12,000+ Families Served
Build Meaningful, Flexible Work as a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant
You want work that’s yours and worth doing, with the room to build it around your life. Sleep Wise hands you the method families already trust, real mentorship, and a team behind you, so the part left to build is the part that’s yours.
You Might Be Exactly Who We’re Looking For
YOU MIGHT BE A GREAT FIT IF:
- You want what you build next to be yours.
- You’re ready for helping families to be a real career, not a free favor on the side.
- You’re ready to roll up your sleeves and build a business, not step into a job someone hands you.
- You’re the one your friends already come to about their baby’s sleep.
- You learn fast, you take coaching well, and you’d rather be mentored than left alone.
- You’d rather build something meaningful with capable women than do something easy alone.
You Know You’re Ready for More. You’re Just Not Sure Where to Start.
Maybe you’ve felt it for a while, a quiet pull toward something that means more, not just more to do.
You want work that’s yours. You want to care about it, be good at it, earn real money doing it, and still have room for the people who matter most.
Then the doubt shows up. How would you even become a sleep consultant in a way that’s real and credible? You wouldn’t know where to start, who would teach you, or how you’d find the families who need you.
That’s the part most people can’t get past on their own. It’s also the part we’ve already built.
You don’t have to choose between doing work that matters and being there for your family, and you don’t have to build it by yourself.
That’s where becoming a Sleep Wise consultant comes in…
You Don’t Have to Build This Alone
Stepping into something new doesn’t mean starting from zero. It means stepping into a method that already works, with training and a team around you.
For more than a decade, Sleep Wise has helped over 12,000 families build healthy, sustainable sleep. Not off a theory, off a proven, research-informed methodology refined across real families, real coaching, and real results.
When you become a Certified Sleep Wise Consultant, you step into that same proven framework.
You’re trained in it. You’re mentored through it by leaders who’ve done this work for years. And you carry a brand families already know and trust.
That’s what we hand you, and it’s a real head start.
Here’s the Part That’s Yours
This is your business. You’re an independent consultant, so you’re the one who shows up for it every day and does the work. We don’t run it for you, and we wouldn’t want to. What we do is hand you a fully stocked toolbox to market, sell, and build, so every hour you put in is pointed in the right direction from day one.
You own what you’re building. We make sure you’re never building it blind.
How This Works
From your first conversation to your first clients, you’re guided and supported the whole way.
Apply
Start with the application. Tell us about your experience, what’s drawing you to this work, and what you’re hoping to build.
From there, you’ll have a conversation with Halie Powell, our Director of Client Experience and Operations. If it’s a strong fit on both sides, you’ll move forward to an interview with Katie Pitts, our Founder.
Train & Certify
If accepted, you’ll join a cohort of women training together, so you’re learning alongside people in the same season instead of figuring it out by yourself. You’ll practice the methodology, bring your questions, and build real confidence before you ever take a client.
Becoming certified is an investment, of your time and your money, the same way starting any business is. What you get for it is a method that works and mentors who’ve done this for years, walking with you the whole way.
Launch with Support
When you start working with families, you’ve got mentorship, marketing direction, real-time feedback, and an active consultant community behind you. When a case gets hard, you bring it to the team, and someone’s almost always there to work it with you.
Bringing in your own clients is part of the work, and we make sure you know exactly how, with clear direction for attracting families and growing a steady, profitable business.
For more than 11 years, Sleep Wise has been serving families with a proven, research-informed approach to healthy sleep.
We’ve helped over 12,000 families build sustainable sleep, and today more than 70 Sleep Wise Consultants are running their own businesses within our brand.
This isn’t a new idea. It’s a refined, trusted system built over more than a decade of real-world results.
Unlike standalone certification programs, Sleep Wise GIVES YOU:
A proven methodology families already trust
Structured, relational training, not just downloadable modules
Ongoing mentorship and accessible leadership
A collaborative team of 70+ consultants
Regular team calls, leadership access, and open communication
Clear direction for marketing within an established brand
A respected national reputation
A clear path to build a business of your own
You’re not handed a certificate and sent on your way. You’re mentored, supported, and invested in as you grow.
Imagine This…
- Sitting with an exhausted parent and watching their confidence come back.
- Opening a message that says, “You changed our lives,” and knowing you earned it.
- Being good at something that’s yours to build, and better at it every month.
- Earning real money from work you care about, with no cap on how far you take it.
- Still being home for the people who matter most, on a schedule you build.
- Belonging to a team of capable women who sharpen you, challenge you, and want to see you win.
This was never just about sleep.
It’s work that fits who you are, and who you’re becoming.
This Isn’t for Everyone (And We’d Rather Tell You Now)
We could make this sound easy. We’re not going to.
Becoming a Sleep Wise consultant is real work. You’re building a business, your business, and we hand you the training, the methodology, the mentorship, and a team that’s already made the mistakes you’d otherwise make alone. What we don’t hand you is the willingness. That part is yours.
So before you apply, read this next section closely.
This Isn’t For You If:
- You want clients handed to you. We give you the tools, the systems, and the training to bring families in. Going and getting them is your work, every week.
- You want someone to run the business for you. We walk beside you. We don’t do it for you.
- You’re not willing to sit with a hard case. Not every family is cookie-cutter. The work is figuring out the child in front of you, and that takes patience and a willingness to troubleshoot.
- You’re not willing to invest your time and your money in becoming two things at once, an expert practitioner and a business-savvy leader. This work asks for both.
- You’re looking for fast, passive, or easy. That’s not what this is, and we’d be doing you a disservice to pretend otherwise.
But if you read that list and felt more pulled in, not less, keep going.
You don’t have to feel ready. Most of our best consultants didn’t when they started. You have to be willing. That we can build on.
FAQ’S
Still Wondering If You’re Ready?
Do I need prior experience or certification to apply?
No prior certification is required. We provide structured training built on the same personalized plan our consultants use with families, so you start with a clear path instead of piecing it together yourself.
Whether you’re brand new to sleep consulting or arriving with related experience, we give you the knowledge, the practical tools, and the confidence to serve families well.
What matters most isn’t your résumé. It’s alignment, coachability, and a real desire to help families. That’s what we train on top of, and it’s what we can’t teach.
What kind of training will I receive?
Our training starts with 4 full days of live virtual training led by our founder, Katie Pitts. From there, you move into 6 months of mentorship and ongoing coaching, over 200 hours of sleep education paired with hands-on support, so you’re never learning in isolation.
And it doesn’t end when training does. You’ll have continued mentorship, a library of resources built from real cases, and a team that stays in it with you as you take on your first families.
What kind of mentorship and community support will I have?
More than you’d expect when you’re starting something new, which is exactly when you need it most.
Our consultants talk in Slack every day, about real cases, hard questions, and everything that comes up when you’re working with families. There are scheduled group calls and live meetings, monthly learning sessions, advanced training, and office hours with Halie and tech support when you need a hand. When you hit something hard, you’re not sorting it out alone. You bring it to the team-based think tank, where experienced consultants work the problem with you.
Say it’s 9pm and you’re stuck on a tough case. You post in Slack, and because there are 70+ of us and someone’s almost always working, you get help, not silence. That’s the part our consultants tell us they didn’t know they needed until they had it.
Starting something new is hard, and you won’t be doing it alone.
Is this remote? Can I set my own schedule?
Yes. Sleep Wise consultants work remotely, from home or anywhere you are, and you build your own schedule around your life instead of the other way around.
This isn’t a 9 to 5. You choose how many families you take on and when you work, which is why it fits so well for moms who want to be there for their own kids and still do work that means something.
You’ll have a few team touchpoints, group calls and live sessions, and your client work happens at times you and the family agree on. Inside that, the shape of your week is yours.
Is this part-time or full-time? What can I expect to earn?
That’s up to you, and it’s one of the things consultants love most about this work.
Most start out earning somewhere around a thousand to a few thousand a month, and it grows from there as you take on more families and get stronger at the business side. Some keep it small on purpose, a few clients a week around nap times. Others build it into a full income.
Where you land depends on you, on how much you put into marketing, sales, and keeping families coming back. There’s no ceiling we set on it. The more you’re willing to build, the more it can grow.
Will Sleep Wise provide me with clients?
Building your own client base is part of the work, and yes, that part is yours. We don’t hand you clients.
But you’re not starting from nothing, and you’re not handling the marketing alone.
You get tools and systems to generate your own leads, including our Schedule Maker, which you can put out to gather people who might be a good fit for your practice. You get it while you’re still in mentoring, not just after you graduate.
Alongside it, there’s training on local outreach, training on social content, and templates you can use from day one. We give you a lot to work with.
I also stay on top of where the market is moving, so the marketing knowledge you’re working with is current, not last year’s playbook.
The clients are yours to grow. The how isn’t something you’ll have to invent by yourself.
Why join Sleep Wise instead of starting my own sleep consulting business?
You can absolutely start a sleep consulting business on your own. A lot of people do. The question is whether you want to do the hardest parts alone.
When you go solo, every tough case is yours to solve by yourself, every marketing decision is a guess, and there’s no one to ask at 8pm when a family is counting on you and you’re not sure what to do next.
At Sleep Wise, you join 70+ consultants and a team-based think tank, so a hard case isn’t you against the problem, it’s the whole team working it with you. You start with a name families already know and trust, training that’s been refined across more than 12,000 families, and people who’ve already made the mistakes you’d otherwise make alone.
You’re still building your own business. You’re just not building it by yourself.
Does everyone who applies get accepted?
No. Not everyone who applies is the right fit, and we think that’s important.
The interview isn’t about whether you’re impressive enough on paper. It’s about whether this is right for you and you’re right for the families you’d serve. We’re looking for alignment, coachability, and a real desire to help families through hard nights. Those are the things we build everything else on top of.
Holding that standard is how we protect the families who trust us, and it’s how we make sure the consultants who join actually thrive here, instead of being set up to struggle.
How soon can I start?
You can begin right away. The application and interview start whenever you’re ready, you’re not waiting on us to open a door for that.
We run three training cohorts a year, and depending on timing, your start date usually lands somewhere between six weeks and a few months out. That gap isn’t downtime. There’s work you can do ahead of training that puts you that much further along before day one, so you arrive ready instead of starting cold.
If Not Now, When?
You don’t have to have it all figured out today. But the quiet pull you’ve been feeling toward work that means more, that rarely fades on its own. It waits, and shows back up a season later, and another after that.
One day that turns into wondering what would have happened if you’d tried.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO STAY THERE.
The first step is just an application and a conversation.
What our consultants are saying
Structured, yet flexible. Supportive, yet leaving me room to grow and learn. Sleep Wise is the perfect blend of everything a fulfilling career should be, all while changing families’ lives and knowing I’m making a real difference in this world.
900+ Google Reviews
With a background in teaching and nannying, becoming a pediatric sleep consultant felt like a natural fit. Helping parents find rest, confidence, and peace is some of the most meaningful work I’ve done.
After experiencing the magic of Sleep Wise as a client, I wanted to know it all. As a self-proclaimed sleep diva who needs sleep to be the best wife, mom, and friend I can be, bringing that knowledge to other parents has been empowering and deeply meaningful. I love being able to give the gift of sleep to anyone who wants it.
Sleep Wise has given me the freedom to be fully present as a mom while also contributing financially to my family. If you’re considering becoming a consultant, don’t hesitate, go for it!
You Don’t Have to Choose
You don’t have to choose between work that matters and being there for your family. But make no mistake, this is something you build.
You build it, you own it, and you decide how far it goes. What you don’t do is build it alone. You step into a method refined across more than 12,000 families over more than a decade, with 70+ consultants and a team that shows up when a case gets hard.
If you want something handed to you, this isn’t it. If you want something that’s yours, with people who’ve done it walking beside you, this is your season to step forward.
