What can we offer,
Professionals providing support to families may face a number of challenges in their work. These challenges may include limited expertise in related fields, an overly demanding schedule that leaves little time for research or further education, and difficulties in delivering satisfactory outcomes to clients.
As a result, some professionals may have to turn clients away or refer them to others for assistance.
The SleepTalk® Process presents an alternative approach to supporting families. Despite its simplicity, some professionals may initially be skeptical of its efficacy.
However, they often come to appreciate its benefits once they have seen the positive results it can bring to their families. Additionally, a lack of familiarity with best business practices may pose challenges for professionals in establishing and running a successful practice.
Our series of training provide professionals with a clear path to empowering themselves with the confidence, knowledge and skills to share this tried and trusted process with their clients.
Thereby improving and expanding their range of modalities as well as start-up and best practices in creating business and marketing opportunities.
Parents, carers and grandparents can not only learn this to benefit their old children but can then play it forward and assist professionally other families in need. Done correctly the SleepTalk® process creates positive changes within the family unit that ultimately ripples out to communities all over the world.
We offer our sessions online and have the flexibility to offer “on-demand courses” and can ensure suitable time frames to accommodate differing time zones.

Hi, my name is Emmalou Penrod from Ogden, Utah, USA. 
I signed up for this course because I wanted to learn more about the SleepTalk® Process and add another service to my business. I expected the course to prepare to confidently teach parents how to use this process and I found it surpassed my expectations.
The presentation was interactive and engaging. All of my questions were answered and the time flew by. As we went through the material, I grew more excited about how this information can help families and how many people can benefit from it.
I am now so looking forward to adding my new status as a Foundation Coach to my website, social media platform and letting parents know how this process will help their children. I would recommend this course to anyone who wants to serve parents and strengthen families.

Brand New Initiative – Welcome to “SleepTalk® Express”
These easy to attend courses are designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills to become an accredited SleepTalk® Foundation Coach or Consultant.
In a world where the demand for family and child-centred professionals is rising.
“SleepTalk Express” offers comprehensive training. As an accredited SleepTalk® professional, you will have the invaluable opportunity to teach parents how to utilise the extraordinary SleepTalk® process with their own children.
Shifting from a traditional format to a more flexible structure of 90 minute modular sessions, offers a range of benefits to parents and professional child and family educators from all over the world.
“SleepTalk® Express”
Enhanced Learning Retention:
The extended format of weekly sessions allows for better knowledge retention and application. With shorter, focused sessions, one has more time to absorb the course material and reflect on the concepts discussed enabling deeper understanding and integration of the SleepTalk® Protocol
Participants ensure that the retention and application of the process are effective. By revisiting the material over multiple weeks, individuals have the opportunity to gain ongoing feedback, reinforce understanding, ask questions, and seek clarification, leading to more comprehensive mastery of the course content.
- Flexible Schedule and Convenience:
The shift to weekly modular sessions of 1.5 hours each provides greater flexibility and convenience for participants. This format accommodates busy personal and professional schedules, allowing individuals to allocate time for the course without significant disruptions.
The shorter duration of each session also ensures that participants can maintain focus and engagement throughout, optimising their learning experience.
- Incremental Skill Development:
The weekly format facilitates incremental skill development, enabling participants to build their expertise gradually. Each weekly session builds upon the previous one, introducing new concepts and techniques while reinforcing previously covered material.
This progressive approach allows for a step-by-step immersion into the SleepTalk® Protocol, ensuring a solid foundation and preventing information overload. Participants can practice and apply the acquired skills between sessions, integrating learning into their professional practice or personal lives.
“Face-to-Face Training”, presentations and workshops to organisations is available on demand.
However, please note the majority of our training and workshops are online and virtual, we are always adding new courses with different times zones as required.

Past Professionals describing their experiences with our courses.
I wanted to say thanks again, the course was fascinating and I can’t put my training manual down! I want to learn as much as I can about The SleepTalk® Process.
It was a little daunting at first when I saw the wealth of experience around the room but you made me feel like I was just as important which gave me the confidence to believe in myself.
As you may notice by the time I am up at the crack of dawn, I have my first consultation at 9.00 am with a family in desperate need of help to which I am very glad to be able to share my knowledge of The SleepTalk® Process.
I am also enjoying carrying out the process with both my boys. My eldest son who knows of the work I am doing said: “Mummy I think I know when you have done SleepTalk® on me because I wake up feeling all warm inside. It doesn’t get better than that. xxx”

More Feedback on Kerre’s Trainings from past participants and contacts
“Hi Kerre, your training was really a pleasure. I didn’t realise how fast the time was running and learned for myself a lot.
Even knowing the content of the SleepTalk® Process I still learned a lot new and it gave me additional spirit and motivation for my own clients.
It was beneficial to get in contact with other colleagues and have additional input from others. Thanks a lot for this marvelous training. Best Regards,
Past Participant 2020
