Becoming a sleep consultant is for anyone wanting to make a positive change in their life. It offers a flexible, fulfilling and lucrative career or a great way to add to your existing income. You don’t need any previous experience of working with babies or children and in fact, a corporate background often means you have many of the transferable skills that make a great sleep consultant, including good listening and problem-solving skills.  

Absolutely not – unless you want to. In fact at first, if you already have a job or career, we recommend training alongside this if you can.  It’s worth putting in the extra hours during the evenings or weekends for a short period if necessary as the long term benefits of becoming a sleep consultant mean more flexible working and enjoying more free time with your family. As you grow your business and gain more clients, becoming a sleep consultant is a lucrative career and it is possible to earn a six-figure salary – if you choose to.

The Sleep Consultant Certification Course is all you need to become an accredited sleep consultant and start working with clients right away. We would recommend this course for anyone looking to supplement an existing income, or if you have previous experience in running a business and don’t require any support with growing your sleep consultant business.

The Sleep Consultant Certification & Business Course provides comprehensive business training, post-course support and personal mentoring from Dani and Chris, alongside the certification, and includes live, interactive training in addition to online learning.

For the Sleep Consultant Certification & Business Course, we would discuss these options on the 30mins discovery call.

We offer sleep consultant courses accredited by leading training provider, Open College Network (OCN). We chose to partner with the OCN because unlike CPD, the OCN is a regulated body and is considered the gold standard regulated training provider. Sleep consulting is not a regulated industry, so by taking a course like ours that has been certified, you are receiving the highest possible qualification for our industry.

The course is a Level 3 NVQ qualification, which is the level you need to start practising as a sleep consultant immediately.  

The Sleep Consultant Certification Course requires approximately 12-15 hours of online learning, plus an assessment. All learning is self-paced and you can take the assessment as many times as you need to.

The Sleep Consultant Certification & Business Start-Up course also requires 12-15 hours of online learning, plus an assessment, and additionally includes approximately 25-30 hours of LIVE business training over 8 sessions. The live training runs on specific dates, so please check the dates for our next course.

This is really down to you and how you prefer to organise your time. Chris completed the course in the evenings, alongside his very demanding corporate role. It is worth putting in the extra hours during the evenings or weekends for a short period if necessary, as the long-term benefits of becoming a sleep consultant mean more flexible working and enjoying more free time with your family.

Many clients receive their first couple of clients through word of mouth, normally through friends or family, and social media is a low-cost, effective marketing tactic for raising awareness for your new business and securing clients. Putting in place a marketing strategy will help you grow your business in the longer term. For support with this, our Sleep Consultant Certification & Business Start-Up course includes comprehensive business training, including how to setup and implement a marketing strategy. 

Absolutely. The beauty of becoming a sleep consultant is that you work the hours you choose.

Only if you want it to. You can work as few or as many hours as you wish.  

It is possible to make your money back on the Sleep Consultant Certification Course (£399) with your first client. If you choose the Sleep Consultant Certification & Business Start-Up Course, it normally takes just 6-8 clients to secure ROI on the cost of the course.
