The Sleeping Baby Routine Reviews 

We had such a great experience. Charmian’s method is rigorous but effective. We booked in for the 5 day sleep consultation but in reality we covered so much more. We saw results within the first day. She is very knowledgable, supportive and tailored every recommendation to us and our daughter. Although it was hard work for the week, we felt like charmian really had our backs throughout: guided us through the hard bits and celebrated the many wins with us. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough!

After almost three months of multiple wakes per night (sometimes every 45min-1h) we were desperate for help (little one was 5 months at this point). I’ve researched a lot of sleep consultants and wanted someone who doesn’t just have an online course certificate but actual experience with babies. When I saw that she worked as pediatric nurse plus did loads of sleep training, I was sold! We got 5 day consultation with calls every morning + message support throughout the day. On the second night he woke up only twice, I couldn’t believe it! By the end of the week we were (and still are) on one wake per night but to be honest it’s because I can’t follow through with the check ins consistently (not Charmian’s fault - she gave me the tools). He now wakes up in the morning without crying and even spending time chilling in the crib before I come to pick him up. We keep following the plan she gave us and that means he’s not fighting the naps and is overall much happier and well rested baby.

When I was looking at reviews and reading all the positive ones, I was hoping I could write one of these one day and here I am! The only thing I regret is not contacting her before, so stop torturing yourself (and your child) and go for it. It’s genuinely priceless!

A couple of things to note and keep in mind though - the first few days will be *tough* there’s most likely going to be a lot of things you need to do depending on the age of your child (in my case it was pumping, breastfeeding, introducing solids for three meals, naps, keeping him awake, etc) BUT it all pays off honestly and you find your rhythm after the consultation so you can tweak bits and bobs on the go.

Another thing is that Charmian is no BS person - as in very direct! Doesn’t do much of small talk or anything like that. She also thinks it can always be better and pushes you to keep going and improving. So, some tough love moments are to be expected.

Again, the best investment we’ve made as we’re all much more rested and happy!

We worked with Charmain over a year ago when our son was 5.5 months old and he slept through the night from the week we worked with her. However, the last few months early wakes have been a struggle and we have a second baby on the way. I booked a 1 hour review with Charmain last week and we have already seen huge progress based off the routine and feeding tweaks that she recommended. Once again thank you!

We could not have had a better experience. Charmian was incredible! She listened to us and gave very specific feeback which allowed us to implement the new routine that very same day. And we were beyond impressed! No crying, no tantrums, our toddler was able to put herself to sleep in under 10 minutes from the first day. We're so grateful!

Charmian has been a total lifesaver! Our baby wasn’t sleeping through the night, couldn’t self-settle, and we were also dealing with feeding issues (bottle aversion / taking hours to feed) and low milk supply. Thanks to her amazing support, our baby now sleeps like a dream, self-settles, feeds easily and is happier than ever. She also gave us the tools to troubleshoot issues as and when they crop up. We’re so so grateful and couldn’t recommend her more highly.

We have had Charmian consult with us for both our children in addition to many of our friends. The routine has been invaluable in getting our babies to sleep through the night and generally be happier babies.

Charmian came for in house support in addition to remote help ahead of the visits. Charmian is a wealth of knowledge and was able to advise on digestion, milk production, routine, burping and more. We always recommend Charmian to any friends having children.

We had reached a difficult point with our (nearly) 4 month old and needed help with his nights mostly. Charmian gave us a strict routine and the confidence to execute it.

It’s a tough process which would be hard to put in place without expert input, and she gave us that.

After only 3 days we had some real changes and have enjoyed better nights. Not perfect but better! We’re hoping he’ll continue to improve as the weeks go by.

very beginning — starting with her book, which became my go-to from the moment my daughter was born. Around the third or fourth week, I reached out for a personal consultation, and since then, Charmian has been supporting us consistently.

In the early days, I booked a 5-day support package to help establish a rhythm with sleep, feeding, and naps. Later on, we consulted her again during the introduction of solids — and that guidance was equally valuable. It helped ensure that starting solids didn’t disrupt our baby’s sleep patterns.

The result of this work? Since four months old, my daughter has been sleeping through the night — and still does, now at one year and two months. Even recently, during a developmental leap, Charmian’s support proved essential again. Small, seemingly minor adjustments — like shifting the timing of a snack — made a big difference and helped us stay on track.

Today, our little girl sleeps 11 hours straight every night without waking — and that’s entirely thanks to Charmian’s deep knowledge and practical, sensitive approach. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a sleep consultant. Her support has made a huge difference in our family’s well-being.

She fully supported me following the birth of my second baby by helping get my baby into a solid and consistent sleep and feeding routine. My baby within a few months was sleeping throughout the night - this was HUGE for me, changed the entire dynamics of my household and helped me immensely get sleep too as a I have toddler to also look after. Charmian is hands on, supportive, encouraging yet straight talking and a problem solver. I love her and trust her - she absolutely knows what she is doing. I could not recommend her enough

We had in person support for 2 weeks, as well as 1 week remote support via phone calls and whatsapp messaging.

Charmian manages to balance being hands-on and giving lots of advice, without being overbearing. The advice was invaluable, and we learnt lots of tips and tricks to keep our baby well fed and well slept, and to support mum in building her milk production. We are using the routine now, and when we deviate (which inevitably happens) you can see the difference immediately. Fortunately, the routine is easy to restore, and easy to follow - it also gives new parents time to rest and get their strength back too.

We were a little apprehensive about having a 'stranger' in the house at this precious time with our little one, but Charmian is a great house guest, is super supportive, and requires very little from you, but gives you a ton of support.

Overall highly recommended!

I purchased Charmian’s book when we had our first child in 2020 and followed it successfully to achieve a baby sleeping soundly through the night from 11 weeks. Our daughter is 5 years old now and still a fantastic sleeper, much to our delight. When our second child arrived in 2024, we followed the routine again. Although some great success early on, we did struggle to maintain a solid night sleep with him or get steady independent daytime naps. At 5 months old we decided it was time to speak to Charmian and booked a 5 day support package. The process of booking this was simple via the website. On the Monday we ironed out what might be going wrong with his current routine and Charmian devised a new one which included lots of weaning improvements and advise. By Tuesday he was napping soundly having increased his food intake, and as a result of other tweaks each night the sleep was getting better and better! Charmian was very attentive keeping in touch each day to see how we were doing and I felt very reassured I could ask any questions I had and get a very prompt reply. I feel much more confident now that we are on the right path to adding another great sleeper to our family thanks to the sleeping baby routine and Charmian’s. It’s also so reassuring to know she is there should we have any further issues in the future. Would recommend to everyone that wants to improve their babies routine and sleep.

I was recommended Charmian by a friend as my 3 month old would wake multiple times in the night and would fight all naps in the day and I got into abit of depression from the sleep deprivation. I had been in contact with other sleep experts but nothing worked for my daughter so I was really apprehensive when I got in contact with Charmian but in all honesty I wished I knew about her sooner she completely changed our lives! We had been through a lot with my daughter since birth as she was 95% tongue tie, so struggled to get her to feed more than 2oz, even after her tongue division and were just not helped enough with feeding, but after 24 hours from starting our journey with Charmian our daughter was going down for naps without being rocked for half an hour or longer and was taking 6oz at every feed! The turn around in such a short time was amazing and the support with got with our daughters feeding and sleep was amazing. My daughter is now sleeping through the night, going down for naps not crying and feeding 8oz every feed which I never thought would happen. The results have really shocked me and my husband and would couldn’t be more grateful. I would honestly recommend Charmian to anyone and her knowledge is amazing!

Charmian has helped us hugely, our son is 4.5months old and was waking once or twice at night and needing a bottle to resettle, never did naps longer than 30mins and we were struggling to navigate weaning. Since speaking to her I have the confidence with weaning, he’s slept through the night most nights (or if not, successfully using the settling plan without feeding now), and has more predictable naps each day.

Charmian has the confidence through working with so many babies and children which enabled us to get a good routine going, so I’m glad we didn’t wait longer to speak to her and I feel I can enjoy my maternity leave more because of it!

Charmian was recommended to us through good friends, she had looked after two of their children and left them with happy, healthy, sleeping babies. We were so pleased when Charmian agreed to come “in house” with us for our third baby. Charmian is calm and kind, and clearly has an immense knowledge of babies and especially how their digestion works. We felt confident with the routine that Charmian implemented and supported completely throughout the time Charmian was with us. She left us at nine weeks with a happy, healthy baby who sleeps through the night!

Amazing experience! My 14 week old went from 5 wake ups a night to sleeping through within 2 days of working with Charmian, all without sleep training. He’s so much happier and more predictable now and I’m in cloud 9 that I also get to sleep again. Thank you Charmian!

I was following Charmain’s book from day 1 with my baby and after about 3 weeks, he was sleeping through the night. This continued for 3 months before he started waking multiple times. I was at a loss of how to help, so I booked a call with Charmain.
During this call I explained my situation and she offered invaluable advice. After 1 day he started sleeping through the night again.
As his needs are now being met, he is overall a much happier baby boy. I couldn’t recommend Charmain enough to anyone whether it’s your 1st child or not. It’s helped structure my days, know what to expect and also have a happy baby as I know what he needs throughout the day before a restful night.

I have had the pleasure of working with Charmian on two separate occasions. The first time was when my son was three months old and I was desperately trying to get him to sleep through the night as he was occasionally still waking between 3-4am. We were also going through the effects of a tongue tie release and a bottle aversion at the time so there was a lot going on. Charmian helped me establish a routine and gave me tips on the best positions for bottle feeding. Having her track us both for a week was a game changer. I felt completely at ease and within a couple of days our routine was established and no one early morning wake ups. Charmian has been paramount to my son fully sleeping through the night ever since!

I then worked with Charmian again when we started weaning. The bottle aversion had improved but it was not great and so Charmian suggested moving onto purées to help take some pressure off the milk. She tracked us for a week and again each tip and piece of advice made such a difference. It is all about finding the right balance and without Charmian it would have taken me so much longer to figure it out.
Now I love our meal times together and am confident they will go from strength to strength. I am so grateful.

If you are struggling or feel stuck I couldn’t recommend Charmian more highly. She is wonderful and incredibly good at what she does. Trust her, it will make a huge difference.

We had a baby who was difficult to get to nap and put to bed in evening; he now self settles for both naps and in the evening and that has been a huge help. Thanks!

Brenda changed our lives! She is a baby whisperer and that is the only way I can describe her! I could not have managed motherhood without her! Thank you xx
