldwide, both online and in person.
Nurturing Sleep Support uses a supportive, listening-ear approach to help families find gentle and responsive ways to work towards their sleep goals in a way that feels right for them, responsive sleep training and baby sleep support for families in Whitby and Saltburn-by-the-Sea.
At Nurturing Sleep Support, as holistic sleep coaches, our aim to empower parents to feel confident in their parenting journey by using a nurturing and responsive approach to sleep optimisation. This approach NEVER involves leaving your child alone to cry, reflecting our commitment to responsive sleep training and truly holistic methods.
We believe that nurturing parents in their journey through parenthood is as important as nurturing children, which is why our family sleep consultant services support emotional well-being alongside sleep.
We work with each family in an individual and bespoke way using a holistic approach that recognises how each child and family are unique. Where necessary, we can work together to come up with the most appropriate plan using an evidence-based approach to work towards realistic sleep goals through personalised online holistic sleep support.
Holistic sleep coaching is an evidence-based approach to improving sleep that looks at the whole person (and family!), not just sleep habits or symptoms, to understand and address the root causes of sleep difficulties.
Rather than focusing solely on generic sleep training, holistic sleep coaching considers each individual family and how multiple interconnected factors influence sleep, which is why choosing a holistic sleep coach or family sleep consultant can offer a more supportive experience.
This involves considering areas such as:
The goal of holistic sleep coaching is to create sustainable, individualised and developmentally appropriate strategies that support the overall well-being of families, not just more hours of sleep - ideal for those looking for online holistic sleep support, baby sleep support, or responsive sleep training.
Sometimes we need more than a one-off consultation to help find ways to ‘optimise’ our child’s sleep; sometimes we need someone there longer, someone to ask questions to as they come up, someone in our corner, someone supportive to bounce thoughts off.
At Nurturing Sleep Support, we feel very passionate about this, offering packages with continuing support past the initial consultation. Based in North Yorkshire but supporting families worldwide, we offer access to extended sleep support and guidance from an experienced holistic sleep coach.'
We cannot make unrealistic guarantees that your child will sleep through the night in ‘x’ amount of time; every child is unique, and they do not work like robots. With some sleep issues, we can begin to see improvements within a few days; others that may require more behavioural changes can take longer. Behaviour change psychology shows that some changes can take 6-8 weeks to become embedded.
What we can promise is that we can offer tailored support and help you look for potential options that may suit your individual family to work towards your sleep goals, using a nurturing family sleep consultant approach and evidence-based responsive sleep training techniques.
