What We Do

Little Sparklers is an Australian registered charity. We empower families to nurture their young children - day in and night out.

We offer free peer support through the online movement, The Beyond Sleep Training Project and share real stories of how families are making life work via The Beyond Sleep Training Podcast. We represent our community's voices with key stakeholders and ensure we take our seat at the table any chance we get to ensure change is made possible at every level.

By understanding normal behaviour and development, families can establish realistic expectations for their children.

The care provided to young babies and toddlers is fundamental to their brain development and well-being throughout their lives and in order for that care to be provided, families need to be supported by the community around them.

Right now, society is letting families down.

The unrealistic cultural expectations on our young babies and children are creating an unnecessary burden on the family unit.

But we can change this.

With access to evidence-based, expert-backed information, we can shift the way parenting is approached to align with the needs of our infants and young children and support families to thrive alongside.
