Mothercraft for Babies

As someone who has made use of Mothercraft for Babies no less than four times over the past year or so, I could not recommend them enough! They have always been prompt to respond and Beth herself provides practical direction with a great, no nonsense but supportive approach. She also goes above and beyond to follow through with your case.

I have also had Nurse Sonia come out to help twice and it has been an absolute life saver. Sonia has a beautiful calm approach and I have been awe struck with her magic sleep touch! More importantly, the settling techniques she showed me completely changed the sleep game for me and my baby and set us up on a self soothing path which I would have been lost without.

Could not recommend highly enough, worth every cent!

Beth has been a huge support over the past year with my son’s health issues and I could not recommend her highly enough. She provided much needed helped with sleep and settling issues when we couldn’t see straight from sleep deprivation. Always sensible, always kind and oh so patient. She makes sure the whole family is considered when providing support and you never feel left alone.

When we confronted medical issues and needed referral options, Beth went above and beyond to ensure we got the help we needed. She truly cares and provides a service I haven’t come across before.

I contacted Beth in a desperate need to help with my 8 month old son’s day and night sleep. My son’s night sleep was all over the place. He would get up within 45 mins of putting him down and at times would be 5 times before 10pm and 6-8 times throughout the night. He was very much dependent on the dummy.
We had a 45 min phone call on a Tuesday and Beth was quickly able to go through our routine and point out areas of improvement and new settling techniques to ensure his sleep could improve with time. That Wednesday we commenced this new routine, and of course the first day was hard.
But by Thursday he was no longer using the dummy for his day sleep and by Friday night we decided to ditch the dummy.

I contacted beth at Mothercraft for Babies when our baby was 2 months old and took over an hour to get to sleep by rocking and bouncing him and he would only sleep for 30mins at a time during the day. I spoke to Beth over the phone who was compassionate and provided valuable advice and she recommended a lovely sleep consultant, Jackie for an in home consultation.

Highly recommend Mothercraft to all parents having issues with their little ones. I organised 2 phone consults with Beth after having an initial phone consult. She was extremely knowledgeable and insightful.
My 8 month old baby boy was having sleep issues and was constantly needing reassurance throughout the night. Beth was able to figure out exactly what he needed and helped map out a plan with an end goal in focus! The second phone consultation was fantastic for “tweaking” the plan and highly recommend the second consult. My sons sleeping patterns improved immediately, and has been getting better every night for the last week.
Thank you Beth! You have improved our quality of life. We are very grateful to have found you. read more

I wanted to write to you to say a massive thank you to Mothercraft for Babies and especially your nurse Sonia.

Sonia came to visit me and my little one when Sierra was 8 weeks old in mid January and I was having a lot of trouble getting her to sleep and dealing with her wind. Sonia was absolutely wonderful. She was a wealth of information and knowledge, and was particularly patient and kind.

Together we worked on a sleep and settling routine and she gave me a series of massages to do daily to help her colic.

Sierra is now 4.5 months old and is an incredible sleeper. Both my husband and I stuck steadfast to the settling plan and after just a couple of weeks, Sierra began to just take her dummy and put herself to sleep immediately for both day and night sleeps. She wakes and resettles herself whenever she needs to and she sleeps 12 hours overnight which she started doing at 9 weeks.

Ultimately, I needed to stop breastfeeding Sierra as my breastmilk was the cause of her severe and painful wind but I have continued the massage twice daily and together with the formula she no longer suffers any pain from her wind. The massage routine I was taught was key in alleviating a large portion of her wind pain.

I meant to write this weeks ago, but as you know life seems to run away with you when you have a baby.

Please do send my thanks to Sonia. Your service is such an incredible help to those of us who need a little helping hand.
