About us

Millpond is a unique sleep clinic. It was the first private clinic to specialise in babies' and children's sleep problems when it was established in 2000 and is the only clinic to help school-aged children. It now has a reputation as the UK's leading children's sleep clinic. Millpond are sleep advisors to the NHS and provide regular national workshops to train NHS health professionals.

Millpond has a 97 per cent success rate in solving families' sleep problems.

The name of our clinic reflects the transition from chaos to calm that families experience when they follow one of our personalised sleep programmes.

What is different about Millpond?

"We strongly believe that there is no single solution and that every family is unique."

We do not claim to have any revolutionary or unique techniques up our sleeve! We use techniques and strategies that are well recognised in sleep medicine.

What makes our approach special is that we select or combine these methods in a way that is particular to your case.

Each programme is tailor-made. It takes into account not only your child's history, personality and developmental stage but also your expectations and family dynamics.

We believe that this is why Millpond has become the leading authority on child sleep problems and has even become the clinic of choice for other health professionals struggling with their own children.

Who are the therapists?

It is our team of therapists that really makes Millpond special. They have all spent many years working in the NHS supporting parents with their children's health and behavioural problems.

It is this extensive knowledge and experience that they draw upon to guide you through your sleep programme.

And, just as importantly, all of them are mums who know first-hand what a child's sleep problem can do to a family.

Our Research

We continually evaluate our service and a detailed questionnaire is sent out to all clients. Thanks to the wonderful response we are able to publish very accurately our success rates in helping to solve child sleep problems.

We ask "Has the sleep clinic helped improve your child's sleep problem?"

97% of families said yes it had and 99% said they would recommend us to their family or friends!
