About Me
Naava Lindner
Hi! I'm Naava—a grateful mother of 8, a (young) grandmother, and a dedicated sleep consultant passionate about helping families thrive.
My journey into sleep consulting began with my own parenting struggles and a deep desire to give my children the best.
When I first became a mother, I made a silent vow: I would put my baby girl first, always! I catered to her on demand, feeding her whenever she cried, holding her close throughout the night and letting her schedule dictate my day. At the time, I believed this was the ultimate expression of love.
The idea of schedules or routines seemed cold and unloving, far from the nurturing mother I wanted to be.
I didn't grow up surrounded by babies, so my first real introduction to parenting came after I got married and moved to Israel.
There, I observed two parenting styles—mothers who followed strict schedules and who said things like, “I can't feed my baby right now—it's not the right time.” And mothers who kept their babies as close as possible, responding to every sound or hint of discomfort. I admired the latter and modeled my parenting after it.
But by the time my fourth baby arrived, I couldn't keep up with the demands of a newborn, three other children, and life's many responsibilities. I was overwhelmed and sleep-deprived.
It was during this time that a friend introduced me to The Happiest Baby on the Block by Dr. Harvey Karp, where I learned calming techniques like swaddling and soothing. Fascinated by these solutions, I began learning everything I could about baby care— eating, digesting, playtime, and sleeping.
While these approaches provided a strong foundation, I saw baby care is not a one-size-fits-all secret. I adapted what I learned to align with my values and my family's unique needs. And for the first time, I saw that caring for a baby didn't have to be all or nothing.
As I implemented these methods with my own children, everything shifted. For the first time, I started to really learn and understand what my baby was saying. This transformation became the foundation of my approach to sleep training.
My babies became calmer and more content, and naturally I was more rested and confident.. Friends and family noticed the change and started asking for my advice. At first, I didn't think much of it—I was just doing what worked for me. Until one friend said, “Naava, you have a system—it works, and you need to help other moms!”
And so, my journey as a sleep consultant began. By the time I had my sixth baby, I had developed an intuitive understanding of infant cues. I wasn't guessing what they wanted—I could read my baby's cues before they even cried. I knew what they wanted before they asked.
I learned It wasn't about choosing rigid schedules or self-sacrifice—it was about finding balance. A gentle, nurturing approach that meets a baby's needs while also creating structure and ensuring you get the rest necessary to be the best parent you can be.
