Supporting your baby’s unique sleep, so you can enjoy your maternity leave, thrive in work and enjoy family life well rested.
Sleep is not a luxury in life....
It is a basic need. Your child's sleep is unique and when they sleep well so do you. I provide tailored, gradual and responsive sleep training from when your baby turns 4 months old. I support your baby's unique sleep needs, so you can enjoy maternity leave, thrive back at work and enjoy family life well rested together.
Hi I'm Laura. I am a baby sleep consultant in Derbyshire and I spent my maternity leave as a first time mum in lockdown, struggling with broken sleep, feeling anxious not knowing how long our son would sleep for before waking up repeatedly. I would have no time in the evenings to just sit down and relax with my partner at and I wasn't getting a break in the day due to my son only contact napping.
Most nights he would wake every-single-hour. The world was living through a global pandemic and we just wanted our family to be as healthy as possible and knew that meant we all needed our sleep! Gradual, responsive sleep training saved our nights, helped us all get the sleep we needed and kept us healthy and thriving. I moved feeds earlier before his bedtime, gradually moved from feeding him to sleep each time he woke to offering other forms of comfort and observed when he was tired for naps rather than using generic wake windows on different apps. His silent reflux got better and he started to sleep for much longer periods of time.
Maternity leave isn't a holiday.... as a new mum you are providing care for your new baby, adapting to life as a new family and (just as importantly) recovering from labour.
Throw in sleep deprivation and it can feel so lonely.
I want to take to take the pressure off parents. No more worrying that you child will never sleep well, knowing you can confidently help them to sleep for longer and relaxing when they are asleep because YOU matter too.
We all wake in the night. Sometimes the wake up is so brief we don't even remember it.
As parents it isn't our job to stop our child from waking, they can easily wake at the end of a sleep cycle, but what we can do is support them to learn how to easily Fall asleep again should they wake up too soon. Reducing the need to Put them to sleep each time.
I specialise in supporting babies aged 4-14 months to Fall asleep (self settle) rather than have to be Put to sleep, using a gradual and responsive approach over 2-3 weeks.
I design a sleep routine tailored to YOUR family, created to fit YOUR baby's individual sleep needs, rather than a generic "one size fits all" style of support.
When I help families my support is personalised around real information on their baby's sleep, based on my comprehensive online sleep questionnaire to understand your family's current situation and challenges, and the data you provide via an easy to use sleep app to log your baby's sleep and feeding schedule.
This combined information then allows me best help you and your unique baby.
Optimal sleep is created through:
Looking at how much sleep your child needs over 24 hours, how long they are capable of being awake for and what is going on biologically for their age.
Creating small routines to help your baby know when it is coming up to the time they will be sleeping, maintaining small habits and holding boundaries. Consistency helps everyone to feel trust in situations and our children look to us to know what will happen next and feel more confident and comforted.
When your child is given the chance to be autonomous with you by their side they build on new skills.
When your baby can Fall asleep rather you Putting them to sleep should they wake up between sleep cycles (which begin around 4 months also known as the 4 month regression )they can go back to sleep without depending on sleep associations such as; rocking, feeding, contact naps, co-sleeping or using a dummy.
You can provide their nutritional needs AND teach them to self settle to sleep after the feed through the night. You do not have to stop breastfeeding.
Meaning you can rest easy (literally!) knowing you are meeting your child's needs.

"Loved the improvements!"
"My only regret is that we didn't come to Laura sooner. We went from having no evening as my daughter wouldn't settle until 10pm, then wake again at 2 and take hours to settle again, to our daughter being asleep by 7.30 and sleeping through the night. We also had problems with naps, my daughter only sleeping for 40 minutes at a time and taking up to an hour to get to sleep. She now has a 2 hour nap.
"Our life changed for the better."
"Amazing! So helpful I used her services for both of my children. 1st slept through from 6 months and 2nd slept through from 8 months😄"
"Highly recommend Laura"
"I couldn't recommend Laura at Press Snooze enough.
After messaging Laura at 3am out of desperation, right from Laura's first reply I instantly felt I was in good hands. Laura's patience, empathy and understanding instantly started to put me at ease and feel confident that things WILL get better.
Thank you Laura x"
"Would 100% recommend Laura to anyone who is struggling. She has genuinely changed our lives."
We reached out to Laura after 15 months of no sleep. We were at breaking point. Our little one was waking up 8,9,10 times a night and was in our bed with us, the only way of resettling was to breastfeed back to sleep, but then an hour later we’d be up again. we were running on empty.
We had a very thorough phone call with Laura to assess our sleep routine and then she went away and put a plan together for us. Once we started the plan, we noticed an improvement with bedtime very quickly. And the night wakes pretty much halved. We definitely had a rocky week, which Laura had mentioned we probably would have. But once we pushed through that, we started getting bigger chunks of sleep.
After about 8 days we were getting some 5hours chunks of sleep with maybe only 2 or 3 wakes, which seemed like a dream scenario a few months back! Then 6hrs, then 7,8,9 and now we have just had 6 nights in a row of 10-11 hour sleeps with no wakes in little one’s own room in the cot! We never thought we’d get there. Laura is absolutely brilliant at what she does, she was so supportive with texts/voice notes checking up on us very regularly and always replied so quickly to any of our messages. I have to say, I was a bit sceptical at first and during those first few nights, both my partner and I felt that maybe our little one was just destined not to sleep. But I can safely say this was the best thing we have done for our family. Lack of sleep is so hard and you can’t put a price on it! Would 100% recommend Laura to anyone who is struggling. She has genuinely changed our lives.
