20+ years Experience as a Mothercraft Maternity Nanny and Night Nurse

Premium 1:1 Overnight Baby Sleep Coaching & Newborn Specialist Care. Melbourne · Brighton · Hawthorn · Kew · Toorak · Camberwell & Sourrounding Areas
We are so grateful that Raquel came into our lives. Our four month old was waking almost hourly at night, reliant on rocking and his dummy to sleep, distracted during feeds and cat-napping during the day. We were both tired and injured from rocking an increasingly bigger baby to sleep, and completely overwhelmed with information. Raquel cut through everything. Over the two weeks we worked with her, she was responsive, reassuring, intuitive and kind. She gave us the gift of sleep, but more importantly, the confidence to trust our instincts and our baby. We're all so much happier (and well-rested) for it.

About Raquel Tara

Who I Am
I’m not just a baby sleep consultant; I’m a coach, an educator, and an early parenting specialist. Starting out as an international night nanny over 20 years ago. I’ve seen and heard and helped all kinds of family dynamics and the difficulties they have faced with baby sleep. 

What I Offer
I’ll teach you to see your baby, her emotions, and development through new eyes.

Tailored Support
With my premium baby sleep coaching programs, I provide truly individualised and unlimited 1:1 coaching and support for 14 days.

Understanding the Process
You’ll never follow my baby sleep advice blindly—you’ll understand why everything is improving, which is key to a holistic outcome for your family.

Support for Sleep-Deprived Parents
Sleep deprivation can impact your confidence, which is why the majority of my clients begin with my sleep nanny baby sleep coaching service.

Sleep Nanny Reset Option
With 2+ nights of me tending to your baby before the official coaching begins, all you do is sleep—so we begin together rested and ready.

The Result
When you work with me, you’ll not only be reminded how wonderful sleep feels—you’ll also grow more confident in your abilities as a parent.
