I could not recommend Isabelle enough. I had tried a different sleep consultant before but it doesn’t even compare. Isabelle dedicated one whole session to understand the specific needs of our daughter and to develop a bespoke plan. Every step of the way she explained the science behind the behaviour and the actions to implement. It was so clear to understand and it actually helped in many other aspects of our daughter’s life. Isabelle was also always available in case of problems, questions, clarifications or change of plans. You can tell she really cares about her clients. I can’t believe the progress we have achieved in such a couple of months. Trust her and you won’t regret it! (extract from Google review)

If you find yourself here looking for help out of sheer desperation then take this as a clear sign that you need to contact Isabelle now! She’s honestly a baby sleep whisperer! I could go on about how many hours of sleep we lost and the effects of lack of sleep my husband and I faced but if you’re here then that means you already know what a nightmare (pun intended) it is trying to raise a child that just won’t sleep. There’s a reason sleep deprivation is used as a form of torture, because it is just that! Now to the more important part, after 14 months of little to no sleep and I mean little, I found Isabelle’s website at 3am after another sleepless night of pure torture from our bundle of joy. With tear filled eyes & somewhat resentment towards life in general, I found myself reading through the reviews on her website just like you are doing now. I was so desperate & defeated that I couldn’t wait for morning to come so I could contact her and boy am I glad I did! In just 5 weeks our not so little bundle now sleeps 12hrs a night with no intervention from us whatsoever. He sleeps in his room, in his cot and settles himself back to sleep. All things I was convinced he would never do in a million years. If you do decide to work with Isabelle, know and understand that she is going to get you through and to the other side of this. She will make sure of it! She will treat you and your family like you’re the only people she’s looking after and rest assured it will be money well spent if you value your sleep and peace in life. There is no price on what she does. She’s incredible. She goes deeper than just assisting your family to get more sleep. She offers advice on day to day life with your little one, advice that will apply into their teenage years & maybe even adults. She’s genuinely invested in your child’s life & family life. I noticed she takes an awful lot of notes, all to gain a deep understanding of your family dynamics. Her advice is very much personalised & tailored to your specific situation. You will not receive ‘blanket’ advice so what works for me, most likely won’t apply to your family but what will work is listening & doing exactly as she says. She really does know what she’s doing. She will happily go over your slotted time just to make sure you have what you need to get through. As I said at the top, this is your sign to transform your life & get some rest again.

We approached Isabelle for help when our 5 year old became anxious, frustrated and angry at bedtimes, to the point where he wouldn't stay in his own room, let alone his own bed. Bedtimes became later and later and more fraught for us all. Within a month of working with Isabelle our son was back to staying in his room at bedtime and a month later we could finally close his bedroom door and go downstairs without him following after us. While in many ways this transformation feels like magic, in reality it's a reflection of Isabelle's deep expertise in all matters sleep-related, combined with her patient, caring and insightful approach. We have come out of the other side of this period a much happier and more content family for which I can't thank, or recommend, Isabelle enough!

Working with Isabelle is one of the best investments we’ve ever made as a family. Thanks to Isabelle we not only have a little girl who is an excellent sleeper but my partner and I have become better parents overall. When I first read Isabelle’s reviews below (which are all amazing) I felt a flutter of hope followed by a huge surge of scepticism - surely she wasn’t that good? These families must be exaggerating. Reviewers lie… And even after I had made the decision to go ahead and try, during my first session with Isabelle when she said "you won’t believe how different life will be in a few weeks’ time", I couldn’t help but doubt her and the possibility that we could achieve such dramatic change. How wrong I was. Our five month old daughter was waking up 3-5 times a night, and refusing to go back to sleep in the early hours. She would barely sleep longer than 30 minutes for her naps. We had to closely monitor her for any signs of waking and quickly try and soothe her back to sleep - desperate to extend the naps beyond 30-40 mins. As a mother I had no certainty, no reliable routine and no confidence in my daughters ability to sleep well or my ability to help her. I felt so stressed that she wasn’t getting enough sleep. However much I researched and whatever I tried, I couldn’t find a way forward for us. My daughter had suffered badly from silent reflux since she was born and this meant that she was uncomfortable lying on her back from her first weeks alive and by her fourth month we were having to use a dummy at night and the motion of the pram during the day to help her feel relaxed lying flat. But in less than a month working with Isabelle, our daughter was sleeping two hours in her cot on her own on her back and we could put her down wide awake and she would SOOTHE HERSELF TO SLEEP. Yes, you read that right. And this was all achieved without using cry it out therapy, with a firm focus on the science of sleep and being supportive of your baby’s developmental needs. Now I have absolute trust in my daughter’s ability to sleep, and trust in myself as a parent. I know what I need to do to ensure she continues being a good sleeper, and I know what I need to do to be the best parent I can be. Read these reviews - as we did - acknowledge your scepticism and fear but take the plunge anyway. You won’t believe what life will be like in just a few weeks’ time.

My wife and I were a little bit sceptical when a friend recommended a sleep consultant. I wondered why he couldn't just tell me what Isabelle had told him. But that wouldn't work! What Isabelle provides is a bespoke, data-driven, holistic, and personalised service that's a mixture fascinating science and illuminating psychology. It's not just about the night's sleep (that we're happy to report is great now!) but an approach to parenting that looks at the whole picture. .../... would say Isabelle's a miracle worker, but what she does it not a miracle. It's really the result of hard work, intelligence, sleep science and psychology. And we'd really recommend her services to everybody!

We sought help from Isabelle when our 2nd daughter was 7 months old and waking almost hourly throughout the night, despite us having tried co-sleeping, controlled crying etc. Isabelle's approach was kind, knowledgeable, holistic and flexible. We now have a 10 month old who is able to sleep in her cot for around 12 hours. The difference this has made to our days is unmeasurable, allowing me to enjoy maternity leave with the children and dogs, rather than the pre-Isabelle months of severe sleep-deprivation. Isabelle also helped us with our 3 year old's sleep and sent her the loveliest little *Well Done* card. Thank you, Isabelle!

It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Isabelle, she truly took an interest in us as a couple and our baby to understand how to help us. I didn’t think the day would come where I could say, ‘my baby sleeps through the night!’ but Isabelle made that dream a reality. Isabelle’s knowledge, patience and kind nature helped us help our daughter. Thank you Isabelle 🙂

Our 11wks old son would only sleep 40 minutes at a time day and night, and on one of us (parents).../... For me, it affected my mental health and my ability to function at even a basic level. I was not leaving the house and had become anxious about the idea of ever being able to, let alone return to work. within just a few weeks of working with Isabelle, our son was sleeping on his own, day and night, and sleeping for periods of 3, 4 or 5 hours at night .../...I've build up the confidence that I need in order to return to work in the next couple of months.

I was expecting a strict rulebook and some painful tears but what I got instead was a deep dive in to my own childhood, a compassionate exploration of my parenting style and a soft light shone on areas to address .../... It is no overestimation to say Isabelle transformed not only our night time but me as a mother. She’s the non-judgemental guidance that we all need.

Isabelle is an in-demand sleep consultant with a huge experience bringing rest and joy to hundreds of parents across different cultures. She has an uncanny ability to actively listen and find creative solutions to sleep issues that work with people's strengths. The guidance that comes from Huckleberry is very much an extension of Isabelle.

Our three kids (aged 2, 3 and 4) had been sleeping badly for months. It was a 2 hour fight every evening .../... They were waking up multiple times each night, on a few occasions 10 times a night .../... Now we can get all of them into bed with minimal fuss and they're usually asleep within 15 minutes .../... Isabelle was non-judgemental, came up with a plan that would work for us and our situation, and helped us put it into practise.

Dear fellow (tired) parents, Within very few sessions Isabelle has completely turned our family's life around. Having a 3.5 year-old and a 1.5 year-old became increasingly difficult on us parents .../... Your situation and needs might be completely different from our family's, but I am certain that Isabelle will have the right methods up her sleeve to also help you.

I'm so grateful to Isabelle and would recommend her to everyone and anyone! Sleep problem or not! .../... I believe I've become a more confident and calm parent, not only in regards to sleeping but in all other areas. Isabelle is an excellent guide and teacher.

Isabelle has been a lifesaver for our family. Our son was waking up to six times a night and unable to sleep for more than 30 mins during his day naps unless pushed in a buggy. With Isabelle's support, he is now nailing day time naps and for the first time since starting maternity leave, I have time to catch my breath in the day. He is now waking only once at night for a feed so everyone is feeling rested and so much happier. Couldn't recommend working with Isabelle more. "You really have been a hero for us xx"

I contacted Isabelle Edmondson as my son (22 months) needed help to get to sleep and back to sleep in the night. It was exhausting .../... We live in an oriental society where many protagonists play an important role in the life of a child. This setting is different from the typical ones of western societies. Isabelle managed to work with this added difficulty which really isn’t simple at all .../... My son finally sleeps all night. I advise parents who are at a loss to get help from Isabelle.

Our 2 years old Maddie was breast feeding all the time, night and day. It was making my and my husband's lives a misery. I was feeling very out of control. .../... Now, my friends and family noticed a huge difference in myself and in Maddie. Now she sleeps for 11h in her own bedroom and I couldn’t be prouder. I would recommend Isabelle to everyone who struggles with parenting issues.

It is not until you have a better understanding of how things can be improved that the benefits can be appreciated. It's a no-brainer! I really couldn't see the wood from the trees. Isabelle has a wealth of skills and knowledge which really opened my eyes and helped me to understand how I could help my son. My only regret is not having sought her advice earlier.

We were up sometimes seven to eight times a night. .../... By the time we finished our three sessions with Isabelle, our 10 months old daughter was sleeping twelve hours a night without waking up once. I would strongly recommend Isabelle's highly personalised and friendly approach to anyone who wants to help their children to get a good night's sleep.

We contacted Isabelle after 2 months of worsening sleep at night for our little boy. We had tried to work on day naps and had taken lots of advice from friends/family/books. We were both exhausted.../... Now we have a little boy who we put down into the cot awake, we leave the room and he will fall asleep without assistance in around 10 mins. We are different people and cannot recommend Isabelle's help highly enough.
