Emily Whalley

Emily Whalley is the founder and sleep consultant at Fox and The Moon Infant Sleep Services. Her aim is simple: to reassure and empower parents with their children’s sleep routines and to take a holistic and nurturing approach when assessing the sleep needs of babies, children and their parents and carers. She says “there is such a stigma attached to what sleep consultants do and we are saturated with advice from well meaning friends and family members to numerous accounts on social media.

I really want to show parents how small, gentle tweaks can make a big difference. This isn’t about traditional “sleep training”. Our society needs to understand that our children are not robots and just having more knowledge about sleep and normal infant behaviour is actually the key to nurturing happy little sleepers”
