In-Home Overnight Baby Sleep Training Sydney

My girl had bad reflux and was relying on sucking to sleep with the dummy or being fed to sleep which was causing overfeeding and stomach issues. She was waking pretty much every hour from midnight onwards. Now after 3 nights with Raquel, we have one feed or none every night. She really is Mary Poppins!!

4–5 Night Baby Sleep Coaching + 14 Days Follow Up Support

Most families find that meaningful, lasting improvements in sleep require several days of consistency. For this reason, Raquel works with families over 4–5 nights of in-home overnight support, allowing changes to be established, repeated, and integrated before parents take over.

This is a comprehensive sleep coaching program, including preparation, in-home support, and follow-up guidance.

We cannot recommend Raquel Tara highly enough, & would happily pay 3 times what she is currently charging for her services, knowledge & support. The results we have experienced, and the skills we have learnt are more than we could ever have hoped for.

How to Decide Between 4 or 5 Nights

The 4-night program is a complete sleep integration program, where settling is assessed and adjusted in real time based on your baby’s responses, age, temperament, and current sleep associations.

The 5-night program allows for additional in-home support, more repetition, and further consolidation before parents take over.

Families who choose 5 nights are typically wanting more time for changes to fully embed before Raquel leaves.

Raquel helped improve baby’s feeding and made us so confident in listening to what baby is trying to communicate and how we approach parenting. She is definitely a lot more than just a sleep consultant. Book her in now! She will change your life. She has changed ours and we are so thankful!

Newborn to Sleeping Through Coaching & Respite Program

Raquel’s Newborn to Sleeping Through Program is for families who want that night-nanny level of support in the early weeks, without relying on it long term. She comes in at the start to stabilise sleep and recovery, then guides families week by week so their baby naturally works toward sleeping through by around 12–16 weeks.

We hired Raquel as our night nurse to care for our newborn twins overnight for the first months of their lives. Raquel was so professional & knowledgeable about all aspects of infant care, and following her guidance, both babies were self settling & sleeping through by 5 months. We feel so lucky to to have had you support us, Raquel. Thank you!

How the Newborn Program Works

This program is designed around the natural developmental stages of newborn sleep.

Stage One: Foundations & Recovery

The program begins with five nights of overnight support, where Raquel observes your baby’s rhythms, supports overnight settling, and supports the early development of healthy sleep patterns. Parents are able to recover from exhaustion while learning how their baby sleeps best.

During this time Raquel helps establish:

• a healthy day/night rhythm
• appropriate awake windows
• early settling patterns
• a calm and predictable bedtime routine

Guidance is also provided through Raquel’s RIE-informed lens of respectful caregiving, helping parents better understand their baby’s cues and temperament.

Coaching also includes support around:

• feeding rhythms
• daytime pacing
• caring moments such as dressing, bathing and settling

Play is also considered an integral part of healthy development and sleep. Parents are guided in creating calm, developmentally appropriate play opportunities that support regulation, engagement and a healthy build-up of tiredness across the day.

Stage Two: Sleep Consolidation

At the end of the program Raquel returns for five further nights of overnight support to consolidate the progress made during the coaching period.

By this stage, many babies are developmentally ready for longer overnight sleep stretches. The focus shifts to:

• strengthening bedtime patterns
• reducing unnecessary night waking
• helping babies settle and resettle with confidence
• guiding your baby toward sleeping through the night where developmentally appropriate.

Answers to common questions about Raquel’s in-home overnight baby sleep support

Can you pay someone to sleep train your baby?
Yes. This service provides in-home overnight support where the process is carried out for you while you sleep.

How does the booking process work?

After your call back request, suitability and availability are discussed by phone. Dates are held briefly and secured on payment.

Why is there a wait for a booking? Can I get an earlier spot?

Bookings are scheduled in advance, as Raquel works with a limited number of families at a time.

Each stay involves travel, four nights of in-home overnight support, and follow-up, so availability is planned ahead. Typical wait time is around 21 days.

Occasionally, an earlier date may become available due to illness. If you are hoping to start sooner, you can enquire about emergency availability.

Confirmed bookings are also placed on a waitlist and may be offered an earlier date if one becomes available.
