About Whole Child Co
Whole Child Co is led by Tash, an Occupational Therapist trained in Orofacial Myofunctional Therapy, paediatric feeding, infant and early childhood sleep quality, and infant reflux. Their approach to sleep goes beyond behaviours—it is whole child, family-led, and grounded in co-regulation. They believe good quality sleep is a pillar of health and foundation for growth and development, and advocate for early intervention in airway and oral function to prevent cascading issues.

Our approach
Whole Child Co takes a root-cause, family-led approach to sleep, oral function and feeding, looking beyond routines and environment to understand the whole child—including their nervous system, oral function, gut health, sensory needs and airway development. The philosophy recognises that sleep is a window into a child's overall health rather than a behaviour to be trained away, and that co-regulation with a calm, connected caregiver is central to supporting a child's nervous system. Sessions are built on an understanding of biologically normal infant sleep and honour each family's values, circumstances and capacity rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method. Families often describe feeling truly understood and walking away with clarity and a framework for understanding their child, rather than more questions.
Working with families
The provider emphasises a family-led approach that honours each family's values, circumstances and capacity, and families describe feeling truly understood and supported. Tash offers a free 15-minute discovery call to discuss suitability and build connection before formal work begins. The Sleep Membership includes live Q&As with Tash and a community space for parents on the same journey, embedding ongoing communication and collective learning into the support.
