ABOUT US
Meet the Team
Hello! We are so excited to meet you and begin your sleep coaching journey.
We are Orla and Laura, best friends who studied nursing together in University College Dublin. Once qualified we worked in our training hospital before heading off to Vietnam to volunteer with disadvantaged children. We spent three months volunteering with the Christina Noble Children’s Foundation in Ho Chi Minh and then travelled around Asia. In 2015 we took job opportunities in London where we specialised in critical care. After two years we returned to Dublin where Orla continued nursing and became a mum and Laura qualified as a midwife. It was during this time we realised the crucial importance of newborn sleep.
After many conversations about what parents really need, we decided to pursue sleep consultancy and hence the Dream Team was born!
SLEEP COACH
Orla
My passion for sleep coaching began when my daughter was six months old, and I was desperate for a good night’s sleep. After successfully helping her develop healthy, independent sleep habits using a gentle, responsive approach, I saw first-hand the difference quality sleep can make for the whole family.
Inspired by this experience, I trained under the guidance of Kim West. Combining this training with my experience as a registered nurse and a mum, I support families with personalised sleep solutions that are responsive to each child’s unique needs and respect every family’s parenting values.
SLEEP COACH
Laura
Hi, I’m Laura, the other half of the Dream Team. I am a sleep coach, midwife and nurse. After years of working night shifts, I understand how detrimental sleep deprivation can be. I became interested in sleep training while working in postnatal services and as a night nanny.
Having successfully sleep trained hundreds of families I am committed to helping many many more through our sleep packages!
