The Gentle Sleep Coach Program is the first and most extensive professional sleep coach training and certification program available to teach gentle sleep strategies.
The program involves over 8️⃣0️⃣hours of training with a faculty panel that includes medical doctors, a psychologist, an attorney, lactation counselor, postpartum doulas and a family therapist.
Some of the training topics included:
🔹Basic counseling and child development.
🔹Sleep science and behavioral modification techniques to help parents of children age 0 to 6 years old.
🔹Secure attachment theory.
🔹Support for the breastfeeding mother.
The training also consisted of lectures from top specialists, including:
🎓Postpartum Depression from Dr. Shoshana Bennett, author and leading specialist on Postpartum Depression.
🎓Medical Conditions and Sleep Apnea in Children led by Dr. Lewis Kass, Director of Children’s Sleep Center.
🎓GERD and Sleep led by Dr. Anthony Loizides, pediatric gastroenterologist.
📝Each coach must pass an exam and participate in case supervision with Kim West, LCSW-C (a.k.a. “the Sleep Lady”) who has been helping tired parents for over 20 years.
📚And once you're a certified Gentle Sleep Coach, clinical supervision and ongoing advanced training are required to maintain your certification.
Yes, GSC take your children's sleep seriously!
❗️Unless someone is personally selected and trained by Kim West, they cannot claim they're Gentle Sleep Coaches.
I often get asked « when should we move our child to a big bed? »
I usually say the later the better.
