Meet TMM's Expert Holistic Sleep Coach
Introducing TMM's expert Sleep Coach Emily Whalley, Fox and Moon
Hello, I'm Emily...
Responsive & holistic sleep coach. Champion of normal infant behaviour. Tongue-tie & reflux educator. Advocate for better maternal & post-natal care. And, mother.
I help families all over the world get to the bottom of their child's sleep challenges.
When I entered the child-sleep world, I grew aware of a ‘missing piece’ that stopped parents from getting the support they needed. Yes, you could sleep train.
Or, you could bedshare, contact nap, rock and tap and sing (and be generally responsive). But what if there was something else going on? No amount of sleep training will fix the underlying issues of an unsettled baby, toddler or child.
'HOLISTIC' SLEEP SUPPORT IS NOT AIRY-FAIRY
It's quite the opposite, it's a comprehensive look at your child's health and wellbeing. I look at everything that links to sleep.
Feeding problems, allergies, gut health, diet, body tension and oral function, we analyse the whole picture to understand what needs putting right.
I support parents that need help with everything from early rising, down to very frequent wakes and unsettled behaviour.
I am a champion of normal infant behaviour, advocate for better maternal mental health and a responsive parent who is far from perfect, who still has shouty days that end in needing a large glass of wine.
A BIT ABOUT WHAT I DO...
Responsive & holistic sleep coach. Champion of normal infant behaviour. Tongue-tie & reflux educator. Advocate for better maternal & post-natal care. And, mother.
I help families all over the world get to the bottom of their child's sleep challenges.
I am a champion of normal infant and child sleep behaviour. Expectations around infant sleep are setting parents up to fail. I am passionate about helping you understand what's normal - and when something is amiss with your baby.
Tongue Tie & Reflux Educator. My son's life has been severely impacted by his tongue-tie and reflux. I don't want another child to go through what he's been through, so I'm doing all I can to get tongue-tie and reflux taken seriously - so we can be proactive about it.
Advocate for better maternal and post natal care. Mothers feeling like they've failed at breastfeeding. Parents leaving hospital with PTSD after a traumatic birth. So much like this impacts sleep - and lives, full stop. I want to be part of the conversation that puts it right.
Responsive parent. But far from perfect. It's so hard responding all the time. I have moments where I hide from my kids (that's okay, and I want you to know that). But when they need me, I am there - day or night - and they're not left alone to cry.
Not sleep training. I know you want sleep. As an exhausted parent, you’d sell a kidney for it. And in this quick-fix world, you want to solve your sleep problem, pronto. Again, I get it - you're desperate. But this is what the sleep training industry thrives off. Instead, I give you the resources, education and support you need to work towards normal and healthy infant sleep.
