Whether you’re navigating the newborn haze, toddler sleep regressions, or just craving a full night’s rest, you’re not alone. I’m here to walk alongside you with practical, nurturing support so you and your little one can get the rest you truly deserve.

Baby and You – supporting you to support your baby.

Hello, I’m Catherine Thompson, a Baby Sleep Consultant on Sydney’s Lower North Shore. With over two decades of experience in Paediatric Nursing and Early Childhood Education, the birth of my two daughters deepened my understanding of parental challenges.

Hi, I’m Dr. Erin Hawken, a passionate Chiropractor dedicated to supporting mothers, babies, and families in their journey to a calm, clear, connected and resilient life. Having completed my postgraduate study in Chiropractic care for pregnancy, babies and children and being certificatied in the Webster technique, I have almost 20 years experience in looking after families through all the important times in life.

My journey in chiropractic began in my own family, where regular Chiropractic care was our first approach to health. This lifelong experience taught me that Chiropractic is more than just treating symptoms – it’s about creating a pathway to better living, healing, and connection.

I care for people with many different needs including:

• Newborns struggling with constipation, feeding issues, or reflux
• Mothers experiencing pregnancy-related discomfort or simply wanting to optimise their body for birth and beyond
• Children struggling to meet their developmental milestones
• Families seeking holistic health and stress management
• Professionals dealing with stress, sleep issues, energy and mood challenges

My gentle, compassionate approach focuses on helping your nervous system change gears into your parasympathetic, rest & digest state – this is where your body can truly regulate and regenerate itself. This state is crucial for healing, development, creativity, and even experiencing deeper connections with yourself and your loved ones.

Whether you’re an expecting mother, a new parent, or simply someone seeking a more balanced, resilient approach to health, I’m here to support you. My goal is to help you rediscover life through a healthier body and a more clear, connected state of being. Let’s work together to unlock your body’s incredible potential for healing, growth, and well-being.

Nesting Space is a dedicated private mental health occupational therapy practice specialising in perinatal services. We are committed to nurturing and supporting the mental well-being of birthing parents and enriching the lives of their families throughout pregnancy, childbirth, and the early stages of parenthood.

Hi I’m Juliette, I’m a mum and with nearly a decade of experience as a Mental Health Occupational Therapist, I am deeply passionate about my work. I have firsthand experience with the challenges of navigating mental health struggles during pregnancy and the postnatal period. Having personally faced the isolation of postnatal anxiety, rage, and depression following a traumatic birth, I understand the profound impact that seeking help early can have. This realisation inspired me to establish Nesting Space, as I recognized the vital role an Occupational Therapist can play in supporting women and their families during the antenatal and postnatal periods.

Becoming a mother was a transformative experience for me—physically, psychologically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually. The discovery of matrescence, the transition into motherhood, solidified my calling to this field. I deeply understand the ambivalence that can accompany motherhood and the neurocognitive changes that occur after pregnancy and birth.

During pregnancy, it is recommended that women undergo screening for Gestational Diabetes.  Historically, this test has been dreaded by mum, but we’ve now made it something to look forward to.

Mums arrive fasted and have their blood tests taken by one of our experienced staff members.  They are then treated to an hour of rest in our divine relaxation room and an hour day spa treatment.  This service is seeing an increased uptake in screening and also promoting antenatal and postnatal wellbeing by linking women in with exceptional quality pregnancy and post-natal services.  As such, we are focusing on prevention rather than cure.”
