Gentle Infant Sleep Support – From a Mum, Nurse & Infant Care Specialist Hi Families, I’m Jasmine – a Nurse with a Bachelor of Nursing and a Postgraduate Diploma in Child and Family Health Nursing (MCHN). I’m also a Certificate III qualified Early Childhood Educator and lucky mum to two beautiful boys (two under two)! Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked as a Private Nanny, Paediatric Nurse, and Childcare Educator, supporting families through the newborn stage and beyond. I’ve had the privilege of working in nursery rooms, supporting new parents in their homes (both live-in and live-out), and caring for children at the Royal Children’s Hospital. Now, I’m combining my professional expertise and personal experience to offer infant sleep consulting – with a focus on responsive, evidence-based, and nurturing strategies that support both babies and parents. Whether you’re navigating frequent night wakes, short naps, or just looking to establish gentle routines that work for your unique family, I’m here to help. My approach is holistic, non-judgmental and tailored to your baby’s temperament and your family’s individual needs. I offer: - Virtual or in-home consultations (depending on location) - Sleep education for expectant parents and newborns - Tips and tricks booklet - Gentle sleep shaping and support for infants 0–12 months - Day and night sleep assessments - Ongoing text/phone support packages If you’re feeling exhausted or overwhelmed, or want to be extra prepared before your new arrival, please reach out as I’d love to support you through your journey.

I am a bright and bubbly person with a mature mind and a nurturing heart. I offer extensive skills in housekeeping tasks such as cooking meals and baking, cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping and running errands. I am fully committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment for the children in my care. I’m also very fun when it needs to be fun time! I love activities and getting the kids outdoors and less on the screens. It’s important children hold onto their innocence like we did when we were young. Being young is a treasured thing that is slowly disappearing because of technology. I believe children need to use their imaginations for as long as they can, it’s a crucial part in life as we grow up.
