The Full Story
Hi, I’m Emma — founder of Little Yawns Sleep Co, internationally certified infant and toddler sleep consultant, and mum to three (including our newest arrival on the way!). With a background in primary teaching and over nine years of experience working with children, I’ve always been passionate about helping little ones thrive — and supporting the parents raising them.
When I became a first-time mum to Lucy, I found myself overwhelmed by all the conflicting sleep advice out there. As a Type A personality, I searched for structure and answers—but what I really needed was gentle guidance and reassurance. One calm, supportive call with a sleep consultant completely shifted things for us. That experience planted the seed for Little Yawns.
At Little Yawns Sleep Co, we know that no two babies—or families—are the same. In a world flooded with one-size-fits-all advice, we offer something different: science-backed, flexible sleep support that truly meets families where they’re at.
Our training is rooted in the latest research around infant sleep, development, and emotional wellbeing. Combined with real-world parenting experience, we deliver practical strategies that are effective, respectful, and tailored to you.
We support all parenting styles, offering a full spectrum of sleep approaches—from the most gentle, responsive methods to more structured, conventional ones—depending on your child’s needs and your personal comfort. Whether you're a contact-napping, co-sleeping parent or looking to encourage more independent sleep, we’re here to help—without pressure or judgement.
Little Yawns has grown from supporting friends and family to becoming a trusted space where parents feel safe asking the "dumb questions" (hint: they’re not dumb at all). Every plan we create is 100% personalised—no rigid routines, no quick-fix templates. And we don’t just hand you a plan and walk away. We’re here to cheer you on, troubleshoot tough patches, and celebrate every win along the way.
Because better sleep shouldn’t come at the cost of your values—and your parenting journey deserves support that’s as nurturing as it is practical.
