Become a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant in 10 Weeks. With Me Right There With You.
The Intensive is TCCA's live, small-group certification experience for women who know they'll move faster with a schedule, accountability, real-time support and someone actually noticing if they disappear for three weeks.
You'll move through the full TCCA certification alongside a maximum of 10 women, work with five real families before graduating, and then spend the next three months with me building the business.

This isn't a different certification. It's a different way of going through it.
The Intensive includes the same comprehensive TCCA sleep consultant certification, real-family practicum, business training, graduate community and ongoing resources our students receive.
The difference is HOW you're going through it.
Instead of logging in and telling yourself you'll "get to the next module this weekend," you have a 10-week schedule, weekly live calls, a tiny cohort moving with you and direct access to me throughout the process.
If you're fantastic at buying self-paced programs and actually finishing them on your own, you may not need this.
"If you already know you're the person who does better when someone is expecting you to show up and with accountability? That's exactly why I created The Intensive."— Marli, Owner of The Cradle Coach Academy
"I don't know...what if it takes me five years to do this?"
That was literally Yusra's thought when she was comparing self-paced certification programs. She chose our Intensive live program because she knew she needed the accountability.
"I would do the live program over and over again over doing the self-paced one."
— Yusra, TCCA Graduate & Owner of Finally Asleep
Here's what the next 10 weeks actually look like.
Learn it
Move through the sleep science and consulting curriculum on a structured weekly schedule instead of figuring out what to do when.
Work through it together
Live call with Marli + your cohort. Questions, case scenarios, application, troubleshooting and the stuff that makes way more sense once you're actually talking it through.
Ask when you're stuck
Private Telegram access to Marli for questions between calls.
Practice it
Work with five real volunteer families with mentorship and feedback so the first family you help isn't the first person who pays you. And have Marli in your back pocket as you work with volunteers - no guessing, just real support when you need it.
"But my life is already freaking busy."
So was Lindsey's.
She didn't choose the live Intensive program because she had tons of extra time.
She chose it because she didn't.
And yes, you're getting a heck of a lot more than weekly Zoom calls.
LEARN IT
Learn pediatric sleep science, assessment, sleep plans, troubleshooting, parent coaching and how to safely work within your scope.
PRACTICE IT
Work with five actual volunteer families before graduating, with mentorship and feedback.
BUILD IT
Learn how to turn your new skill into a business: offers, pricing, conversations, referral relationships, clients and the actual mechanics of getting paid to do this.
Because I don't want you finishing certification thinking:
"Cool. I have a certificate. Now how the heck do I make money with it?"
Okay, but does this actually turn into a business?
For Yusra, it did.
She started The Intensive while working in her full-time career with 2 young kids at home. And she didn't wait until graduation to start thinking about the business side...
She started building visibility while she was still certifying. She talked to friends. Connected with daycare families. Got reviews from her volunteer families. Reached out to her pediatrician. Built relationships.
She had 7 clients
Just weeks after graduating, she'd generated enough revenue to earn back her entire certification investment.
Highest sales month in April
Earned in just one month while still working full-time in her corporate career.
*Individual results vary. Yusra's experience reflects her dedication, network, and business execution. No earnings are guaranteed.
The Intensive is probably your version of TCCA if...
You're serious about becoming a sleep consultant, but know yourself well enough to know that 'self-paced' can quickly become 'I'll do it next week.'
You want to be able to ask questions while you're learning instead of wondering whether you're understanding something correctly.
You learn better by talking through actual cases with real people.
You want a deadline and a clear path to graduation.
You want to build the business alongside people doing the exact same thing.
And you want more direct access to me while you're doing it.
