Training Details

FAQs
-
The Pediatric Sleep Intervention Certificate Training is intended for providers that already have comfort in providing standard sleep plans for families of children 0-5yrs and are looking to continue their sleep education to incorporate nutrition, gut-health, parental mental health, and sleep considerations specific to developmental disorders. If a provider is interested in learning about the foundations of creating developmentally appropriate sleep plans then it’s recommended for them to start with Behavioral Sleep Intervention 101 before taking the Pediatric Sleep Intervention Certificate Training.
