What parents are saying..
Charmian Hits the Nail on the Head Every Time
Charmian has been our sleep and routine guru since our little girl was 12 weeks old (now 2 years old). Every time we have had an issue Charmian has been able to pin point the cause and advise a solution. Recently a 1 hour session on the phone went from our 2 year old whirlwind taking 40 minutes of screaming to go to bed, to falling asleep happily on her own in her cot. Thank you again Charmian!
Highly Recommend!
Charmian has been instrumental in helping us getting our lives back! Her gentle but no nonsense approach ensured we had results from the very first night of implementing her advice/routine. So much so, my skeptical husband became the routine timekeeper! I cannot stress how much of a difference her advice/routine has made to our lives. We no longer live in fear of our son’s bedtime. I highly recommend the 5 day consultation, she made herself available 24/7 and no question was out of bounds. Since then we have been back for weaning advice and once again she was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I can’t stop recommending her to friends and family, her consultation is definitely one of, if not the most useful services I’ve experienced in motherhood so far.
AN AMAZING BOOK!
I’m a first time mum to a beautiful 5 week old little girl. I recently purchased this book and it has been truly amazing! It has honestly changed everything for us. We’ve gone from ‘reflux’ (I was feeding her constantly the poor girl 🙈) and only sleeping for about 1-2 hours a few times a night to a much happier baby who feeds and sleeps so much better.
It has taught me so much about her digestive system, breastfeeding and her need for stimulation in the waking hours.
It has turned this tired desperate new mum into a much more confident new parent! I’m enjoying motherhood so much more now that we have some routine and quality sleep!
The biggest gift for me is the understanding it’s given me. I can now use this knowledge to help me and my baby, and not just blindly follow a strict plan. I would recommend this book to any new parent.
THANK YOU!! Nell
