Nurture Parenting and AFL

The Stingrays AFL

As an English girl I never thought I'd write a blog with a reference to AFL.

Since arriving in Australia, my path has taken on so many surprising twists and turns. I'm certainly not predicting the next ones!

You're probably wondering what Nurture Parenting and AFL has in common?!

On Saturday Nurture Parenting was one of the proud sponsors of Ladies Day at UNSW Eastern Suburbs Bulldogs alongside Kia and UNSW. Nurture Parenting sponsors the ladies team of UNSW ES Bulldogs - The Stingrays.

Those of you who know me will know I'm a real girl power chick. I'm a midwife and passionate about health and families. This sponsorship is a 3-year deal and I'm their very first sponsor. Go the Girls!

UNSW-ES AFL club

I've been involved with the UNSW-ES AFL club for the past 9 years. They are an amazing club and I count the members as my friends. They have 8 teams including 2 womens' and an under 19's.

They won their last Grand Final in 2011 and since then they've gone from strength to strength. Dane Rampe, now at Sydney Swans was a Bulldogs player until he got a transfer. I stole a cheeky photo with Dane and the coaches on Saturday!

This year we had babies and children galore. All the players are having babies, lots of them. It was stroller central. The club certainly has a real family feel about it now.

The food and catering was wow, thanks to Taz and Hiddo.

The Gozleme went like hotcakes.

Here was my little contribution, 60 gin and lime meringue tartlets! Yes Karen can bake. I used to do High Tea parties for charity for the Garvan Institute.

It was a great day. One of the best ladies day's ever. Everyone was raving about it.

I spent Sunday recovering! My days of catering I think are over. My baby whispering world is so busy that it's hard to fit it all in. Some things just have to go. And I'm very excited a

bout the next thing to come my way.

Amazing

This program has saved my family! My 11 mo has never slept for more than 2 hours and lately it’s been hourly wakes for us. I was exhausted. We’re now 7 days into the program and last night my little one slept 2 x 4 hours. She woke twice in the night, once she self-settled and the other time she had a milk feed and self-settled afterwards. She also ditched the dummy through this program at day one and we’re not looking back. It’s been a lifesaver. Thank you Karen!

I'm so happy for you Romina, well done and thank you for your lovely review X

Karen really understand Toddler Behaviour

I have been going to Karen since my daughter was 7 weeks old. Even through her toddler years, Karen has been spot on and has helped immensely with toddler behaviour related questions. Karen guided me through potty training issues and how to best navigate them based on my strong willed child.

Nurture Parenting - knowledgeable, supportive and gentle

Karen was understanding, kind and supportive with clear strategies to help improve our toddlers sleep. She explained what was happening and gave us a plan to follow. This is the second child we have used Karen’s methods with and I would recommend Nurture Parenting to any parents wanting to better understand their babies sleep and gently help them to self soothe and sleep better.

After buying Karen’s newborn program and successfully using it on baby 2, i decided to start even earlier with baby 3. I got a little confused on certain things since she’s preemie but Karen helped me go back to my core and center, listened attentively and answered all my questions. She also went beyond that and shared new ideas with me. It was ace. I might book another in a few weeks if needed. For now baby is doing everything by the book

Advice and videos are so clear and succinct

I just wanted to write and say thank you. We started your program almost three weeks ago, and it has dramatically changed our babies sleep for the better. Toby (10 months) went from waking 6+ times each night. We fumbled during each wake, as we offered dummies, bottles, whatever we thought would stop the crying for a moment. The only thing that we achieved, was waking him up even more and frustrating the **** out of him!

The first night of magic presence took 40 minutes, and now he is down within minutes once he is placed in the cot. We have had a few sleep throughs as well.

Your advice and videos are so clear and succinct. We found them so easy to follow. To compare, we looked back on a sleep consultant plan that we paid $300+ for with our firstborn and were stunned at how complicated and convoluted the plan was. No wonder it didn't work!!

I was so nervous about going back to work being so sleep deprived, and I was also concerned about how Toby would cope with the transition to day care. However, I now feel a lot more confident (and well rested!).

All the best and thank you again.
