Lenka Medvecová Tinková is a Czech medical anthropologist and mother of three who has worked on children's sleep for years. She runs ProsimSpinkej.cz, lectures to parents and professionals, and writes books - practical guides as well as bedtime tales for children. In her writing, sleep is part of the whole day rather than a separate technical task. Since September 2025 she has also been building Sladké sny, a project centred on child psychotherapy and supporting families in difficult situations. Medvecová Tinková also speaks publicly about sleep training in small children; her course Spánek miminek a batolat is subtitled "bez výcviku spánku".
The ProsimSpinkej.cz project marks ten years and marks the anniversary with a course discount. "It is exactly 10 years since my third girl was born, and my own sleep problems led me to the subject of baby and toddler sleep," writes the founder.
She works with the Namažu a jdu spinkat programme on the Malovaného divadla schedule; a children's performance is announced for 24 January 2026.
With Jana Nováčková she launched the Sladké sny project, focused on child psychotherapy.
The audiobook Když spánek ne a ne přijit, read by the author, was added for children at bedtime.
