Helping Women Create a Fulfilling Career as a Sleep Consultant
I’m Melissa Perry, the luckiest wife and mother of three amazing, well-rested children. Before I became a sleep consultant, I was surrounded with children all my life. Whether I was babysitting or caring for my three younger sisters, I had plenty of hands-on-experience learning how to care and comfort children.
While there was support for other maternal challenges, birth coaches and lactation consultants, there was no one I could talk to about my daughter’s ongoing sleep issues.
Then I had my own. Nothing came close to preparing me for the birth of my first child. It was by far the hardest challenge I had faced thus far in my life. The string of sleepless nights and exhausting days left me feeling anxious, irritable, and unsure about my ability to be a good mother.
While the sleep books offer advice,
they didn’t offer support, encouragement or the invaluable feeling of connection with a person who can help and truly understand.
I needed to be the one to make the change and find a solution to fix this vicious cycle. I devoured every book and website that had ever been written on babies’ sleep. I figured out what would work best for my daughter and our family and eventually, it worked! She began sleeping 12 hours a night and three solid naps throughout the day.
This sparked something within me. The deep desire to help other families give their child a full night’s sleep and have a place to feel heard and seek help specific to their needs. That’s when I founded The Cradle Coach in 2012. Since then, I have received my certification as a Happiest Baby on the Block educator and a maternity and baby certified sleep consultant from the International Maternity and Parenting Institute. I’ve also received my certification as a Newborn Care Advanced Specialist from the Newborn Care Training Academy.I quickly scaled the company by hiring incredible sleep consultants from all over the country to help support, educate, and partner with tired, busy families, to develop customized sleep training plans for their babies and toddlers.
After receiving my own maternity, baby and toddler sleep consultant certification, and hiring, firing and rehiring certified pediatric sleep consultants, I realized there were a few major things lacking in the industry: confident sleep consultants who had experience working with all different types of families, knowledge on all different types of methods – not just a one-size-fits-all approach – some understanding on the business of building a successful sleep consultant company, and support within their own communities of other like-minded consultants.
So many women find themselves stuck in the daily grind of motherhood – cooking, cleaning, and changing diapers on repeat – but know they were made for more. They have a passion to help other tired families but don’t know where to begin. At The Cradle Coach Academy we offer online training courses in Baby + Toddler Sleep Consulting, Newborn Care Specialty, and Foster + Adoption Sleep Consulting to give women a way to have it all: a fulfilling career and the flexibility they need to keep their other job as a full-time mom.
We take the passion that’s within you, and help you create a successful sleep consultant company by training you with scientific knowledge, hands-on experience, and offering lifetime support.
You shouldn’t have to choose between being a mom and having a career you love. You might have had a positive experience with sleep training that ultimately changed your life. That experience sparked something in you.
Something that created a passion and desire to help other tired families with their child. You want to do more than cook, clean, and change diapers all day, but something–lack of time/resources, fear, or insecurity–is holding you back. You shouldn’t have to choose between being a mom and having a career you love.
what people are saying
“I cannot recommend The Cradle Coach Academy more!”
TCCA not only teaches the fundamentals of sleep, but also the client process and how to build and market your business – this was HUGE for me. I felt so much more confident in my ability to become a successful sleep consultant because of this additional guidance…I cannot recommend The Cradle Coach Academy more highly. I made back my investment in the program within one month, and am continuing to grow and learn each day.

“This program ROCKS!”
I felt supported going through the coursework—any clarification were addressed. I felt supported working with my volunteer clients—when I was first in the trenches and applying the coursework. I felt supported talking through how the heck to start a business— one thing I never thought I would do. But most importantly, I felt supported AFTER the program by TCCA and the amazing network of people you will be connected too! Wherever you turn on this journey with TCCA, someone is there to help. I’m grateful.
