Hello, I'm Claire!
I'm the founder of “Sleep by Claire," a qualified Baby and Infant Sleep Consultant and a Mum. My background includes childcare qualifications, experience as a nanny in Edinburgh and training in Behaviour and Emotion Coaching.
After experiencing sleep deprivation with my own son and searching for solutions, I became a Certified Baby and Infant Sleep Consultant.
This has helped me understand the science behind sleep, temperaments, wake windows and a whole lot more to ensure that my son gets the best sleep possible as it takes the guesswork out of naps and bedtime struggles.
If this is something you are going through - I would love to help you all get a peaceful night's sleep.The techniques and information I give are designed to assist with the care of babies and infants. Methods for gently settling your babies to sleep will help to make the early days of parenting more manageable.
I can help with early wakings, re-settling and help promote a calm and healthy association with sleep. None of my methods include cry it out, instead we know that babies cry to communicate and to respond with love and care will provide a secure and healthy attachment. This will promote a positive association to sleep.
You can expect to:
-
Observe changes in your babies sleep patterns and associations
-
Follow your instincts by loving and supporting your baby to sleep
-
Feel confident with the new information and support
-
Understand your baby's sleep
I will provide:
-
Practical advice tailored to your situation
-
Work with your child’s development and stage
-
Ongoing encouragement
-
Guidance towards achieving a more restful sleep for both parents and baby
Thank you, Claire, for giving us the tools—and the sleep!—we so badly needed.

The most popular package! We will discuss by call or in person ( Edinburgh only) your child’s sleep concerns. Followed by me asking lots of questions to get to know your child things like sleep set up, wake windows, food intake and more to get a full picture so that I can help.

“Thanks so much for all your advice and tips to help improve Marnie’s sleep. We really appreciate you taking the time to listen to our challenges and provide a tailored sleep plan. The practical advice that you offered, was supported by an approach that we were comfortable with. The whole process felt manageable and gentle and knowing you were on hand to answer any questions was reassuring. Implementing the plan did take hard work from our side but we are in better place with Marnie’s sleep patterns.”

Working with Claire on sleep training our 6-month-old little boy was one of the best decisions I've made. From the very beginning, her calm, supportive approach and clear communication made all the difference. I never once felt judged or like I was doing anything wrong—just reassured and guided in a way that felt right for us.One of the most significant moments in our journey was when my husband was able to put our baby to sleep confidently—something we never thought possible just weeks earlier. That’s when I knew things had truly changed.Claire came into our lives at exactly the right time. I was navigating the exhaustion of a new baby that would only sleep on me while also dealing with the illness and loss of a loved one. Getting quality sleep became essential, not just for my baby, but for my own well-being. I’m incredibly grateful for her expertise and the care she showed during such a vulnerable time.Thank you, Claire, for giving us the tools—and the sleep!—we so badly needed.”
