Raising the standard of child sleep support across Ireland.
The IACSP is a non-profit organisation promoting safe, ethical and evidence-informed sleep support for families — and a recognised professional standard for the practitioners who provide it.
Promoting the highest standard of practice.
The sleep consultancy profession is currently unregulated in Ireland — there is no required standard of education, experience or ethics to practise. The IACSP exists to change that: dedicated to safe, ethical, evidence-informed sleep support for families, and a recognised standard of practice for professionals across the country.
