Safe Sleep Space

Founded in 2008, and known for our gentle, response-based approach, we are Australia's leading baby sleep consultants who specialise in sleep and settling of newborns, infants and toddlers.

Our approach is underpinned by research and an understanding that every infant, toddler and parent is unique. We start by providing you with a better understanding of a child’s needs, cues and capabilities, then provide a step-by-step guide to workable strategies for creating an emotional and physical safe sleep space.

How to boost executive function in children

Executive function is not something we are born with, but rather a range of skills which we develop over time. Babies and very young children don’t have the maturity or capacity to use executive function skills until they have developed between the ages of 3-5 years.  This is why so much of their behaviour is impulsive and reactive, especially in the toddler years. Although this can be frustrating for parents to manage, it’s also very normal and useful to remind ourselves that young children generally do the best they can, with what they’re capable of doing.
