Little Dreamers Sleep Co - Infant Sleep Advice and Support

11/02/2026

For my clients - working mums of little ones struggling with overnight waking, split nights, tricky co‑sleeping, and the kind of burnout that makes you feel like you’re running on fumes… I’m almost never the first place they go for help.
But I’m always the last.

Follow for responsive sleep advice that actually works ⭐️

Because before they find me, they’ve already tried everything:

• A sleep training plan that made your stomach twist
• Your friend’s “this worked for my baby” routine
• Copilot (yep, even the AI got a go)
• Magnesium
• Asking your GP mate
• Paying for a download
• Paying for a sleep consultant
• Googling at 3am
• Even wondering if melatonin might be the answer

And still… nothing changes.

Not because you’re doing anything wrong.
Not because you’re not trying hard enough.
But because you didn’t have the right person or the right approach for you and your baby.

You’re a capable‑as‑hell woman who gets things done. You can sort everything. Except your baby’s sleep. You were exhausted, desperate, and doing your best.

But here’s where it fell apart…

Your baby felt that stress, became more dysregulated, and the cycle kept feeding itself.

Sleep deprivation → dysregulation → more wake‑ups → more stress → repeat.

And you have no idea how to break it.

Until now.

I’m Katie, a holistic infant sleep coach for working mums who need more rest but don’t want to sleep train.
And I know what you’re thinking (because I used to think it too):
“Surely all that gentle, responsive stuff doesn’t actually work.”

Well… it worked for Jenny.

“Olivia sleeps through the night and I’m getting a full night’s sleep. It’s been absolutely life-changing for us. It’s not just the program - it’s Katie that makes the difference.”

If this feels like the transformation you’re longing for, and you’re ready to finally break free from the sleep‑deprivation‑burnout cycle, follow and let’s rewrite your nights - and your life - together.

Co‑sleeping often begins as a lifeline 🌙 - a way to survive the newborn nights and soak up the closeness you crave with your baby. For many mums, it feels like the most natural, loving choice.

But what happens when that lifeline starts to fray? When the nights that once felt comforting begin to feel heavy, uncomfortable, and lonely?

That’s the moment so many mums reach out to me. Not because they’ve “failed,” but because co‑sleeping has stopped giving them the rest and connection they hoped for.

And the truth is: you’re not alone, and you’re not to blame.

You know all too well what happens when co‑sleeping goes wrong - the aches, the broken sleep, the missing intimacy, the quiet resentment you never thought you’d feel. It’s raw, it’s real, and it’s more common than you think.

💬 I’d love to hear from you:

So many parents don’t realise those middle‑of‑the‑night screams aren’t “bad habits” - they’re calls for connection. Your baby is checking: Are you still there? Will you come if I need you?

And the change you need to make isn’t sleep training. It’s more connection ❤️

⭐️I’m Katie, responsive infant sleep coach for working mums who don’t want to sleep train. Follow for more science-backed no-cry-it-out advice.

When childcare begins, your child’s developing object permanence gets shaken. They know you exist even when they can’t see you… but they’re not always sure you’ll come back. That uncertainty can make cortisol spike when they wake and don’t immediately feel you close.

This is why you suddenly see clinginess, tears at drop‑off, false starts, frequent wakes, and refusing to settle alone. Their nervous system is asking for safety.

✨Here are 3 things you can start today to ease separation anxiety and support sleep:

1. Fill their connection cup before and after childcare.
Meaningful, unrushed time with you helps them regulate after a day apart. Eye contact, cuddles, chatting, play. Leave the dishwasher - this matters way more for sleep.

2. Create a longer, more purposeful bedtime routine.
A rushed bedtime = a wired nervous system.
Aim for around an hour from start to finish:
milk → bath → pyjamas → stories in the sleep sack → cuddles + songs → into the cot. This slow step‑down helps their body shift into sleep mode.

3. Always go to your child when they call out overnight and you know they’re not going to settle without you.
Responsiveness builds trust. Trust builds safety. Safety builds better sleep. When you consistently come, cortisol drops and nights usually calm again within a week.

100% of my clients say these practical tips surprised them with how effective they were.
This is why I built a whole section inside my Sleep Comeback program for working mums on how to protect sleep during childcare transitions.

✨Robin and River’s Sleep Transformation!✨

Robin came into my program, The Sleep Comeback, feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and exhausted by the constant battle with naps and nights. She wanted tools, clarity, and a way to stop feeling like sleep was running the show. From our very first session, something shifted - she felt understood, supported, and finally able to breathe again.

The weekly topic‑based calls gave her practical strategies she could actually use, plus the reassurance that bumps in the road were normal. Hearing other mums share their own experiences lifted the pressure and reminded her she wasn’t failing - just an exhausted mum.

🔥And the change since then has been huge.

Nights feel calmer. Her confidence has grown. She no longer spirals when sleep isn’t perfect. River is more settled, happier, and thriving with a consistent bedtime rhythm that’s strengthened their bond.

⭐️But the biggest transformation?

Moving from fear and second‑guessing to empowerment and calm.

Sleep stopped being the enemy and became something she could work with. That shift changed everything - for her, for River, and for the way she parents.

📆 Doors to my February Sleep Comeback program are now open.

If you’re reading this and thinking I want that, DM me READY and we’ll see together whether the program is the right fit for you.

If you’ve been fed the BS that you need to “stop feeding to sleep”… You need to hear this.

✨I’m Katie - leading infant sleep coach for working mums. Follow for more insights and responsive sleep advice.

And the biggest myth I see?
People think you have to stop feeding your baby to sleep so they magically learn to do it without you… but they never replace that feed with any other form of comfort or reassurance.
That’s where everything unravels.

Unless you’ve got a personalised, layered reassurance plan written for your baby’s unique needs, here’s what I actually recommend from my SOULFUL Sleep Method:

💛 Keep feeding your baby to sleep - AND do these in tandem:

• Get daytime sleep + bedtime timing right so they’ve built enough sleep drive for longer stretches.
• Optimise their sleep space: pitch black, white/pink/brown noise, and absolutely no blue or yellow light.
• Wait 15–20 mins before transferring so they’re in the deepest part of the sleep cycle and less likely to startle awake.
• Add one nap every other day that isn’t fed to sleep - a car or carrier nap works beautifully. It keeps them comfortable with falling asleep in different ways and future‑proofs everything.

This is just a tiny slice of what we cover inside my SOULFUL Sleep Method - created for working mums with babies 6–24 months navigating:

• multiple night wakes
• split nights
• 5am starts
• cat naps
• false starts
• nap transitions
• failing co-sleeping
• starting nursery
… and so much more.
