Membership to the International Association of Child Sleep Consultants

It is the IACSC’s goal, to bring together Child Sleep Consultants world-wide to share their knowledge, training, and support in this ever growing industry. IACSC’s focus on continuing education allows our members to stay up to date on the latest research and help build on their knowledge base and educational training.

IACSC Regular Member Requirements:

We invite individuals who’s primary business focus is in Child Sleep Consulting, such as a (Child/infant Sleep Consultant, Child/infant Sleep Coach) and who’s website is specifically geared towards helping families with sleep issues.

We invite individuals with advanced specialized degrees focusing on children’s sleep. Pediatric Pulmonologists would fall into this category

Here at the IACSC, we do not endorse or list specific training programs, however the IACSC’s Board Members feel strongly that specific certification training in the area of children’s sleep should include at the very least these components:

Child Sleep Consultant Certifications/Training should include a minimum of 50+ hours of training with a qualified instructor.*
The certification program should be taught/instructed by an experienced Child Sleep Consultant who has been practicing solely as a Child Sleep Consultant for over 10 years.*

* Not including self taught on-line training/certification (no instructors present).

IACSC Associate Members:

This membership category invites individuals who work with families in areas of sleep but is not their “primary” business focus and experience. Associate members believe in the IACSC’s mission, want to utilize IACSC’s educational programs to further educate themselves in this unique area of practice. Associate members will use the IACSC’s educational resources to grow their expertise in the area of children’s sleep. Individual’s who are interested in learning more about children and sleep such as Doulas, Newborn Care Specialists, Lactation Consultants, Social Workers, Psychologists, Family Counselors, MD’s, RN’s for example might have interest in this membership category.
