Monica Shortt | Baby Sleep Consultant

THE SLEEP OF YOUR DREAMS.
It's waiting...
Becoming a parent is one of life’s greatest gifts - but constant sleep deprivation doesn’t have to be part of the story.
​
As a certified baby sleep consultant in Tauranga, I support families with a compassionate, science-informed and attachment-aware approach. I create personalised sleep plans tailored to your child’s temperament, developmental stage, and your parenting style - so sleep feels aligned, not overwhelming.
​
Whether you're navigating frequent night wakings, early morning starts, short naps, or you simply want to build healthy sleep foundations from the beginning, I’m here to guide and support you.
​
Together, we’ll bring calmer nights and brighter days back to your family.
I CAN HELP WITH

bedtime resistance
early morning waking
frequent night waking
reducing or cutting night feeds
short naps and catnapping
newborn sleep and settling
sleep associations that no longer feel
sustainable
establishing age-appropriate daily routines
nap transitions and dropping a nap
transitioning from cot to bed
... and more!
Every plan is responsive, realistic, and designed to support secure attachment while helping your child develop independent
sleep skills at a pace that feels right for your family.
Local Support in Tauranga. Available Across New Zealand.
While I work closely with families here in Tauranga and the wider Bay of Plenty, I also support parents nationwide through virtual consultations.
​
As both a certified baby sleep consultant and a registered early childhood teacher, I bring daily, hands-on experience with infant development into every plan I create. My approach blends research, practical experience, and deep respect for the parent-child relationship.
​
You don’t need to “just survive” this season. With the right guidance, sleep can feel calm, predictable, and sustainable.
