Hi, I’m Kelsey! I’m a Mom of a sweet, opinionated and spunky 2 year old girl, expecting another one in July 2026. I live in the San Francisco Bay area with my husband, daughter and 5 year old pup. Throughout the past few years I wished I had access to more firsthand real experiences of what other Moms went through.

There are so many lists and reviews out there, but everyone’s needs and priorities are so different. So I started writing down all my research, experiences and learnings and thought it might be helpful to someone out there. I’ll let you know what we did or bought, why and my thoughts now that I have had time to reflect on those decisions.

I’m by no means an expert in any of this. My goal is to be the friend who shares her notes. Feel free to take what you want and leave what you want.

Grab a coffee (or whatever’s leftover in your mug from this morning) and let’s figure this out together.
