Hi! I'm Aleisha, Mum of two and founder of Sure Sleep

My journey into family sleep and wellness coaching didn’t start in a classroom, it started in the dark in my West Auckland home, rocking my baby in the middle of the night, feeling isolated, anxious, and unsure if I’d ever feel like myself again.

 

The fourth trimester was everything I had imagined and nothing I expected. Sleep felt impossible, and my mental health began to plummet. I experienced postnatal depression, and every night my baby woke, I felt a pit in my stomach I couldn’t shake. Lockdowns made it worse, days spent at home, obsessing over sleep, sitting in the dark, rocking my little one, wondering if I was failing as a mum. I knew something had to change, so I reached out to my GP and a sleep consultant.

 

Working with a sleep consultant was life-changing. I began to understand that yes, it’s normal for babies to wake in the night, but it’s not normal for mums to feel consumed with anxiety when it happens. With guidance, support, and practical strategies, I learned how to nurture my baby’s sleep while protecting my own mental health. Slowly, I started to reclaim rest, confidence, and connection. I got out of the house, joined playgroups, and started to really enjoy maternity leave. Then, when the time came I felt more prepared to return to work without my wellbeing falling apart.

 

That experience ignited something in me. I wanted to be there for other parents who feel alone in those sleepless, anxious nights. I trained with Beyond Sleep School and became a Family Sleep and Wellness Coach. Today, my mission is to empower families to navigate early parenthood with confidence, to help mums and dads feel supported, regain rest, and nurture strong bonds with their babies.

 

I want every parent to know that both you and your baby can be well rested. That asking for help is strength. That gentle, consistent guidance can create better sleep, stronger connections, and happier days. Sure Sleep isn’t just about teaching babies to sleep, it’s about helping parents thrive by giving them the gift of rest and confidence.

 

I’m here for you, and for your children, so that together we can navigate these early years with support, understanding, and hope. Take the first step and book a no-obligation discovery call today, I promise you will feel better for it.
