Where to start? When I met with Clare I was co sleeping and not getting more than 2 hours solid sleep each night. It had been over a year since I had more than 2-3 hrs solid sleep at a time. I told her I would love to have a solid 4 hours sleep. Also nap time consisted of one of us sitting in the recliner or laying in bed with her while she slept. We had a bedtime routine, but she always ended up co sleeping and nursing off and on all through the night (not for food, but to pacify). Clare was able to build off of our bedtime routine and give us tips on ways to adjust it to adapt to baby falling asleep easier and on her own. She also adapted the program to our needs and our lifestyle, as well as baby’s age. After finishing the two week program with Clare, our sweet baby is getting her much needed 11-12 hours each night and doing great with her naps each day. Not only did Clare help establish a great routine for our baby, she supported us through the whole process, especially me! I’m not a first time mom. It’s my fourth. So whether you’re a first time mom or have multiple children, I’m sure you can relate. If you are struggling with lack of sleep and need help figuring out the best schedule for baby or simply need the support to stick to a schedule, Clare is just what you need! You will be amazed at what a difference just two weeks makes. It’s so worth it! — feeling rested.

We were so excited for the program and excited for it this time around. We had waited too long we thought…I had tried on my own when my daughter was under 1, but had to stop because of a health issue she had. Years went by and we had some bad habits, many. Once my she recovered, it was still several hours I’d spend in her room and multiple night wakings ending frustrated and tired. This time with Clare was a game changer! One on one coaching amazingly helped me stick on the plan and encouraged both my daughter and I to stick with it. Within the first few days, we had 0 night wakings after years of interrupted sleep! After we finished the program it has benefited our entire family. All my kids are on board and sleeping better. It’s never too late, don’t wait to start and use a consultant, it’s so worth it.

My 4 y/o son before working with Clare

*needed me to lay with him until he fell asleep

*needed a sippy cup of milk to fall asleep

*needed more milk when he would wake throughout the night

*would only sleep in his bed for the first 2-5 fours

*screamed when daddy would lay him down

*leaked through his pull-up most nights because of all the milk

After working with Clare, he

*wakes up with a dry pull-up most of the time

*doesn’t cry when it’s bedtime

*lays down on his own

*falls asleep on his own

*sleeps 10-12 hours without waking up

*doesn’t demand milk or a sippy cup at all

I knew it was time for a change. I was exhausted and defeated after several attempts with sleep training my 4 year old.

Clare was a joy to work with. She answered most of my questions before I even asked them. She communicated well. She gave me everything I needed in order to know what I was doing and confidently sleep train each night. I highly recommend working with Clare!!

I am so thankful to have a few hours to myself each night AND to have kiddos that aren’t over tired all of the time because they didn’t sleep well or long enough.

I can’t express how wonderful it was to work with Clare.  We reached out when we were having trouble with our 6 month old daughter’s sleep.  She was waking multiple times, waking early and I was getting into a cycle of nursing her to sleep.  My husband and I knew that We needed help to get on track so we could learn good habits and help our little one become an independent sleeper…that is where Clare comes in.  From the beginning I was overly impressed with her professionalism and communication skills.  She was direct, thorough and more importantly she listened to our questions and gave empathetic and thoughtful answers…always keeping in mind that our goal was to get sleep but not at the cost of being there for our babe.  She provided a clear game-plan and had a great system in place to track our progress and communicate daily as we navigated our new schedule.  There were lots of adjustments and little tweaks over the 2 weeks that she was able to predict and in the end we went from 2-3 night wakings to 1 or none.  And better yet, our little one is able to put her self back to sleep if she does wake!  Clare was also able to help me with night weaning which was a goal that I had and was afraid to do.  But it is all going great and we are all sleeping and thriving!  Moms and Dads…you don’t have to wait for good sleep!  The investment in sleep training with Clare is sooo worth it and will make your home a happier and more rested place!

To say we were struggling with our 10 month old would of been the understatement of the century. Our little guy was waking 5-10 times a night needing rocked back to sleep. I dreaded night time and was starting to lose all patience in every aspect of life.

After complete desperation kicked in, we hired Clare. I needed someone to tell me where I was going wrong, what I was doing right, and what I needed to adjust.

Clare was exactly what I needed, she held my hand and worked with our little guy through getting 4 teeth in the two weeks time frame, learned how to crawl and learning to stand! We had to pivot and adjust our plan multiple times, there is absolutely ZERO chance I could have navigated all that without her.

In just 10 days, our baby was sleeping in his own room without needing me to rock him to sleep at nap time or bed time! He now naps 1.5-2.5+ hours- twice a day, and sleeps 10+ hours at night on his own.

The program is easy and of course had its challenging moments, but Clare was there to help through it all. I would without a doubt recommend Clare- our only regret with hiring her, is that we hadn’t done it sooner.

Excellent service with amazing results! Prior to working with Clare at Blissfully Rested, I was up 8-9 times a night with my infant. After our training period, we are down to 1 Wake up for her required feeding. I was reluctant at first because I thought it would be difficult to train but Clare made it easy and straightforward and the sleep plan was written with care. My infants naps are much better, she goes down with ease and they are in her crib which was a victory since she only would take motion naps previously. Great response time and my expectations were far exceeded. Highly recommended for any parent.

I just want to share that I am THRILLED with your program! We are now into the 2nd month and even in the very beginning he is sleeping 11-12+ hours straight through the night!

He has learned to put himself back to sleep and we never thought that would happen, it has been simply amazing! We used to be the parents who got no sleep, now our friends are jealous that he sleeps so many hours through the night and their child doesn’t!I brag to EVERYONE about how well he sleeps and that we have a life again!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I never dreamed I would sleep through the night for 8 hours again! You are awesome!

I purchased Sleep Sense™ A few weeks ago and I am absolutely satisfied. The change was INSTANT, the same night I started reading the book was the night he started sleeping better and he keeps improving.

My wife and I are also sleeping better and we a better parents for it as we are able to enjoy our new son. Thank you for all your help. I will definitely recommend this system to any new parents

From 2 proud and well rested parents (and one cute little boy)

Why didn’t we try this sooner?! As we speak he is sound asleep in his crib – and has been since 7.15 pm. We are so pleased to get the evenings to ourselves again, and Tinius – who has always been a very happy boy – is even more happy now. It is now obvious to us that he didn’t get enough sleep before and that our difficulties getting him to sleep in the evenings were due to the fact that he was overly tired. Now we follow your advise on bedtime routines and everything else we learned from the sleep Sense program and are happy to say that your success rate is still 100% :-).

I would like to say a huge ‘Thank You’ to you. Your system is well explained and well researched and has worked wonders in our house. It is like Hana is saying ‘Thank You Mammy – i really needed this’, she is so happy since we began. We tell her it is ‘Sleepy Girl Time’ she knows what that means now and tucks her head into her blankey when we say it to her, ready for bed. She is so clever. We are going to stick to it for her sake and like the other parents you mentioned we are delighted with the time together we have now.

So once again, Thank You – keep doing what you are doing,

I wanted to thank you for your wonderful manual. I have a baby girl of a year and a half who was very active during the day and was having problems sleeping through the night. Thanks to your program she’s sleeping all night, and though she sometimes wakes up, it is for very little time and she goes back to sleep on her own.

It’s been a blessing for me and my husband, but of course also for her, since she wakes up very happy and goes about her day happier than ever and as active as always, too. Again, congratulations on your new baby girl and thank you for your wonderful program. Wish you all the best all the way from San Juan, Puerto Rico.

It is 10 to 7 on this lovely Spring evening and Joshua is sleeping soundly in his cot as he did last night and the night before for 10-12 hours. He always slept well to begin with but when he was unwell and the teething started it all went wrong. We did what we thought was the right thing to do at the time but soon realized that Joshua had developed a whole new routine – one that involved not going to sleep at night and then waking up several times a night for a bottle!!

Thankfully, your Sleepsense plan put us all back on track and we hopefully will never look back.

Many thanks again and good luck in all that you do.

Since getting onto your sleep sense program, Beau has been an angel. It was hard going for about a week or two when we first started, but now he goes to bed without hesitation and sleeps well through the night. It was a blessing to my husband and I.

We have regained our lives- slightly anyway and are back in the land of the living because of the sleep we now get in the night and a bit of a rest in the day. Thanks for your help. i have also put so many friends onto the program too and they all rave about it.

I wanted to thank you for the Sleep Sense™ program. Things have been hectic at our house (contractors all over the place doing loud work during the day), so naptime has been challenging. But we implemented some things we learned from the Sleep Sense™ program at bedtime, and what a difference!!!

We’re only on the fourth night, but already Megan has developed her own self-soothing techniques, falling asleep on her own albeit with some crying, waking only once to eat during the night and putting herself back to sleep on her own with her other nightwakings.

My husband and I are so happy to have a long stretch of sleep again! Thank you so much. We still have some work to do regarding naps, but we’ll get there. Thanks again and take care.

I followed all of your instructions and my 2-year old was sleeping through the night (in his own room) in less than a week. The first couple of days were terrible. He would come into our room about 15 times per night. He also threw terrible tantrums which included emptying the contents of his dressers and removing his mattress from his bed!

However, by Day 3 we started seeing positive progress. I don’t have to tell you what a difference it has made in our household. We are all sleeping again and my son’s overall disposition has improved. He was always a good boy but because he was tired, he would act out at times. I am happy to report that he has stopped throwing tantrums entirely and he seems generally happier and more secure.

I have referred you to six friends and I will continue to refer you to others having sleep issues. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

I cannot thank you enough for giving me the gift of sleep! Two days before my son turned 9 months old, I was at my wits end and felt like I was on the verge of a breakdown. I had not had more than 4 hours straight of sleep in a year, and was truly exhausted. It affected my home life, my relationships with friends, and especially the quality of my work at my job.

My son had never slept more than 5 or 6 hours straight, but at 6 months old he began to wake up every 3-4 hours. I honestly thought he was just hungry, but didn’t realize I was setting him and myself up for sleep failures. Well, he is now 9 months old. As of last night, which was night # 8, on your sleep program, Christian slept for 10 1/2 hours straight! He woke up one time, cried for about 30 seconds, and was back asleep before I could even open my eyes to check the time. By night 3, he was sleeping 9 hours, which was amazing to me. Because I was so accustomed to waking up throughout the night, I can’t even sleep past 4:30 am now, but I know that it will take some time for my body to realize that it can truly rest again.

Thank you for giving me my me-time back in the evenings, for giving me sleep back at night, and for teaching me how to be a better parent. We are all much happier now, and I am even back to working out in the mornings while Christian sleeps. At this point, I am telling EVERY parent that I know about your program. It was well worth every cent and more! God bless you!

Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

I just had my first full night of sleep in 5 1/12 months. It was the third night of implementing the program and she slept from 7:00 to 5:00 and went back down until 7:00. I am so happy I woke up crying:) Thanks again! You are a life saver

THANK YOU SO MUCH! Your sleep programme is fantastic and truly works! Last night was our 6th night and things are going brilliantly well! I really can’t thank you enough.

Joel slept through on the 3rd night, had a bit of a blip on the 4th night, but I think it was because he had a dirty nappy and was uncomfortable but 5th and 6th nights…straight through! Thank you

You are a life saver!!!! Within 1,5 weeks of starting your program, Kaide is going down at 7:30 with no arguments, and he is managing to put himself back to sleep within 10 minutes, he is also having two nice sleeps in the day. I am a totally different person, and our relationship has improved tenfold.

After having just accepted that this was to be my lot in life, I had resigned myself to the fact that I would have to survive on between 3 and 5 hours sleep a night. I have my own business, which means if I loaf, I don’t get paid, so sleeping in the day is out of the question. Kaide is with me all day and would only sleep for 30 minutes once a day, so as you can imagine, I could not function to full capacity at all.

We got advice from everyone, and tried everything, but all people could say was, “you made your bed, now lie in it.” Everyone knew the problem, but no-one could give us a solution, even the doctors. That is until I stumbled upon your website. You made it so easy.

Our history with Kaide was the cause of the problem. When he was born, his Dad and I were building a lodge in the Kruger National Park. Seeing as the house we were in was the only accommodation at the time, we had to share it with builders, plumbers, head office staff etc etc, with up to 14 people sleeping in a three bedroom house with us and our 6 week old baby.

Kaide also had colic, and as I was the only one who never had to do heavy work, it was my duty to keep the little guy quiet when he awoke in pain, so everyone else could get a decent nights sleep. I would sit up all night with him to keep him quiet, and pass out at about 5am. During the day he would only sleep for 6 minutes at a time, so there was no time for me to sleep then either. As he got older we found that if he went down before 8pm he would wake at 9:30, and would not go back down until 12:00. If we put him down at 9pm, he would sleep till 8am, but still he awoke at least 5 times a night and needed me.

Having become so accustomed to rocking and shushing him back to sleep, when he awoke in the night, that is exactly what I would do. Not realizing that this was not actually what was expected of me, that my child would not despise me, or worse end up with a low IQ from screaming. I definitely suffered with depression and only now can I see how badly. I was starting to lose it, and Kaide and I were not enjoying one another at all. Your program has given us back our lives, and has recreated that special bond that I lost with my child.

Thank you so much
