A NOTE FROM LENA:
“Kathryn is a wonderful addition to our team! She’s a certified baby and infant sleep consultant and is taking Waikato by storm!
Kathryn has a ‘knack’ for thinking outside the square, her experience, kind and down to earth nature means nothing will be overlooked. With Kathryn, you’ll be in very good hands”
Hi I’m Kathryn, Baby Sleep Consultant with Baby & Beyond in the Waikato.
I have a natural love of working with children and their families. My passion for this lead me down a path of training and working as a nanny with many different families and countries all over the world.
Coming back to the Waikato and working as a parenting facilitator I then became a mother of three, now teenagers. Having a career as a certified sleep consultant seemed the next natural progression and one I am loving.
Having worked for more than 20 years, almost as an extended member of other families, I have developed the ability to provide sensitive, caring, and timely support and also an intuition that allows me to respond to the needs of the family in a respectful manner.
Drawing on my experience as a mother and my training as a sleep consultant, plus the ongoing mentoring from Lena and Baby & Beyond, I can compassionately support families to regain and sustain the confidence they need to tackle the challenges that parenting brings. I can offer information and guidance towards better sleeping habits for your family that will allow your child to learn to sleep independently, plus followup support that will help continue to maintain positive baby sleep patterns.
I am excited to be working as part of the Baby & Beyond team as I know our knowledge and skill set can only help to guide families through what can potentially be a very rewarding journey.
Look what our clients have been saying about Kathryn…
“I struggle to express my gratitude to Kathryn for the way she’s changed our lives.
Our three month old’s sleeping habits were a shambles, day and night. He was waking at all sorts of odd hours, including every two to three hours at night. We had no routine during the day but desperately wanted one. I was feeding him to sleep, or walking him, or driving him – anything that might work. He was grumpy, constantly overtired, and not the happy little boy we knew he could be. I was in tears some days from the sleep deprivation and barely functioning.
A month after Kathryn came to visit, he is a little rockstar. He self settles for all naps, which happen at the same times every day. He wakes up happy and well rested and is starting to sleep through the night. The best part is, he is reliable – I know when I put him down he will be asleep in minutes, and I know what times he will be awake so I can plan my life and not wonder if he’s going to lose it when we are out because I know he’s rested.
It is hands down the best money we’ve ever spent. I am a better mother, wife and person for it. I was so skeptical but I was desperate and I’m so glad I did it. What an absolute game changer. I still can’t believe it has worked so well!” Vicky – Taupo
