Supportive Sleep
Sabrina Mayers
I’m Sabrina. Mum of two - Isaac and Lyla. I became a sleep consultant after having struggles with my son and just not being satisfied with the guidance out there. Leaving my baby to cry for 10 minutes and being told I wasn’t allowed to go in broke my heart and made me want to be sick. So I set out to change that.
I’m a Certified Sleep Consultant and completed study with the Institute of Sensitive Sleep and Lyndsey Hookway. As you can see from those- I like being gentle with babies. I’m different because I focus on attachment and being responsive with our children. I don’t use sleep training like regular sleep consultants and work on finding a cause of sleep challenges rather than Band-Aid approaches with routines, settling techniques.
I work via phone, email or home visits depending on the level of support you want initially. All my packages come with support periods to help guide you 1:1.

Ashleigh Broad
Total Lifestyle Chiropractic
Dr. Ashleigh Broad - B.Chiro Sci, M.Chiro, DACCP (Paediatrics)
I grew up in a small town in country Victoria. After studying Chiropractic in Sydney, I moved to Mackay in Queensland. I spent the first five years of my career developing skills to serve all my clients in Mackay, as well as teaching chiropractic students at CQ University. During my time in Mackay, I decided to complete a further two year training program. This was to ensure I was fully equipped with the latest research and skills to best look after our pregnant women, newborns and kids all the way through their childhood.
From the moment I decided to be a chiropractor, I knew that I wanted to focus on paediatric care. I am passionate about ensuring every child has the best possible start in life and that their family has the support they need to help them become the best version of themselves. I enjoy assessing and monitoring the development of all the children under my care and love making sure their spine and nervous systems are working at their best. I use a range of gentle and safe techniques to care for children of all ages, love seeing my patients grow and develop into healthy active kids!
