As of today, the sun is officially rising at 4:52am (according to timeanddate.com)! This means that your little one’s room could be gradually getting lighter and lighter from 4:52am, encouraging them to wake earlier and earlier!

🌅 If my little one was up for the day at 5am, here’s exactly what I’d do:

1️⃣ Base naps off your ideal wake up time, not the time they actually wake.

If early starts mean your whole nap schedule (and therefore bedtime!) shifts earlier, you’re reinforcing the early wake.

2️⃣ Treat 5am like 1am.

If you respond differently at 5am, your little one learns it’s morning.

Exposing your little one to light and movement (ie. getting them up!) just tells their body clock the day has started, reinforcing the wake time for future mornings.

3️⃣ Hold off on that early feed.

A 5am milk feed can encourage your little one to wake for it out of habit.

Try having a no feed zone between 4am and your acceptable wake up time, so that your little one isn’t waking for a 5am breakfast out of habit.

4️⃣ Temporarily push bedtime later.

Shifting naps and bedtime later for a couple of weeks can help shift that early morning wake. Once things settle, you can gradually bring bedtime earlier again. Shifting a morning wake up time takes time, don’t expect change within a week.

Early wakes are tough. I know just how exhausting it is when the day starts with the sunrise at 4:52am!

If you’ve tried all of the above and your little one is still waking at 5am, there’s usually another more specific reason that it’s happening, and that’s exactly what I help families to understand.

Let’s be real for a second… white noise is unlikely to take your little one from waking every 2 hours overnight, to sleeping through the night. I talk about how you can do that below.

However, when used in the right way, white noise does have its benefits, so firstly, lets check you’re using it correctly:

1️⃣ Does your white noise stay on all night?

It’s key to avoid white noise that turns off after 20 minutes (or other short time) after your little one has fallen asleep. If they use white noise to fall asleep at bedtime, they’ll need it to get themselves back to sleep if they wake in the night.

2️⃣ Is your white noise positioned correctly?

If using it to block out external sounds, place the white noise between baby and the source of the sound to create a barrier.

Night wakings can be caused by external sounds you may not have considered such as heating coming on, traffic building up outside, dogs barking, or birds tweeting in the early hours!

3️⃣ Is it the right volume?

The recommended limit is 60 decibels (free apps can help you test this), but I’d recommend staying much lower. You can usually achieve that by moving the white noise machine as far away from the cot as possible.

4️⃣ Does your white noise have a constant tone?

Melodies or music create a lovely environment for your bedtime routine, but once your little one goes into their cot for sleep, these should be turned off. They have an up and down tone which can be disruptive to sleep. Use one with a constant tone instead.

😴 If you’ve checked all of the above and your little one is still waking regularly… the white noise is unlikely to be addressing the real reason your little one is waking through the night.

⭐ I help exhausted families understand the exact reasons their little one is waking every 2 hours through the night, and teach them exactly how to change that in a gradual and responsive way, meaning they can stop guessing how to make change, and stop buying gimmicks that don’t address the root cause!⭐

Is your baby waking multiple times through the night?

Are you exhausted, running on empty, and struggling to find the patience and energy to enjoy your baby during the day?

Are you desperate to feel like yourself again, to have your evenings back, and to finally get a decent night’s sleep?

I hear you, and I want you to know that you are not alone.

Hi, I’m Jo, founder of Lullaby Sleep Consulting and in my experience of working with over 300 families, multiple night wakings are one of the most common challenges they face, and also one of the hardest to live with.

The impact of consistently broken nights goes way beyond tiredness. It affects your mood, your patience, your relationship, and your ability to be the parent you so desperately want to be.

But I also know that night wakings CAN be solved.

⭐I’ve recorded a short video explaining exactly how I have helped so many families go from sheer exhaustion from multiple night wakings, to longer stretches of deep, restorative sleep and finally having the energy to enjoy their baby again⭐

It’s completely FREE, and it could be the turning point you’ve been looking for.

Do these 3 things before you do anything else!

A simple tweak could be all your little one needs.

When I work with a new family, I always check the basics first, as any other changes you make will have minimal impact until you have these right!

💡 LIGHT - Is the room as dark as possible? Light signals cortisol (the awake hormone), darkness signals melatonin (the sleepy one!). Keep it as dark as possible.

🌡️ TEMPERATURE - Is the room between 16°C and 20°C? Too hot or cold disrupts sleep. A cool, consistent temperature is optimal.

💥 NOISE - Is something waking your little one up? Heating, traffic, dogs, alarm clocks, siblings? Eliminate noises or use white noise as a sound blocker placed between your little one and the source.

⭐️ Before changing anything else around sleep, nail the basics first ⭐️

If you’ve checked all 3 of these and your little one’s sleep still isn’t improving, that’s where I come in, and I’d love to help!

It’s crucial that any changes you make to your little one’s sleep are practical and sustainable for you. Otherwise they’ll be impossible to stick to and you’ll end up resorting to old habits.

One myth I hear a lot is: “You have to stay home for all naps to get your little one’s sleep right!”

For me, this is both impractical and unsustainable, and definitely not something I teach in my sleep plans!

Most families I work with appreciate flexibility, and that’s exactly what I believe in and make sure is part of all the plans I build.

✨You do not have to stay home all day or have all naps in the cot in order to improve sleep!✨

Depending on your little one’s age, I recommend one nap a day in the cot. This is enough to keep up the practice and familiarity of sleeping in the cot, which then helps your little one feel more comfortable sleeping in the cot at night.

As a rough guide:

💤 3+ naps a day - try to do one nap a day in the cot (first nap of the day is the easiest)

💤 2 naps a day - try to do one nap a day in the cot (or at least one every other day)

💤 1 nap a day - try to have a nap in the cot at least every 2-3 days to keep up the practice

This is a rough guide and will need to be tweaked based on your little one’s temperament and your own lifestyle too.

You feel like you’ve just settled into a 3 nap structure and suddenly it’s all changing again!

If your little one is around 7-9 months old, you’ve likely reached that point where 3 naps is too many to fit in, but 2 naps is not enough, and knowing how to manage it feels like a daily game of nap roulette!

❗But the BIGGEST MISTAKE I see?

Having 2 naps that finish by early-mid afternoon, leaving you with a 4-5 hour stretch until bedtime that your baby simply isn’t capable of staying awake for happily!
This means your baby will be exhausted come early evening which has a big impact on overnight sleep.

It also means your bedtime routine will be rushed as you try to get through it quickly, and baby will likely fall asleep halfway through their final feed meaning they don’t take in enough milk before bed!

⭐ So what can you do instead?

😴 Know that it’s a transition phase meaning some days need 2 naps, some need 3. Don’t rush to have 2 naps every day!

😴 Cap the third nap at 15 minutes before dropping it altogether.

😴 On 2 nap days, make sure the naps are spread evenly, so you don’t end up with a long wake window before bedtime (this is absolutely key to overnight sleep). This will mean stretching wake windows throughout the day, especially the first one, to make sure you’re not done with day sleep by 3pm!

😴 Bring bedtime forward if naps do finish early.

😴 Use a short 10-15 minute bridging nap to help bridge gaps. e.g. if you find yourself with a 4-5 hour wake window, bridge it with a 10-15 minute sleep to ease sleep pressure. This is best used either between nap 1 and 2, or between nap 2 and bedtime.

The 3 to 2 nap transition is a really hard one to get right, and if it’s one you’re currently struggling with, DM me ‘NAPS’ and I’ll help you navigate it.

Sounds almost unbelievable, right?

When I started working with Ellie and her partner they were at their wits end, stuck in a cycle of feeding and rocking to sleep every 2 hours through the night, and only being able to nap their little one in the pram.

It had become unsustainable for them both and they were desperate for change, but didn’t want to leave their little one to cry-it-out.

Making change isn’t always easy. There were tough nights along the way, but with my support, reassurance, and experience to be able to adapt the plan as we went to make sure it worked for both Mum and Dad and for little one, Ellie and her partner absolutely smashed it!

They were both ready and committed to making change, and the results speak for themselves.

By the end of their plan their little one was self settling, sleeping 11+ hour stretches, and had moved into her own room.

Mum and Dad had their evenings back and finally felt rested enough to thoroughly enjoy their days with their little one!

Can AI improve your little one’s sleep? I put it to the test so you don’t have to!

💻 The experiment
I gave AI real sleep logs from a 6 month old waking every 2 hours (with parents’ full consent) plus everything needed for a tailored plan: sleep goals, temperament, family dynamics, feeding patterns, sleep environment.

I updated AI daily with how baby ‘responded’ (this was made up based on my knowledge and experience) and asked it to adjust the plan where needed.
Just like working with me... right?

💻 Here’s what I discovered:
❗ Problem #1: AI used averages, not individual needs
I create plans based on YOUR baby’s individual needs after thoroughly reviewing 3+ days of detailed logs combined with my knowledge and experience. AI used average wake windows and sleep amounts.
Your baby isn’t average. Your plan shouldn’t be either!

❗ Problem #2: AI gave options, not clear guidance
I offer clear advice and accountability. AI suggested multiple options and left parents to decide.
The overwhelm of conflicting advice is exactly what you’re trying to avoid!

❗ Problem #3: AI couldn’t tell when to adapt Vs stay consistent
Through experience, I know when to adapt your plan or when to keep going. AI couldn’t differentiate.
This is where real support can be worth more than the plan itself!

❗ Problem #4: AI’s emotional support was bland
When we work together, I’m part of your journey. I offer real support based on empathy, knowledge and experience. I’m your biggest cheerleader!

💻 The verdict?
AI can’t replace human experience and knowledge, or the ability to truly understand YOUR baby and support YOU.

Real knowledge, experience, empathy and support gets real, long-lasting results.

If you’re ready for change but feel overwhelmed about where to start, I’d love to help you.
