Maternity & Postpartum Sleep Certification Course (New!)

Our Maternity and Postpartum Sleep Certification is our newest course, and is offered as a live and self-paced program. This course is designed to teach you how to support women during pregnancy and postpartum as they struggle with unique sleep challenges in these periods. This program is one of only a few that provide the training and knowledge needed to support women during these two very important stages. Discover how you can be a part of this exciting movement by learning more about our upcoming live training below!

What will I learn?

At Sweet Sleep Academy, we take a truly holistic approach because pediatric sleep is about so much more than just sleep training routines. Our program looks at the full picture of child sleep and family well-being.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Identify (not diagnose) underlying medical concerns and red flags

  • Set up healthy sleep routines and foundations

  • Support parents dealing with postpartum depression

  • Understand the science of sleep cycles, hormones, and child development

  • Get the basics you need to launch and grow your own business

…plus so much more, all designed to prepare you for real-world success.

Is this for me?

  • Do you want a meaningful career helping parents and babies, without sacrificing precious family time?

  • Are you ready to deepen your expertise in child sleep and make a real impact in your community?

  • Are you looking for more flexibility, freedom, and fulfillment in your work?

If that sounds like you, our pediatric sleep consultant certification program is the perfect next step.
