The IPSP Difference…
Learn from an RN, Become a Highly-Paid Sleep Consultant, and Launch Your Business with Confidence.
Does this sound like you?
You want to earn an honest, realistic income from home doing something that makes a difference. You get skeptical when other work-from-home jobs promise easy 6 or 7 fig incomes working only 15 hours a week. You just want to support your family, help others, and love what you do.
You’re a nanny, doula, NCS, nurse, or other professional who wants to add sleep consulting to your services to attract more clients, make more money, and help families get better sleep.
You’re sick of begging your boss for permission to mother. You want a flexible career so you can breastfeed your newborn, cuddle your sick toddler, and finally volunteer for that class party.
You’re a stay-at-home mom who craves the freedom of working and the satisfaction of making an income. You want to be present during your kids’ precious growing-up years without waiting to honor your ambitions and build something for yourself.
You’ve experienced the transformative power of healthy sleep in your own family by working with a sleep consultant. Now, you want to rescue others from the dysfunction and dread of chronic sleepless nights.
You’ve taken another sleep consulting course and are unsatisfied because you don’t have the expert knowledge you want or the support you need to find clients. Or, you’re already consulting and struggling to help your clients achieve the wins you promised.
Most importantly…
You want an expert-level sleep consulting course that goes beyond the basics. You’re not after the quickest, easiest, cheapest way to become a certified sleep consultant. You want a course taught by medical, education, and business experts that tests your knowledge, prepares you for real-world consulting, and teaches you how to build a thriving business step by step.
If this resonates with you, the IPSP Sleep Consultant Certification Course was designed just for you.
You do want to become a sleep consultant but…
You don’t want to take a course where the instructor’s only qualifications are “sleep consultant and mom.”
Of course consulting experience and real-life empathy are valid qualifiers for any instructor. However, they shouldn’t be the only ones. Responsible, quality sleep consulting requires knowledge of medical topics like maternal mental health and infant nutrition. Plus, only medical professionals can teach you when to consult with your client’s pediatrician, how to avoid getting sued because you accidentally gave medical advice, and when to refer out if consulting isn’t an appropriate solution.
The IPSP® Sleep Consultant Certification Course is the only program taught by a Registered Nurse and endorsed by pediatricians.
Your instructors are RNs, lactation consultants, doulas, and educators with a variety of degrees and certifications. Our faculty are properly certified to teach lessons in their areas of expertise such as sleep science, breastfeeding, abusive head trauma, postpartum depression, and more. In addition, a pediatrician certified in pediatric sleep medicine and a doctor of social work advise on course materials.
When clients ask where you got your certification, you’ll feel confident knowing you were trained by actual experts.
This was the only course I found offered, that has an actual instructor in the medical field.
My experience with the training course was great. I really liked the fact that you can work at your own pace. The information laid out in the course was very thorough but still written in a way that was easy to understand. Violet was quick to answer questions and very helpful.

Violet’s Story
It was Christmas Day of 2005 when my boss said “If you leave, you won’t have a job to come back to”
My heart ached to be home with my family. I was in tears, pleading with my boss to let me leave my shift early. Lose my job or lose precious memories with my family. A devastating choice. And it wouldn’t be the last one I had to make.
I wish I could say I stormed out anyway. But the reality is, I needed the job.
Instead, it took over a decade of choosing between my family and my career before I reached my breaking point.
I was determined to be more present for my kids without giving up the part of my career I truly cherished- helping families thrive.
So, I used my knowledge of sleep medicine and my research skills to pivot from nursing to sleep consulting.
My only regret…
Is not starting sooner. In 2024, I work from my kitchen table while my girls do their homework, under palm trees in Florida when Connecticut freezes me out, in the school pick-up line, or nestled in an armchair at my favorite coffee shop.
More importantly, I can drop everything without asking for permission when my kids get sick, have a snow day, or want me to come on a field trip.
If I had told 2005 me where I was now, I probably would have had the courage to quit my job a lot sooner. And saved years of frustration and boatloads of tears missing school plays and family holidays.
As I continued consulting…
I started to notice a BIG PROBLEM in the industry.
You’ve probably noticed it too. The number of sleep consultant certification schools keeps increasing. But none are taught by a faculty of medical, education, and business professionals putting you at serious legal risk!
I decided to found IPSP in 2014 so you can learn from a credible, science-based school that clients trust.
Now, I teach and mentor sleep consultants who started out just like me. You don’t have to sacrifice one half of yourself to have the other. Let me show you how to have the work/life balance you deserve!
Here’s why students have been choosing IPSP since 2014…

“When searching for a program, I wanted one that blew me away.”
“I knew if I was going to spend the time and money to give this my all… I wanted the best!”
When searching for a program – I wanted one that blew me away. I knew if I was going to spend the time and money to give this my all… I wanted the best! My husband and I are both low-income teachers but knew I didn’t want to choose a program just based on the price. I wanted to learn and become the best consultant and I can be! I am so happy with my choice!!!
This was a fantastic program! I feel prepared and ready for this journey! I feel confident to help parents and answer questions that come my way.

The IPSP Promise – By the end of the course, you’ll have everything you need to feel confident in your success.
“I feel confident starting my sleep consultant business with the information that was provided in this course.”
The IPSP program came highly recommended to me from another certified sleep consultant. It is well written and easy to follow. I feel confident starting my sleep consultant business with the information that was provided in this course.
“I feel confident working with new families and I believe if I have questions or concerns, I can reach out to IPSP for guidance”
This course is worth the money! The layout is easy to follow, the quizzes & case studies keep you on your toes, the material (and links to different areas) are all current and I like having the library files for references.
I looked at different courses before deciding on IPSP, I felt the communication with Violet was clear and not pushy, all the different methods of sleep training are covered in great detail, I feel confident working with new families and I believe if I have questions or concerns, I can reach out to IPSP for guidance. Also, there are no annual fees!
“I’m confident to start with real clients.”
It’s a complete course. I’ve learned so much over the last few weeks and I’m confident to start with real clients. It also met my expectations of the kind of coach I want to be (gentle, no cry-it-out). The value for money is great with IPSP.
If this sounds like exactly what you need, but you’re still afraid of change…
Want to know what’s better than always wondering “What if…”
Being scared and doing it anyway. Maybe you’re thinking “Do I have to make aesthetic Insta posts for my business?” “I don’t know how to set up a website!?” “What if my clients hate my sleep plans?”
The doubts swirling around in your head are all valid. We hear you. That’s why this course is step-by-step. You don’t have to become a business wizard and sleep guru all at once. Violet will always be a text or email away to help you.
But, big change always means some amount of uncertainty. In fact, if you are afraid of failure, that’s a good thing. It means you genuinely care enough to show up and put the work in to be successful.
You’ve got this. One step at a time.
“Deciding to leave my teaching and reading specialist position was the scariest thing I’ve ever done.”
Getting certified through IPSP was the best choice I’ve ever made. It has created a second income to support my family and do something that truly makes a difference.
That desperately tired mom convinced she’s a failure? That inconsolable baby who can’t sleep more than an hour at a time? They need you. Your heart, your empathy, your expertise.
It’s your turn to earn more, build your business, and be there for your family when it matters most.

How does the IPSP Sleep Consultant program compare to other programs ?
There has been a recent uptick in so-called “Sleep Consultant Certifications” and not all were created equal.
We encourage you to do your due diligence in researching the credibility of the school you will be enrolling in, especially if the cost seems too good to be true.
If a course costs less than $3,000 This is a major red flag that the program might not employ instructors, a common. This is a common cost-cutting tactic among ‘pop-up’ programs and can significantly limit your chances of success.
Many programs lack what you need to be a successful sleep consultant or are outright copy-and-paste fraudulent programs.
We want you to be successful even if it’s not with us, so we created a detailed guide on how to spot fraudulent programs here. You can also view this helpful chart.
Is “certified sleep consultant” a regulated title like a doula or IBCLC?
The short answer is no. But with so many fraudulent courses popping up, the title will likely become regulated soon. That means that sub-par certifications that don’t have credentialed instructors and aren’t evidence-based could be meaningless in the coming years.
How long does this certification last?
Unlike other programs, we provide lifetime certification. You won’t pay any renewal fees, and you’ll have access to the course materials, plus any updates, forever!
How does IPSP keep its costs so low?
IPSP® is among the very lowest-cost schools of its kind. But we never skimp on quality. In fact, all of our staff is trained in education, law, or the medical profession to give you the best education you can get.
We do this by employing trained staff with experience in managing website dashboards and modules, uploading top-notch content and offering a multi-pronged personal plus online approach. We constantly update our programs so you’re getting the very latest regulatory and practical information. So you won’t see a sudden jump in price like some extremely low-cost programs that surprise you on the back end with unexpected costs.
YOUR RECIEVE NO HIDDEN COSTS
Curious about what goes into the price tag of your education –– and why “cheaper” isn’t always better? Read our article about Choosing the Best Sleep Consultant Certification.
Is the IPSP Sleep Consultant Certification program "accredited"?
Yes, our program is accredited by the American Academy of Drugless Practitioners (AADP)!
The AADP is an independent accrediting board for alternative health educational institutions and programs.
As an additional benefit, IPSP graduates are eligible to apply as board-certified holistic health practitioners by the AADP.
I’m interested in more than one class. Is there a discount?
Yes! IPSP offers Bundles –– three different options for enrolling in our most in-demand classes at the same time, so you save money.
