Hayley Bukhamsin is the founder of The Gentle Mama, creator of Happy, Healthy Sleep: the online baby sleep course with NO sleep training and a certified infant sleep educator. She focuses on a truly gentle, evidence-based, attachment-supporting, empowering, and intuition nurturing approach to baby sleep. Hayley is mama to two girls and lives in Dubai. She earned a BA Hons degree from The University of Nottingham, UK, before starting a career in advertising. It wasn't until the birth of her first daughter that she discovered her true passion: Attachment Parenting, Gentle Parenting and above all, healthy infant sleep.

For the last 6 years, Hayley has pursued this passion actively, building an Attachment Parenting community within the UAE, blogging about her parenting experiences via The Gentle Mama, certifying as an Infant Sleep Educator, and now launching Happy Healthy Sleep.

Hayley now works internationally, helping parents with gentle, respectful sleep coaching. She helps tired families, often at the edge of desperation, find ways to improve their wellbeing in these tough times, without needing to 'sleep train' their babies.
