Meet Shira...
Birth Doula | Baby & Child Sleep Consultant | Mum of Three

Working with babies, children and families has been a passion of mine for many years.

Before becoming a sleep consultant and doula, I  spent 12 years working as a childcare educator, including a special focus on teaching music.

Over the years, I found myself drawn to supporting parents through some of the most challenging parts of early parenthood. The exhausted newborn days. The endless night waking. The toddler who suddenly refuses to sleep. The uncertainty that comes with wondering, “Am I doing this right?”

I wanted to be able to support families not just with sleep, but from the very beginning.

My approach

I don’t believe there is one right way to birth, parent or help a child sleep.

Every family is different, and my role is to listen first, understand what matters to you and then provide practical, personalised support that aligns with your goals and parenting style.

As a birth doula, I provide emotional, practical and informational support throughout pregnancy, birth and the early postpartum period.

As an infant and child sleep consultant, I help families navigate everything from newborn sleep and routines through to naps, night waking, early rising, settling and toddler sleep.

My approach is supportive, realistic and completely individualised.

Why families choose to work with me

✔️ Personalised support rather than a one-size-fits-all approach

✔️ Practical advice that works in real family life

✔️ Respect for your parenting choices

✔️ Support and reassurance when you need it most

✔️ Experience working with babies, toddlers and young children

​

Most importantly, I want you to feel heard, supported and confident.

Whether you’re preparing to meet your baby or desperately hoping for a better night’s sleep, I’d love to support you.
