Nurturing sleep, gently & holistically
Kartya Novak
CHILDREN’S SLEEP SPECIALIST
Hi, I’m Kartya, a certified children’s sleep consultant based on the Gold Coast, Australia.
I work alongside families to provide gentle, evidence-based sleep education and support, helping you navigate your child’s sleep journey with confidence and care.
I specialise in supporting children aged 3 months to 5 years, helping with everything from settling difficulties and frequent night wakings to sleep regressions, early rising, and bedtime battles.
As a mum of three, I know firsthand how exhausting and overwhelming sleep challenges can be. Becoming a mother was a lifelong dream of mine, but when I welcomed my first child, I quickly discovered something so many parents face but rarely talk about: a lack of support. Those early months were incredibly tough. When my eldest daughter experienced her first sleep regression, I felt completely lost, confused, exhausted, and like I was failing.
With a deep love for science and understanding how things work, I threw myself into the world of infant sleep. I studied everything I could: books, research, courses, and began to truly understand the biological changes babies go through and how to respond with empathy and structure. What started as a personal mission to help my own family turned into a deep, lasting passion for supporting others.
Even once our family was sleeping well, I kept learning.I formalised my training and became a qualified paediatric sleep consultant so I could help other families build healthy sleep foundations without compromising their parenting values or the bond they share with their child.
I provide personalised support for a wide range of sleep challenges including
• Settling difficulties
• Frequent night waking
• Early rising
• Sleep associations
• Nap transitions
• Sleep regressions; and more
My goal is always to empower you with knowledge and a tailored sleep plan that fits your child’s needs and your parenting style. Sleep is important, but so is feeling seen and supported as a parent. And when families start sleeping better, the ripple effect is beautiful: stronger connections, calmer days, and more confident parenting.
Thank you so much for stopping by. I’d love to walk alongside you on your journey to better sleep.
With care,
Kartya
