Discover me, discover sleep.
Set out on an enchanting expedition of ups and downs as you guide, with my support, your little dreamer to a land of sleep-filled wonders. Together we can nurture them to become independent slumber masters.
Welcome to Sleep Young One, I’m Kate Young, owner and founder.
Let me tell you a few things about me…
I’ve been joyfully married for 16 years and counting
we live on the West Coast of sunny Australia
we have one gorgeous son, a true blessing in our lives
we have one beautiful fur daughter, our 16yr old Pug X Chihuahua
I am a twin (I love it)
my friends are my sunshine, I actually need them
Why I became interested in all things sleep…
When we had our young one I became obsessed with sleep, the timing, how many minutes/hours, the where, the how, the why. It became a supreme, encompassing passion in my life, actually in everyones life around me because that is all I could focus on for the first few months. I felt a huge hunger to learn all the theory behind it, I wanted everyones opinions, thoughts, knowledge and experiences.
I studied day and night and read everything I could regarding sleep, particularly paediatric sleep, I still do. I took everything as an opportunity to learn and now I want to filter it all on to other families. I feel a strong pull to encourage and generously support parents/caregivers and their young ones as they find their way to the splendid world of deep, restorative, consolidated sleep.
I encourage families to embrace the uniqueness of their own stories. Every giggle, every yawn, and every sleepy cuddle adds to the charm of your young one's sleep journey. Trust me when I say, the ‘before bedtimes’ will be the memories you will hold most dear in the years to come. The bath time laughs, the classic books and funny voices, the stillness of laying/sitting with your child while they close their eyes or chat softly about their day are truly special moments, and lets not forget the warm, long cuddles you get at the end of a big day.
Get ready to enter one of the most adorable adventures you can share with your little one, creating an unbreakable bond.
I am so excited to welcome you to the beauty of peaceful nights and slow mornings as you guide your precious young one towards the wonder of blissful, independent sleep.
A rested mind, body and soul will allow you all the ability to make good decisions, through choice, clarity and calmness.
