We cannot recommend Nicole enough! Our baby hadn't slept through the night, we were waking up 4-6 times a night at eleven months. After one week with Nicole, our baby has slept through every single night since.

We have used Nicole twice now for our daughter's sleep and both times have seen massive results. Most recently our 6.5 month old has gone from waking up multiple times a night to 0-1 wake ups. Highly recommend!!

Nicole was an absolute godsend for our family and our ten month old son. After only being able to feed to sleep for months and 3-7 night wakings each night, Nicole's program and support got our little one self settling by day two. Nicole was extremely empathetic, knowledgeable and supportive across our entire program. I couldn't recommend her more.

What makes Nicole Nurtures different

Never cry it out

This method is not used at Nicole Nurtures.

You choose the settling style

Option 1 - 'Parent out of the room' settling techniques, yield quick results with some crying. Option 2 - 'Parent in the room' settling techniques, yield longer results with less crying

Medical screening first

Does your baby have any medical problems? Is weight gain going well? Are you committed and ready for change?

Daily personal support

I check the Google Doc 2-3 times a day, feel free to pop any questions in this shared document. Regular phone check-ins every 1-3 days, scheduled in advance
