Hello and welcome!

Hi, I’m Lucy - an Advanced Sleep Consultant through the Institute of Sensitive Sleep Consulting. Based in Melbourne, I'm originally from England and have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's degree in Social Work. I’ve spent over 12 years working in childcare alongside families around the world, supporting parents through the ups and downs of early childhood.

My approach to sleep is holistic, gentle, and responsive - I do not use “cry it out” or controlled crying methods; instead, I guide families with a slow, steady, gentle approach, fostering secure attachments and confidence in the parents. I bring together my knowledge and understanding of child development, behaviour, attachment theory, counselling and family wellbeing to listen to and guide parents in a way that feels aligned with their values. I’m passionate about helping families find calm, confident, and sustainable sleep solutions that nurture secure attachments and positive emotional wellbeing. I also like to find some lightness and brightness where possible!

I believe that supporting your little one’s sleep works best as a team effort. When both parents (where possible) are involved, it helps create consistency, shared understanding, and a stronger sense of confidence through the process. I am passionate about supporting all kinds of families - including single parents, blended families, and LGBTQIA+ parents. Together, we’ll find an approach that respects your values and feels right for your family.

Outside of sleep consulting and working as a Social Worker, I enjoy yoga, hiking, gardening, camping, skiing and spending time in nature.
