Sleeping Bunnies Reviews 

Before we started working with Karlie at Sleeping Bunnies, bedtime was incredibly tough for our family. Our two-year-old daughter could only fall asleep while being fed (which had been great so far) but she would wake up multiple times a night — sometimes as many as ten times. My wife bore the brunt of it since our daughter wouldn’t settle for me at all. Every night felt unpredictable, and it was exhausting watching my wife carry the weight of it, especially knowing we had another baby on the way.

To be honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect when we reached out to Karlie. I’d heard about sleep training/coaching before, and I wasnt sure I wanted to take that approach. The idea of leaving our daughter to cry alone didn’t sit well with me, and I didn’t want anything that would make her feel abandoned. However, from the very first conversation, Karlie put those fears to rest. Her gentle and responsive approach was exactly what we needed. It was never about forcing our daughter to sleep but about teaching her the skills to settle on her own while feeling supported.

The changes we’ve seen are nothing short of amazing. I can now put our daughter to bed myself — something that felt impossible before. She goes down peacefully around 6.30pm and sleeps through the night until 6 am. I can’t even describe how much that has transformed our evenings (and nights!). Instead of dreading bedtime, I genuinely enjoy that time with her. It’s been a bonding experience I didn’t realize I was missing.

On top of that, my wife is finally able to relax in the evenings, knowing she won’t be called away every hour to soothe our daughter. Seeing her get that time back has been incredible. Our entire household feels calmer and more rested. I can’t thank Karlie enough for her patience, guidance, and the genuine care she showed our family. She’s changed our lives, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and the Sleeping Bunnies team to any other parent struggling with sleep.

Karlie has literally changed our lives. Before we reached out to Sleeping Bunnies, bedtime was exhausting - my daughter, at two years old, could only fall asleep while feeding to sleep, and she relied solely on me to comfort her throughout the night. She was co-sleeping, waking anywhere from 2 to 10 times (usually averaging 4-6 times) per night, and all naps were contact naps. My husband was unable to comfort or settle her at all, which meant I was solely responsible for every single wake-up. It was exhausting and felt unsustainable, especially as we prepared for the arrival of our second baby.

Enter Karlie. Her gentle, responsive approach was exactly what we needed. I was initially terrified at the thought of 'traditional sleep training', but Karlie's method was incredibly respectful of our parenting style, responsive and our daughter's emotional needs. Not once did we leave her to cry it out alone and it felt very much like sleep 'coaching' or 'nudging' rather than training. She provided thoughtful, patient, and practical guidance, even extending her support package when we needed to move slower through some of the steps.

The results have been INCREDIBLE. My husband can now easily put our daughter to bed -something I never imagined possible. She falls asleep peacefully by 7 pm (instead of fighting bedtime until almost 9 pm), sleeps consistently through the night until 6 am, and wakes up happier than ever.

Thanks to Karlie, we are all sleeping better, and our household feels completely transformed. Not only has this brought a newfound sense of joy and calm to our family, but it's also allowed me, for the first time in over two years, to enjoy an evening bath again knowing I'm not going to have to get out of the bath half way through to feed our daughter back to sleep!

I honestly could cry (and have cried!) thinking about how much our life has changed. Karlie is incredible - I cannot recommend her and the Sleeping Bunnies team highly enough.

We contacted Sleeping bunnies after our 6 month old had had poor broken sleep since birth. She had only ever been feed to sleep and now was needing to be fed or rocked for upwards of an hour to go to sleep both day and night. We also had 8-10 wake ups every night and frequent night wakings lasting 2+ hours. She wouldn’t be put in her cot and had to sleep on me and co sleep in our bed.
We worked with Rachel and now a month later, she settles herself for every nap and bedtime in her cot and goes to sleep within 5-10 minutes of being put down.
Rachel was amazing, during the initial zoom consultation she explained all the science and research behind baby sleep which I feel is so important in helping me feel equipped to deal with sleep and best help my daughter build healthy sleep habits.
The changes felt small and manageable, and there was good communication and support throughout the process.
I dread to think where we could be if we hadn’t started this process. So so so glad we made the decision to work with Sleeping Bunnies, we are all getting better sleep and our daughter is much happier!
Highly recommend!!

INCREDIBLE! We have just finished our 4 week sleep course with Karlie and was completely blown away. My husband and I were both slightly hesitant going in as we had tried various different things that had not worked previously and was yet to find techniques that would help us soothe our daughter allowing her to feel safe and loved throughout the entire process.

We started the course with around 10-15 wake ups during the night, I was never one for co-sleeping but it got to the stage where my husband and I brought her into bed to see if she would settle better but we continued to have so many false starts and breast feeding became pretty constant throughout the night as I was feeding to sleep.

Karlie was incredible from the beginning, took so much time to get to know us, our goals and everything about our daughter to help put together a really detailed plan that aligned with our goals and way of living.

4 weeks on and our daughter is sleeping in her own cot and pretty much THROUGH THE NIGHT and napping for over an hour twice daily in her cot!!!!!!! We have the odd wake up every now and again in the night as you would expect but we now have the sleep fundamentals and knowledge to know how to better handle them.

We can’t thank sleeping bunnies and Karlie enough, they have been truly incredible and given us so much information and confidence to carry forward! If you’re thinking of whether to invest in the programme I would 100% say GO FOR IT, they are the best!

As a dad, I’ll admit—I was a little skeptical about whether a sleep consultation could really help my 8-year-old daughter transition to sleeping on her own. We’d got into some bad routines & she had always needed either my wife or I by her side to fall asleep, and no matter what we tried, bedtime was a constant battle. I just couldn’t understand how something as simple as going to bed had become such a problem.

From the very first consultation, Anna took the time to understand our family dynamics, my daughter’s personality, and our previous struggles providing us with a step-by-step plan tailored specifically to her needs.

The approach was practical and realistic. They helped us set boundaries without making our daughter feel abandoned. Within just a few nights, we started to see progress and I was amazed at how smoothly she began adjusting.

Now, a few weeks later, she’s falling asleep in her own bed with minimal fuss. The stress around bedtime has disappeared, and our whole family is benefiting. I honestly wish we had done it sooner!

If you’re a parent struggling with a similar situation, I can’t recommend Sleeping Bunnies enough. They truly understand the emotional and practical sides of helping kids gain sleep independence, and their guidance has been a game-changer for our family.

Thanks so much Anna, for helping our daughter get to sleep and in turn giving us our evenings back! 😃

I cannot thank Sleeping Bunnies enough for their guidance in helping me and my 3 daughters who are 8, 6 & 4 years old to fall asleep on their own. Before working with them, bedtime was a constant struggle, my daughters would resist going to sleep alone and needed me by their side or outside their door every night. My partner & I were exhausted and unsure of how to break the cycle. Bedtime was taking up to 2 hours a night.

From the very first consultation, Anna was incredibly understanding, knowledgeable, and supportive. She took the time to understand our girls sleep patterns, fears, and routines, then provided a clear, step-by-step plan tailored to our family’s needs, adjusting the approach when needed to ensure the girls felt comfortable and secure.

Within just a few weeks, we saw a dramatic improvement. Our girls now fall asleep independently with confidence. The guidance we received didn’t just fix the immediate problem—it gave us long-term strategies to maintain healthy sleep habits.

I highly recommend Sleeping Bunnies to any parent struggling with their child’s sleep challenges. Their expertise and practical solutions made all the difference for our family! The most important thing for us was that at no point did the advice ever feel tough, it was all a very gentle approach with tweaks that were really achievable and not difficult to implement.

I’d give Sleeping Bunnies 3 stars. There’s no doubt the team, especially Karlie and Rachel, are knowledgeable and supportive. Their sleep suggestions did bring some improvements, like helping our little one settle more easily and giving us back some precious sleep. However, personally, I felt some of the guidance leaned a bit too heavily on routine-based approaches, which didn’t fully align with what we were looking for at times. While the changes helped for the most part, it hasn’t been a perfect fix, and there were moments we felt a bit unsure about the long-term suitability. That said, they’re kind, approachable, and dedicated – it just didn’t entirely meet our expectations.

I am so happy with the support I received from sleeping bunnies. Before sleeping bunnies I was rocking my daughter to sleep, day and night for 30-60mins and she was up several times through the night sometimes for hours. Now she falls asleep on her own and sleeps through the night. I really couldn’t be more pleased with the support and guidance I received. Plus, I’ve been equipped with sleep principles so I can make thoughtful choices for my daughter’s future sleep. I really couldn’t be happier! Thank you to the incredible team at sleepy bunnies.

Karlie has been really friendly, helpful and professional. Having regular check ins has been great and I would highly recommend Sleeling Bunnies.

We contacted Sleeping Bunnies for help improving sleep with our 6 month old. Rachel was very caring, understanding, reassuring and helpful with weekly phonecalls and text checkins. Although our baby isn't sleeping through the night still there has been some improvement, he can settle himself off to sleep, naps are lengthening, I'm back in my own bed (for most of the night!). I am better equipped with knowledge and tools to help him on his way to a full nights sleep...hopefully!

EDIT
1 week after writing this review and baby has slept the whole night through! Following the advice definitely helped us get here, just needed a bit more time for us. Now I can say it was all absolutely worth it. Having Rachel’s support and guidance gave me reassurance that I was doing all the right things to help baby and me get better sleep ☺️

I couldn’t wait to start the consultation with Sleeping Bunnies. But it turned out to be even more than I could have expected.
We wanted to wean our daughter off the pacifier, get her to sleep in her own bed as the co-sleeper was becoming too small, and eventually transition her to her own room.
The entire process went so smoothly, allowing me the space to respond to her crying instead of using the cry-it-out method.
I’m so happy with how everything went, all that we have achieved, and the support Karlie gave us.
Our daughter now sleeps without a pacifier, in her own bed, in her own room! I couldn’t be happier. So grateful!!

We contacted Sleeping Bunnies for our 4 year old daughter. She would not go down to bed on her own and we had multiple night wakings some being 9 times a night.
So after contacting sleeping bunnies we had a zoom consultation with Rachel I really felt listened to and understood.
And felt afterwards that Rachel would have a solution to the problems going forward. we noticed significant improvements in our little ones sleep, less waking during the night, a more consistent bedtime, and a happier, more rested child overall. It was nice to know we could message Rachel at anytime. Definitely recommend, Thank you Rachel

Karlie at Sleeping Bunnies has helped completely revolutionise our little boy’s sleep. We were in such a rut with our 15 month old’s sleep - he would need to be walked in the carrier for every nap, took hours to go down to bed at night, multiple wakes throughout the night (sometimes every hour) and we did regular carrier walks at 2am/3am to try and get him back to sleep. Karlie took on the challenge to help us - she was so understanding and responsive. Karlie gave us the confidence to try the sooth, settle, repeat method which worked like magic. Within a week our little boy was able to nap in his cot, take himself off to sleep and sleeping longer stretches at night. 5 or so weeks on, he’s regularly sleeping 11+ hours straight, we’ve put the carrier away for good and he’s a much happier boy for it. We honestly cannot recommend Karlie and Sleeping Bunnies enough and it has been so worth the investment.

Wish we’d done this sooner! With Karlie’s support we went from multiple wake ups in the night and hours to settle to sleep each night to easy self settling and a whole night of sleep at long last! I can’t recommend sleeping bunnies enough, it was life changing.

I read all these good reviews and had high hopes since we were so sleep deprived even though it felt like all we were trying to do is to get our 6 month old daughter's sleep right. We were definitely not disappointed, their science based approach works and the 1:1 consultation is so helpful, Karlie had all the answers to the questions that popped up along the way. Our daughter's overall sleep went from 11,5hours to 14hours per day and we had a happier baby that was a lot easier to entertain in her awake time. Instead of 3-5 short daytime naps where she needed me to actively support her to fall asleep which was very time-consuming, we went to 3 naps, 2 of which were mostly long ones in her crib and completely self-settling with minimal occasional support when needed. This made a huge difference to our days, I was much more productive and could actually study for my upcoming exam. The money is absolutely worth it and I couldn't recommend them enough! We will definitely keep working with sleeping bunnies in the future

Thank you so much Sleeping Bunnies! With 2 kids relying on us to be in the room to fall asleep and bedtimes taking hours, both kids now fall asleep on their own! I wasn't sure if we could do it, especially with older kids (6 & 9), or if we could afford it, but we did it and it's 100% worth every penny. I'm not going to lie...we have had some tough nights, and I probably would've given up on my own, but Sleeping Bunnies were super supportive and lovely I just had to keep going. Having that support and accountability was a huge help and means bedtimes are now so much easier! 100% recommend!

Karlie was incredible. Wonderful to work with, flexible and considerate. The sleep plan was built around our family and lifestyle. The progress was huge, giving us back valuable evenings and time. Thank you Karlie 🙏🏼

We started working with sleeping bunnies around the 6 month mark when we realised that despite our Son being a ‘good’ sleeper since 11 weeks, all our old tricks weren’t working anymore and we didn’t know how to fix things. All we knew was that we couldn’t go on as we were. Our Son had stopped sleeping through the night, bedtimes and most nap times were a battle, with multiple false starts, tears and a near-broken back (!) and everyone was miserable. There are so many sleep consultants out there but I found that the majority of them want to push your child onto a routine that is age appropriate and therefore ‘should’ work, without any consideration for the child’s needs and the family. Within a matter of days, we were back to sleeping through the night, our Son could be put down awake and would happily drift off to sleep. My husband and I could barely believe it, and thought it was too good to be true, but we’re now at the 1 year mark, and aside from when he’s been poorly or badly teething, our little one is still sleeping through the night and having two good naps a day. More importantly than this, he is happy. Happy because he has predictability, he understands our routines and he knows what is coming when, he is well rested, and he has two well rested parents!!! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sleeping Bunnies, and I have no doubt we’ll do some add on packages as sleep needs change, and I genuinely look forward to working with the team for those times. They are so responsive and make you feel supported and empowered. Karlie and Anna genuinely feel like part of our family now, which is strange having never met them! We can’t thank them enough for the ongoing support, they’ve gone above and beyond and we know they’re always available if we need them.

Sleeping Bunnies and our consultant Karlie have completely changed our lives with our little girl’s sleep! We first contacted them when baby was 7.5 months old, as we were getting increasingly desperate from lack of sleep. We didn’t want to leave our baby to cry it out but it wasn’t getting better on its own either. She was waking every 1.5hrs and either needed to be fed or rocked to sleep, which was taking forever. We couldn’t seem to get on a schedule and she’d struggle to nap in her cot for any length of time, I had no time to even have a shower. Fast forward to today, and our baby settles herself to sleep with no fuss in about 5 minutes. She has 2 good naps where I get quality time back for myself or with my husband. She settles easily at bedtime and last night she slept for 11.5hrs with no wake ups at all! I am still doing 2 dream feeds but we’re cutting one at the moment before I go back to work so I can have a FULL NIGHT’S SLEEP - I can’t believe it. She is also a much happier baby now she isn’t so overtired. I didn’t think we’d get there but Karlie’s plan has worked, we trusted the process and kept tweaking until we got to where we wanted to be. Karlie was very helpful responding to messages and voice notes in between check ins. We feel so much more confident now that we can deal with any challenges, e.g. baby had covid recently and her sleep went all out of whack, but it only took us 24hrs to get it back onto schedule as she recovered. Bonus is that when she goes to nursery I am more confident that she’ll nap because she has a solid routine and can settle herself. What a massive change in a few weeks - and at no point did we leave her alone crying, we were able to soothe her as much and as often as we wanted, and never had to do anything we weren’t comfortable with. Thank you Sleeping Bunnies! (I am writing this review whilst having an uninterrupted cup of coffee while my baby naps!)

I don’t know what I would do without the sleeping bunnies ladies!!
We had an add on after a 1 to 1 with Kelly originally for a month. Karlie was so fab and helped us transition our routine now my baby is older. Karlie got to the bottom of our troubles right away and was so lovely to work with.
Previously I had a months help with Kelly for our 8 month old who was on short naps, wouldn’t go down at bed time for hours and was up every 1-1.5 hours through the night. Kelly changed our lives! Love that we didn’t have to go down the cry it out route, and she was soo lovely to work with.
