Leanne was absolutely incredible! Our 6 month old would not sleep in her bassinet at all, we would take turns holding her every night and trying to put down until we gave up and co-slept. Our baby slept a full night in her own cot, in her nursery, on night one of Leanne’s program and every night since! We can’t recommend Leanne enough!!!

We had such a wonderful experience with Leanne. At 7 months old, our son was still in our bedroom, in a Snoo, fully swaddled, being fed to sleep and waking 6 to 8 times a night for 3 months straight. Despite being my third baby, I couldn't see any way out of our situation and getting him into a cot and sleeping through the night felt so far away and impossible to achieve. We received Leanne's sleep plan and had a 1:1 call with her to discuss the plan she'd put in place for us. That night, our son put himself to sleep, slept through the entire night in a cot, in his own room, arms out. And he's done it every single night since. My husband and I were honestly shocked. Leanne checked in on our progress regularly for 2 weeks, validating our approach or providing additional tips where necessary. Having Leanne available should we ever need to troubleshoot was extremely comforting. If you're reading this in the depths of sleep deprivation and wondering whether you should engage Leanne, do not hesitate, book her in ASAP. Our biggest regret is how long we allowed ourselves to suffer before we engaged Leanne. You will not regret it at all! Finally, Leanne, thank you so much for your support. Getting our sleep back has made such a difference to us as individuals, as parents to our 3 boys and our family as a whole. Thank you!!!

Leanne has the perfect personality and demeanour for this job. Having her come to our home and adjust the sleeping environment before guiding me through a bed time was such a relief after being so lost in the overwhelming noise of advice online. Her mothering care yet sensible and direct approach was absolutely perfect for us. I also really don’t know where we would be without the day schedule she put together for us which is flexible and realistic while being easy to follow. The sleep and overall happiness of our little 4 month old is incomparable after Leanne’s help and I tell anyone who will listen that she’s the best. Thank you so much Leanne, I wish we could continue to have your guidance for the rest of her childhood. You’re a breath of fresh air and logic amongst conflicting and over complicated options. Forever grateful.

Giya was 4 months old when we reached out to Leanne for support with her sleep. At the time, we had no consistent routine we spent hours rocking her every night, trying to transfer her to her side sleeper in our room, and even then she would only sleep for a couple of hours. Giya was a terrible sleeper since birth and had never although the night and needed multiple feeds throughout the night. Day naps were a struggle too, usually lasting no more than 30 minutes, which just wasn’t sustainable for any of us. After our consult with Leanne and receiving a personalised sleep plan, we started right away. After just one night, Giya was sleeping in her own room in her cot, only waking for two feeds between 7pm and 7am. I was honestly shocked that it worked so well for her at such a young age but I think starting early made it easier, as she picked up the new way to sleep so quickly! A couple of weeks later, Leanne suggested giving Giya the opportunity to self-settle, and once again it worked beautifully. Now, after her bedtime routine, I can put her in her cot and leave the room, and she puts herself to sleep! We’re now getting three proper naps a day and longer, more restful sleep at night. Leanne’s guidance has honestly been life-changing for our family, she’s kind, knowledgeable, and supportive every step of the way. I would not have been able to do it without the ongoing support and check ins, for me this was a game changer. We are so grateful for her help and can’t recommend her enough!

We had such a fantastic experience with Leanne. Our 10m old daughter went from walking 3-4 times per night to sleeping through within 3 days. Leanne’s approach was tailored and thoughtful. She went through sleep, feeding, settling plus much more. We honestly couldn’t recommend her more highly. Her daily check ins were warm, encouraging. We only wish we had reached out sooner. Thank you for everything Leanne!

We reached out to Leanne when our baby was 7 months old and had been co sleeping in our bed since about 3.5 months. We were unable to put her down for any naps (we’d only do contact or carrier naps), or even in the evening before bed. My husband and I would take turns holding her asleep before we all went to bed together. It was controlling our life and obviously our babe’s sleep wasn’t very optimal. Leanne came in and really helped to empower us to properly sleep train and was always available to answer any questions/work through doubts.

Leanne is an absolute miracle worker! Our seven-month-old was waking every one to two hours throughout the night and needed to be rocked or fed to fall back asleep. During the day, she would only nap if she was in the pram, a front pack, or being fed to sleep....

“Highly recommend - this came at the perfect time for our family. Having someone you can ask your questions and stop second guessing yourself is so important.”

Working with Leanne has been an absolute game changer for our little family. From the very first conversation, she brought a calm, confident, and compassionate energy that instantly made me feel supported and understood. Her personalised approach made all the difference – she really took the time to understand our baby’s needs and our parenting style, and created a sleep plan that was both effective and gentle. Within days, we started seeing real progress, and now we have a baby who is sleeping so much better – and so are we! Leanne was always available to answer questions, provide reassurance, and adjust the plan when needed. She never made us feel judged or pressured – just empowered, educated, and capable. I honestly can’t recommend her highly enough. If you’re feeling overwhelmed and exhausted, Leanne is the sleep angel you’ve been looking for.

Leanne is a godsend. We were determined to work the whole thing out ourselves naively believing we had what it took. We didn't. In what was a remarkable display of professionalism, she walked into our home and took control of the situation instilling in us the necessary skill set to get the job done and he's slept 10-12hrs every night since. I couldn't recommend her more highly

"After many difficult nights and poor sleep we reached out to Leanne for help. We organised an over night consultation which was highly successful. We learnt so much and use this on a daily basis. Your advice and expertise has been a game changer for us. I would recommend Leanne to anyone seeking compassionate advice in dealing with sleep and settling issues."

"Leanne is amazing. She taught our baby how to sleep through the night and in doing so returned our sanity. She is so amazing in her knowledge of all things to do with your precious babies sleep. I cannot recommend her highly enough if you are needing support and love during the challenging time of becoming new parents. She returned to us our sense of peace. A must for every new parent. Our baby now sleeps soundly from 7am to 7pm thanks to Mother in Touch."

"Leanne was great for my son’s sleep. Whilst my son was never a terrible sleeper, I needed help after his night wakings increased. Leanne provided simple guidance and daily follow ups / check ins. Night wakings have now reduced and we have a great nap schedule."

"Leanne literally changed out lives! It was like having a companion in my pocket, we soon realized it was the accountability and momentum we needed to succeed. Her tailored approach to our boy significantly improved his sleep within the first 2 nights. Our only regret is we didn't reach out sooner! Highly recommend."

“We struggled with our 4-month-old’s sleep, facing multiple night wake-ups and difficulties with cot naps. After a weekend of hourly wake-ups, we contacted Leanne and received a quick response. Following her advice, we adjusted the baby’s room and daytime schedule. Within days, our baby had two 2-hour naps in her cot and fewer night wake-ups!”

“After baby Harry was born, I was overwhelmed and sleep-deprived, and so was he. I struggled with motherhood and managing a new baby, wondering how others did it. Leanne provided support, tools, a personal strategy, and the confidence to use a nap schedule. Within days, Harry was sleeping, eating, and I felt like a new woman, finally enjoying my baby.”

“Our bub had a long sleep regression after ear infections, waking up every 90 minutes. We considered an ENT specialist, but decided to try Leanne after reading her reviews. The first night showed amazing results! Following her schedule, he fell asleep in 4 minutes and slept through from 7:30 PM. After 3 weeks, he’s falling asleep without tears.”
