What you pay for a sleep consultant could depend on what kind of service they offer, where they are based, whether they come to see you in your home and what level of experience and expertise they have. It could also depend on how long your session with them lasts and the amount of support you will receive after your initial online or face-to-face meeting. However, as you can see from the table below, pricing can be totally random!
Most sleep consultants only offer online consultations with 2-4 weeks support after the session. All sleep consultants listed below offer analysis of your baby's current routine and sleep as well as a step-by-step plan to follow. Some of these, and many others, also offer an initial "free 15 minute call". Most can be booked online.
The table below shows examples of consultations offer by 7 different sleep consultants. Most have higher and lower priced options that can be found on their websites.
