If you are reading this at 3am, you are exactly who I built this for.

Your baby sleeping calmly, without controlled crying.

Hello, I am Louise.

For 25 years I have worked as an in-house nanny and baby sleep specialist in private homes. Not clinics. Not online consultations. In the actual home, at 3am, working through the night alongside real families.

My clients find me through word of mouth and premium agencies. Many ask me to sign non-disclosure agreements. I have no big social media presence. I have never needed one. For 25 years the demand for my time has exceeded what I can supply in person.

The families who hire me can afford any level of support they want. They keep choosing me. They keep recommending me. That is not something I say to impress you. It is simply what has happened for a quarter of a century.

Calm First is the first time I have made this knowledge available outside those private homes. The same approach. The same staged method. In a guide you can use tonight.

If sleep feels unpredictable, you are not failing

Most parents I work with are not stuck because they are doing the "wrong" thing. They are stuck because baby sleep is not one problem. It changes by stage.

Newborn sleep looks different from a 4 month regression. Sleep around childcare looks different again. What helped before may not fit your baby now.

The fastest way to feel calmer is to stop guessing what applies and get clear on what stage your baby is actually in.

  • Which stage your baby is actually in

    Most parents are using 4 month regression advice on a newborn, or newborn tricks on a 6 month old. Wrong stage, wrong tools, more exhaustion. I will tell you exactly where you are tonight.

  • Why this week feels different from last week

    Sleep shifts in predictable stages across the first year. Once you can see the pattern, nothing feels random any more.



  • What to do tonight before anyone loses more sleep

    You leave with one focus for tonight. Not a manual. Not 40 tabs open at 2am. Calm first, then order, then repeat.

What parents tell me after a few nights

Testimonial 1 (placeholder):
“We were waking constantly and I felt like I was doing everything wrong. Having a clear plan helped immediately.”

Testimonial 2 (placeholder):
“The biggest change was how calm we felt at night. Once we stopped overreacting, sleep improved.”

Testimonial 3 (placeholder):

“This felt realistic and kind — not rigid. I finally understood what mattered at our stage.”

Still reading?

That is usually the sign you need a stage diagnosis, not more information.

I will give you one in 2 minutes.
