Meet the Bertelsens

Justin and Jill Bertelsen founded Crib Coaching LLC after sleep training their first child, Ross. After many sleepless nights, Jill sought the help of a sleep expert. She already had a background in Marriage and Family Studies, but when she learned about a sleep certification program she decided this new course could really help her family. That experience planted a passion for parent education in Jill. 

While hosting a parenting class, Jill learned how important and challenging it can be to get parents and childcare providers on the same page. From there, she and Justin launched Bertelsen Education where they provide continuing education training to childcare providers and offer support to parents. 

The Bertelsens live in Idaho with their three children and dog, Smokey.
