Initial Consultation
Need more sleep? Start here.
Service Description
**Price in AUD (approx $222 USD or £170GBP, but amount debited in your local currency upon payment processing may vary based on current exchange rates, etc) Whether you are in the thick of sleep deprivation, need support to make gentle shifts to what is no longer working, or simply need some reassurance, this is the place to start! What is included: - Consultation: Grab your coffee and snacks, because it is an depth session of 60-90 minutes to establish history, your current routines and patterns, and your challenges and goals. From there, we will plan out actionable (and always responsive) strategies and next steps tailored to your unique family. - Email summary: A summary recapping our chat and the changes, strategies, etc we discuss will be emailed following our call (usually within 3 days, I'll let you know if there is a delay). - One email response is included within 7 days of receiving your summary. This is for clarifying anything from our call/the summary and ensuring you feel confident about implementing what we discuss. Not included: Follow up support: follow up support consultations are booked separately and are $170aud for 45 minutes. Frequency and number needed will depend on your individual situation but planning/budgeting for 1-2 follow up calls in the 4 weeks following our initial consultation is advisable (though not compulsory)! Follow up calls work similarly, including the call plus an email summary. I do not offer daily email or messaging support because our goal is building your confidence and having me on standby for moment to moment decisions does not empower you as the parent and expert on your child. - Guarantees: It would be unethical to make guarantees about specific sleep outcomes. While I try my absolute best to support you to find a more sustainable sleep situation, we can't control exactly what your baby or child is capable of right now. If you are very set on specific goals such as waking a certain amount of times per night or falling asleep without you present, we may not be the right fit. If you did have these goals but you did not realise they are not realistic and would like support to move away from these goals, I'd love to help! I look forward to meeting you where you are and collaborating on a realistic plan forward for you and your family. And please - don't worry about what your baby or child(ren) will be doing, whether they will be awake or asleep, etc. Interruptions are expected; we always make it work!
Cancellation Policy
Consultations are non-refundable but can be rescheduled up to 48 hours in advance without penalty. If a reschedule is requested inside 48 hours, this will be invoiced at the full rate unless the original session time is rebooked by someone else, in which case it will be rescheduled at no charge. If this is offered and there is no reply or attempt to confirm a new appointment time within 7 days, it will be assumed you do not wish to reschedule and the session will be forfeited with no refund. Consultation email summaries: For all 1:1 consults, an email summary can only be provided when the consultation takes place on zoom and is recorded. If you would prefer a phone call but would like a summary, I suggest downloading the zoom app on your phone and joining with audio only. If you would prefer not to be recorded at all, please notify Infant Sleep Scientist and you also agree in this case that an email summary will not be provided. Refunds are not offered on the basis of specific sleep goals or outcomes not being met. The costs associated with this service are for the consultation inclusions outlined above, not outcomes. Please contact admin@infantsleepscientist.com if you have any questions.
