Today a parent wanted to book my biggest support package.
But her baby is only 3 months old and right now, support is about foundations.

So I recommended a shorter, more affordable support option instead.

Because my role isn’t to sell the biggest package.
It’s to give families what they actually need, at the stage they’re in.

Sleep support should feel honest, responsive and evidence-based and sometimes that means saying less is more.

That will always be my approach 🤍

What causes night terrors?
🧬 Often a genetic component
😴 Overtiredness
💭 Stress or anxiety (big transitions or life changes)
🤒 Discomfort (illness, full bladder, or being too hot/cold)
🎢 Too much stimulation or activity before bed

How to support your child during a night terror?
During a night terror, your little one isn’t fully awake and usually won’t respond to comfort or reassurance. The best thing you can do is keep them safe, stay close, and wait for the episode to pass.

✨The next night, try a calm, consistent wind down routine and aim for an earlier bedtime to help prevent overtiredness.

I’m sorry but it’s not about the cot or the bed 🫶
It’s because their sleep environment isn’t consistent, predictable and familiar for them because these three things = a feeling of safety!

Let’s look at why this is, is it because their sleep environment changes? Is it because the build up to bedtime changes or is a little stressful? What are their sleep associations?

In almost all cases you can absolutely support your little one to be content in their own sleep space ✨

Melatonin is the hormone that supports sleep. When it is dark the pineal gland in the brain naturally starts secreting and releasing high levels of it. 🧠

When screens are used before bed, they emit blue light, which suppresses melatonin delaying release from the pineal gland. 📱

Even if your little one seems calm watching a show, their body’s chemistry says stay awake.

👉A 2015 study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) found that exposure to blue light before bed suppressed melatonin by up to 50% and delayed sleep onset by about 1.5 hours in adults.

Later studies on children and teens (Journal of Pediatrics, 2017; Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020) found even stronger effects because their eyes absorb more blue light, meaning babies and toddlers are even more sensitive. 😴

What To Do?

✔️ Turn off screens 60-90 minutes before bed.

✔️ Dim lights in the room while it’s their wind down to support natural melatonin release.

✔️ Incorporate a wind down to help ‘calm’ down; this could consist of a book or song.

✔️ For littles ones that are 2+ years and scared of the dark, use dim red night lights.

Being overtired is often the cause of these false starts we see within an hour of going to sleep for the night and often can be the cause of several wakings that follow overnight😴
Overtired babies often don’t sleep well because of this activated nervous system from high cortisol.
BUT, the good news? 👇
This is actually so simple to correct, it’s about considering the homeostatic sleep drive (sleep pressure) in the day and how we can create a structure in the day that supports restorative night sleep.
