What I would love to know is all the influencers who used her... did it actually work 🤔
It probably ‘super works’ until they need another ad for something. Suddenly baby is up if they are selling teething things or just chill needs a new advert done. Babies are babies and make no sense, imagine charging someone £500 and giving them advice when it’s not their child and a kid you have never met. It literally boggles my mind, she doesn’t know this person or the child and is giving out information!

I saw her at the zoo once pre-lockdown when she only had the 2 girls. Funnily she’d said she was off socials having a family day but every time we saw her she was glued to her phone. Argued with her husband and completely ignored the girls. Definitely not the mum inspiration she wants to be!

Influencers love to ask people for advice when what they want is a freebie 😂

Thank you- I almost did the same and purchased her courses but I couldn’t bring myself to spend the money. Also my friend had paid a sleep trainer and that didn’t help her at all. I had another friend who paid a sleep trainer and she told me it had worked… then a few weeks later her kid went back to waking up. I don’t know why but it really irritates me that there’s money to be made charging parents to make their baby sleep.
I think there are huge swathes of communities on Instagram that have been built to play and the anxieties and vulnerabilities of new mothers. Absolute charlatans that will have you spend £250 on their unregulated and unqualified nonsense. This one here isn’t content with just ripping the baby sleep community that she’s had to move on to the weaning community so she can keep shilling a buck. Makes me sick.

Who are the people buying a 'starting school' course for £6.99. I'm so confused what else you need to know other than what the school provides you with 🤔
She’s cashing in on any and all insecurities parents may have!!

4 more months to go 🤣 we’re only on 2 teeth so I feel like that will unsettle her each time too. How does baby B magically never get ill or wake in pain? Mine wakes with trapped wind if she eats too many grapes, lentils, teething, rsv, reflux, chest infection 😰😰
Loads of my friends who said their babies slept through or sleep trained them would fail to mention that actually they would have to pop in a few times a night to settle them or that actually they would wake up and cry and be ignored. I feel like the perspective on baby sleep is slowly changing and it’s common for it to be talked about that babies do not sleep well. I just dislike the baby sleep industry because every sleep trainer influencer I looked at had glowing reviews and I thought bullshit where are the ones that didn’t work. I would have more respect for them if they shared the fails and that actually some babies take longer to sleep through.

She really winds me up when she states sleep training doesn't cause damage. How would she know? There is no study or research that I'm aware of that have followed a family/families for years and years to find out if that's true or not. She talks absolute bollocks.

My friends spent a couple of hundred for a sleep consultant because they were losing their minds and it still didn’t work. I just think some babies sleep well and others don’t 🤷🏽‍♀️ It just irritates me how I follow some influencers and then the just chill witch pops up and its all about sleep training being shoved down my throat.

I unfollowed years ago after buying her stupid course. I can't remember how much I paid as it was 3 years ago but I did the course then contacted her to ask a question about how to manage nursery not following nap schedules and was told to buy a new consultation to discuss! I'd just paid for the bloody Couse and she was so rude about it as well. I followed everything in her course exactly and it never worked. My son started sleeping through at 11 months when he was ready and I don't think anything I did would change it. I now have another baby who will be 1 on valentine's Day and not I have i followed and realise there is no pressure to making kids sleep it's actually so much more relaxing. Kids sleep when they are ready

Just thought I would start this thread because some people were talking about her in another thread. I really don’t like her practices.

With you all with the sleep deprivation! Feel like I’m slowly dying inside with my almost 2 year old, who’s separation anxiety is through the roof, so bedtime is really upsetting for her, whatever we try! Wish there was a magic on/off button for kids to go to sleep 😂

I would rather just give my little one a cuddle knowing it will get her down. I read her advice and would try to do the whole put her down whilst awake blah blah but it was just stressing us both out. I just hate when people tell me to sleep train. Can I just complain that I am tired please 🤔🤦🏽‍♀️
Exactly. It goes against every mother’s instinct to want to comfort their baby to sleep. It’s wrong to suggest other wise in my opinion. Leaving them to cry is horrible and I don’t think it should be promoted. Why would you want to send them asleep when they are so distraught. If they want to be held hold them! It’s our job as mothers to look after them. Not shut the door on their crying faces 😔😔😔

Like a mother fucker smug bitch
She’ll just leave the baby to cry OR lie about her babies sleep to flog her totally non evidence based course.
the smugness is just ‘unreal.’
She just repeats information she’s heard a health care professional say to try to sound informed intelligent and legitimate.

I guarantee you that baby B wakes up frequently because that's just what babies do. Even babies that sleep well wake up.

I’m 10 months in ....he refuses sleep!!!! Up every 2 hours at least.... only 7 ish months to go 😂😂😂😂 glad there is light at the end of tunnel 🙈
Omg honestly I used to get so excited about her sleeping for 2 hours in a row- I considered that a long stretch. I tried to do all the crap of put them down sleepy but awake and don’t feed to sleep but it just meant I was awake for longer. In the end i fed to sleep every time she woke up so she would go back down quickly and she grew out of it naturally. It was so hard because my friends baby slept through and I hated her 😂😂😂

I have tried and tried to no avail to get my little one to sleep by shushing and patting it just doesn’t work for her she just wants to be cuddled, the way I view it is if my baby had hurt herself I wouldn’t say I have to teach her not to cry if she wants to cry she can cry they are obviously telling us they aren’t Happy id rather do a cuddle for 30 mins than hours of crying leaving her going back in repeat! Wish they would all just be clearer on their message that this isn’t a miracle cure its some guidance that might work but it might not!
I totally agree. At the end of the day the sleep training business is a money maker and is a business so they won’t show all the people who tried their methods and it didn’t work. I know people who used sleep trainers and it didn’t work- but all their testimonies are all the positive. That is my issue with sleep trainers they don’t share the other side of some babies just don’t sleep well until they’re older.

I bought her course out of desperation. Didn’t work. On the course it tells you when to feed, when to change nappy and when to put baby down for their naps. All the information on the course I already knew from all the free advice from her Instagram and other sleep consultant instagrams. I always get emails for 20% offers, recently Valentine’s Day offer.
On the course it says not to pick baby up, just to sush baby and pat. It’s just like the Ferber method of controlled crying. I don’t know how she gets all these people messaging her saying their baby is sleeping through after one night 🙄 says she doesn’t read dms but constantly screen shotting them
