ABOUT DOZE
We have years of experience working with tired families, and before that – years of experience of being sleep deprived ourselves!

Chloe’s Story
My journey to having Theo wasn’t an easy one. It involved multiple doctors’ visits, invasive tests, and eventually a successful round of IVF. Whilst I knew I wouldn’t find parenting ‘easy’, I did perhaps hope that my battle to have Theo would give me strength during the difficult times.
Well, that didn’t happen! The reality of having a baby hit me like a tonne of bricks. The first few months of his life were a daily struggle. I battled with breastfeeding, he screamed all day every day, and sleep was almost non-existent.
And so began my obsession with all things sleep. I logged everything and spent hours trying to spot patterns. I scoured the internet, but all the information contradicted itself.
Then I came across the Holistic Sleep Coaching Program – an accredited OCN Level 6 Qualification. This was a game-changer: not only could I become a qualified sleep coach – but I might be able to fix my own baby’s sleep in the meantime!
Theo’s sleep dramatically improved once I understood what was underlying his issues. And my stress levels dramatically dropped once I realised how a lot of what I was experiencing was normal.
The Doze Ethos
We’ve come a long way over the past few years. We are now a team of experienced, Holistic Sleep Coaches – and between us we have years of experience working with hundreds of families. When you work with one of us, we will always offer…
Reassurance about what’s normal.
If you spend one minute on the internet, you’ll come across a pile of unrealistic expectations for babies’ sleep. When in fact, it really is quite normal for babies to struggle with their sleep. Letting go of unrealistic expectations can make a huge difference!
Sleep made simple.
At the heart of it, sleep follows quite a logical pattern. Our children can only sleep a certain number of hours, and the best way to create a routine is to base it off these needs. You’ll never get a generic routine off us, and we also won’t terrify you with talk of overtiredness.
Practical and RESPONSIVE advice.
We have helped families with every sleep issue under the sun, including early rising, split nights, bedtime battles, frequent wakes, moving away from bed sharing and night weaning. All without ever leaving a baby to cry alone.
So, if you are looking for a straightforward and reassuring approach to sleep – you have come to the right place. We would love to work with you to understand your child and come up with a plan to get you all a bit more sleep!

Sarah
Hi, I’m Sarah, mother of two and founder of Mother Of, with over 15 years experience working with children and their families in a professional and caring capacity.
I am a Sleep Coach, a Potty Training Consultant and Baby Massage Teacher. I live in Dublin, Ireland with my husband and our two children and having been working as a Sleep Coach for 2 years.
I always had an interest in infant sleep, but when I had my son in 2020, and he wasn’t “the baby in the book”, it caused me a huge amount of upset and anxiety, I read every book and article I could find on infant sleep and realised that very few babies actually fit into this narrative of 12 hour nights and massive amounts of day
sleep, I didn’t want another parent to feel how I felt and so I trained to be a Sleep Coach for children from 0 to 6 years old.
In the last 6 months I have qualified as a Potty Training Consultant also, working with children from 2 to 5 years old. In all areas of my work, there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach, I will work closely with you and your family and provide you with a plan which is evidence based and ever adapting as your child grows and develops.


Nadia
Hi, I’m Nadia! My passion for all things sleep started when my twin girls were born. They were lockdown babies so myself and my Wife spent a lot of time at home (like everyone else!) and while
they were cat napping, we searched for answers and potential reasons why they just didn’t like to sleep. I found this so frustrating as everything I read didn’t align with my parenting values and I knew there had to be another way to support my girls to sleep so we could all sleep so much better.
I decided to study towards a Sleep Consultant CPD accreditation so that I could not only help my own children but support other families who felt like I did.
Now, I have years of experience working with sleep deprived families, supporting them towards better sleep. I love to share the knowledge that helped me with my own children and design innovative plans that suit the whole family.
When I’m not working with families I love being with my own family on muddy puddle walks, day trips and snuggling together for movie nights. I’m a keen podcaster listener, love
to be in the garden and I am a big fan of Elvis!

What it’s like working with US?
Chloe is bloody brilliant! Hands down the best sleep support given and also made a first time mum feel like she wasn’t doing everything wrong! Thank you for the support given to us, I am also 100% sure as little ones sleep needs change I’ll be getting back in touch. We’ve had much more successful restful nights from baby since the recommendations from Chloe, many very easy wins, you saved my sanity! You could call me biased as I have been a fan girl of Chloe since I found Doze Instagram account but I will be forever grateful for your help and deciphering baby sleep maths! 😂❤️Posted on Google

What can I say? We went from fighting to get our baby to sleep, only for him to wake up (on average) 10 times a night. Working with Chloe this quickly dropped. We no longer have the long fights to bed and he only wakes up 2-3 times a night (usually). It has quite literally changed our lives. Chloe was an absolute delight to deal with. She was flexible, honest, attentive and really knows her stuff.Posted on Google

10/10 no notes! Nadia has been so supportive and kind. We booked a free consultation while having a tricky time with our baby’s sleep after I had seen Doze’s instagram page and already felt that their way of doing things would be a good fit for our family. Nadia was so helpful, even just in that short chat - if anyone is on the fence about seeking some help with their little one’s sleep, book the free consultation - you absolutely will not regret it. We felt so supported throughout and our baby’s sleep has absolutely improved. Naps and bed times are really easy now and for us, it was really just about tweaking his schedule. He never napped for more than 35 minutes and now, he has an hour every afternoon (amongst other naps) with no fuss. There was no need for any “cry it out” at all. Nadia was also really helpful with other tips on things like leaky nappies in the night which had been a headache for us for a while. Nadia was also really honest with us about which package might be best for us, rather than simply trying to sell the most expensive package. That being said, I wouldn’t hesitate in buying an add on at some stage if I felt we would benefit from it. Initially, my husband was a little hesitant in engaging any sleep coach. He now describes it as “the absolute best thing we have spent money on” for our baby. Overall, fantastic service and great results!Posted on Google

We can’t thank Chloe enough for going above and beyond to help us with our little one’s sleep. He was a really tricky customer, and even though things weren’t straightforward Chloe stuck with us to keep making headway with his sleep and now things are so much improved. I had so many questions throughout which she always patiently answered and she was really thoughtful and caring when I was finding the process difficult or finding myself indecisive about which approach to take. That for me was key, that Chloe was flexible in her approach, thoughtful, direct and always backed up her recommendations with evidence and a strategic approach to making change. She was excellent, and a sound voice in a world of very confused advice for parents!Posted on Google

I would highly recommend Chloe and Doze sleep coaching. My son was a Velcro baby from day 1 and in order to survive the first few months we ended up co sleeping and contact napping (things I thought I would never do pre baby)!! By 7 months we could only get him to sleep in the sling or feeding to sleep and lying with him and he was waking up 8 times a night. I was exhausted and at breaking point but I didn’t feel comfortable doing traditional sleep training methods. I felt overwhelmed by all the changes we needed to make but Chloe was able to outline realistic goals for us and then break it down into a clear plan and she made sure that we felt comfortable with each step. I always felt well informed and in control and Chloe was there at each step to support and advise us while also being incredibly patient! My son is low sleep needs and he is now on routine that works for him and us. We are able to put him down on his floorbed for naps and bedtime and just sit beside him while he falls asleep. He wakes 2-3 times a night and co sleeps for half the night. I have my evenings back (and my sanity) and I am getting much more sleep! Chloe always offered a number of options/methods and always took our son’s temperament and our parenting style into account so that the goals we were aiming for were realistic and achievable for us. It honestly didn’t feel like we were making any changes at all because it was always at our pace and she made sure it was something we were comfortable with. There were of course some tears but we were always able to respond to him and comfort him. If you want to make some real changes to sleep while also being responsive I would highly recommend Chloe and her team!Posted on Google

Nadia at Doze totally transformed our baby’s sleep. We went from an average of 4 wakes every night for over a year, to him settling happily in his cot with one wake a night if that. And all with us still being fully responsive and never having to leave him to cry, which was really important to us. Nadia was really empathetic and supportive and we are so grateful. Would recommend to anyone who needs a change, but knows they want to go about it sensitively. Thank you Nadia!Posted on Google

I can’t recommend Chloe and Doze highly enough!! We initially got in touch when my little boy was 8 months old and having massive split nights and needed to be held for hours at a time to stay asleep. Chloe helped us to create a personalised, realistic and manageable routine that worked with his (very!!) low sleep needs and gently supported independent sleep. We got back in touch at 14 months for support with ditching the dummy which was a much smoother transition than I expected and she also helped adjust our routine to support the drop in sleep needs that often comes in toddlerhood. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach back out to Chloe if we needed support again in the future. If you are on the fence about reaching out for support let this be your sign to do it! :)Posted on Google

We worked with Chloe to get support with our 13 month old daughter’s sleep, and it has honestly been life-changing. Before starting, our daughter was waking 5-7 times a night and we needed to be stood up and rock her back to sleep, sometimes for hours on end. My back felt like it was breaking, we were completely exhausted, and we knew something had to change. She was also feeding to sleep, which we knew wanted to move away from but had no idea where to start. From the very first conversation, Chloe was understanding, supportive, and helped us find a routine that felt realistic and truly suited our family. Within days we saw improvements, and by the end of our time working together we no longer needed to rock our daughter to sleep at all. She can now settle with cuddles, patting or shhh’ing while we’re sitting, something that felt impossible before! Her night wakes have reduced to mostly none, and we no longer feed during the night or to sleep. The change in our daughter has been great as her mood is better, she’s more rested, and we feel human again. We are so grateful for the guidance and support. Working with Chloe has genuinely transformed our nights. Highly recommend!Posted on Google

Thank goodness for Chloe - I cannot recommend her enough! We just couldn't get our 8 month old son's routine right to allow for him to sleep through the night and give us all the rest we needed. We knew he had low sleep needs, but despite cutting back on day sleep quite a bit over time and making sure we had a large window between final nap and bedtime, we just weren't getting anywhere. Following a rather unsettled 8 months of multiple issues, illnesses and hospital stays, we were absolutely exhausted and couldn't workout his specific 24hr sleep needs as it varied so much. We needed help and fast, so booked a Complete Support Package with Doze. Enter Chloe... following completion of an extensive questionnaire and sleep log, she put an initial plan in place. She immediately moved our son from three naps to two, helped us wean him off his night time bottle and then worked with us on getting the routine right whilst coaching us to gently move away from assisted wakes. Our son had been able to self-settle since he was 4 months old, but any issue (such as illness and teething) where he needed a bit of extra help to re-settle for a period of time, and he would would revert back to relying on that additional support for every wake! Chloe guided us through how to support him to become confident in self-settling again, and it worked really quickly! It was a completely gentle process and I was with him the entire time. There was always crying whilst he got used to the change, but by the second night the wakes were a few minutes long compared to us rocking him for anywhere between 10 minutes and an hour on each wake - and of those few minutes, it would only be 30 seconds or so of crying. The whole process of getting his routine right was a long one due to him being so sensitive to sleep pressure, and trying to balance that with his low sleep needs, but Chloe continued to work with us until she cracked his 24hour sleep needs and routine (with a pause in the middle when he had a cold) - and we now have a child who sleeps through from 8pm-6am. We never thought it possible, but he doesn't need us at all during the night anymore, even if he does wake briefly. This is a massive transformation for us and we cannot thank Chloe enough! We would 1000% recommend Doze to anyone who needs help with their baby's sleep and who wants to make a change for the better!Posted on Google

I can’t rave about Chloe enough! Long review but hopefully helps to show methods used! We did a discovery call with Chloe who was amazing at talking through any problems we were having and her thoughts of what we could do to help, and Chloe was best at talking through the options we had and making sure we were happy to make changes (and it was for us not anyone else as there is a lot of pressure for new mum’s to stop feeding to sleep!!). Our little one was 7m old at the time and had been a unicorn baby up until 6 months or so where she started to wake up any time from 0-7 times a night, transfers were super tricky and at this moment in time I (mum) had been the only one who’d been able to do bedtime. Naps were motion or FTS, and bedtime was always FTS. I did buy Chloe’s 4-18m guide to try and do things myself, and worked out my LO’s sleep needs as 12.5 hours. We did get slightly better days and nights but still had some good and bad days, but I managed to follow the gentle way to get non contact naps and had my LO napping NEXT to me vs on me and that was amazing!! We still had up and down sleep so we decided we needed a bit more support so we went for the complete package. We had an abroad holiday, hand, foot and mouth, another virus, overnight trips to London and grandparents houses and even still, within 3 weeks our LO was sleeping through the night from 8:30-6:45!! We did have a few hiccups on the way, and found out our LO only needs 11.5 hours sleep in 24 (😭), and since we changed to follow that routine we had such great success! Chloe was gentle and patient whilst we moved towards independent sleep in her cot and our LO took to it really well, we did have tears and a few difficult night wakes to start with (and not after we changed to 11.5 hours) but even from night 1, our LO only took 15 mins to fall asleep with the crying (and that was only I am not understanding change crying). I feel so much happier now both me and my husband can alternate bedtimes, and it takes less than 5 minutes now without ANY tears, do a bedtime routine and then we put her sleeping bag on, put her in her cot, say good night and leave the room and she’s asleep within 30s!! She has now learnt to wave, so in the mornings when we wake her she wave hello which is the cutest thing ever!! I would highly recommend working with Chloe and her team, for a brilliant responsive mentor to get your LO to sleep independently.Posted on Google
