Hi, I’m Fran — mum of two and a certified sleep consultant.
Before I trained as an SC, I went into my first newborn stage thinking, “I won’t sleep much, and I should sleep when the baby sleeps.” That was about the extent of my plan. Two weeks in, between breastfeeding, postpartum recovery, and bone-deep exhaustion, I was deep in the trenches and even deeper in conflicting advice. One blog said one thing, an Instagram post said the opposite, and I felt more confused than ever.
Looking back, my daughter wasn’t a “bad sleeper”. She was doing normal newborn things, and I simply didn’t know what normal looked like. Second time around, with more knowledge and confidence, everything felt calmer. That shift is why I created the Fourth Trimester Sleep Call — to give expecting and new parents clarity about what is normal, what actually helps, and what you can gently put in place from day one.
This is not about strict routines or one-size-fits-all rules. It is about education, support, and realistic, kind foundations for your baby and your family.
What the Fourth Trimester Sleep Call is
A 1-hour, personalised consultation for expecting parents or those in the newborn trenches who want to understand newborn sleep and feel confident responding to it. We unpack what the first 12 weeks really look like, why sleep can feel so up and down, and how to create a calming rhythm that works for your baby’s age, temperament, and your lifestyle.
You can bring all your questions, or I can lead the way. Either approach ends with you feeling grounded, informed, and with one less thing to Google at 2am.
