Book your appointment and get sleep sorted.
Are you spending hours trying to get your baby or toddler to sleep?
Or maybe they’re easy to settle to sleep but wake constantly overnight?
These are common sleep difficulties in babies and toddlers, but they are highly treatable with the right advice and support.
When you book in with Dr Laura Conway (PhD, Sleep Practitioner), you’ll receive:
a 50 minute appointment via video-call (Telehealth) or in-person (Melbourne),
a thorough assessment of your child’s sleep and circadian rhythm and identification of their unique sleep needs,
discussion of a range of age-appropriate, evidence-based and gentle approaches,

Why work with us
Infant Sleep Australia, led by Dr Fallon Cook and Dr Laura Conway, provides high level sleep support for tired parents of babies and toddlers.
If you are exhausted, have had limited success with other approaches, and the thought of another broken night’s sleep brings you to tears, then our sleep clinic has been designed for you.
As PhD qualified sleep experts, we have helped thousands of families achieve better sleep.
We deliver specialised sleep support, completely tailored to your child.
You can wake up feeling refreshed, energised, and ready to enjoy parenting.
In our sleep clinic we resolve tricky sleep and settling problems.
We solve sleep problems that were left unresolved by other approaches or generic sleep advice.
There is no sleep difficulty we haven’t seen.
We have assisted GP’s, Paediatricians, Sleep Physicians, sleep consultants, and Early Parenting Centres with thousands of their most challenging cases.
We also carry out cutting edge paediatric sleep research through our affiliations with the University of Melbourne’s Department of Paediatrics at the Royal Children’s Hospital, and the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute.
And we are members of an international panel of world leading paediatric sleep specialists who we consult with on challenging cases – giving you the best possible chance of success.
Our approach
We will create a sleep plan for your child that is highly tailored to their unique sleep needs and developmental stage. A plan that feels manageable for you. This gives you the best chance of achieving restful nights in the quickest timeframe.
To do this we:
Listen closely to your concerns. You are the expert in your child.
Ask about your baby or toddler’s settling behaviours.
Assess your baby or toddler’s sleep pattern and circadian rhythm.
Ask about your child’s temperament, fears, and overall wellbeing.
Why our approach works
We look at the baby or toddler in front of us, not the mythical ‘average’ child!
We ask about you. Are you well supported? Are you ready to work on sleep? What is it about your baby or toddler’s sleep or settling that you find hardest?
Every plan we write is gentle. Improving sleep takes dedication and persistence so we craft approaches that your family can manage. Protecting and nurturing infant and child mental health is core to all we do.
We are trained in all evidence-based approaches, which means our advice is based on data gathered from thousands of families. We draw together the most useful components from a suite of approaches ensuring a tailored fit to your child.
We are PhD qualified experts in paediatric sleep, and our expertise also includes infant mental health, child development, and parenting.
Additionally, we’ve undertaken enhanced training at institutes including Harvard Medical School, Kings College London, the Royal Children’s Hospital.

About us
We started Infant Sleep Australia because we believe every family should have access to tailored, high quality, sleep support. We were frustrated by the number of families being failed by dubious advice, ‘cookie-cutter’ programs, and a lack of genuine support and understanding. We know families need sensible, tailored, evidence-based, sleep therapy. Our mission is to leave no family behind - no matter how complex or challenging the sleep difficulty.

My 22 month old is now going to bed on her own and doesn’t wake until the morning. The only regret I have is not seeking help sooner! You saved our lives.

Our baby has gone from waking up every hour and heavily relying on feeding + rocking to sleep, to now being able to self settle and sleep through the whole night!

I feel more confident than ever now to help my daughter sleep and I'm more present for my family instead of being so sleep deprived.
