“I want to say a big thank you to you Fran! After only 2 weeks of working with you I now have so much time back in my day to spend with my toddler and also have a bit of me time!  My 6 month old son relied heavily on his dummy and me for support during his naps. This caused a lot of unsettled sleep and was very time consuming for me. Fran suggested removing the dummy completely, adjusting his sleep routine and gave me some helpful settling methods. Theo can now go to sleep on his own and will stay asleep for at least 2 hours! With no dummy in sight! The support from Fran was amazing, she is very knowledgeable and I loved the daily communication (sometimes hourly from me). I highly recommend working with Fran for any sleep issues you’re having!!”

“Fran was so good at communicating and putting our nerves at ease after a pretty traumatic first attempt at sleep training! She adapted a plan for our little one that was comfortable for us and we saw changes so quickly! Our little one adapted so well with no cry it out. He was 18 months when we tried with Fran. Fran was very knowledgeable and put things in easy to understand ways, she was amazing to work with and I would highly recommend any more of my friends to head her way when dealing with sleep for your family! She has a warm heart and is just a joy to deal with”

“Fran at Hello Sleep has been an incredible help for our family. Before we worked with Fran our 8 month old was a very inconsistent sleeper, day naps were always all over the place with lots of wakes and short naps, and night times we were dealing with multiple wake ups through the night. By the third night using Hello Sleep support our son slept through the night and after the two weeks support we have a much happier baby, more consistent days which we are able to plan around and baby who sleeps through the night giving us that much needed rest. Fran was amazing to work with, incredibly helpful and supportive and we would highly recommend her to anyone who needs some sleep support in their families!”

“Prior to working with Fran, my 2.4 year- old Chloe was waking multiple times throughout the night and taking HOURS to settle! I resorted to sleeping on a mattress beside the cot in attempt to try get some sleep! On top of this Chloe also started climbing out of the cot. I am often on my own as my husband is away for work for multiple nights at a time as well as being in my third trimester of pregnancy!  Needless to say I needed help! Since working with Fran, Chloe is now sleeping through the night with NO support needed from me! Fran also supported me in the transition from cot to bed which I was super nervous about with Chloe being on the younger end, however, to my surprise she NAILED it! Going forward I have solid plan in place so I know how to respond and support Chloe's needs when needed as she suffers Separation Anxiety when dad is away. I can't thank you enough!!”

“When I first contacted Fran I was in the trenches of sleep deprivation. My 9 month old was waking frequently overnight, taking short naps, and relying on me and her dummy to resettle. I was beyond exhausted.  Fran supported us through some big changes for Ava’s sleep. We were able to ditch the dummy and she now easily settles herself to sleep. She has gone from waking up to 10 times a night to only once. She is also consistently napping for 2 hours at midday now without needing me to resettle her. These changes over just 2 weeks support with Fran have been incredible and I now have a much happier baby as well as more time and energy to spend filling my cup as well. Fran is knowledgeable and supportive and I highly recommend her to anyone that is struggling with their little ones sleep. “

“Your support so far has been amazing!! So much more support than I thought. So so amazing. I still feel that I’m not quite letting Heston self settle on his own because of this I’m having to go and resettle him and same at night but maybe that’s normal? I’m really loving the shift in his sleep though it’s amazing what just adjusting a couple things can do for his sleep! So thank you so so much Fran it’s been amazing so far!”

“Thank you so much for helping myself and Zoe with her sleep. The last two weeks I have learnt a wealth of information from you and seeing the positive effects of it as we implemented it on Zoe. She has been such a champion and taken to the new sleep schedule so well and now sleeps through the night most nights! During the week we use the med-med schedule at daycare but on the weekends we use the short-long schedule and Zoe is doing great at that. She is really happy and now not getting overtired. You have helped us find her sweet spot for sleep and we are very grateful as mum and dad feel very rested too! Thank you so much for all your support over the last two weeks and I know you will do an amazing job helping so many other families.”

“Thank you so much for you assistance the past few weeks. We came to you as recommended by my sister because we were having inconsistent days and SUPER early wakes, you gave us routine and consistency. We haven’t woken before six in the morning in three weeks and our days are so much easier, we are having good naps and no more cat napping, and overall we have a much happier monkey! You were so supportive all the way and quick to assist when we had questions. “I never really understood wake times / sleep schedules and with your help I have a better understanding, it’s so nice getting consistent sleep from him at lunch and I actually find I have more flexibility as I have my mornings to do things. Mason is 100% having longer naps and is overall a lot happier especially in the afternoon ! I also haven’t had to get up at 5am in a week so boy am I not complaining. Overall an amazing experience with you and a positive outcome.”

“Fran gave me advice on how to tweak our routine to help with our 15 month olds sleep. Her advice meant he started sleeping through the night! Such a game changer and a change I wouldn’t have though of myself. Thanks so much Fran”

“Working with Fran has given me so much more confidence as we now have a predictable routine. Our baby now sleeps 2.5 hours every lunchtime (for over a month now). Our family is better rested and much calmer. Being able to check in every day (all day, sorry!) was really beneficial for me too. Thanks Fran!!”

“Where do I begin? I can (almost) remember about a month ago, lying in my spare bed at 2am with my 5 month old, on the verge of tears, wondering where my sleepy boy had gone. The 4 month sleep regression had got us good! We both hadnt slept more than 2 hours at a time overnight in nearly two weeks, and his day naps were no more than 30mins. Desperate, I messaged Fran on Instagram and by 8am the next morning she had replied and was ready to help. Jump forward to present day, August has been sleeping in his cot from 6pm-7am (with one or two night feeds) for over three weeks, has three regular naps a day that he settles himself for (and one that is over 2 hours long). He wakes up happy and goes down without a fuss. I genuinely feel like I have my boy back. During the process, Fran was responsive, flexible and kind. She knows that sleep is important, but so is getting out, and therefore helped me through the days where naps couldn’t be “perfect”. She is knowledgeable and genuine and makes you feel like she is a friend in your pocket at each nap time. Highly recommend for to anyone “in the trenches” and is sick of “riding it out”… there is just no need!”

“Working with Fran has been amazing! Right from the first discussions around our little one's sleep, she has been professional and knowledgeable while also staying personable and realistic. She has understood our goals for both our little one as well as the rest of our family and has supported us in the best possible way. Thanks to her help, we have been able to achieve the best of both worlds when it comes to having a routine while also staying flexible for a busy life with two young children. After two weeks of her help our lives have quite literally changed - my little one is sleeping so much better and is a much happier baby and I now get consistent time to myself which is so important to feel human again! Can't recommend Fran enough”
