About the Practice
When a sensitive child cannot simply be trained into sleep, Edinburgh parents need support that respects attachment and temperament. Gentle Sleep Support Edinburgh gives Edinburgh families a route into sleep support when broken nights are affecting school, work, mood and family life. The focus is practical parent-facing support, with clear attention to SEND, neurodivergence and the limits of non-emergency sleep advice.
