Ever have a parenting moment that feels completely surreal and ridiculous, like: *there’s no way this is actually happening right now*? Let me tell you about the time my babysitter gave my kids coffee at bedtime. 😮

(I hope you don’t mind… I’m trying something out where I cross-post our small business’s posts here.

If you’re still reading this… :) the backstory is I’ve revamped our content and email marketing efforts— oops, I lost you at the word "marketing”. Well the point is we realized as a business that our mission is to *help families get better rest* and physical products get you only so far in that effort. Our founder, my wife, has legit expertise in treating sleep issues, as a psychologist, so… anyway, here's why we're doing this:

And if you're a parent who could use better rest, I hope you’ll sign up for our newsletter. Feedback encouraged!

OolieBetter Sleep and a Peaceful HomeDear friend, I’ve had an epiphany. Parenting can be magical and infinitely rewarding, yet it’s also the hardest job you’ll ever have — and it’s 24/7, every day, for the rest of your life. You never stop being a parent. For such a demanding job, getting the rest you need (and deserve) makes it easier. Better rested parents are more available and more present with their kids and partners. Better rested families are healthier, happier, more connected, and more resilient. I have a vision in which every family gets better rest and lives together more peacefully. Because with more rest, parents and kids are happier, families are more calm and secure, and we can model, build, and sustain healthy relationships in which everyone gets their needs met. — That’s why I started Oolie: to help families get better sleep. But my epiphany was that even the most well-designed and constructed organic bedding and baby products aren’t enough to get us there. The keys to better sleep are in how we live each day. As a clinical psychologist, I’ve specialized in treating insomnia and other sleep challenges. I am familiar with the latest research on sleep and how to cultivate the conditions for a successful night’s rest. As a parent to three young children, I’ve learned how to get myself and my kids a good night’s sleep. (Okay, maybe not every night, but most nights!) I’m going to start sharing more of what I’ve learned with you, through this email newsletter and blog. Look for a new post from me every Sunday morning. You can expect: personal stories about what’s helped me and my kids insights about the science of sleep baby steps to get you better sleep Thanks for being here. Sleep well,Nora
