The SNOO is a very popular baby bassinet that has been FDA approved for its ability to keep babies safely on their backs.

While the SNOO is a great tool in the newborn time period, your baby can’t go to college in the SNOO and many babies have some difficulty learning independent sleep after using it.

Check out my blog, with interview on , to watch and read all you need to know to make a smooth transition from the SNOO to crib!

Do you need more tips to get your baby transitioned from bassinet to crib? I do in home newborn support to help families with this transition and I also talk about it a lot during my workshops. Comment NEWBORN and I’ll send you all the ways I can support this transition!

We are almost halfway through the year 😳, have you used those FSA/HSA funds yet?

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) and Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are tax-advantaged ways to save for healthcare expenses. And good news, Nested Sleep Services (1:1 support and workshops are typically a covered FSA/HSA service)!

So whether you need a personalized sleep plan or are expecting parents wanting to gain education before your baby is born I can help, and it’s covered.

Let me know any questions you have and let’s use those funds wisely this second half of the year to get your family rested!

I’m constantly in awe—and honestly overwhelmed—by how much information is out there for moms right now.

On one hand, the internet has created incredible communities and resources. On the other… it’s created a lot of pressure for working parents to become experts in everything.

They used to say, “There’s no guidebook to parenting.”

Now? There’s a guidebook, a course, a webinar, 1,000 reels, and a Facebook group for every stage and challenge🙃

Talk about maternal mental load, it’s no wonder we get to mother’s day and feel like we need to go to a spa (and maybe stay there for a year)! But guess what? A once a year spa day isn’t going to cut it!

What moms really need?

💤 Permission to NOT be the expert.
💤 Real, ongoing support.
💤 Sleep. Like, actual sleep.

So if “figure out sleep” is still on your to-do list—maybe it’s time to take it off. Let’s chat about how I can help.

And Dads? This year, in addition to breakfast in bed… let her sleep through the night too. 😴💖

Well April that is a wrap 💫

A fabulous girls trip, my son turned 9, spring break, lots of reading, and so many client joys as everyone came out of winter hibernation mode into the sun ☀️

May can be cray cray with kiddos in school and LOTS of events, but we are excited for wrap up of school and some fun family trips ahead over the coming months!

Want to work together in May? Now booking for mid-May so send me a message to get started!

Last week, I joined a CEO meetup with .co —a powerhouse community that’s helped me grow in ways I never imagined. 🌱

We were asked not just what we do, but what we want our legacy to be.

Most of you know me as a sleep consultant helping families get life-changing rest. But here’s what I really want to be known for:

✨ Helping working parents feel less overwhelmed—because they’re living life rested.

Even 20+ years ago, I was digging into the idea of caregiver burden during my undergrad thesis. That curiosity has never left me. Parenthood pulls us in so many directions—drop-offs, meal prep, wiping bums and noses—it’s A LOT.

My legacy? Supporting parents toward calm, clarity, and consistent sleep. 💤

My signature talks:

🎤 Back to Work, Back to Sleep
🎤 Sleep Training with Support
🎤 The Impact of Caregiving on Sleep

Grateful for this journey and your support in sharing it!

P.S. Know a parenting podcast or group looking for a guest speaker? I’d love to connect!

I’m currently reading a book called Unreasonable Hospitality by Will Guidara.

Most people may wonder, hmmm why is she reading a business book primarily about the restaurant industry? Well, funny story for you! Years before I obtained my nursing degree I actually started out my college career in travel and tourism. I even visited and applied to some of the top hospitality schools. Of course I realized that I had more of a passion in the medical field, but there were a lot of similarities to my career paths.

In the book there is a quote saying that “service is black and white; hospitality is color. “Black and white” means you’re doing your job with competence and efficiency; “color” means you make people feel great about the job you’re doing for them”.

I have always believed that if you give people more than they expect then they will remember how you made them feel. This is true whether it’s the way they serve the dishes to you at a restaurant or whether you are helping their baby sleep through the night!

So all this to say, I am here to wow you! I am not here just help your child sleep and check a box, I am here to support your whole family and connect with you on a deep level. I still keep in touch with my past clients for years!

Are you ready for unreasonable hospitality when caring for your family? I’m your girl!

Tomorrow is the first day of Spring! But spring is more than just time changes and sunny days. Spring can be a time for cleaning, organizing, and a reset into a new season.

That’s why I’m excited to introduce Karen Windholz, owner and creator of , a professional organizing firm in Northern Virginia that helps clients create beautiful and functional organizational systems that are life-changing.

Thank’s Karen for writing about how we can organize a child’s bedroom for sleep success with 3 easy steps!

Why are nap transitions common during sleep training?

Baby sleep cycles last about 50 minutes, much shorter than an adult’s. If independent sleep skills aren’t in place yet, your baby may wake up at the end of each cycle, leading to short, frequent naps—especially if they need help falling back asleep.

But here’s the good news: with sleep training, babies learn to connect sleep cycles! That’s when naps start to lengthen and consolidate, allowing for a smoother daily routine and an age-appropriate sleep schedule.

A personalized sleep plan can make all the difference—just ask my clients! ⬇️

“Working with Kelsey made the transition from bassinet to crib seamless. She helped us adjust naps and create the right schedule for our baby. Now, I feel so much more confident in our baby’s sleep—without hours of research!”

Ready for longer, more restful naps? Let’s talk!
