Working with Nicole was one of the best decisions we've ever made as a family. She is warm, knowledgeable and provides incredibly accessible practical skills and techniques to improve your little one's sleep. Our lives have honestly been drastically changed for the better thanks to the gorgeous Nicole. Thank you!
Nicole was an incredible support with assisting our 8 month old to sleep in his own bed and through the night. From helpful tips on feeding to almost daily check ins, Nicole is knowledgeable, kind, caring and considerate with her suggestions. Will be recommending Nicole to everyone!
I cannot recommend Nicole highly enough. I called her in a time of sleep deprivation and total exhaustion and she was so caring and supportive from the minute we connected. Having her come to our house made all the difference, it really made us feel like she was taking a personal approach rather than just rolling out the same program for everyone. Over the 2 weeks of support we had through her program, the tools and guidance she provided were amazing. We felt so supported, no question was silly, no conversation was too long. She was just there, every step of the way. Our bub became such a great sleeper after that and we couldnt be more grateful to Nicole for supporting us through such a challenging time.
Nicole was very knowledgeable, calm and nurturing throughout our sleep training experience. She guided us through a tough sleep regression with our nearly 18 month which started with her waking 2-4 times throughout the night and resisting naps. Now my little one is sleeping a 2 hour nap in the middle of the day, 12 hours overnight and is nearly fully off milk! Could not be happier with our experience.
Nicole was extremely nurturing as her name suggests. She was very informative and supportive with sleep information while also helping to manage expectations. She provided many tweaks and suggestions while also considering my thoughts and instincts too. She's given me the confidence to make changes as needed on my own now and I feel much better about the constant sleep need changes ahead. Thank you Nicole!
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 has been so supportive throughout the whole process with daily check ins and she made sure I felt comfortable and supported at every point. Working with Nicole has changed my families way of sleeping and I finally have time back to myself and some time back with my partner. Before seeing Nicole we bed shared, getting bub to sleep was a a hard and long process and I would dread night times. Now I have my own bed back, he can put himself to sleep and our night times are just getting better and better! Will definitely be seeing Nicole for the next baby 😊
Nicole has been such an incredible support to my family. We were supported by Nicole for a week and in this short time, both my baby and I learnt such valuable lessons. My beautiful baby now self settles and we both have so much more confidence around sleep. Nicole has been so kind, attentive and knowledgeable. I never felt judged nor unheard. Everything I felt was validated and when we hit unexpected hiccups during our sleep consultation journey, Nicole supported us to pivot and find resolutions that suited our family. I am so grateful to have had Nicole's support and I am so relieved that I didn't wait any longer to reach out for help. Highly recommended!
Nicole's advice is second to none, helped us establish an amazing sleep routine that got our 6 month old baby to sleep consistently with minimal fuss. From rocking our baby to sleep for every nap and multiple times throughout the night to independently falling asleep in his cot in just 4 days. Her constant check ins and gentle nature put us at ease. We can't thank her enough for what she has done for our family.
Ever since the 4 month regression hit, our (now 8 month old) baby struggled with sleep. She was a catnapper during the day, and had multiple false starts and wakeups during the night. Bedtime became extremely anxiety inducing, knowing that my partner and I would be spending hours on end holding a baby who Just. Wouldn't. Sleep. We've just finished up the in home consultation and 2 week program with Nicole and wish we had reached out for help months ago! Nicole has been so kind, patient and understanding with us throughout this journey. She spent so much time reviewing and providing real time feedback through our sleep log and answering all of our questions on our almost daily phone calls. We felt so supported- it honestly felt like talking to and getting lots of advice from your smart mum friend! The in-home consultation on the first night was one of the highlights of the program. I was incredibly nervous about sleep training, but Nicole was so calm throughout the process which in turn made the first night easy to navigate. Because of Nicole's unwavering support, our baby is now thriving. After 2 weeks, she is putting herself to bed in her cot for all sleeps (and going down without crying within 10 minutes) and sleeping through the night with only one wakeup for a feed! There are no more false starts and we've also been able to remove the dummy from her nighttime routine! Some unexpected benefits from the program include no longer snack breastfeeding and a dramatic increase in solid intake- and a much happier baby! Nicole has taught us that you can be firm in your training approach but also responsive to your baby's needs. We are so grateful to Nicole for her support over the last 2 weeks and would highly recommend her to anyone who is having difficulties with their baby's sleep! ❤️
My baby only contact-napped for five and a half months and would fight every sleep, but since working with Nicole our days are so much more predictable. He now sleeps in his own cot without a dummy, has longer stretches instead of catnaps, and is a much happier baby for it. Nicole was so supportive and the daily check-ins and sleep log were invaluable, as they allowed us to troubleshoot any problems with naps and get immediate feedback to apply for the next one. The home visit was also incredibly worthwhile. What I really appreciated was that she was never pushy and made sure I felt comfortable with every step we took. I honestly don't think we would have had this success without her guidance. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Nicole again for our next baby! 😊
Absolutely amazing! We didn't think it would happen - but - but now we can put our son in cot, close the door and walk away and he goes to sleep. We cannot thank Nicole enough for assisting us to get to this point. Sleep is no longer a stressful thing fos us as a family and we can now all enjoy our energy charged lives together.
Nicole was so responsive, helpful and kind, and worked miracles with our 8-month-old's sleep routine. Under her guidance and with her ongoing support, we went from multiple night wake ups and short day naps, to naps of up to two hours and overnight stretches as long as eleven hours! Her holistic approach has greatly improved our little one's sleep (and ours) and we are so glad we reached out. Highly recommended - thank you, Nicole 😊😴
Nicole was very receptive to our needs. The strategy proposed to help our daughter sleep was extremely successful and supportive. Her techniques were encouraging and complimented our parenting. We would highly recommended Nicole to any family in need of help, rest and sleep
My five months old son was used to feed to sleep method. He couldn't connect sleep cycles and had multiple wakes overnight. I was exhausted and couldn't do it anymore so I connected with Nicole for help. This is the second time I am engaging Nicole for sleep support. She was fantastic in supporting me with my eldest and I had no hesitation to engage her again to help me out. I received a tailored sleep training guide with two options. I also received guidance on feeds and solids as it plays a very important role in sleep. Every time I was reluctant to do something, Nicole encouraged me to do with good explanation which allowed me to understand insights of baby sleep training and be confident to carry out the method. My son within 2 days learnt how to self settle and started stretching his night sleep without any feeds. It was a pleasure working with Nicole as she is always willing to support her clients in a customized way to suit the family needs. I would highly recommend Nicole Nurtures to any parents struggling with their little ones sleep. Nicole's caring support will never disappoint you in achieving your little one's sleep goals!
We reached out to Nicole hoping for some support to help our 4-year old daughter sleep through the night. Bed time had become an epic battle, and she was also waking throughout the night. We were all very tired... Nicole created a plan for us and provided phone support over a 2-week period. Within a couple of nights our daughter was getting to sleep more quickly and easily and not getting up overnight. She is now a much happier kid, has more energy and even a bigger appetite. We wish we had called Nicole sooner!
Nicole is amazing! I co-slept with both my children so approaching a sleep consultant was a very hard decision for me, but Nicole has been wonderful! Her knowledge, understanding, and empathy made an initially difficult journey so much smoother. She is so easy to talk to, always has words of encouragement, and I always felt heard when I went to her for advice. Our chats were completely free of judgement and it is so obvious that Nicole genuinely cares about her clients and the job she does. My daughter and I did the two week sleep program and with Nicole's guidance we now have a great routine where we both get to sleep through the night. My 11 month old happily goes to sleep in her cot from 7 to 7! There is no way I could have achieved this without Nicole's support. Thank you so much! ☺️
We were struggling with a major sleep regression with our 7-month-old. she suddenly refused her cot, fought naps, and woke multiple times overnight. After two months of trying everything ourselves, we were exhausted. Nicole guided us gently through her one-week program and gave us the confidence and strategies. Her approach was so supportive and respectful of our baby's emotional needs. Within just three days, we saw huge improvements, our little one now self-settles, sleeps through the night, takes long naps, and is a much happier, more content baby. We've also witnessed incredible growth in her independence and sense of security, something we never would have known she was capable of without Nicole's guidance. Our whole family is sleeping better, and we couldn't be more grateful!
Nicole is Amazing!! The baby sleep whisperer! Within a week she completely changed my 5 month old sons' catnapping and waking every hour to feed during the night to regular days naps, self settling and sleeping overnight with minimal feeds!! My son was a great sleeper up until 4 months old, then his sleeping changed. He started to catnap for only 30mins during the day, needed to feed to sleep and was waking up every hour to feed due to that sleep association. I was aware of the wake windows but Nicole helped me tweak them here and there, setting me up with a specific schedule which made his naps change overnight! With Nicoles guidance my son started sleeping for 2 hours for his afternoon nap, self soothing to sleep and sleeping through the night with only 1-2 feeds! I can now put my son down for a nap, say goodnight and he will quietly fall asleep by himself in 5 minutes! Literally life changing for our whole family! In only a week Nicole empowered me with the knowledge to be able to assess my sons sleep cues and adjust his naps in case they fall apart during the day. I feel confident these days when it comes to my sons sleep thanks to Nicole and have been recommending her to all of my friends! :)
We highly recommend Nicole! Our four year-old was waking multiple times a night, upset and confused and we had resorted to co-sleeping indefinitely. Within a week she had learned to settle herself and was doing 8 hour blocks staying in her own bed til the morning. Nicole's various tactics really helped our daughter own the process and find a sense of pride in her accomplishment. As a certified sleep consultant and neonatal nurse with three kids of her own she brings a wealth or first hand knowledge to the sleep equation. We've found Nicole to be super attentive, a great listener, not dogmatic at all, and just really switched on in general. She gives great nuanced advice that I think we wouldn't have come up on our own and was really the external voice of reason, wisdom and care that needed.
We did 1 hour session with Nicole as we started to have issues with our toddler's sleep. We have implemented all the changes that Nicole advised and he has improved so much! No more night wake ups, no more nap refusals. Absolutely recommend. Very grateful for your help Nicole 😊
Nicole's sleep program is absolute magic. She takes considered time to get to know your family and needs and tailors a program that is specifically for you! The goals we made at the beginning of the program felt very out of reach, but by the end of the fortnight my little one (10 months) was sleeping through the night independently and taking every nap in his cot. Her approach is structured, but with a lot of flexibility; so you're not stuck at home all the time. I cannot recommend Nicole enough. Her natural kindness and compassion shines through at every point of contact throughout the program and she celebrates your wins as if they were her own. My son is happier and calmer on a new (and much improved) sleep routine and the rest of the family is also sleeping. Thank you Nicole for saving our sanity!
I enlisted Nicole as my little one's sleep consultant to help with our troublesome 13m. My little one loved a bottle and loved that to support her to sleep. In just 1 night we cut the bottle completely and dramatically reduced my little one's milk intake, in return this increased my little one's solids intake and took us from multiple night wakes to just one 95% of the week long journey we embarked on together. Very grateful I was recommended Nicole and to have had the change for my little one that we got. Thank you Nicole for restoring sleep to our house.
Nicole is and always will be the best decision we made during our new parent life! Going from constant contact naps throughout the day and most of the night as well as frequent night wake with feeding the only solution to settling back to sleep. Now … sleeping in her own room, no more dummy, self settles instantly and sleeping the entire night! We have shed happy tears with the change in just the matter of days and after two weeks a completely different 5 month old! Nicole, Thankyou for your beautiful caring nature, so knowledgeable and understanding. Every person who knows how hard the 5 months before you had been for us has now commented on the change in not only baby girl but us as well! THANKYOU!
We started chatting to Nicole after she was recommended by some friends, who also worked with her, and we have been incredibly happy with her services! We knew our now 5+ month baby had the potential to sleep better, and although all the tools and resources are out there, we just couldn't get the right equation of it all. With her gentle and professional advice we were able to help our little one sleep through the night and have structured and consistent day naps, which is what our bub needed. Before that we were having anywhere between 20 min cat naps, 2 hours of being nap trapped and 3 hourly wake ups at night. Nicole is amazing at what she does, works very closely with you as the parents, respects and values your parenting wishes and has the baby's best interest always at the forefront of her recommendations. We are now all getting better sleep, most importantly our baby is, and we feel very empowered and equipped with our child's routine and sleep.
Nicole is a wizard!! She fixed our 2 year olds sleep 6 months ago and yet again has changed our world for the better with our 8 month old. We used to spend the whole night in her bedroom which almost always ended with bringing her into our bed. As soon as we started with Nicole that changed! Our little one can now go to sleep on her own. My wife and I are so so grateful for everything she has taught us and for saving our sleep! I would recommend her to anyone that is need of help and guidance!
Nicole was absolutely amazing to work with! She equipped us with the right techniques and skills to help our 7 month old to put herself to sleep and sleep through the night with minimal wake ups. We were blown away by the quick results, our little one went from waking up nearly every 1/2 hour or so to 1 wake up or even no wake ups at all! Both my wife and I were stretched thin with very little sleep and now everyone is able to have some rest, we wish we had found her sooner! Both of us were nervous about sleep training but her approach was gentle and holistic, providing us with the right information to understand the reasoning behind everything. We are even looking to trial our 2 year old next to see if we can get assistance for her sleep. Thank you Nicole for all the help, we are forever grateful to you for helping us achieve our goals for our bub and allowing us to sleep again!
Nicole was absolutely wonderful to work with. Our 9-month-old went from waking 3–4 times a night to sleeping through the night in just one week, it felt like a miracle. She was so supportive, easy to talk to, and always took the time to answer all my questions. The whole process felt clear and manageable with her guidance. We're so thankful for her help and couldn't recommend her more!
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.
Best thing we ever did, and wish we did it earlier! We have a 10m old boy who since 7 months ended up regressing so hard with his sleep that we were cosleeping to have some sanity. But even with cosleeping, we were waking up 3-5 times a night, and I felt like he was breastfeeding constantly overnight just so he could get back to sleep. Not to mention the 30-60 min dance of trying to get him to go down for naps/his night sleep to begin with! At my wit's end, a friend recommended Nicole to us, who immediately was so confident and gracious about how we could turn things around (we completely did not believe her that things could change so well, and so fast!). She was so kind and patient throughout the process, especially when I was bombarding her with questions. Two weeks later, we had our little man back in his cot (which meant better sleep and down time for us!) and he was able to go down for his sleeps within 5-10 mins and he would only wake up once overnight (and that usually wasn't until after 8-10 hours of straight sleep first!). It's been a week since we finished up with Nicole and our little man has continued to improve with his sleep habits, with him not requiring my support to go to sleep most of the time, and if he does, it's only for 5 mins max. Thank you so much Nicole for all of your patience with us, your kindness and most of all your understanding. We feel like functioning humans again, and our little man is so much happier, cheekier and overall more energetic then he's ever been. Much love!
Nicole is absolutely brilliant. She was very thorough in her initial assessment and we started seeing positive changes in our 1yr olds sleep from day 1 of following her plan. By day 7 we surpassed our sleep goals! Her support through the week was unwavering and we felt confident through the whole process. You can tell she truly cares about you and your child's sleep and will tailor her support to your needs.
Nicole is truly amazing. We have turned to her multiple times for both our two babies, and her advice has been spot on EVERY SINGLE TIME! Our almost 3 year old has been consistently sleeping 12 hours overnight without wake ups since she was 8 months old, thanks to Nicole's guidance. We were also recently having trouble with our 4 month old waking up in the middle of the night and staying wide awake for up to 2 hours every night. Nicole helped us tweak our daily nap routine, and within 5 days, the problem completely disappeared! I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who needs help with their babies sleep! She is also very friendly, approachable, and respectful of our individual family's needs.
Nicole helped tremendously in solving my babies sleep difficulties. We went from 2hourly wakes overnight to only waking for 1, maybe 2 feeds. She was flexible in meeting our families needs & offered a responsive approach for our little one. She supported me throughout and answered any questions I had, and happily adjusted our plans perfectly to get the best result. Thanks again Nicole :)
The support, structure, and reassurance we received were exactly what we needed as parents of a premature baby still adjusting to routine. From day one, Nicole brought a sense of calm and confidence that we desperately needed. Her approach was gentle, responsive, and completely tailored to our baby boy and our parenting style. We felt heard, supported, and never pressured - just guided with care and understanding. In just two weeks, we went from unpredictable nights and overtired days to a consistent 7am–7pm routine, self-settling, and restful sleep for everyone. It was a huge shift. Highly recommend to any parent feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure. Nicole made a huge difference for our little one and for us.
Our 8.5 month old daughter went from multiple wake ups over night and inconsistent day sleep to no overnight wake ups within 7 days of adhering to Nicole's sleep plan. At the end of our 14 days of support we had achieved all our sleep goals and a few bonus extras! We are so happy with the support we received from Nicole on a daily basis as well as getting our much needed sleep back. Nicole is passionate, caring and friendly and we couldn't have asked for better support than she provided. We would definitely utilise Nicole's services in the future but hopefully with this program we won't need too (almost bittersweet). Thank you Nicole, you're a gem, C,J & F :)
We are so happy we chose Nicole Nurtures! We had troubles with our little one falling and staying asleep without help once she started child care at 6 months old. With illness and teething there were so many set backs that we all fell into some bad habits. Nicole was an absolute blessing. Right from the beginning she instilled a lot of confidence and hope in us and we were able to get our 10 month old daughter to fall asleep independently and stay asleep right through the night. Nicole was incredibly available to support us, which was so important in the first couple of days of implementing changes as we needed the guidance and reassurance to stay on our path during that time. Her knowledge and warmth made all the difference and we wish we had of gotten started sooner.
Nicole is amazing. I was resistant to getting help, even though I hadn't had proper sleep in a year!!! We talked with Nicole when our son was around 1 and she helped a lot. We tweaked a few different things and now our baby is nearly 2 and he sleeps 12 hours most nights! She was really kind and was careful not to push me into doing anything I was uncomfortable with (i.e letting my baby cry too long). If you are thinking about it… just do it! You need your sleep!
Nicole's program has sorted out both our toddler and 6 month old out within 1 week to be sleeping and feeding at proper times. We can now even stay up late every now and then as we have consistency throughout the night!
Absolutely highly recommend Nicole's newborn sleep guide. So many amazing tips and advice that has helped with my four week olds sleep. She is now settling for sleep so much easier and doing longer stretches overnight. I have no doubt that by using this guide I will be able to set some early sleep habits that will encourage better sleep as she gets older. Can't thank Nicole enough
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.
The nicole nutures newborn sleep guide has been a life saver! So many tips and tricks to get through the dreadful witching hours in the early weeks! My 10 week old now sleeps 8 hours at night thanks to Nicole's guide! Highly recommend!
Nicole's methods work. Simple! We are second time parents (our first child was a great sleeper) and got into the bad habit of rocking our 5 month old son to sleep. He was talking ages to fall asleep, would wake up as we put him down into his cot, and was only sleeping 30 minute blocks. I knew about wake windows, etc… but Nicole just tweaked our routine slightly, and everything fell into place. Not only is our son self settling like a champion, he's also feeding better. If you're struggling please don't delay… it's the best money we've spent!
We highly recommend Nicole! Nicole put together a plan for us that we were comfortable with and ensured a smooth transition for our daughter. She has helped us achieve better sleep for our 2yo daughter and we couldn't be more thankful!
Nicole is amazing! She gave me the confidence and reassurance for putting my Bub to sleep. Nicole educated me on sleep associations which had a significant impact on the way we put bubs to sleep. I am blown away by the results in such a short period of time. My partner and I have had our nights back to reconnect/talk about our days. Thank you Nicole, we are so appreciative your guidance.
A big thank you to Nicole for helping us make big improvements to our little ones sleep! Nicole is lovely and so supportive through the whole process, we would highly recommend her service.
I cannot recommend Nicole Nurture enough! She has genuinely changed our lives. Before working with her, my baby would only co-sleep, needed to be held to sleep, and woke every 45 minutes throughout the night. I honestly never thought we'd get to where we are now. Thanks to Nicole's incredible support, patience, and guidance, my baby now falls asleep independently in her own cot, sleeps 12 hours every night, and takes all of her naps in her cot too. The difference has been absolutely life-changing for our whole family. Nicole also helped me navigate starting solids, and having her knowledge and reassurance made the whole process so much less overwhelming. She was always so kind, supportive, and genuinely cared about helping us succeed. I am beyond grateful for everything she's done for our family. If you're struggling with your little one's sleep, I couldn't recommend Nicole more. She is worth every single cent! ❤️
