We became Child Sleep Consultants via the “Family Sleep Institute”. We scientific research as the basis of the education, we learnt (among others) about different sleepmethods, the different sleep phases that (young) children go through, what sleep means for children and the influence that sleep has on them. Also the dynamic and relation between parents and children and the influence of sleep on that. The sleepmethodes are part of the course, the most important thing for us is is that a sleepmethod should fit you and makes you feel comfortable as a parent. However, sleepmethodes are only a part of sleepcoaching, it really is about the whole picture were different elements play a role. As a graduates from this program, we are part of a worldwide network of Child Sleep Consultants who help each other and share knowledge and information. 

​

We keep ourselves educated on the latest developments. Marian is a certified mindfulness trainer and we have both successfully completed various supporting training courses such as “coaching skills” and “communicating with children”. 

 

Marian is also on the board of the Dutch Association of Child Sleep Coaches (NBKSC). We believe it is important that we guarantee the quality of the child sleep coaches in order to help parents as best as possible.
