The Gentle Sleep Teacher
Wouldn’t you feel more confident knowing your baby’s sleep coach is not only a trained educator, but also a calm, hands-on dad who’s been in your shoes?
Feeling like there’s no light at the end of the tunnel?
I’ve been there—staring at the clock at 3am, wondering if things will ever get better. As a dad and a primary school teacher, I thought I was prepared… but when my daughter stopped sleeping, our whole world turned upside down.
Sleep struggles can affect every part of your life—your mood, your patience, your relationships, even how connected you feel to your baby. That’s why I became a certified sleep consultant. Not to offer a one-size-fits-all solution, but to gently guide families like yours toward peaceful nights—without leaving your baby to cry alone.
If you’re feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, I want you to know this: things can change. I’m here to support you with empathy, expertise, and a bespoke plan that fits your family.
Let’s help your little one sleep soundly—and bring calm back to your home.
About Me
Hi, I am Leander, OCN accredited Sleep Consultant, the founder of The Gentle Sleep Teacher—and most importantly, a proud dad to my little girl.
With a decade of experience as a primary school teacher, I’ve spent my career supporting children and families through some of their most important developmental stages. But it wasn’t until I became a parent myself that I truly understood how deeply sleep (or lack of it!) impacts the whole family. This is the reason that I qualified as a Sleep Consultant.
Like many parents, my wife and I faced our own challenges with sleep during our daughter’s early months. Navigating those restless nights gave me first-hand insight into just how overwhelming and emotional the journey can be—and how vital a gentle, responsive approach is to building healthy sleep habits that last.
At The Gentle Sleep Teacher, my goal is to support families with practical, compassionate guidance tailored to their child’s unique temperament and needs. I combine gentle strategies with a deep respect for each family’s values, routines, and instincts—because every child is different, and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to sleep.
Whether you're navigating frequent night wakings, short naps, or bedtime battles, I’m here to help you find calm, confidence, and most importantly—rest.
Support Packages
Every family is unique, and so is every child’s sleep journey. That’s why I offer a bespoke sleep support package to meet your specific needs and goals. Whether you're looking for personalized guidance on bedtime routines, managing night wakings, or helping your little one develop healthy sleep habits, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
After our initial discussion, I will create the sleep plan for your little one following a gentle sleep method.
