About Me

Hi, I'm Louise Morelli

It is such a privilege to be a sleep coach. I absolutely love what I do and, most of all, I love seeing the positive difference better sleep can make to the lives of tired families.

As a mum myself, I understand first-hand the exhaustion that comes with having a new baby. Those early days can leave you feeling like a complete zombie (or, as I like to say, a mombie!). When you are desperately tired, everything can feel harder. This is why I have such a passion for baby and child sleep and for helping parents find their way back to restful nights and happier days.

I am fully certified and qualified to work with babies and children from newborn through to five years old, and I have had the pleasure of supporting families all over the world.

My approach is holistic, gentle and completely personalised. Every baby is different, and every family has its own needs, dynamics and circumstances. I take into account your child’s temperament, your parenting style and the needs of the whole family to create a sleep plan that feels right for you.

I have helped many families regain their precious sleep, and I am there to support, guide and encourage you every step of the way. Seeing parents celebrate their successes and watching their little ones become happier, more rested sleepers is incredibly rewarding. You can read what some of the families I have worked with have to say on my testimonials page.

Ultimately, my goal is simple: to help create rested babies and rested parents.

Sleep deprivation can affect every area of family life. When everyone is getting the sleep they need, there is more energy, patience and enjoyment for all those precious moments that make family life so special.

Better sleep really can change everything – and helping you discover that is the gift I would love to give you.

Frequently asked questions

So how does the process work?

Is my child the right age for sleep training?

Following our 15 minute consultation call, the first step is that I will send you a detailed questionnaire which will ask about all aspects of your child’s sleep, feeding and daily life. I will often also ask for a sleep and activity log to be completed by the parents so I can see what is going on. From this I will start work on your child’s personalised sleep assessment and plan. Sometimes I’ll give parents a quick call to ask a few more questions if I need further clarification on certain points. The completed assessment will be emailed to the parents and the period of support will start (unless a basic plan option is chosen). This period usually lasts for 2-3 weeks although it may last longer in certain cases. During this time I will check in regularly to ensure everything is going to plan and amend the plan if necessary

Is my child the right age for sleep training?

I work with babies and children from four weeks right up to the fifth birthday. However for newborn babies under four months of age this is less structured. My approach to newborn sleep is super gentle and and this is due to a newborn baby having immature sleep biorhythms which are still developing. I do however look at all aspects of newborn sleep such as sleep environment, sleep props, age appropriate awake time, feeding and growth. I also look at using an appropriate settling technique to start getting improvement in terms of sleep and to help develop lifelong healthy sleep habits.

Is this guaranteed to work?

What sort of sleep package is right for us?

There is no 100% guarantee that my suggested plan and methods will work as each baby or toddler is different, every family situation is different and success depends on parents being consistent with the plan. However if parents are consistent then there will definitely be big improvements and in most cases a resolution of problems. I've had success so far with all my client families who have followed their sleep plan!

What sort of sleep package is right for us?

It all depends on your preferred level of support and mode of communication. Some parents just want clarification on what they should be doing and then are happy to go it alone (basic package). The majority of parents would like regular check ins with me and in truth this method gives much better results as I’m able to see any problems that arise or tweaks that need to be made. My ‘gold standard’ package involves me visiting your home to assess the sleep environment and talk through problems and solutions with parents. I will also demonstrate settling methods and ensure all parts of the plan are implemented properly.

If you still need help with deciding please feel free to contact me as I can talk you through each option and help with your decision.

I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to discuss your sleep situation. Here, I can offer some guidance and help understand your and your child's sleep needs. Based on this, I will recommend which package could be best for you and your little one. Remember, I will be here to guide you through the process and cheer you on along the way!

I don't live in Monaco. How will you conduct a consult?

For those in Monaco and along the Cote d’Azur I will be able to organise an in-house consultation with you.

For all other clients I can easily do face to face consultations via Skype/Facetime or alternatively we can chat via telephone/Skype/WhatsApp audio/Viber/Messenger audio.

I have twins. Can you work with them?

I don't live in Monaco. How will you conduct a consult?

Yes, absolutely!

I have lots of experience of working with twins.

If you require a sleep assessment for just one or for both twins, the price is exactly the same.
