Koha Support

At Little Dream Boats, we've always believed that every family deserves access to quality sleep support. We know that 1:1 support isn't financially possible for everyone, but we don't believe that should mean families have to navigate sleep challenges alone.

And that's exactly why we've created Koha Support!

Each month, we commit to providing at least two families with personalised sleep support, completely free of charge.

At the end of their support journey, families have the option to give koha - a voluntary contribution of any amount. There's absolutely no obligation or expectation to give.

Any koha received goes towards helping another family access support, on top of the two families we already commit to helping each month.

Our hope is to build something that can continue to grow. A programme where one family's journey towards better sleep can help make that same journey possible for another.

Everything you need to know about Koha Support

Who is Koha Support for?

Koha Support is designed for families who are struggling with their little one's sleep and are in desperate need of support, but aren't in a position to purchase support. This might include families experiencing financial hardship and single parents.

What's included?

Families selected for Koha Support receive two weeks of personalised, 1:1 sleep support, including:

A full phone consultation to discuss your little one's sleep, challenges and goals.
A personalised mini sleep plan with recommendations tailored to your child and family.
Two weeks of ongoing support, including sleep log reviews, troubleshooting, and guidance as you work towards your goals.
Resources and information to help you navigate your little one's sleep beyond our time together.

Our aim is to give families the knowledge, tools and support they need to make meaningful, lasting improvements to their little one's sleep.

How are families selected?

We offer Koha Support to at least two families every month, with additional places offered whenever our capacity allows. Each application is reviewed individually, taking into consideration your family's circumstances, current sleep challenges, and how our support could help.

Your ability to contribute koha has absolutely no influence on whether you're selected. We don't ask you to commit to a contribution or tell us how much you might be able to give.

Successful applicants will be contacted privately via email or text. All applications are confidential, and we will never publicly announce which families have been selected.

How do I apply?

Simply complete the application form below, telling us a little about your family, your little one's sleep challenges, and why Koha Support would make a difference for you.

You can also nominate someone you know who could benefit from this initiative.

We can't guarantee a place for every family who applies, but we will do our best to help as many whānau as we can.
