Home visit baby settling consultations for 0-3 year olds

My aim is to provide techniques for warm, sensitive, responsive caregiving for 0-3 year olds. I use Circle of Security(COS) Principles in my work with parents. Working in their own home to tailor the best approach for the individual that meets their baby and family needs. Focusing not only on Mothers but making sure Fathers are just as involved in the entire process. I gain a deeper understanding of the parent-infant relationship and provide both parents with techniques to build a strong connection with their child.

  • Sherrian took into account all areas

    I needed help with my 20 month old. After he was unwell numerous times we were breastfeeding all night long and in my bed! Sherrian took into account all areas of his development and his history and was so easy to talk to. Since our home visit Sherrian has provided follow up and has been wonderfully encouraging. There is now a light at the end of the tunnel thanks to Sherrian!

  • She gave me the reassurance that I was after

    Little Abi at about 6 months started waking every 2-3 hours. I had a plan and spoke with Sherrian, she gave me the reassurance that I was after. She was very prompt in following up to see how things were going. Abi is now 8 months and goes to bed at 7pm and wakes at 7am with only waking once at night for a feed.

  • Made me more confident as a new mum

    At the end of the assessment I had a ‘developmental plan’ for my daughter, which listed her strengths, the things that ‘stressed’ her and ways I could help her, which made me more confident as a new mum and helped me bond even more with my new baby.

  • So helpful!

    The Assessment has been so helpful and has shaped the way I care for my bub!

  • I highly recommend

    I highly recommend getting the Brazelton assessment done on your newborn baby

  • I now realise

    I now realise that all newborns are born with their own little personalities and being able to see this in my baby is amazing.

  • I was at breaking point

    I cannot recommend Sherrian highly enough. I was at breaking point with my six month old, Just three days following Sherrian’s visit, I could put my daughter down in her cot and walk away with no feeding, rocking or patting to sleep.

  • Professional and Helpful

    Sherrian was so professional and helpful for me. She is such a lovely and passionate person which shines through her work. She was so caring and loving to my baby girl and I felt at ease every time she showed me how to settle her.
