Who is Raquel Tara?
Raquel Tara is an Australian FIFO baby sleep consultant specialising in in-home overnight support. She works with families across Sydney, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Melbourne, Canberra, Newcastle and the Northern Rivers, providing personalised overnight care within the family home.

Why is Raquel Tara's Baby Sleep Service Different?
This is a premium, in-home overnight service. Raquel stays overnight and works directly with your baby, supporting and coaching sleep in real time while you rest. Each program is tailored to your baby and your home, with a clear and consistent approach that’s implemented where it matters — in your environment. This is not a virtual program or general advice — it is personalised, hands-on overnight support.
Who is Raquel Tara's Service For?
This service is for families with babies aged 0–12 months who are seeking experienced, in-home overnight support delivered at a high standard. It is suited to families who want a clear, consistent approach carried out by an experienced professional — rather than trying to implement it themselves.
About Raquel Tara
Raquel Tara trained as a Mothercraft Maternity Nanny and Night Nurse over 20 years ago and has since amassed hundreds of thousands of hours consulting with parents on baby sleep.
“I started to learn about babies and their parents in London back in the late nineties when I trained as a mothercraft night nanny. For more than 20 years I garnered first hand experience, and an intimate understanding of how exhausting overnight wakes can be for parents. Especially when it feels like a baby will only settle for you. Families are struggling with tricky bedtimes, babies fighting naps, and often feel conflicted because they want to move forward from contact napping or feeding to sleep. And all of these families are worried their baby isn’t getting the sleep they need…”
Raquel explains that a lot of these baby sleep issues can be resolved by helping your baby learn the skill of self settling, and resettling themselves to sleep through the night. The Raquel Tara approach to sleep gives you the tools to support your baby to relax enough to let sleep come.
Raquel is more than a baby sleep consultant; her 1:1 coaching programs are individually tailored to help you support your baby in a kind, gentle and supportive way, as well as giving you an understanding of both the practical and psychological aspects of baby sleep and development. It’s this additional coaching component not offered in alternative baby sleep programs that distinguishes Raquel’s work from the majority of baby sleep consultants out there who have limited long term experience working with families and their babies.
“To do this work, and do it well. To make an impact, and create a truly holistic outcome for families; experience matters. It matters an incredible amount. I’m quite often the last resort for these families. Because they have been given such flaky, bad and short lived solutions by inexperienced ‘professionals’. A baby sleep certification or nursing degree means nothing if you have limited experience with a multitude of families and babies over many years. I learned that the hard way when I started out as a night nanny”. Says Raquel.
Since becoming a Baby Sleep Consultant, Raquel Tara has helped elite athletes, celebrities, doctors, teachers, and coaches both-in Australia and abroad.
