Single Consultation – €175
If you are currently experiencing minor difficulties getting your baby or child to sleep, you may consider having a single consultation with Edel by telephone or Skype. Single baby or child sleep training consultations typically take about an hour and are ideal if you are looking for reassurance of the approach you are taking or have a few issues you’re not quite sure about. Many Baby Sleep Academy clients come back for single consultants on their second or third child.

Should I go for the Single Consultation or the Consultation with Tailored Plan?
The Single Consultation is perfect for minor sleep issues. The Consultation with Tailored Plan is recommended if your infant has more complex sleep issues such as waking constantly during the night, constantly needing soother replaced, frequently waking to be fed during the night, needs to be rocked to sleep, won’t sleep without a parent present, or other complex sleep issues. I provide a gentle approach to baby sleep training tailored to the individual family.

Consultation with Tailored Plan & Support- €325
Typically the start of the process is for you to keep a comprehensive diary for your child for a number of days. Once you have completed the diary we will arrange a one-to-one consultation either online via video call or by phone. After the consultation we will have scheduled support calls, during office hours where we will monitor your child’s progress and Edel will answer any questions or concerns you have, for 4 weeks while implementing the plan.
Why do you need to keep a diary?
Sleep is a complex issue and what we do during the day and before bedtime are contributory factors to how we sleep at night. Analysis of your baby sleep diary is essential to creating a tailored baby sleep training solution.
Outcome
If you follow The Baby Sleep Academy Plan, the success rate is very high. After 4 weeks your child should be settling themselves to sleep within 20 minutes and sleeping for a minimum of 10 hours a night.
If your child’s sleep regresses within 6 months of our initial consultation, you can avail of a top up support call for €75.
You also have an option of extending the length of support for a further 2 weeks for €75.

Impact On Society
We’ve all experienced co-workers who are suffering sleep deprivation after the arrival of a newborn to their family. Typically we shrug it off, and even joke about it, in the knowledge that the issue will resolve itself in a relatively short time, typically a few months.
Unfortunately this is not the case for significant portion of parents who experience sleep issues with their babies and toddlers and live with the issues for years! As a professional, qualified paediatric baby sleep consultant I have seen some extreme cases where parents haven’t had a proper night’s sleep for four years.
Getting Through Sleep Deprivation
While these are the extreme cases, the majority of my clients have survived sleep deprivation due to baby sleep issues for 12 to 24 months. It is only then, when they are at the end of their tether and life is beginning to unravel that they actually take the step to seek professional advice from a paediatric sleep expert.
Typical side-effects of sleep deprivation in the workplace are lower productivity, poor decision making, conflicts with co-workers, reduced creativity, increased errors, and increased sick days due to a low immune system.
