I’m a certified paediatric sleep specialist, post partum maternity nurse and proud mother.
Hi, I’m Elaine Harvey, founder of Lullababy SOS a dedicated gentle sleep consultant and a proud, sometimes exhausted, ADHD mum to a bright and energetic ADHD daughter. With over 20 years of experience, I’ve supported more than 20,000 families worldwide, helping them navigate the challenges of infant and toddler sleep with compassion and evidence-based strategies.
My passion for helping families navigate the beautiful yet challenging early years of parenting spans over two decades. Since 2001, I’ve supported over 20,000 families worldwide, guiding them through the precious yet often overwhelming experiences that come with welcoming a new baby into the family.
With qualifications as a Postpartum Maternity Nurse, Early Childhood Educator, Certified Pediatric Sleep Specialist, and serving as the Australasian Regional Director of the International Association of Professional Sleep Consultants, my focus is on providing holistic, compassionate, and effective support to families.
If you ask anyone who knows me, they’ll likely tell you that I’m mad about babies, toddlers, attachemnet-based parenting and sleep support and the extraordinary transformations that happen in their first years. This phase is filled with wonder and growth, and I feel privileged to witness families flourish during this magical period.
My journey as a Gentle Sleep Consultant didn’t start from my own baby sleep struggles as a new mum. Rather, I became the first internationally recognized sleep specialist in Australia because of a lifelong passion for learning about parenting and, specifically, fostering positive parent-child attachment.
This passion took root in my own challenging childhood. Growing up with a sense of insecure attachment, I found joy and solace in caring for babies and young children around me—neighbors, relatives, friends of the family. These early connections provided an escape, a way for me to experience the pure, unconditional affection that young children so readily give.
This love for children grew into an obsession and a calling. They sparked in me a passion for nurturing healthy, joyful bonds between parents and children, which has continued throughout my life and career.
In the early 2000s, I became Australia’s first internationally recognized sleep consultant, bringing a pioneering approach that blends secure attachment, practical science, and gentle methods to help parents find calm, predictable routines.
Today, I’m still as passionate as I was back then—helping parents build loving, balanced routines that nurture attachment, well-being, and, as a bonus, better sleep.
My programs and consultations offer a holistic approach that combines Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and my 5 Routine Foundations that goes beyond bedtime to support their overall well-being, development, and connection with you.
