You've got lots of questions about the business side of sleep consulting...
.....and we have the answers for you!We surveyed sleep consultants in the field to ask all the business related questions we could. We've got it all compiled for you in a free download.
You will receive the thorough, evidence-based course. You will also gain exclusive access to our community of sleep consultants, receive a badge to display on your social media and website, and be listed in the Collective for Family Rest and Wellness Directory.
We estimate about 20 hours of coursework, however, the course is completely self-paced as we know what it's like to be busy parents, professionals and business owners!
You will have LIFETIME access to the course and additional updates, bonuses and additions.
This is a totally self paced program so you can go through it as quickly as you’d like or as slowly as you’d like. You can expect it to take 2 months of diligently working through the course to complete it. This is because of the video trainings from experts in their field, the assessments, and the assignments that allow you to create your materials and set up your business while you’re completing the course!
Yes! This course is open to anyone with a passion for infant sleep and that can be done from anywhere!
Sleep consulting is not a regulated field so this course applies all over the world.
“Regulated” means it would have a governing body with specific qualifications. Currently that doesn’t exist! Anyone can call themselves a sleep consultant.
Yes! This can be a side gig or full time job. The purpose of the course is for you to feel equipped to open your own business but there may be the option of joining teams or a collective of sleep consultants in the future.
Not if you don’t want to. You may just want the knowledge to supplement a current career. You might want the knowledge for yourself and to help friends. You can use this however you would like!
Absolutely not! Who could even define what that is? We would never dream of putting that pressure on someone. The only thing you need is the desire to help families.
You will receive a certificate and seal that you can display on your website and social media to indicate the time and experience you have in the field of sleep consulting.

There are also mentorship opportunities if you’re interested in that!
We get it– we’re Dave Ramsey people here!
We both had a very serious sit down talk with our partner with all the information we could provide and gave them time to consider it before diving into the course.
Both of our husbands chime in on the webinar if you’d like to hear more!
This is going to vary by region and the hours that you work.
The more hours you can work, the more clients you can take, the more money you can earn. We found that direct correlation when we surveyed other sleep consultants.
There’s no limit because this is YOUR business!
We can’t speak to every program on the market– but some things that set us apart include: a paid internship option that allows you to gain real world experience while making a name for yourself to gain clients (and earn some cash!) and we include ALL the information you need to know from birth to preschool instead of having you pay for a newborn or toddler course.
We also have many, many expert contributors to ensure you’re receiving a well-rounded education to provide true holistic support to your clients.
Far from feeling like the field is saturated, we feel there is still a huge deficit of sleep support for families and also the quality of education they receive!
4 babies are born per second in the United States alone. Parents lose an average of 44 full nights of sleep in their first year of parenthood.
In other words- you are needed!
The amazing thing about an online, service-based business is that you can keep costs extremely lean. We operated for less than $100 a month for years.

We are also offering a 1:1 mentorship package for those wanting to uplevel fast and have us in your back pocket!
How quickly you get your first client depends on a lot of factors, including your own marketing and networking efforts, but our graduates typically gain their first client in 1 to 4 weeks.
The amazing thing about an online service-based business is that you can keep costs extremely lean. We each operated our respective businesses for less than $100 a month for years. We also offer a graduate marketplace, so that everything you need to run your business when starting out can be purchased at a discount-- AND we can teach you how to run a business for little to no money upfront after you're certified!
Nope! While we definitely encourage establishing a social media presence (and our expert contributors will show you exactly how to do it!), our graduates actually get the majority of their clients via referrals from friends and family.
Absolutely! We understand many aspiring sleep consultants don’t want (or already have!) a full-time job. This certification is perfect for the mama who’s looking for part-time income or simply wants to support families. This program is intentionally designed to be accessible for those with busy lives, and to help you build a business that’s flexible enough to run even if you have little ones of your own and/or a 9-to-5 job.
There’s really no limit- in our survey, we found that the more hours worked correlated to more money made. It could range from $1000/month to $10,000/month.
We teach a variety of methods appropriate to use from newborns to toddler aged children, as well as how to mix methods, how to decide what to use based on parent goals and child’s temperament, and how to combine methods for multiple phases of sleep training. No one size fits all or “signature” method here!
While there is no regulation for sleep consultating or a board overseeing certifications, there is a process to becoming an accredited course which we completed and qualified for in August of 2023 through the Association of Professional Sleep Consultants. You can now find us on their approved list of sleep consultant certifications!
