I'm Regina, a Midwife, Nurse and Baby & Toddler Sleep Coach, bringing 16 years of combined experience in midwifery and infant sleep support.
My journey into sleep coaching came from my own experience as a mum. Having my babies away from my wider family support network, I quickly realised how challenging those early years could be. Even as a midwife, I found navigating motherhood incredibly tough. I had the knowledge around newborns and babies, but I was also a mum trying to understand my own children, advocate for them and find the right support.
With my first baby, and again with my second, I found myself searching for answers. I knew there was more to their struggles than simply following a generic routine, wake windows, or being told they would grow out of it. Looking back, I don't think I trusted my own instincts enough-I knew my babies, and I knew there was a reason things felt difficult.
Everything changed when I had my third baby. By then, I had gained my accreditation as a Gentle, Responsive Baby & Toddler Sleep Coach through Positively Parenthood Sleep School. I was able to put everything I had learned into practice from the very beginning-supporting her comfort, understanding her needs and laying the foundations for healthy sleep. She became an amazing sleeper and continues to be at two years old.
I have never looked back.
Combining my midwifery background with sleep coaching allows me to support families in a truly holistic way-looking beyond sleep alone and understanding the whole baby.
My approach is gentle, responsive and evidence-based. I use a range of gentle sleep coaching approaches and tailor my support to each individual baby and family. There is no one-size-fits-all method-every baby, parent and situation is different, and my role is to find an approach that feels right for your family.
I believe babies need to feel safe and supported, and that parents should always feel confident responding to their baby's needs. I don't believe in leaving babies to cry alone without support.
Instead, I create personalised sleep plans that respect the individual baby, their comfort and the family as a whole.
I look at the whole picture when supporting sleep because my aim is not just to improve sleep in the short term, but to create changes that last long after our time together ends. My clients leave feeling confident in understanding their baby's needs and knowing how to navigate future sleep changes or little blips along the way, with the tools to get back on track.
I believe there is no such thing as a “bad sleeper”-there is usually a reason.
My role is to help families uncover it, build confidence and find a way forward that feels right for them.
My philosophy
My philosophy is that sleep is not about forcing a baby into a schedule, but understanding what they need to feel safe, comfortable and supported. I combine gentle, responsive sleep coaching with a whole-baby approach, helping families create healthy sleep that lasts while always respecting their individual needs.
