Secure Foundations

We believe that each family is entirely unique, and all our recommendations are individualised and tailored to meet the goals of you and your family.

You can be sure that I will not recommend anything that compromises your maternal instincts and will meet your little one at their point of need.

We look forward to working with you to improve the harmony in your house and especially welcome partnerships working with those who are caring for children with attachment disorders and/or a trauma history.

We look forward to hearing from you to discuss how we can help with your sleep, behaviour or parenting struggles.

Client Testimonials

Sarah helped us immensely with the sleep transition of our little boy. We had tried multiple approaches, but none seemed to work.

When we found Sarah, she was completely on par with everything we wanted for us and our son and although his determined nature, Sarah helped us have a major breakthrough with him and his sleep.

I feel that her moral support alone was all I needed but she exceeded above and beyond and completely tailored Van’s ‘schedule’ to suit his and our needs.

Nothing was ever too much to ask and I always felt peace of mind knowing I had her to cheer me on and offer professional advice.

Bree Craine

We used Sarah to stop our chronic catnapper from constantly napping for 45 mins.

Within 3 days she had linked most cycles, was down to 1 feed & wake up per night and then within the week sleeping through the night.

Sarah respected our wishes and worked with our parenting style.

Cannot recommend highly enough, you are incredible, and we are forever thankful.
