About Kirsty

34 years old Speaks English
Temporary Availability until April 24th - Maternity Nurse & Night Nanny available for temporary bookings. I have been supporting babies and their families for over a decade by providing meaningful respite overnight. I provide breastfeeding support, gentle sleep coaching, and support families struggling with colic & reflux. I do not practice any form of Cry It Out, and am passionate about providing gentle, responsive care. For bottle feeding families I take care of all night feeds and make sure that all feeding equipment is washed and sterilized for the day ahead. For breastfeeding families, I bring baby to mum to feed during the night, then I burp and resettle between feeds. Typical shifts are 9pm - 6am, but this is flexible. Alternatively, skip the alarm and sleep until you wake naturally (so long as this is agreed in advance.) My book The Case For Cuddles - Gentle Parenting From A Biological, Evolutionary & Neurologically Developmental Standpoint is coming out later this year. My book is about empowering parents to trust in their own instincts, as they are the experts on their babies.
