Real Family Story: When Sleep Became a Struggle

“We weren’t looking for a miracle, just something that fit.”

As parents of three, Kimberley and Richard have always believed in a balanced approach to wellness. They know it’s not about perfection, it’s about finding what works for your family, your routines, and your lifestyle.

But like many parents raising a teen who takes ADHD medication, they reached a point where sleep had become a real challenge. And they knew that for growing teens, good quality sleep isn’t just nice to have, it’s essential. It supports healthy development, emotional well-being, and the ability to focus during the day.

“Medication was our teen’s choice, and it’s been the right one for him. But one of the common side effects is trouble winding down at night, just not being able to switch off.”

For Kimberley, melatonin didn’t feel like the right long-term solution. She didn’t want to add another medication to the mix or risk creating a dependency. They wanted to find something gentler, more natural, and easy for their teen to manage without adding to his mental load. Ideally, it needed to taste good too because in a busy household, the easier it is to stick with, the better.

The Turning Point

That’s when they came across Yakuru Sleep Gummies.

By this point, their evening routine was already well-established: dim lights, no screens, a hot shower before bed. But even with these steps in place, their son still struggled to switch off.

“We introduced a proper bedtime rhythm, dim lights, no screens, a hot shower and added the Yakuru gummies as part of the wind-down. Honestly, it’s been a game changer for our family. It’s made evenings calmer, sleep more predictable.”

Why They Chose Yakuru

• Non-habit forming

• Natural ingredients

• Easy to build into daily rhythm

• No pressure, no overpromising

  
  

Now, bedtime feels different in their house. Their teen feels like he’s taking control of the solution, not just managing it. And for Kimberley and Richard, that’s just as important as the sleep itself.

“It supports our whole household. Less stress and frustration for him at bedtime and more calm.”
