“Great Infant and Child Sleep Consultant Certification course. A lot of content packed into manageable modules. All strategies are backed up by evidences based research. I particularly appreciated the gentle approach with family values and needs at the core. Jackie took the time to meet with me individually to help guide me through planning for my first clients and was readily available for questions and troubleshooting.
