"We now have a toddler who is self settling and sleeping through the night!” - Aishah
Sound familiar?
You're so tired of every night ending in guilt and exhaustion, when all you really want is peace, connection, and a calm end to the day.
You're heartbroken that the very last interaction of the day is often filled with tension and frustration instead of cuddles and calm.
You feel like you never get any time for yourself or your partner because bedtime stretches on for hours.
And somewhere along the way, bedtime has become a battle of wills instead of a moment of connection.
About me
I hear you, because I've been exactly where you are...
Every evening felt like a battle.
I was exhausted, emotionally drained, and desperately searching for something that would help.
Hi, I'm Jill, a certified sleep consultant, former early years practitioner, and mum of two. I help exhausted mums of toddlers create calm, connected bedtimes through gentle, practical sleep support that works with their parenting values, not against them.
As someone who had worked in early years care, I understood children and development, yet I still found myself struggling to help my own family. Eventually, the exhaustion caught up with me. I reached breaking point one night after returning my son to bed over 100 times! That was the moment I knew something had to change.
After trying so many things, I finally found a gentle, personalised sleep approach that worked for my family, and it completely changed our lives. Bedtime became calmer, evenings felt more connected, and I finally felt confident again. That transformation inspired me to train as a certified sleep consultant so I could help other families experience the same relief, confidence, and calm through a connection-based approach to sleep.
Today, I help mums of Toddlers & Pre-Schoolers create bedtime routines that feel predictable, peaceful, and sustainable. With the right support, bedtime can become one of the most connected parts of your day.

What families say
Real results from real families
These families were exactly where you are now. Here's what changed when they stopped trying to figure it out alone.
Self settling & Sleeping through the night!
”Before contacting Jill, I was reduced to tears on most nights. However we now have a toddler who has finally stopped breastfeeding, stopped using his dummy, is self settling and sleeping through the night!”
Mum to 2 year old, UK
Jill has Completely changed our lives!
”Jill was absolutely fantastic, extremely supportive and encouraging throughout. I really couldn’t recommend her highly enough! Jill has completely changed our lives! Thanks for everything.”
Dad to 2.5yr old, UK
Our whole family is more rested and relaxed.
“Before working with Jill, our 3.5-year-old would get upset at bedtime and wake several times a night. Jill’s gentle support helped us feel confident and calm. Now he goes to bed happily, sleeps through the night, and our whole family is more rested and relaxed.”
Mum to 3.5 year-old, UK

Questions?
Everything you want to know before our call
I specialise in supporting toddlers & pre-schoolers who are experiencing bedtime battles, resistance, stalling, frequent wake-ups, or difficulties settling to sleep.
My support is designed specifically for this unique stage of development, where sleep challenges are often closely linked to growing independence, big emotions, and the need for connection.
No. My approach is built around connection, responsiveness, and gentle boundaries.
I believe you don't need to choose between protecting your relationship with your child and creating better sleep. Together we'll find an approach that feels aligned with your parenting values while helping your toddler develop healthy sleep habits.
I don't focus on sleep in isolation. Using my Five STARS Approach, I look at the whole picture — your toddler's development, emotional needs, bedtime routines, boundaries, environment, and your family's unique circumstances.
My goal isn't just better sleep. It's helping you create calmer, more connected evenings that feel sustainable long-term
Every child is different, and there are no magic fixes.
Many families begin noticing positive changes within the first couple of weeks, but my focus is always on creating lasting change rather than quick fixes. Small, gentle shifts often lead to the most sustainable results.
Absolutely. Many of the families I support are committed to gentle, responsive parenting and want support that aligns with those values.
My approach is designed to help you create calmer bedtimes without relying on punishments, rewards, threats, or cry-it-out methods.
All packages include:
A comprehensive sleep assessment
A personalised Bedtime Roadmap
A 45-minute consultation
Ongoing WhatsApp support
Support Calls if needed
Sleep log reviews and plan adjustments
A follow-up consultation
You'll never be left trying to figure things out alone.
Yes. All consultations and support are delivered online, allowing me to work with families throughout the UK and internationally.
Everything is designed to fit around busy family life and can be implemented in your own home.
Most of the families I work with feel exactly the same. They've read the books, followed the advice online, tried reward charts, changed routines, and spent countless hours searching for answers.
Often the missing piece isn't more information, it's understanding what's driving your child's behaviour and having a clear, personalised plan that works for your family.
Once you've booked, you'll receive a detailed sleep assessment questionnaire so I can get a complete picture of what's happening.
We'll then meet for your consultation, where we'll discuss your challenges, goals, and personalised recommendations before creating your tailored Bedtime Roadmap.
You're not alone. Many toddlers push back at bedtime because they're seeking connection, testing boundaries, or struggling with the transition from busy day to sleep.
The Bright Stars Support was specifically created to support families navigating these challenges, helping you respond with confidence, consistency, and connection.
