Hi, I’m Althea Founder of Gloworx Lights
Gloworx started from a simple need, to help my baby sleep.
Like so many first time mums, I found myself navigating a whole new world - filled with love, but also uncertainty, anxiety, and the constant questioning of am I doing this right?
And when it came to sleep it felt like one of the hardest parts.
I quickly realised how important sleep is from the very beginning. Not just for rest, but for a baby’s sense of safety, regulation, and overall wellbeing. But the more I looked into it, the more I felt pulled in different directions.
Sleep training didn’t feel right for us.
I wanted something gentler.
Something that worked with my baby, not against him.
So I created it.
A nightlight that was developmentally appropriate from those early newborn days
low stimulation, calming, and designed to support a natural sleep environment.
It became part of our everyday rhythm used for every nap and every bedtime.
And over time, something special happened. My son began to understand the cue.
When the light turns on, it’s time to slow down, wind down, and get ready for sleep.
Now, as a toddler, he expects it, it brings him comfort.
And I realised it's not just a “nice to have”.
It was something that genuinely supported his sleep.
Paired with soothing sounds and a calm environment, it became the foundation of our routine. Simple, gentle, and consistent.
And now, hearing from other families, that their children feel the same comfort and that it’s become part of their routine too means the world.
What started as something just for my baby,
is now supporting many others. Helping little ones feel calm, safe, and ready for sleep.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by sleep,
or pulled in different directions and you’re simply looking for a gentle way to support your child
you’re in the right place.
