What does it cost to hire an overnight baby sleep consultant in the South Coast region of New South Wales?
The cost of hiring an overnight baby sleep consultant varies depending on the level of support, but for in-home, overnight care, it is typically considered a premium service.
Raquel Tara’s comprehensive overnight sleep coaching programs start from $5,333 for a 4-night stay, including overnight support, daytime nap coaching, and follow-up support to help ensure the changes properly consolidate once the stay is complete.
These overnight stays are designed for families wanting experienced, hands-on overnight support carried out directly within the home while parents are able to step back and recover themselves.
Separate newborn overnight support packages are also available for younger babies and families wanting experienced overnight newborn care and early sleep shaping support during the newborn stage.
“You aren’t paying for ‘sleep advice’ —
you are paying for me to walk into your home and take the burden off your shoulders for 4 nights so you can wake up as yourself again.”
Are you worried your baby isn’t getting the sleep they need?
Can someone come to my house and help my baby sleep?
Yes. This is an in-home, overnight baby sleep service. Raquel stays overnight and works directly with your baby while you rest, guiding them toward sleeping through the night.
My baby won’t sleep — can someone sort this out?
If your baby is under 12 months, yes. This service is designed for families who are exhausted and want experienced, hands-on help in their home — not a plan to follow on their own.
Can you get my baby sleeping through the night?
Many families come to Raquel because their baby has never slept through the night. With consistent overnight support and a clear approach, most babies begin sleeping in longer, consolidated stretches — often within the stay.

What to Expect
Night 1
Once your bedtime rituals are complete, Raquel takes over settling.
She stays with your baby until they relax and fall asleep in the cot, learning what helps them settle enough to let sleep come.
Parents observe on the monitor, then rest overnight.
Night 2
With primary sleep associations removed, many babies begin to realise that sleep can happen without feeding, sucking, being held, or movement.
Settling is usually quicker, though temperament matters.
Night 3
Parents begin settling with Raquel’s real-time guidance.
Most babies settle within 30 minutes by this point, often sooner — but again, temperament matters.
Night 4
Sleep patterns usually begin consolidating more reliably overnight.
The focus shifts toward consistency, confidence, and refining any remaining settling or resettling challenges.
Two days of nap coaching are also integrated across the stay so daytime sleep supports overnight progress.
Night 5 (Full Integration Stay)
Five nights is recommended for older babies, babies with more established sleep associations or stronger protest patterns, and for families who are deeply exhausted and need a more complete reset themselves — what many parents describe as a “sleep holiday.”
Additional Daytime Support Included in the 5-Night Stay
The 5-night package also includes a third day of nap coaching and daytime support, allowing more time to refine daytime rhythms, troubleshoot nap challenges, and strengthen the overall carryover between day sleep and overnight sleep.
Please note: Due to the stronger protest patterns and more established sleep associations often seen in older babies, Raquel may not agree to taking on bookings for babies 9 months or older unless the family is booking the full 5-night stay.
Why do families find Raquel Tara’s Overnight Baby Sleep Support so different to other baby sleep services?
Most sleep consultants provide advice and leave you to carry it out.
Raquel works overnight in your home and implements the process directly with your baby.
That means:
- You are not left managing crying or guesswork
- The approach is adjusted in real time
- Your baby learns within their actual sleep environment
- You can rest while the work is being done
This is why results hold once the stay is complete.
“Raquel was the best decision I made in helping my baby sleep better and becoming a more confident parent.
We went from hourly wake-ups, short naps, and constant settling throughout the night, to a calm, predictable routine with no anxiety or stress. Our baby now sleeps amazingly — all on her own.
I only wish we had found her sooner.”

Does Raquel Tara’s approach involve “cry it out”?
The aim is always to keep crying to a minimum, while still allowing your baby to move through the natural process of falling asleep.
This is not about leaving a baby to cry alone. Raquel works with your baby overnight, supporting them in real time so they are not left to manage it on their own.
This approach is grounded in a respectful, RIE-informed lens of caregiving, where your baby is supported through the process rather than left to work through it alone.
Some babies — particularly older or more vocal babies — will still express themselves strongly as they adjust, but they are supported through this, not left to cry it out.

What’s the difference between a baby sleep consultant and an overnight sleep consultant?
An overnight baby sleep consultant is still a baby sleep consultant — but with a much more direct, hands-on role inside the home.
Most sleep consultants provide guidance for parents to implement themselves through calls, online support, or written plans.
Raquel Tara specialises in private overnight support carried out inside the family home across consecutive nights. Rather than leaving exhausted parents to manage the process alone, she works directly with the baby overnight, handling the settling and sleep transitions in real time while parents sleep.
For many South Coast families, this style of support feels especially practical. Families outside the major city centres often prefer a fully immersive overnight approach where the work is simply handled properly in one concentrated stay, rather than trying to push through months of exhaustion unsupported.
Families typically choose overnight sleep support when the situation has become unsustainable and they want experienced help physically present in the home — not simply advice to take away and implement later.
This is still baby sleep consulting — just delivered at a far more intensive and personalised level.

Raquel will be in touch by phone within 24 hours
