There’s so much conflicting advice about SLEEP! 😴

My aim is to try to unpack the science to help you find what works from a biological perspective. No rigid sleep schedules, and no clock watching, that can create more stress and anxiety for families.

Learn how sleep actually works, how you can support your little one’s biological sleep regulators and enjoy the days more with your little one. 🥰

Are you struggling to figure out your little one’s sleep rhythm? Feeling exhausted but don’t want to resort to sleep training? 😴

Come and ‘unlearn’ some of the myths about sleep and understand how sleep is BIOLOGICAL and the science (I promise it’s easy to understand without the jargon). ⭐️

I am to have you walking away understanding why we can’t teach sleep, how biological sleep regulators work and how you can support your little one’s sleep better. This workshop supports secure attachment, following your parenting instincts and is evidence based / sciences backed. 💗

I am a psychologist, NDC practitioner and a mother. I have lived through sleep challenges myself with my little one and now I aim to empower and teach more families about biological sleep to take the stress out of bedtime. 😴

Tickets are $80 per family for this 2.5 hour workshop including Q&A. See the 🔗 in my bio for details or to book.

This time of year can feel very full for many of us. Sometimes we can get lost in our to do lists, our thoughts, work and family life. Taking a moment to be present, ground yourself and take notice of how you are feeling can be helpful. 💗

Does your baby wake regularly over night? 💤
This can be so challenging, exhausting, and make many families feel like it will ‘never end’.

Help is available! You are also not alone. I often hear from parents who are having challenges with their little ones night waking. Although night waking is normal right into toddlerhood. Excessive night waking is not normal and can be a sign that your little one’s biological sleep regulators may need a reset.

Biological sleep regulators:
- body clock
- sleep pressure

If you want to talk through your specific situation, work on a plan for your little ones re-set that will work for the whole family, and get everyone back to sleep as quickly as possible. Please reach out to book a Telehealth consult today. 💗

** please note this sleep support is with a registered psychologist trained in the NDC or possums sleep program. This is a biological and science backed approach to sleep that does NOT involve any sleep training methods.

Biological Sleep Education that is NOT sleep training 💤

This is aimed at parents or carers of babies under 12 months old or families currently pregnant.

This workshop aims to teach you about how sleep works and why we can’t ‘teach’ sleep 😴

This is an evidence based and science based approach. Dianne is an NDC practitioner ( Neuroprotective Developmental Care) and psychologist who is compassionate and understands how challenging it is navigating the conflicting advice parents receive.

Resources and handouts provided.

Do you have a little one and want to get some support around sleep? Don’t want to sleep train? Well you don’t have to! 💗

I have been trained in the NDC also known as the Possums Sleep Program. I offer a biological lens when working with families. There’s no ridged routines or prescribed lists. Instead it’s about leaning more about how sleep works in order to optimise your babies biological sleep regulators.

If this sounds like something you would like please reach out to book a 1:1 sleep consult via Telehealth. 📞

Are you in the thick of it with a newborn struggling with sleep ? It can feel like it will never end!

Although you can’t teach a baby to sleep (no matter what anyone says)… there are some sleep suggestions that can help keep your babies biological sleep regulators healthy.

- sensory nourishment to support and build sleep pressure
- regular morning wake times (same time each day) to help with circadian clock
- day naps in the noise and daylight amongst the regular day to support circadian clock

But if you need further support regarding your little ones sleep please reach out for a 1:1 consultation via Telehealth.

Did you know the differences between emotional regulation and co-regulation?

Often we speak a lot about regulation. But there is a miss understanding that kids can regulate. Often we are not teaching regulation skills explicitly, instead we are focusing on co-regulation with our little ones. Teaching adults how to regulate and co-regulate with their kiddos. At times even as adults we are looking for someone to co-regulate with.

If you are needing support to build healthy regulation skills please reach out for an appointment with a trained therapist. I am currently taking new clients for Telehealth appointments.
