If you’re reading this in the middle of the night, or dreading the moment the sun goes down, I want you to know: I’ve been exactly where you are.
Having experienced the heavy fog of sleep deprivation with both of my own boys, I know that 'just wait it out' isn't helpful advice when you're exhausted. That’s why I founded The Gentle Nanny.
I’m Anne, a qualified Maternity Nurse, ABM Breastfeeding Supporter, and Gentle Sleep Coach with over 26 years of experience supporting Berkshire families. My approach is simple: no 'cry-it-out,' no rigid judgment—just bespoke, gentle methods that work for your unique baby.
I don’t just give you a plan; I give you your evenings back and the confidence to enjoy being a parent again."
Anne helped with my toddler’s terrible sleep issues, offering advice on bed time routine and settling techniques. Our whole family was affected by his bedtime tantrums and the sleepless nights and thanks to Anne’s advice, we were able to turn a corner. She has a very gentle and kind approach and I would highly recommend her.

Have you just had a baby? I can support you through the fourth trimester as this period can be so daunting and overwhelming. Offering you help and answer any questions you may have during the first few months. My help and support can be through What's app helping you as you go along.

As a gentle sleep coach I offer gentle and holistic sleep coaching. All packages come with advice tailored to suit your child and family. Every child is unique when it comes to sleep. Whether you need 1-1 support or online advice, I can offer you sleep support.

It can be exciting when it comes the time to wean your baby also daunting, so I can help you during the weaning period, advise with fussy eating and help you meal plan for your baby or child.

Anne has helped me with questions I had about weaning my baby. She answered all questions I had and I gathered new knowledge about weaning my baby on a vegan diet. She is very easy to talk to and friendly! I would definitely recommend her.
