About Me
My name is Tania Field – founder at Rich River Sleep Consultant. I am a mother, infant massage instructor and a woman who understands the importance of a good night’s sleep.
Working with children has always been my sole focus and one that has brought me so much unreserved joy. I have dedicated my career to this passion, engaging in study and practice that focus solely on the gentle nurturing and support of children and infants.
I am passionate about children, their healthy development and how best to create environments and routines that allow them to thrive. Over the past 12 years as a family day care provider, I have nurtured and cared for many children and babies.
Through my work I have garnered a solid understanding and belief that routine (be it strict or flexible) is directly linked to children who are happier, healthier and more able to flourish.
As a mother of two young boys I am also incredibly aware of the demands of raising children, particularly when there is not much rest happening - as was the case in our household when our boys were young.
When I say I understand what you are going through, I genuinely mean it. I also understand the importance of a non-judgemental, supportive service to get you and your family the sleep and sanity you so desperately need.
My feeling is that asking for help when you need it is not a sign of bad parenting, in fact it is quite the opposite. Asking for help when you know you need it makes you a great parent. And I am here to help.
Why?
Internationally-recognised Infant and Child Sleep Consultant is my official credential, but it’s my empathy, compassion and non-judgemental approach that make my practice so effective.
As a mother of two boys who barely shut their eyes as infants. I fully understand the exhaustion of parents whose babies don’t sleep consistently.
After attending sleep school with my own sons and learning so much, I knew then that I wanted to support other parents in theway I had been supported - with the empathy and compassion that comes with having this shared experience.
Sleep school, for me, marked such a positive shift - a turning point in my life as a parent of young children.Almost immediately I knew that this was to be my direction.
My mission is to help other parents of young children form healthy sleeping routines, and in turn, be more equipped to focus on the other joys and demands of parenting.
Services
If 12 years as a family day care provider has taught me anything, it is that no two children or family are the same.
My aim then, is to provide each family a personalised sleep plan to suit their individual needs based on lifestyle factors, parenting styles and of course the personality of the child.
My expertise and knowledge can support you with a range of sleep or sleep-affecting concerns including:
-
Sleeping through the night
-
Naps
-
Establishing a flexible or strict routine
-
Early morning wake ups
-
Weaning your child off their swaddle/dummy
-
Extending naps
-
Cat napping
-
Late bedtimes
-
Teaching self-settling skills
-
Getting your newborn to sleep
-
A feed-to-sleep association
-
Toddler not staying in bed
-
Transitioning to a cot/bed
Of course, this list is not exhaustive. There will be other concerns unique to your experience, and I would be happy to discuss these with you.
My primary goal is to help you tackle whatever it is that is stopping you and your family from getting the rest you deserve.

Testimonials
"Before working with Tania, Jayla was waking up to five times a night. With her baby sister on the way, we knew we needed to find a solution. Tania’s guidance was gentle, clear, and incredibly effective — within 48 hours, Jayla was sleeping 7pm–7am. It was such a relief, especially with a newborn arriving just days later. We couldn’t be more grateful! My only regret is that we didn’t do it sooner"

"Sleep training for us was a game changer and we quickly learnt how much we as a family thrive off a routine especially Finn. Tania was phenomenal through the entire training and I truely didn’t think we would see the results we saw in the space of 2 weeks. We got more out of this than I was expecting and I feel so confident moving forward with the knowledge Tania has taught me. Highly highly recommend!!"

"We honestly can’t thank Tan enough for the support she’s given our family. For 17 months, sleep felt overwhelming. We were spending hours rocking Mila to sleep, dealing with constant night wakes, short naps, and feeling completely exhausted. On top of that, we felt so much guilt leaving her with anyone because getting her to sleep was such a challenge.
Since working with Tan, everything has changed. We’ve gone from hours of rocking to simply placing Mila in her cot awake and walking out while she happily settles herself to sleep. It still feels surreal. She’s now in a consistent, healthy routine and is sleeping so much better. What surprised us most is how much this has positively impacted other areas too. Mila had a rocky start with eating and drinking, and her sleep improvements have helped her eat more solids and overall thrive. Tan has truly changed our lives, and we are so incredibly grateful. We would recommend her to any family needing support with their child’s sleep."

"Our little man was waking up 5+ times per night, having multiple feeds to be resettled and sleeping with us most nights. Tania quickly implemented a few gentle changes that made big impacts. Within the first few nights he was sleeping through the night with no wakes or feeds. Thank you, Tania. You have been a dream to work with"

"We are so grateful for our experience with Tania. We no longer struggle getting our 4 year old to bed. She follows her routine and is in bed putting herself to sleep by 7pm. Our 5 month old has gone from cat napping any time of the day and waking multiple times a night to following a sleep schedule, consolidating her naps and sleeping through the night!! Throughout our experience it didn’t always go to plan and things came unstuck over the Christmas period, but with the information and strategies Tania gave us we were able to get back on track and the girls are sleeping better than ever. We highly recommend Tania. She has a wealth of knowledge and is such a great support"
