Yesterday the John Lewis Partnership Working Parents Network hosted an
event on a very important topic- Parental Sleep Deprivation. We were joined
by our fabulous guest Nicole Ratcliffe Sleep Specialist who spoke to us about
ways to improve sleep for both parents and their children.
The session was informative, engaging and interactive, and Nicole left us with
lots of great takeaways to consider going forward.
The stand out topics for me where signs of sleep deprivation and
understanding more about the science behind sleep.
As someone who doesn’t sleep well at all this session really made me realise
how much your body needs good quality sleep and the impact on your life
and health long term if you don’t get it.
Thanks for working with Rebecca and I, Nicole.

Nicole worked with some our colleagues at Atlanta, delivering her online courses and bespoke coaching calls to provide support to some of our parents and carers who have been struggling with the effects of sleep deprivation. The feedback we got from people after completing Nicole's courses was phenomenal! Problems with sleep can impact our colleagues massively, some were really struggling with productivity and concentration, as well as mental health issues. After working with Nicole we've had feedback from colleagues that their child's sleep has been revolutionised, and that understanding their child's behaviours has really helped them to take charge of their sleep journey. It's helped in conversations with managers, and has helped us as a business to explore how we can further support our people. I'd recommend anyone who looks after workplace wellbeing or DEI family support to speak to Nicole, and see how she can help your business and your colleagues.
