G
15:10GemGUEST
And also with the OCN, which is the, the certificate that you want to look for in terms of sleep, and it's OCN London, because there are other OCNs which are, are good, but the highest qualification in baby sleep is OCN Level 6 London.

15:26GemGUEST
So that is the one that you're looking for, and that means that they are covering everything that is important, safe sleep, feeding, um, normal sleep patterns, biological norms, supporting parents.
G
15:39GemGUEST
So if you do OCN, whatever your kind of background before, that is a really important qualification, and so for parents to look for that too.
G
15:48GemGUEST
