Toddler Temper Tantrums

I would recommend Eileen to the mum’s out there who are struggling with their toddler’s behaviour. After only 2 days I saw a phenomenal difference in my child, he was more calm and happy. His anxiety and fussiness was gone. It was almost like magic!

He's Like a Different Child - Sleep, Speech and a Newfound Confidence

The homeopathic remedy has been amazing. We’ve been delighted with it. He’s like a different child. It has changed our lives. He’s sleeping throughout the night.

The remedies have really helped with his anxiety. Before, if I stepped out of the room, he would normally panic and call after me ‘mummy, mummy, mummy’ but he’s perfectly ok now when that happens.

I can’t believe for the first time we’ve been able to send him to stay with our parents. He has never been away from us before. He ended up staying for two nights. There was a huge shift for him.

The remedy was bang on the money. You said he could potentially have a developmental burst, and once he started taking the remedy, we could see that with the burst of speech. It’s like he’s growing up.

He now wants to get up at 7am, rather than 5:30am. He’s not fighting going to bed and goes easily now, without tears. Funnily enough, he runs off ahead of us, rather than running away from bedtime. Before, we had to hold his hand, stroke his hair, or sit beside him. There’s been none of that in the last two weeks.

He has become much more independent. He’s in a new era of independence. He’s less soft and becoming much more assertive. I can’t get over how effective the remedy has been. It’s taken away my anxiety. I was so worried about him. He was such a sensitive soul and I can see him blossoming and becoming more independent and confident in himself.

Incontinence Resolved in 2 Months

Eva has had bladder leaking issues since she was 3 years old. The incidents mostly happened at night during her sleep but occasionally during the day.

I tried different techniques, such as stopping her from drinking after 6 pm or a reward chart for “good” nights but the incontinence incidences didn’t stop.

Now at 12 years old, Eva was leaking both during the day as well as at night and was feeling ashamed about it. After two consultations with Eileen, she was totally cured! She no longer has any bladder problems and feels very confident. I would recommend Eileen if you or your child is struggling with urinary dysfunction or bladder incontinence. Homeopathy takes a gentle and soft approach in healing, which is so important for a child.

Painful Teething Resolved Rapidly With Homeopathy

I found Eileen over two years ago when my daughter aged 10 months was teething extremely badly and I’d tried all of the usual over-the-counter pain remedies. Nothing was working. She started teething very early and she was cranky and irritable all the time. Our little girl would scream, throw her head around and be in extreme discomfort. As well as not sleeping and having a poor appetite, she was miserable; just like her exhausted parents.

Eileen’s remedies started to work within a week. Our daughter didn’t need any other pain relief and wasn’t crying so much, as her gums became less swollen. Also, some of her teeth were taking a while to cut through the gums but following a course of treatment from Eileen, they began to break through quicker and with less pain.

We consistently consulted with Eileen every time our daughter began to get new teeth and the treatment calmed her, eased her pain and helped with the tantrums and crying.

Settled, Sleeping, and Thriving: A Mother’s Relief After Homeopathic Treatment

I visited Eileen after being in hospital with my little 10 week old baby boy because of problems feeding, sleep issues, possible lactose intolerance and he was just not thriving.

Following on from our hospital stay of 2 weeks, what followed was relentless. He had a chest ear and throat infection at 12 weeks, followed by another chest infection, a week later. His reflux was horrendous, he wasn’t sleeping at all, he could go all day and take no sleep and then at 5pm go into meltdown. I was being prescribed everything, losec, riantidine, steroids, antibiotics, more steroids. It was just endless. I had received 4 sets of steroids in less than 2 months. I had had enough.

Eileen went through all the history from birth and anything significant that had happened to reach this point, she was really thorough. After 3 sessions I never looked back, my little boy became so settled, he was sleeping, content in himself, no longer writhing around the bed in pain, we haven’t needed the doctor since, and he’s not on any medication now. I couldn’t recommend Homeopathy or Eileen more.

Potty Training Success

Thank you so much Eileen for all of your help. After just 2 weeks of homeopathy, my 3-year old who was terrified of using the toilet is now going all by herself! No tears or tantrums and she is just so delighted with herself. Also, she’s not refusing meals anymore and is so content in herself as a result. A big thank you to you from all of us!!

Tackling The Terrible Twos

After attending Eileen with my older daughter, I went to see her with my 2½ year old who had a bad case of “The Terrible Two’s”.

My daughter would get so bad that she would bang her head on the floor and even froth at the mouth. The night of our first consultation with Eileen my daughter took her first remedy and the change was immediate. She was so calm and relaxed, I nicknamed Eileen “The Child Whisperer”.

After just 2 months of consultations with Eileen my daughter required no further treatment as she was doing great.

Terrible Tantrums Calmed With Homeopathy

I visited Eileen to help my daughter who was going through terrible tantrums around 17 months – like an early dose of the “terrible twos”. She was screaming, banging her head and refusing to do anything we asked, which was exhausting.

The remedies calmed her down and thankfully, every time she’s going through a rough patch we reach out and Eileen is always on hand to help.

Temper Tantrums, Childhood Anxiety & Chest Infections

I also now bring my 6 year old son. When he was little he was hospitalised and his tiny body had a lot of fighting to do to survive. At the age of 2 we all suffered from his temper tantrums at home, even though like many youngsters he was a street angel and a house devil, we both knew this wasn’t good and couldn’t continue. Along with the tantrums he suffered from recurrent chest infections and congestion, he was also always very hard on himself and got very frustrated very easily. Now, although we have the sniffles and all the normal childhood ailments, he has settled and grown into himself and life at home is a lot calmer (for the moment)!

Infant Feeding Problems & Colic Relief

I consulted Eileen for my son when he was 7 weeks old as he was struggling with colic, stomach pains, general discomfort after a bottle and he wouldn’t settle. Almost immediately, Eileen’s remedies worked to settle him. We never looked back.

Negative Behaviour Changes Rapidly Using Homeopathy

I first attended Eileen with my 5 year old daughter. She had been recommended by my sister who had used Homeopathy before. Honestly I had felt that Homeopathy was all “in the head” but things had got so bad with my daughter’s behaviour that I had to give it a go.

My daughter’s behaviour had been really bad for about 2 years with temper tantrums and we had already attended a child psychologist. Our first consultation with Eileen took over 2 hours and I felt that the consultations whilst for my daughter also helped me greatly as I got everything off my chest and Eileen was a great listener. I noticed a change in my daughter’s behaviour straight away after the remedies and my family commented that she “was like a different child.

My daughter also had asthma since she was 2½ years old but she no longer suffers from any symptoms.

It is now 2 years since we first attended Eileen and we do go back now and again if we have any bad patches but things are definitely 100 times better in our house.

Healing After Sibling Arrival: How Homeopathy Addressed Temper, Infections, and More

In November 2008, I brought my 3½ year old daughter to see Eileen for two reasons: for help with the emotional strain of adjusting to life with her new baby sister (then 3 months old), and recurrent chest infections. With Homeopathy, Eileen managed to treat both of these issues very quickly.

My daughter was clearly finding sharing her parents with the baby very difficult, and so was quick to temper, quick to tears and her toilet training had regressed a great deal. Eileen addressed this and we saw a huge improvement in her mood and demeanour within weeks.

For at least two years, each time my daughter got a cold (and they were quite frequent) it turned into a chest infection, always requiring antibiotics to resolve it. Since Eileen treated her a year ago, she has not had a chest infection. She has had a few colds but they have cleared up in a matter of days.

Recently my daughter got threadworms. As well as being very uncomfortable and itchy, she was in terrible form, with a lot of tempers and a lot of crying over little things. Within 12 hours of taking Eileen’s remedy, she began to return to normal form and by the following day it was as if she had never had the infection.

Eileen has a lovely open, easy manner and my daughter has always enjoyed talking to her and playing with her wonderful toy box. As well as really knowing her homeopathy, Eileen has given me great advice and support.

Post Labour Care, Difficult Birth, Baby Reflux and Breastfeeding Issues

I came to Eileen for my baby daughter who was suffering with reflux and digestive troubles and some fussy behaviour. We had a lot of breastfeeding issues as she could never latch due to tongue tie and laryngomalacia. After a few sessions I started to notice changes. She became a lot more settled and her mood was much brighter and she started to regain her appetite which was another huge concern of mine. Her little system seemed to mature, her digestion settled down and her breathing as well.

I also went to Eileen myself to work through some birth issues and I found it hugely beneficial.

I think the two of us came out the other side a lot more lighter. I think that Homeopathy had the power to tip us in the right direction after some hard times with the birth.

Eileen is wonderful and very supportive and encouraging in her approach and her wealth of knowledge in homeopathy is tremendous,

Baby Eczema Gone in Less Than 3 Months

I took my 11 month old baby to Eileen after trying all types of creams for her eczema which started when she was 4 weeks old.

I’d been back & forth to my doctor which resulted in prescription of steroid creams. These were only a temporary solution to the problem and to be honest I didn’t want to be constantly using a steroid on her skin. She had eczema on her upper legs, upper arms, tummy & back. She wasn’t a very good sleeper at night and some nights I could see her squirming in her cot trying to get some relief from the itching which would wake her.

After 2-3 weeks of being on her homeopathy medicine I could see a huge difference & the itch didn’t seem to be so bad. In turn she was able to enjoy better quality sleep during the night which led to a happier baby and mammy during the day.

In less than 3 months her eczema was gone. Now one year on her skin is still fully cleared & we haven’t looked back.

I would highly recommend Eileen to friends & family.

Sleep Restored, Potty Trained, Peace Gained

I initially contacted Eileen for help with my 4-year-old son, who had severe sleep problems since birth. Nothing I tried seemed to work and with each developmental change, new problems arose.

It felt more and more overwhelming and complicated to rectify and our journey seemed so different to that of my friends, which added extra layers of insecurity and worry.

Having seen Eileen’s posts on social media, I decided to reach out for help. I was using homeopathy in a very basic sense on an acute basis for him, but I felt the issue was deeper than I could understand.

Eileen very seamlessly and in hindsight very easily, resolved his sleep issues. In no time at all, he was sleeping through the night, and we were in complete disbelief.
We had struggled day and night for so long and yet suddenly, he was so settled and peaceful at night.

This of course had a knock-on effect in relaxing the whole family unit and improving all our rest, recovery and relationships with one and other. It really was quite unbelievable but that really is how easily it happened.

Eileen then went on to help me with other issues as they arose, such as potty training which again we had worked on for close to a year, with no real success…
Within a few weeks… he is now fully toilet trained and very independent about the whole process.

We really couldn’t believe how easy this had been.

It probably sounds too good to be true and that’s exactly how it felt, it really is quite astonishing and I just wish we’d known of Eileen sooner.

It’s quite amazing to watch things progress and unfold as a whole family unit whether it be for acute problems or more involved issues. She is such a great support to me as a mum and wife where I feel I can link in with her knowledge and advice, as needs arise, whether that be through a specific programme or for acute issues. I could not recommend Eileen enough and we look forward to working with her for many years to come.

Pain-Free and Anxiety-Free: How Eileen Helped My Daughter and Me

Myself and my six year old daughter had both been seeing Eileen for a few months, for different reasons.

My daughter had severe abdominal pain and issues with digestion. This eased almost immediately after her first session with Eileen and after six months or so, she is now pain free and she has no issues with digestion at all. She's back to her bubbly self.

Eileen has helped me immensely with my own anxiety and has a very holistic and soothing approach. A friend recommended homeopathy and its definitely something I will consider returning to in the future. Eileen has buckets of advice too.

Thank you ever so much.
