When your children are small, there is nothing more precious than sleep.

And no greater reward than that magical shift when you start to hear your little one’s breathing slow and deepen and you realise that they have finally – finally! – nodded off.

Sophie Harris-Taylor was tasked with showing the client, Mothercare’s empathy and understanding in a humorous, relatable way through portraits of pyjama-clad 0 to 10-year-olds.

Adorable kiddos yawn or rub their eyes, while no doubt insisting that they’re not in the least bit drowsy…. Beautiful moments that will resonate with beat parents everywhere.
