I’m Keri, an Award-Winning Holistic Sleep Coach Helping Babies, Toddlers & Children Sleep Better

Baby sleep consultant Keri Rock, founder of Sleepy Mums, standing in a bright kitchen holding a cup of tea, representing her gentle and relatable approach to sleep coaching.

If your child isn’t sleeping and naps feel unpredictable, you’re likely exhausted, overwhelmed, and unsure where to turn next. Most parents I work with have already tried the blogs, the apps, and the well-meaning advice, yet still find themselves awake at 3 a.m. wondering what they are doing wrong.

Sleep is rarely a one-size-fits-all problem; every child and family is different. This is where personalised, professional sleep consultancy makes a real difference.

Before retraining as a specialist holistic sleep consultant, I spent years navigating the high-pressure corporate world. My career was thriving, but my home life was in crisis. Dealing with the triple-threat of colic, silent reflux, and a dairy allergy with my own child led to extreme, ongoing sleep deprivation that severely affected my mental health.

I realised that no amount of professional success could compensate for the feeling of failing at home. I left the corporate world to ensure other parents don't have to experience what I did.

I developed the R.E.S.T Method™ to bring structure without pressure, a responsive framework designed to help babies and young children sleep more peacefully while parents feel supported, informed, and confident in the decisions they are making.

At its core, the R.E.S.T Method™ focuses on:

  • understanding your baby, toddler or child’s cues and individual needs

  • building supportive rhythms for naps and nights

  • using calm, practical settling strategies

  • making small, consistent changes that lead to lasting improvement

Many families see meaningful progress within a couple of weeks, without compromising connection, comfort, or their parenting instincts.

I am trained as a certified baby and child sleep consultant, an antenatal and postnatal educator, and a holistic health coach, with additional training in supporting families with additional needs. I was also named Children’s Health Consultant of the Year for Wales by the Prestige Awards. More importantly, my role is to guide you with empathy, clarity, and reassurance through a season that can otherwise feel isolating and overwhelming.

This work is about more than sleep. It is about helping you feel capable again, enjoy calmer evenings, experience more predictable naps, and finally rest at night without constant worry.

If you would like to talk things through, the best place to start is with a free sleep discovery call. It is a relaxed, no-pressure conversation where we look at what is happening with your baby’s sleep and explore what support would be most helpful for your family.

  • “I can’t believe how quickly things changed. Before working with Keri, I was running on empty — I’d tried everything and felt like I was failing. Within a week of starting the Calm Nights Programme, my baby was settling calmly at bedtime, naps were predictable, and I finally had my evenings back. But more than that, I felt like myself again. Keri’s approach is so gentle, reassuring, and easy to follow — she truly understands how to support both babies and mums. The REST Method™ changed everything for our family.”

    - Sophie, Mum to Alfie 7 months

  • “I’d read every book, followed every routine, and still nothing worked. I was exhausted and doubting myself. From our very first call, Keri made me feel calm and capable again. Her REST Method™ just made sense — gentle, structured, and totally in tune with my baby. Within two weeks, my little one was sleeping through the night and I finally felt in control. I only wish I’d found her sooner.”

    - Hannah, mum to 6-month-old Leo

  • “After months of perfect sleep, our toddler suddenly started waking constantly and bedtime became a battle. I felt like we’d lost all progress. Keri’s calm, reassuring guidance helped us reset in such a positive way. Her REST Method™ worked beautifully for a toddler too — within a fortnight, our evenings were peaceful again. She gave us the tools and the confidence to keep it that way.”

    -Amelia, Mum to two year old Poppy

  • “I didn’t realise how much sleep deprivation was affecting every part of my life — my mood, my marriage, my bond with my baby. Working with Keri was genuinely life-changing. Her Calm Nights Programme was gentle but effective, and the support I felt from her was incredible. The REST Method™ not only transformed our baby’s sleep — it gave me back the joy of motherhood.”
