Rene gave us our sleep back.

We met Rene at our local chemist, where once a week she offers her knowledge and experience to fledging parents. Rene took one look at our baby, Sarah, and told us that our child was tired and should be in bed. We thought Sarah was just unhappy and had been walking the halls| with her for weeks – we abandoned shopping, went straight home and put Sarah to bed.

So when our second child James, came along we rang Rene on day five and she came to our home for a visit. James had been a nightmare all day and Rene looked at him and looked at us and said, 'You’re doing it all over again!' I had forgotten that it was alright if children cry so I had been picking him up and feeding him frequently to keep him happy. Rene showed us how to put him to bed, she stayed with us until he had settled himself and fallen asleep. Again, Rene saved us from repeating our mistakes.
