The Sleep by Steph Ethos

We’ve based our approach to supporting you and your little ones to sleep well on four core beliefs: 

Sleep should be a priority for both you and your little one from day one – because a happy, well-rested baby equals a happy, well-rested parent.

With the right foundations in place, all healthy babies and children can safely – and happily – put themselves to sleep.

Sleep support and guidance should be safe, affordable and accessible for all parents and caregivers.

Educating and empowering you with safe, practical information is crucial because the best person to help your baby or child get the rest they need is you.

Meet the Sleep Expert

Steph Gouin

My name is Steph Gouin and I’m a qualified baby and child sleep expert, registered nurse (currently non-practising) and mum to three beautiful children, Poppy, Harry and Edward. Together with my husband, Nick, we live in Bayside, Melbourne.

Sleep hasn’t always come easy to me. I’ve struggled with sleep deprivation for most of my life. I know and fully understand how poor, broken sleep can destroy you. I really do know how torturous it can be.

My interest in baby and child sleep began when I had my firstborn, Poppy. I’m so passionate about the work I do, and I gain great satisfaction from educating, supporting and guiding parents through their own journeys, as soon as their baby arrives and in the years beyond.

As well as being Australia’s leading sleep expert, I’m an international keynote speaker and was honoured to speak at the Toddler Health and Wellness Conference 2019 in the Middle East. I’ve also been published in numerous magazines and online parenting forums in Australia and the US.

Over the years, I’ve proudly supported many celebrity and high-profile parents and worked alongside many incredible brands and businesses, including Kidspot, ergoPouch and One Fine Baby, who are just as passionate about baby and child sleep as I am.

Meet the Admin Expert

Madeline Sherry

My name is Madeline Sherry and I’m Steph’s administration assistant. I’m a registered primary school teacher (on leave) and mum to three beautiful children, William, Lucy and Ellie. I live in Brisbane and work remotely for Sleep by Steph.

I take care of all of the behind-the-scenes work for. My favourite part of the role is hearing all of your success stories and working on new and top secret Sleep by Steph projects. I used Steph’s Age Basics™ eBooks for my second baby, and they were honestly life changing – just simple, straightforward advice and recommendations.

As a teacher, I saw how the quality of sleep significantly impacted a child’s ability to maintain concentration and retain information. I honestly believe that by setting healthy sleep foundations and habits from day one, we are setting our children up for sleep success throughout their entire lives. It’s so fulfilling to work for a small business I share the same values and beliefs with.
