The Investment
Not only will you become fully equipped with the knowledge and experience as a baby + toddler sleep consultant, but by the end of completion you will have created a solid business. With the purchase of the program comes with the business launch workbook. This workbook allows you to build your business plan, teaches you how to market yourself, gain clients, create a business name, build a website and social media platform, and teaches you how to grow your business successfully.
The program gives you full access to downloadable templates, resources, references, legal ease documents, contracts, client recordings, and a one year membership, upon completing the program, into our continuing education classes, support groups, and quarterly calls with certified experts in all fields of business and baby + toddler sleep.
How long will it take to recoup the investment?
The average Cradle Coach sleep consultant makes in the range of $250 – $500 every week taking on 1 or 2 clients.
If you could sell 1 sleep package and make $250 (averaging The Cradle Coach’s two most purchased packages), you would need to sell 14 packages set at this price in order to recoup your investment (1 package averaging $250 x 14 = $3500).
The Application Process
To enroll in The Cradle Coach Academy, Baby and Toddler Sleep Consulting Certification Program, each applicant must fill out and submit a detailed application and schedule an interview (all done during the enrollment process). If the application is accepted, we interview the applicant over the phone at the scheduled time.
We are looking for serious candidates who have a solid understanding and passion to become a sleep consultant. We ask that you do your research and gain a full understanding of what other programs offer and what sets The Cradle Coach Academy, Baby and Toddler Sleep Consultant Certification Program apart from the rest. We only want candidates who know that THIS is what they want to do. This is their purpose.
This certification program is thorough, serious and tedious. With a specific end goal to receive full baby and toddler sleep certification, every student must have the capacity to focus on the multi module program and volunteer experience hours needed.
We are very selective in the application process. We want the most elite sleep consultants out there and ones that have a heart to serve families. We also look for applicants who are willing to hustle to grow their business. Since we are an educational institution we do not offer exclusivity of any region, state, province or country to any graduate. Our goal is that we ensure that each student is genuinely prepared, driven, taught, committed and enthusiastic about this industry and has the certainty and dedicated state of mind to be effective and expand on that common information base that develops with every single new graduate.

If we could change one thing about what we do, we would change the term “sleep training”. When people hear about sleep training, they automatically think they will be forced to let their child cry. As your sleep guide, our mission here at TCCA is to find the right method of sleep plan that suits each unique family and situation. We don’t practice with one program or one method. We educate on many methods and our goal always is for our clients to choose a method that is presented to them, that they are comfortable with, one that suits their child’s personality and temperament. We will offer our clients the guidance and support that is needed to make it through the process.
Once you have graduated from The Cradle Coach Academy, the requirements to continue your membership will be $100 every two years, take two new continuing education course yearly, and maintain your insurance and cpr certification.
