Children’s Sleep Consultant Certification
A career development experience created specifically for professional nannies.
Which is why you already know that when the children you care for don’t sleep well, it throws off the whole day. For the child, for the parents, and for you.
You’re already part of their sleep routines.
-
You know what time they nap.
-
You know how long bedtime takes.
-
You know when they're overtired.
-
You know when something about their sleep has changed.
-
And you're often the person parents turn to when they're exhausted and don't know what to do.
What if you had the professional training to understand WHY it's happening — and what to do about it?
That's what this Certification is about.
12 Hours of Self-Paced Classes to become a Certified Sleep Expert
2 Books Mailed to You to use as ongoing references and read key chapters
Printable Guides & Workbooks to support your learning and future practice
Evidence-Based, Whole-Child-Focused Curriculum with responsive, connection-centered approaches to sleep
Children’s Sleep Consultant Certification + Digital Badge upon completion of 2 exams and certification requirements
4 Live Nanny-Specific Coaching Sessions to help you apply your sleep expertise, become more valuable to the families you serve, and stand out for future opportunities
"The program
provided practical, compassionate tools that I confidently use to support the families I work with every day."
"Completing my sleep training certification with Shannon's School of Pediatric Sleep was a truly transformative experience and the best choice of programs for me. I still find myself returning to the resources to ensure I’m delivering the highest quality care possible."
Hey I'm Shannon Buhera. Over the past six years, I’ve helped more than 200 families transform sleep in their homes. And over the past three years, I’ve helped 40+ sleep consultants start and grow their own successful sleep consulting businesses.
I earned my degree in Elementary & Special Education and spent eight years teaching elementary school. I’ve always been deeply passionate about child development, learning science, and supporting families.
Today, I not only work directly with families virtually and in their homes, but I train and mentor those who want to become certified pediatric sleep consultants and build meaningful, flexible businesses of their own.
"The information felt practical, easy to follow, and very applicable to real families and real life sleep challenges."
“I really appreciated how thorough and thoughtfully organized the program was. I also liked that it encouraged critical thinking instead of pushing one one size fits all approach. Overall, it gave me a strong foundation and helped me feel more confident stepping into this work.”
