Our Story
Let Us Introduce Ourselves...
We came together in 2022 as two parents and a nanny and discussed the fact there was no affordable weekend childcare available to families across the UK.
We shared a vision of creating a unique overnight childcare experience: to provide families with the ability to receive affordable childcare over the weekend; to allow them to work the same shifts as their other half; to save money on overnight childcare as a single parent; and to enjoy a child free night out.
This is where the idea of Sleep Out was developed. We decided that all parents should have safe, affordable childcare available to them at all times, not just Monday to Friday during the day.

I’m a mum of 4 children and have always been so fascinated by how physically and emotionally capable a child is at such a young age. Giving children the tools to deal with some of the challenges they face, teaching them self reflection, self love and increasing their self esteem through different activities and wellness practices could add some major benefits to a child's mental health development.

I’ve been working with children for the last 8 years as a nursery practitioner, live-in nanny, and swim teacher, and have always been so passionate about supporting families by providing safe childcare. Parents always voice the concern about the safety of their little ones. Setting up Sleep Out has enabled me to support so many families, by providing overnight childcare provision with qualified professionals that I've personally vetted.

I’m also a mum of 4, and the cost of childcare has meant that time out with friends and family has always been an obstacle - especially time with my husband as we tend to take turns to save on cost. I wanted to find an affordable solution to allow parents to spend more quality time together.
