The first Specialist Training Course, specifically designed for Sleep Consultants who wish to further develop their knowledge and skillset, to become Trauma Informed Sleep Consultants.
This course is evidence-based, in depth training for Sleep Consultants. It explores the bi-directional relationship between sleep and trauma. It explores how trauma can impact many areas of the developing child including brain development, behaviour, emotions and feelings, physical wellbeing and relationships with others. It considers the impact that both Trauma and Adverse Childhood Experiences can have on Sleep, and the emotional and physical wellbeing of children.
However, the course also explores how sleep may act as a protective factor against some of the outcomes commonly associated with Trauma and Adverse Childhood Experiences. And how as a Sleep Consultants, we can adapt our approach to align with neuroscience and a relational approach to caring for children which is Trauma Informed and consistent with child development.
This course focuses on relationships over behavioural approaches, whilst prioritises feelings of safety over behavioural outcomes. It empowers Sleep Consultants to consider the long term impact of sleep, rather than short term gains.
The Trauma Informed Sleep Consultant Training Programme, allows you to work in your own time, at your own pace, but with access to 1:1 ongoing support whilst you study. Meaning that you are able to work around any other commitments that you may have. We know that life can be busy, so making the course accessible to you, at times which suit you allows greater life flexibility, whilst still completing quality, supportive accredited training.
There is the option of availing of flexible payment plans to ensure that quality, evidence based training is available through manageable, affordable instalments. We believe that finances should not be a barrier to quality training.

The Settled Petals Diploma in Family Centred Sleep has provided me with the knowledge and training that I need going forward in my journey.
Susan has tailor made an excellent course; one that looks at the science behind infant sleep, while also understanding the family dynamic. The course covers so much. Susan was on hand at every corner when I needed advice or guidance. The layout of the course and structure was excellent; and each aspect flowed so seamlessly in to the next.
What really stood out to me was how much Susan cares about the whole family and helping everyone obtain a good nights sleep.
You can feel the love that went in to creating the course; a love that is seen throughout all of Susan’s work.
Would highly recommend.
This is an excellent course, I really enjoyed it, it was very informative and I really feel it prepared me for working with families as a sleep consultant.
I loved the structure of the course and how I could work at my own pace through the different modules.
Susan is really kind and supportive.
I would 100% recommend the Settled Petals course to anyone considering training as a sleep consultant.
Susan was such a great help to me during this course. I found the content excellent and the structure and layout of the course very easy to follow. I would not hesitate to recommend this course to anyone thinking about becoming a sleep consultant.
I have recently completed the pediatric sleep consultant course at Settled Petals and I cannot praise it highly enough. Everything (and I mean EVERYTHING!) you could possibly need to not only become a sleep consultant but also to start your own business is included in this comprehensive and informative course.
I found the material so interesting and detailed but also very easy to follow and concise.
Susan was an excellent mentor and always on hand to help and I would highly recommend this course and indeed the other courses Susan offers to anyone looking to get into any of the areas she covers.
