Some exciting things happening with sleep soon, but I can't let the 'cat out of the bag' just yet!! Share this post with your shift-workers friends and family, so they can find out about what's coming up very soon😀

YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO FEEL EXHAUSTED JUST BECAUSE YOU WORK SHIFTS.
- Working shifts changes more than your schedule—it can disrupt your body clock, affect sleep quality, and leave you feeling like you never fully recover.

- If you've started thinking this is "just part of nursing," it may actually be a sign your sleep-wake pattern is working against you.

Swipe through to see 5 signs your shift work is affecting your recovery.

3 IMPORTANT QUESTIONS YOU MUST ASK BEFORE ENGAGING A SLEEP THERAPIST...

1. Is your sleep therapist registered with a professional body?
2. Is your sleep therapist a sleep practitioner? 3. Are they trained in CBTi?

* If not, you are doing yourself and your child out of best practice sleep therapy…
* You could be placing your child at harm…
*You’re likely paying for a service of limited value, education and results….

Sleep is the foundation of a healthy life and so is what you put into your mouth. My usual multigrain toast was replaced with whey pancakes, plumcot jam grown in my orchard, and homemade fresh ricotta...yum!

* TOPIC: SLEEP ANXIETY IN SCHOOL AGED KIDS: 3 evidence-based facts you should know!
*
* You'll do anything for a good night's sleep...who wouldn't?
*
* 1. The thing is while you are doing the 'thing' to get your child to sleep' you are not allowing them to develop emotional regulation and sleep confidence, independent of you.
*
* 2. Sleep anxiety is very real and almost half of every classroom of primary school kids has a sleep problem. Regular bedtime and wake up times, although important, are not effective enough with resolving sleep anxiety.
*
* 3. Childhood insomnia is linked to adult insomnia and irrespective of age insomnia is linked to dis-ease of the body and mind.
* How do you know if your child has insomnia?

Stuck with a bad sleeper? Tried everything?
Here is our latest 5 STAR review - THANKS JULIA XX
Deb worked a miracle with our little 15 month old. I had tried all the baby government settling techniques and also attended a public sleep school (though not recently), but none of the suggested tools made any difference to our baby at all. Deb provided evidence based sleep techniques but with concrete guidance suited to our situation and supported me based on what I felt was the best way to support my baby through this process. We saw dramatic results from the first evening and our baby started sleeping through from the second night and has slept through from the third night since then (and even when she needed to sleep in a portacot when we were travelling). This is after 15 months of spending up to 5 hours trying to get her to sleep with nothing working except vigorous rocking, singing, dancing and then more recently breastfeeding to sleep. And never getting a full nights sleep. Deb continues to offer support and follow up and has also been invaluable to us.
