This episode? I’m obsessed.
Kelsey Cook is a certified teacher, entrepreneur, and mom of four who built a nationwide subscription box business that now ships over 14,000 boxes a month. And she started it while raising her kids and running a preschool... all during nap time.
In this episode, we talk about what it really looks like to start a business as a stay-at-home mom, how to grow something meaningful without burning out, and why starting small is sometimes the smartest strategy of all.
Here’s what you’ll hear:
- How a few preschool packets on her porch turned into a full-blown subscription box business
- What made her say yes to launching before she felt “ready”
- How she balanced building a brand while raising four young kids
- The real reason parents love her boxes (hint: it’s not just the activities)
- The mindset shifts that helped her stop overthinking and start scaling
This is the episode for every mom sitting on a business idea but feeling like there’s no time, no space, and no way to make it happen. Kelsey proves it’s possible to build a business that works with motherhood, not against it.

Have the absolute pleasure ofbeing able to talk to Kelsey Cook.
And this might be one of myfavorite episodes ever.
So Kelsey is a certifiedteacher, an entrepreneur, and a mom
of four.
And she's on a mission to makeearly learning easier and way more
fun for parents everywhere.
(00:21):
After six years in theclassroom and a degree in early childhood
and elementary education, shetraded lesson plans for packing tape
and launched Learning withKelsey, a subscription box that turns
turns everyday moments intohands on learning adventures for
little ones.
What started as a passionproject in her living room during
COVID is now a go to resourcefor families across all 50 states
(00:44):
where she helps parents ditchthe overwhelm and spark curiosity,
connection and confidence withtheir kids.
And her story is so amazingand I know you're gonna love it.
So let's dive in.
Welcome to mompreneur Mastery,where we build businesses, raise
families, and skip the hustle.
That doesn't actually help.
I'm Syd o', Brien, certifiedInstagram strategist, mom of three
(01:06):
and your no Fluff guide tomaking more sales with content that's
strategic, simple, and you canactually make in the small mom cracks
of your day because Instagramshouldn't feel like a full time job
you're not getting paid for.
If you're ready to stopposting just to stay visible and
start sharing content thatactually converts to sales and gets
you clients, you're in theright place.
(01:28):
All right, now, before we getinto your business, Kelsey, can you
tell us a little bit about howyour business got started?
Yeah.
So I was a teacher.
I taught third grade and thenI taught kindergarten.
And then when I had my firstbaby, I decided to stay home because
it was so hard to do teachingand have a baby.
(01:48):
It was so crazy.
And so I stayed home and thenI missed teaching so much and so
I was like, okay, what can Ido that would still do teaching but
be able to be home?
And so I started a preschoolout of my home and I taught preschool
for four years and it was so fun.
It was like the perfect mix.
(02:09):
It was two hours, twice a week.
I had two kids at the timethat I was doing it, and my older
son got to be in.
It was so fun.
And then Covid happened and soI had to close preschool.
And after closing preschool, Iwas like, okay, these little kids
are at home.
I miss them.
We did so many fun things atthe end of the year.
What can I do?
So I started putting togetherlittle packets for them of things
(02:31):
that we would have done inpreschool and leaving them on the
porch for their moms.
And so the moms would come getem and do them.
And they started sharing aboutem on Instagram.
And so I was like, okay.
More people were kind ofreaching out to me in my neighborhood,
just saying, oh, can I get oneof those?
Because, like, we don't knowwhat to do with our kids.
And I was like, okay, well,maybe I could sell these.
So I started selling them forlike $15 a packet, I think is what
(02:55):
I did.
And I made an Instagrambecause I was like, okay, I'm going
to kind of talk about these somewhere.
And more people in otherstates wanted them.
So I was mailing packets and Ikind of was like, okay, I feel like
this is an actual thing morethan just like this pandemic need.
Like, people are loving beingable to do activities.
(03:15):
And kind of as a teacher andmom, I had this unique perspective
that not everyone has.
And so I was like, okay, I'mgoing to go all in.
I sent.
I, at the time had done like50 packets.
And so I'm like, okay, I'mgonna do a box.
I'm gonna put it in a box.
It's easier to send.
Cause I was mailing them in envelopes.
And that's how it started.
And then we've just gone fromthere and it's just been crazy.
(03:38):
That's so cool.
That's like quite the origin story.
Like, you're like, say it quick.
And I'm like, well, it's kindof long.
Totally fine.
Like, it needs to be that longto go from the beginning to the end.
It's like, yeah.
Wow, that's incredible.
It's so fun.
Yeah.
Pandemic.
There were definitely some.
Some big negatives there, butthe creativity is like, kind of interesting
(04:03):
to see at the same time, like,how people worked with it.
And like, yeah, so that was areally cool story.
And then how long was it fromlike, when you started leaving packets
on your porch to when you hadlike, like mailing boxes and like
a more subscription type of thing?
So I started doing the packetsin March 2020, and I did boxes in
(04:29):
September.
So like, just a few months.
But when I really made like,what I have now, which is 20 activities
in a box, was about a year later.
So August of 2021 is when Ilaunched those.
And yeah, so since then we've grown.
I sent 14,000 boxes last month.
So it's just been insanity.
(04:49):
Yeah, I can imagine.
What was the moment where youwere like, oh, my gosh, I have to.
I have to like, do More andmake this a legit business.
So I actually, I had a friendof a friend, actually that was owned
a business.
She owned a really cool, like,kid sock company.
And she reached out to me andwas like, hey, can we go to dinner?
(05:13):
Like, I think you have areally good idea here.
And so I went out to dinnerwith her and this was like in the
summer when I was still doing packets.
And she's like, I think thiscould be a business and I think you
should just go for it.
And I didn't really know herthat well.
That's not something that Iwould have ever, like, done.
I kind of was like, I don'tknow how to do a business.
And she's like, you can do it,so just do it.
I think this is a good ideaand you should just do it.
And I was like, okay, I'm justgoing to do it.
(05:36):
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Sorry.
I was kind of thrown by my kidcoming in.
That's literally the story ofmy life.
I'm like, I.
So I have four kids now.
So I'm like, I've built thisbusiness with babies on my lap, feeding
babies, pregnant.
So my kids are always cominginto every meeting that I have.
All the time.
All the time.
It's the best.
(05:57):
How old are your kids now?
So I have 9, 7, 4, and then 18 months.
Oh my goodness.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I hope I only have three, butthey're also like closer in age.
Mine are, yeah, seven, six and four.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah.
So, yeah, I, I can, I canunderstand the chaos part of it for
(06:20):
sure.
Yeah.
And I do feel like my third.
That was like my hardesttransition was having a third baby.
Because I'm like, it was a crazy.
All of a sudden you feel likethere's so.
And yours, like, are the same.
Mine, I had five, three, andthen a newborn.
And so it's like everybody'sat home, nobody's at school yet.
And it was just chaos.
So adding a fourth was like,oh, my gosh, we already have chaos.
(06:41):
So it's easy.
Yeah.
That's interesting.
I would think four.
I would just be like, no, I can't.
Adding another one.
Really?
I'm like, I know, like, what already.
Is going on here, which is a lot.
Adding one more just like,what's one more?
Yeah.
And you're like, the olderones are kind of more self sufficient,
you know, they could do morethings, which is nice.
(07:04):
Yeah.
How hard was it to like buildand grow that business with young
kids out?
It was so hard.
I'M like, I did, I did a lotduring nap and bedtime because, you
know, I was like, I quitteaching because I wanted to be home.
So I'm like, I now don't wantto, like, be working 247 because
(07:26):
I love being a mom.
That's like my number one priority.
So I. I would do it during napand bedtime.
And then that became like,crazy because I felt like I was never
off, you know, like, I wouldstay up so late, I would never have
a second where I wasn't beingeither mom or business.
Right.
So it was really hard.
But my husband is like mynumber one supporter, my number one
(07:48):
teammate, and he kind of wasalways saying to me, like, if it's
too much, like, hire it out.
Like, you can do this, this,this, and then let other people do
something else.
And so that was hard for mebecause it was like my baby, you
know, and like saying, okay,now someone else do this part of
it.
But that was like my biggestreason for success, I think, is that
I was able to bring on a teamof people that have been so helpful
(08:12):
to me and have helped me growand learn.
And yeah, my husband actuallyquit his job in December and is working
full time with me now, whichis so much better.
I'm like, I love that.
That's way better to have.
Have him doing so many thingswith me because it was, you know,
for a while it was like, okay,he's doing his full time job.
I can't, I can't expect him tohelp me.
And he would help me when hegot home, but then it was just chaos.
(08:34):
So that's been really, really great.
That's so cool.
I love that you're able tooutsource like that.
I.
It's so important to be ableto delegate.
Even like in just parenting,like, you can't do it all on your
own.
You got to have that village.
So it makes sense.
Like, you need that inbusiness too, for that success without
completely, like, burning out.
(08:55):
It's so stressful.
Yeah.
And I think, like, the morethat I've talked about business and
like, I always thought, like,okay, I'm not a business person.
Like, I don't know business.
I'm not.
It's so hard for me to evenconsider myself an entrepreneur because
I'm like, I'm a teacher, I'm a mom.
It's so, it's so foreign to me.
But the more I talk about it,the more I'm like, there's so many
similarities between being amom and being an Entrepreneur and
(09:18):
so many things that, so manyskills that we learn as moms that
translate exactly over into business.
For me, like I, I've learned,like you said, delegating like a
village is so important.
And I've learned that in mykids lives, having a coach or a teacher
or someone else talk to themand share advice with them and give
them something I can't is so powerful.
(09:40):
Just like me reaching out tosomeone maybe that is really great
at marketing or really greatin another area that I'm not.
It's such a value to my team too.
Yeah, absolutely.
And I think, I think thebiggest skills that translate are
time management and like flexibility.
Like.
Yeah, those are so importantwhen you're a business owner.
(10:02):
Yeah.
And as a mom, you know, youlearn, you fit things in everywhere.
So we're the ultimate multitaskers.
Yeah, absolutely.
Like, I feel like the mostcommon one at my house is like my
kids get really into certainkinds of foods or snacks and if we
run out or like it's gone bador something, you always gotta have
a backup plan.
It's like that in business too.
You gotta just be able to rollwith it and like just keep going,
(10:24):
adapt and move on.
Yeah.
And I'm.
And I feel like, like when youbecome a mom, you're like, oh, I
know what I'm gonna do.
And then you find out.
Okay.
There's so many things I don't know.
Yeah.
And that's the same with business.
I'm like there every day.
I'm like, oh, new issue that Ihad no idea that even existed.
But you're right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The same thing like every.
I feel everyone's a perfectparent until they're a parent.
(10:47):
And then everyone's a perfectbusiness owner.
Until they're a business.
Exactly, Exactly.
Oh my gosh.
So what about your boxes?
Makes them so unique and makeseveryone love them.
Do you think so?
I, I'm really passionate aboutearly childhood education, but also
(11:08):
about parent involvement andparent connection.
Because I think that is thebest thing that you can do for your
kid is foster this greatrelationship in those early years.
So my boxes are more than justlike, you're giving your child something
to do with them.
It's something that moms ordads or whoever's doing with them
is sitting down and doing with them.
So it's more about theconnection point that you're getting
(11:31):
10 to 15 minutes a day whereyou're getting to do an activity
with them.
You're all involved with them,you're making them Your focus of
their, your attention.
And I think that is where likethe magic happens with my boxes.
They're fun activities.
I love the activities.
Obviously I'm excited about them.
But at the end of the day Ithink like the parent connection
is like the most special partabout it.
(11:52):
That'S so, so important.
And I feel especially for mombusiness owners where it's very easy
for us to get bogged down inlike the constantly going between
like work and business.
And like you always have thesethings on the back of your mind where
it's very hard to be likepresent and in the moment.
So having like the pre, likedetermined activity like all laid
out where you can have thatconnection you need, but it's also
(12:14):
not something you have to likecome up with on your own because
you just don't have the brainspace for it would be like incredibly
helpful.
Yeah, it's so nice becauseeven I kind of found that even as
a teacher, as someone that'sdone so many activities in my time,
like with a two year old,sometimes I was like, okay, what
do I do?
And I'm like, well, I can lookthis up, I can find.
(12:35):
But then, then by that pointit's gone.
You know, your moment ofteaching or connecting is gone.
Yeah.
And then it's like, well, Ihave to get like these supplies for
it and like run to the storefor this.
Like.
Yeah.
Yes.
So they come with everythingthat you need to do the activities
and like in the perfect amount.
Because I also found if youwant to use pom poms, like you have
(12:55):
to order a thousand off Amazon.
And nobody wants a thousandpom poms at their house.
No, no one wants that.
We did that like one time andmy kids started eating them and I
was like, we're done.
This is a problem.
I can't.
It was like finding them onthe couch for weeks.
Oh my gosh.
Yes.
Yes.
It's too much.
It's chaos.
That's so funny.
(13:16):
And now we are a homeschoolfamily and my kids were.
Well, my youngest is at thatage where a lot of the learning we
do is done through play.
Because it's not like a fouryear old's going to like sit and
listen to me like yap abouthistory or something.
Yeah, for sure.
Is there like, are there moreeducational components in your boxes?
(13:40):
Yeah.
So we have different boxes.
We have four, five different ones.
So I do them by age becauseanother thing that I found was like
I would see activities thatwere for a 2 to 4 year old and I'm
thinking, okay, there's no wayit's for a two and a four year old.
Those are so, so different.
So different.
Sounds like they would besimilar, but.
No, no, they're not even close.
(14:01):
And even I would say liketeaching preschool, I'm like, I can
tell a spring birthday from afall birthday kid, you know, even
like those six months make ahuge difference.
So I have a toddler box, apreschool and a kinder prep for our
activities.
So they're very geared totheir ages.
So like for the four year oldbox, they're working on fine motor
(14:22):
skills, but they're alsoworking on introducing letters, tracing
letters, scissor skills, likesimple things like that, color matching,
counting.
But they're doing it in a fun way.
So like for instance, in thislast box, it was the May box is all
about flowers and gardens andthey had flowers with a pipe cleaner
with a number on them and theywere threading beads onto the pipe
(14:43):
cleaner.
So they're getting to, it'sfun, it's exciting for them.
But then they're also gettingto count.
They're getting to practicefine motor.
They're getting to practiceeven like number order.
So there's so many differentlittle things that they're working
on.
That's so nice.
And then like, yeah, the morefun it is, the more likely they'll
actually like do it and learnfrom it too.
(15:04):
Oh yeah, yeah, you gotta have it.
I love themes and I thinkthat's the teacher in me that loves
a good theme.
So every box is themed monthlyand everything is around that theme.
So like our June boxes, oceans.
And so there's so many funthings that they're getting to do
with ocean animals, withseaweed, like all these different
things.
I love that so much.
Like, yeah, I know my kidswhen we do like little mini unit
(15:27):
studies and everything isaround a theme, they, it's like when
they're most engaged for sure.
Yes.
It's so funny.
But I'm like, I, I love aholiday, so I get it.
Yeah, same.
(16:44):
What was something you wishmore moms knew about starting a business
with kids at home?
I think I wish more moms wouldjust go for it.
That's kind of what I'velearned is I just put things out
without like second guessingit, which is not really my personality.
So it's so funny that I'vebeen able to do that in business.
(17:04):
But I think because I felt soexcited about it and I loved it so
much that I was just like, I'mjust gonna do it I'm not doing this
with the purpose of this isgonna be a huge business.
This is gonna be whatever.
And so I was like, I'm justgoing to make a logo on Canva.
I'm just going to throw Googlehow to do a website and just try
it.
Because you can always change things.
You can always perfect things.
You can always make them better.
(17:25):
But I think, like, that firststep of just doing it is the best
way to get it out there.
So don't wait till you havethe perfect name.
Don't wait till you have theperfect logo.
Just put it out there and thensee where it goes.
That is such great advice.
And I feel like the.
Not for, like, my wholebusiness, but, like, for different
offers, specifically.
The more I come up withsomething and am excited about it
(17:48):
and, like, put it out therebefore it might not super be ready.
But, like, we can tweak italong the way.
That, like, man.
And is, like, catching and is,like, great for marketing and attracting
new people.
And you're so excited about itbecause you know how good it is.
And you are normally like,your own ideal client or customer.
So, like, they need it too.
(18:09):
So, yeah, definitely jump in.
It's not.
It's not about being perfect.
Yeah.
Cause it can get hard.
And especially, like, you'retaking in other people's opinions
or, you know, like, you kindof have to just, like, tune it out
and just say, like, I like this.
I'm gonna do it.
Yeah.
And I feel like the more,like, outside opinions I get, the
more bogged down I get.
(18:30):
And I'm like, is this a good idea?
Should I do this?
Should I scrap it?
Should I change this or that?
And I'm like, no, just ahundred percent.
Just because the opinions youreally need are yourself.
From having to do the work andmaking sure it fits within your life.
And also the people buying itbecause you want them to, like, benefit
from it, obviously.
But, like, there's a lot ofoutside noise a lot of the time from
(18:51):
random people.
And I'm like, sometimes that'svery valuable.
Sometimes.
Yes, it's not.
Yep.
You have to, like, take whatworks for you and then leave what
doesn't.
Yeah.
And if it.
You try it and you know itdoesn't work, don't feel bad about
leaving it, no matter who it'scoming from, because you know, you
know your own experiences best.
For sure.
(19:12):
Mm.
And I think that's anotherthing where motherhood has really
helped me.
I think that I've gained somuch confidence in becoming a mom.
And, and growing with my kids,and that's helped me to be more confident
in business.
Like, you know, when you havea kid, you have to.
You're their number oneadvocate and you have to be the one
to say things.
And you can't, you can'tsecond guess every single time.
(19:32):
You just have to be confidentthat you know what you're doing.
And I think that has helpedtranslate over into business so much
for me.
Yeah.
Now that you mentioned it, I'mlike, huh, yeah, me too.
I can definitely see that.
The, that advocacy, likebefore kids, I was like, very.
I don't know if I want tostick up for myself.
I'll just like, you know, be apeople pleaser and go along with
(19:52):
this.
But now I'm like, exactly.
I can't.
I don't have.
I can't do that.
That doesn't work for me.
I'm not going to pretend it does.
Yeah.
And that's.
I.
Exactly the same.
I feel like I grew up, I'vebeen a people pleaser for my whole
life like that.
So jumping into being a mom,it was so much, so hard for me to
be like, okay, I'm the onethat has to say, it doesn't matter
what this person's saying.
(20:12):
It doesn't matter what thisperson's saying.
And it's definitely taken practice.
But the more kids that I'vehad and the older my kids have gotten,
I've gotten so much better at it.
And so in business, same thing.
Look, I've.
There's been hardconversations I've had to have that
have been tricky or like,difficult for me to do, but the more
that I do it, the better I getat it.
Yeah, for sure.
(20:33):
It's definitely a skill andit's not super fun to learn, especially
when you are a mom and you'rejust kind of like thrown into it
like there's no course oranything, but the more.
You do, the easier.
Just go for it.
For sure.
Yeah.
Yep.
For sure.
Fake it till you make it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What is of advice you wouldgive to a mom who has maybe like
(20:54):
an idea, but zero time orenergy to pursue it?
I would say start small, youknow, so if you.
Even if it's like you're justsharing about your idea, you're maybe
not offering it for sale orwhatever, but I think just do something
small that gets you in a stepin the right direction and then you
(21:15):
can build on it.
It doesn't matter how long it takes.
You know, you.
Some people take some fiveyears to do something.
Some people take some a week,like just do a little and then that
will kind of help you to seewhat can I give to it, what can I
not?
And in the end, you're theultimate decider.
You know, that's what's socool about being an entrepreneur
is you get to decide what yourtime is.
(21:36):
You get to decide what's most important.
And so I think just doing alittle bit is like the best first
step.
Absolutely.
That's such great advice.
And I feel like that alsorelates to parenting.
Like, different kids aresometimes on different timelines
if there's.
They have different needs orneed different supports.
So not comparing yourself andyou're like, what other people are
(21:57):
doing, because it's not fairto anyone to compare like your chapter
one or chapter two to their,like chapter 11 over here.
Oh, yeah.
And it's like, you know, I'mthinking like, okay, it took me four
years to even take.
Take money for my business.
You know, I put everythingback into it.
So it's like, yeah, it looksfun now, but like, I was working
for free for a very long time.
(22:18):
Yeah, it takes a lot to get tothat point.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How did being a mom of fourinfluence the way you built your
business?
So I think that it helped mein how I was going to build my team.
You know, I brought on,basically I started by bringing on
(22:39):
all moms, which has beenreally cool, but it helped me to
see, like, hey, this is what'smost important.
I knew that being a mom, beingin present with my kids was my most
important thing.
And so I built everything elsearound that, you know, so I knew
these are the times that I'mnot gonna be available.
These are the things that I'mnot gonna do.
And setting that tone at thevery beginning really helped us as
(23:04):
we kept going.
And so, like right now, mywarehouse, I have 20 women that work
there and they drop their kidsoff at school and they come and they
work at our warehouse until 2o' clock, and then they go pick their
kids up.
And it's like, that has alwaysbeen something that was really important
for me is that the moms wereable to give back to their families
while also getting to be momsand getting to be home, which was
(23:25):
important to them too.
So I feel like that hasinfluenced how I built my business,
who I've brought on my teamand all that.
That's amazing.
I love that so much.
Like, not only for like youand your business, but also helping
other moms as well.
Like, I love working withother moms because they just get
it.
Like, my youngest came in acouple of minutes ago, just handed
(23:47):
me a snack to open, and thenstarted chanting Odd Squad.
Cause that's what they'rewatching right now.
I bribed them with PBS kids tobe able to do this.
I love it.
And, yeah, like, you didn'teven bat an eye.
It's just, like, whatever.
It happens.
Yep.
It doesn't matter.
Yeah.
But being able to help othermoms do that too and be more aware
of their, like, needs andschedules so they can achieve that
(24:09):
as well is, like, really amazing.
Yeah, it's been really cool.
And.
And also, you know, like, momsare so scrappy.
Like, we learned so manydifferent things.
I feel like I've learned.
I've gotten so many greatideas from my.
The moms on my team.
I've gotten so many great,like, tips.
It's just been really incredible.
Yeah.
I started my business as,like, a social media manager, and
(24:31):
then I did it while my husbandwas deployed, and it was, like, the
worst timing in the world.
But, like, bad idea, but fun.
Yeah, exactly.
And then I was like, wait, Iwant other moms to be able to do
this too.
So I, like, switched toworking just, like, marketing just
for moms, for, like, verysimilar reasons.
So, yeah, moms need the help,so I'm glad we were able to.
(24:55):
To do that.
Yeah.
I love it.
It's fun.
And it's.
You know, we have a coupleboys down there now, so we don't
discriminate against our boys,but we need.
We need them.
We definitely need them tolift all the things.
Yeah.
Can definitely understand that.
And can you tell us more abouthow people can get your boxes?
(25:18):
Yeah.
So you can follow me onInstagram at Learning with Kelsey.
And then I have a website,learningwithkelsea.com so you can
order the boxes there.
And then I just share tips andpreviews on my Instagram, too.
Perfect.
Yeah.
And I've been following you,and I love your content.
Thank you very much for that.
Oh, good.
Thank you.
You know, content's hard.
(25:38):
It is.
It is tricky.
I will also share all of thoselinks in the show notes so people
can connect with you and tryout your boxes so they can connect
with their kids in a way thatdoesn't take up a lot of their extra
brain space, because I know mylisteners don't have any of that
to spare.
Yeah.
But thank you so much forcoming on and chatting.
(25:59):
I love you so much.
Yes, thank you.
Thank you for having me.
It was so fun.
So you can very easily see whythis is one of my favorite interviews
I've ever gotten to do.
Kelsey has such a great storyand I got so much from having this
conversation with her aboutbusiness and not comparing myself
to others and doing what worksfor you and sometimes taking that
(26:21):
imperfect, messy action canlead to really amazing results when
you put in the hard work.
So I hope you got a lot out ofthis episode as well.
And I also want to share thatKelsey also hooked us up with something
really special.
If you want to grab some ofher learning with Kelsey boxes, she's
giving us 15% off, sodefinitely check out the link in
(26:42):
the show notes for that.
I know I will be grabbing somefor my youngest because as a homeschooling
parent I know that the bestlearning happens through play.
So I'm really excited to beable to do that with him and foster
that connection in a way thatI don't have to plan or go run to
the store to buy all thesupplies and end up with a million
(27:02):
extra pom poms.
So connect with Kelsey at thelinks in the show notes and I can't
wait to be back in yourearbuds next week.

And her story is so amazingand I know you're gonna love it.
So let's dive in.
Welcome to mompreneur Mastery,where we build businesses, raise
families, and skip the hustle.
That doesn't actually help.
I'm Syd o', Brien, certifiedInstagram strategist, mom of three
(01:06):
and your no Fluff guide tomaking more sales with content that's
strategic, simple, and you canactually make in the small mom cracks
of your day because Instagramshouldn't feel like a full time job
you're not getting paid for.
If you're ready to stopposting just to stay visible and
start sharing content thatactually converts to sales and gets
you clients, you're in theright place.
(01:28):
All right, now, before we getinto your business, Kelsey, can you
tell us a little bit about howyour business got started?
Yeah.
So I was a teacher.
I taught third grade and thenI taught kindergarten.
And then when I had my firstbaby, I decided to stay home because
it was so hard to do teachingand have a baby.
(01:48):
It was so crazy.
And so I stayed home and thenI missed teaching so much and so
I was like, okay, what can Ido that would still do teaching but
be able to be home?
And so I started a preschoolout of my home and I taught preschool
for four years and it was so fun.
It was like the perfect mix.
(02:09):
It was two hours, twice a week.
I had two kids at the timethat I was doing it, and my older
son got to be in.
It was so fun.
And then Covid happened and soI had to close preschool.
And after closing preschool, Iwas like, okay, these little kids
are at home.
I miss them.
We did so many fun things atthe end of the year.
What can I do?
So I started putting togetherlittle packets for them of things
(02:31):
that we would have done inpreschool and leaving them on the
porch for their moms.
And so the moms would come getem and do them.
And they started sharing aboutem on Instagram.
And so I was like, okay.
More people were kind ofreaching out to me in my neighborhood,
just saying, oh, can I get oneof those?
Because, like, we don't knowwhat to do with our kids.
And I was like, okay, well,maybe I could sell these.
So I started selling them forlike $15 a packet, I think is what
(02:55):
I did.
And I made an Instagrambecause I was like, okay, I'm going
to kind of talk about these somewhere.
And more people in otherstates wanted them.
So I was mailing packets and Ikind of was like, okay, I feel like
this is an actual thing morethan just like this pandemic need.
Like, people are loving beingable to do activities.
(03:15):
And kind of as a teacher andmom, I had this unique perspective
that not everyone has.
And so I was like, okay, I'mgoing to go all in.
I sent.
I, at the time had done like50 packets.
And so I'm like, okay, I'mgonna do a box.
I'm gonna put it in a box.
It's easier to send.
Cause I was mailing them in envelopes.
And that's how it started.
And then we've just gone fromthere and it's just been crazy.
(03:38):
That's so cool.
That's like quite the origin story.
Like, you're like, say it quick.
And I'm like, well, it's kindof long.
Totally fine.
Like, it needs to be that longto go from the beginning to the end.
It's like, yeah.
Wow, that's incredible.
It's so fun.
Yeah.
Pandemic.
There were definitely some.
Some big negatives there, butthe creativity is like, kind of interesting
(04:03):
to see at the same time, like,how people worked with it.
And like, yeah, so that was areally cool story.
And then how long was it fromlike, when you started leaving packets
on your porch to when you hadlike, like mailing boxes and like
a more subscription type of thing?
So I started doing the packetsin March 2020, and I did boxes in
(04:29):
September.
So like, just a few months.
But when I really made like,what I have now, which is 20 activities
in a box, was about a year later.
So August of 2021 is when Ilaunched those.
And yeah, so since then we've grown.
I sent 14,000 boxes last month.
So it's just been insanity.
(04:49):
Yeah, I can imagine.
What was the moment where youwere like, oh, my gosh, I have to.
I have to like, do More andmake this a legit business.
So I actually, I had a friendof a friend, actually that was owned
a business.
She owned a really cool, like,kid sock company.
And she reached out to me andwas like, hey, can we go to dinner?
(05:13):
Like, I think you have areally good idea here.
And so I went out to dinnerwith her and this was like in the
summer when I was still doing packets.
And she's like, I think thiscould be a business and I think you
should just go for it.
And I didn't really know herthat well.
That's not something that Iwould have ever, like, done.
I kind of was like, I don'tknow how to do a business.
And she's like, you can do it,so just do it.
I think this is a good ideaand you should just do it.
And I was like, okay, I'm justgoing to do it.
(05:36):
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Sorry.
I was kind of thrown by my kidcoming in.
That's literally the story ofmy life.
I'm like, I.
So I have four kids now.
So I'm like, I've built thisbusiness with babies on my lap, feeding
babies, pregnant.
So my kids are always cominginto every meeting that I have.
All the time.
All the time.
It's the best.
(05:57):
How old are your kids now?
So I have 9, 7, 4, and then 18 months.
Oh my goodness.
Wow.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I hope I only have three, butthey're also like closer in age.
Mine are, yeah, seven, six and four.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah.
So, yeah, I, I can, I canunderstand the chaos part of it for
(06:20):
sure.
Yeah.
And I do feel like my third.
That was like my hardesttransition was having a third baby.
Because I'm like, it was a crazy.
All of a sudden you feel likethere's so.
And yours, like, are the same.
Mine, I had five, three, andthen a newborn.
And so it's like everybody'sat home, nobody's at school yet.
And it was just chaos.
So adding a fourth was like,oh, my gosh, we already have chaos.
(06:41):
So it's easy.
Yeah.
That's interesting.
I would think four.
I would just be like, no, I can't.
Adding another one.
Really?
I'm like, I know, like, what already.
Is going on here, which is a lot.
Adding one more just like,what's one more?
Yeah.
And you're like, the olderones are kind of more self sufficient,
you know, they could do morethings, which is nice.
(07:04):
Yeah.
How hard was it to like buildand grow that business with young
kids out?
It was so hard.
I'M like, I did, I did a lotduring nap and bedtime because, you
know, I was like, I quitteaching because I wanted to be home.
So I'm like, I now don't wantto, like, be working 247 because
(07:26):
I love being a mom.
That's like my number one priority.
So I. I would do it during napand bedtime.
And then that became like,crazy because I felt like I was never
off, you know, like, I wouldstay up so late, I would never have
a second where I wasn't beingeither mom or business.
Right.
So it was really hard.
But my husband is like mynumber one supporter, my number one
(07:48):
teammate, and he kind of wasalways saying to me, like, if it's
too much, like, hire it out.
Like, you can do this, this,this, and then let other people do
something else.
And so that was hard for mebecause it was like my baby, you
know, and like saying, okay,now someone else do this part of
it.
But that was like my biggestreason for success, I think, is that
I was able to bring on a teamof people that have been so helpful
(08:12):
to me and have helped me growand learn.
And yeah, my husband actuallyquit his job in December and is working
full time with me now, whichis so much better.
I'm like, I love that.
That's way better to have.
Have him doing so many thingswith me because it was, you know,
for a while it was like, okay,he's doing his full time job.
I can't, I can't expect him tohelp me.
And he would help me when hegot home, but then it was just chaos.
(08:34):
So that's been really, really great.
That's so cool.
I love that you're able tooutsource like that.
I.
It's so important to be ableto delegate.
Even like in just parenting,like, you can't do it all on your
own.
You got to have that village.
So it makes sense.
Like, you need that inbusiness too, for that success without
completely, like, burning out.
(08:55):
It's so stressful.
Yeah.
And I think, like, the morethat I've talked about business and
like, I always thought, like,okay, I'm not a business person.
Like, I don't know business.
I'm not.
It's so hard for me to evenconsider myself an entrepreneur because
I'm like, I'm a teacher, I'm a mom.
It's so, it's so foreign to me.
But the more I talk about it,the more I'm like, there's so many
similarities between being amom and being an Entrepreneur and
(09:18):
so many things that, so manyskills that we learn as moms that
translate exactly over into business.
For me, like I, I've learned,like you said, delegating like a
village is so important.
And I've learned that in mykids lives, having a coach or a teacher
or someone else talk to themand share advice with them and give
them something I can't is so powerful.
(09:40):
Just like me reaching out tosomeone maybe that is really great
at marketing or really greatin another area that I'm not.
It's such a value to my team too.
Yeah, absolutely.
And I think, I think thebiggest skills that translate are
time management and like flexibility.
Like.
Yeah, those are so importantwhen you're a business owner.
(10:02):
Yeah.
And as a mom, you know, youlearn, you fit things in everywhere.
So we're the ultimate multitaskers.
Yeah, absolutely.
Like, I feel like the mostcommon one at my house is like my
kids get really into certainkinds of foods or snacks and if we
run out or like it's gone bador something, you always gotta have
a backup plan.
It's like that in business too.
You gotta just be able to rollwith it and like just keep going,
(10:24):
adapt and move on.
Yeah.
And I'm.
And I feel like, like when youbecome a mom, you're like, oh, I
know what I'm gonna do.
And then you find out.
Okay.
There's so many things I don't know.
Yeah.
And that's the same with business.
I'm like there every day.
I'm like, oh, new issue that Ihad no idea that even existed.
But you're right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The same thing like every.
I feel everyone's a perfectparent until they're a parent.
(10:47):
And then everyone's a perfectbusiness owner.
Until they're a business.
Exactly, Exactly.
Oh my gosh.
So what about your boxes?
Makes them so unique and makeseveryone love them.
Do you think so?
I, I'm really passionate aboutearly childhood education, but also
(11:08):
about parent involvement andparent connection.
Because I think that is thebest thing that you can do for your
kid is foster this greatrelationship in those early years.
So my boxes are more than justlike, you're giving your child something
to do with them.
It's something that moms ordads or whoever's doing with them
is sitting down and doing with them.
So it's more about theconnection point that you're getting
(11:31):
10 to 15 minutes a day whereyou're getting to do an activity
with them.
You're all involved with them,you're making them Your focus of
their, your attention.
And I think that is where likethe magic happens with my boxes.
They're fun activities.
I love the activities.
Obviously I'm excited about them.
But at the end of the day Ithink like the parent connection
is like the most special partabout it.
(11:52):
That'S so, so important.
And I feel especially for mombusiness owners where it's very easy
for us to get bogged down inlike the constantly going between
like work and business.
And like you always have thesethings on the back of your mind where
it's very hard to be likepresent and in the moment.
So having like the pre, likedetermined activity like all laid
out where you can have thatconnection you need, but it's also
(12:14):
not something you have to likecome up with on your own because
you just don't have the brainspace for it would be like incredibly
helpful.
Yeah, it's so nice becauseeven I kind of found that even as
a teacher, as someone that'sdone so many activities in my time,
like with a two year old,sometimes I was like, okay, what
do I do?
And I'm like, well, I can lookthis up, I can find.
(12:35):
But then, then by that pointit's gone.
You know, your moment ofteaching or connecting is gone.
Yeah.
And then it's like, well, Ihave to get like these supplies for
it and like run to the storefor this.
Like.
Yeah.
Yes.
So they come with everythingthat you need to do the activities
and like in the perfect amount.
Because I also found if youwant to use pom poms, like you have
(12:55):
to order a thousand off Amazon.
And nobody wants a thousandpom poms at their house.
No, no one wants that.
We did that like one time andmy kids started eating them and I
was like, we're done.
This is a problem.
I can't.
It was like finding them onthe couch for weeks.
Oh my gosh.
Yes.
Yes.
It's too much.
It's chaos.
That's so funny.
(13:16):
And now we are a homeschoolfamily and my kids were.
Well, my youngest is at thatage where a lot of the learning we
do is done through play.
Because it's not like a fouryear old's going to like sit and
listen to me like yap abouthistory or something.
Yeah, for sure.
Is there like, are there moreeducational components in your boxes?
(13:40):
Yeah.
So we have different boxes.
We have four, five different ones.
So I do them by age becauseanother thing that I found was like
I would see activities thatwere for a 2 to 4 year old and I'm
thinking, okay, there's no wayit's for a two and a four year old.
Those are so, so different.
So different.
Sounds like they would besimilar, but.
No, no, they're not even close.
(14:01):
And even I would say liketeaching preschool, I'm like, I can
tell a spring birthday from afall birthday kid, you know, even
like those six months make ahuge difference.
So I have a toddler box, apreschool and a kinder prep for our
activities.
So they're very geared totheir ages.
So like for the four year oldbox, they're working on fine motor
(14:22):
skills, but they're alsoworking on introducing letters, tracing
letters, scissor skills, likesimple things like that, color matching,
counting.
But they're doing it in a fun way.
So like for instance, in thislast box, it was the May box is all
about flowers and gardens andthey had flowers with a pipe cleaner
with a number on them and theywere threading beads onto the pipe
(14:43):
cleaner.
So they're getting to, it'sfun, it's exciting for them.
But then they're also gettingto count.
They're getting to practicefine motor.
They're getting to practiceeven like number order.
So there's so many differentlittle things that they're working
on.
That's so nice.
And then like, yeah, the morefun it is, the more likely they'll
actually like do it and learnfrom it too.
(15:04):
Oh yeah, yeah, you gotta have it.
I love themes and I thinkthat's the teacher in me that loves
a good theme.
So every box is themed monthlyand everything is around that theme.
So like our June boxes, oceans.
And so there's so many funthings that they're getting to do
with ocean animals, withseaweed, like all these different
things.
I love that so much.
Like, yeah, I know my kidswhen we do like little mini unit
(15:27):
studies and everything isaround a theme, they, it's like when
they're most engaged for sure.
Yes.
It's so funny.
But I'm like, I, I love aholiday, so I get it.
Yeah, same.
(16:44):
What was something you wishmore moms knew about starting a business
with kids at home?
I think I wish more moms wouldjust go for it.
That's kind of what I'velearned is I just put things out
without like second guessingit, which is not really my personality.
So it's so funny that I'vebeen able to do that in business.
(17:04):
But I think because I felt soexcited about it and I loved it so
much that I was just like, I'mjust gonna do it I'm not doing this
with the purpose of this isgonna be a huge business.
This is gonna be whatever.
And so I was like, I'm justgoing to make a logo on Canva.
I'm just going to throw Googlehow to do a website and just try
it.
Because you can always change things.
You can always perfect things.
You can always make them better.
(17:25):
But I think, like, that firststep of just doing it is the best
way to get it out there.
So don't wait till you havethe perfect name.
Don't wait till you have theperfect logo.
Just put it out there and thensee where it goes.
That is such great advice.
And I feel like the.
Not for, like, my wholebusiness, but, like, for different
offers, specifically.
The more I come up withsomething and am excited about it
(17:48):
and, like, put it out therebefore it might not super be ready.
But, like, we can tweak italong the way.
That, like, man.
And is, like, catching and is,like, great for marketing and attracting
new people.
And you're so excited about itbecause you know how good it is.
And you are normally like,your own ideal client or customer.
So, like, they need it too.
(18:09):
So, yeah, definitely jump in.
It's not.
It's not about being perfect.
Yeah.
Cause it can get hard.
And especially, like, you'retaking in other people's opinions
or, you know, like, you kindof have to just, like, tune it out
and just say, like, I like this.
I'm gonna do it.
Yeah.
And I feel like the more,like, outside opinions I get, the
more bogged down I get.
(18:30):
And I'm like, is this a good idea?
Should I do this?
Should I scrap it?
Should I change this or that?
And I'm like, no, just ahundred percent.
Just because the opinions youreally need are yourself.
From having to do the work andmaking sure it fits within your life.
And also the people buying itbecause you want them to, like, benefit
from it, obviously.
But, like, there's a lot ofoutside noise a lot of the time from
(18:51):
random people.
And I'm like, sometimes that'svery valuable.
Sometimes.
Yes, it's not.
Yep.
You have to, like, take whatworks for you and then leave what
doesn't.
Yeah.
And if it.
You try it and you know itdoesn't work, don't feel bad about
leaving it, no matter who it'scoming from, because you know, you
know your own experiences best.
For sure.
(19:12):
Mm.
And I think that's anotherthing where motherhood has really
helped me.
I think that I've gained somuch confidence in becoming a mom.
And, and growing with my kids,and that's helped me to be more confident
in business.
Like, you know, when you havea kid, you have to.
You're their number oneadvocate and you have to be the one
to say things.
And you can't, you can'tsecond guess every single time.
(19:32):
You just have to be confidentthat you know what you're doing.
And I think that has helpedtranslate over into business so much
for me.
Yeah.
Now that you mentioned it, I'mlike, huh, yeah, me too.
I can definitely see that.
The, that advocacy, likebefore kids, I was like, very.
I don't know if I want tostick up for myself.
I'll just like, you know, be apeople pleaser and go along with
(19:52):
this.
But now I'm like, exactly.
I can't.
I don't have.
I can't do that.
That doesn't work for me.
I'm not going to pretend it does.
Yeah.
And that's.
I.
Exactly the same.
I feel like I grew up, I'vebeen a people pleaser for my whole
life like that.
So jumping into being a mom,it was so much, so hard for me to
be like, okay, I'm the onethat has to say, it doesn't matter
what this person's saying.
(20:12):
It doesn't matter what thisperson's saying.
And it's definitely taken practice.
But the more kids that I'vehad and the older my kids have gotten,
I've gotten so much better at it.
And so in business, same thing.
Look, I've.
There's been hardconversations I've had to have that
have been tricky or like,difficult for me to do, but the more
that I do it, the better I getat it.
Yeah, for sure.
(20:33):
It's definitely a skill andit's not super fun to learn, especially
when you are a mom and you'rejust kind of like thrown into it
like there's no course oranything, but the more.
You do, the easier.
Just go for it.
For sure.
Yeah.
Yep.
For sure.
Fake it till you make it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What is of advice you wouldgive to a mom who has maybe like
(20:54):
an idea, but zero time orenergy to pursue it?
I would say start small, youknow, so if you.
Even if it's like you're justsharing about your idea, you're maybe
not offering it for sale orwhatever, but I think just do something
small that gets you in a stepin the right direction and then you
(21:15):
can build on it.
It doesn't matter how long it takes.
You know, you.
Some people take some fiveyears to do something.
Some people take some a week,like just do a little and then that
will kind of help you to seewhat can I give to it, what can I
not?
And in the end, you're theultimate decider.
You know, that's what's socool about being an entrepreneur
is you get to decide what yourtime is.
(21:36):
You get to decide what's most important.
And so I think just doing alittle bit is like the best first
step.
Absolutely.
That's such great advice.
And I feel like that alsorelates to parenting.
Like, different kids aresometimes on different timelines
if there's.
They have different needs orneed different supports.
So not comparing yourself andyou're like, what other people are
(21:57):
doing, because it's not fairto anyone to compare like your chapter
one or chapter two to their,like chapter 11 over here.
Oh, yeah.
And it's like, you know, I'mthinking like, okay, it took me four
years to even take.
Take money for my business.
You know, I put everythingback into it.
So it's like, yeah, it looksfun now, but like, I was working
for free for a very long time.
(22:18):
Yeah, it takes a lot to get tothat point.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
How did being a mom of fourinfluence the way you built your
business?
So I think that it helped mein how I was going to build my team.
You know, I brought on,basically I started by bringing on
(22:39):
all moms, which has beenreally cool, but it helped me to
see, like, hey, this is what'smost important.
I knew that being a mom, beingin present with my kids was my most
important thing.
And so I built everything elsearound that, you know, so I knew
these are the times that I'mnot gonna be available.
These are the things that I'mnot gonna do.
And setting that tone at thevery beginning really helped us as
(23:04):
we kept going.
And so, like right now, mywarehouse, I have 20 women that work
there and they drop their kidsoff at school and they come and they
work at our warehouse until 2o' clock, and then they go pick their
kids up.
And it's like, that has alwaysbeen something that was really important
for me is that the moms wereable to give back to their families
while also getting to be momsand getting to be home, which was
(23:25):
important to them too.
So I feel like that hasinfluenced how I built my business,
who I've brought on my teamand all that.
That's amazing.
I love that so much.
Like, not only for like youand your business, but also helping
other moms as well.
Like, I love working withother moms because they just get
it.
Like, my youngest came in acouple of minutes ago, just handed
(23:47):
me a snack to open, and thenstarted chanting Odd Squad.
Cause that's what they'rewatching right now.
I bribed them with PBS kids tobe able to do this.
I love it.
And, yeah, like, you didn'teven bat an eye.
It's just, like, whatever.
It happens.
Yep.
It doesn't matter.
Yeah.
But being able to help othermoms do that too and be more aware
of their, like, needs andschedules so they can achieve that
(24:09):
as well is, like, really amazing.
Yeah, it's been really cool.
And.
And also, you know, like, momsare so scrappy.
Like, we learned so manydifferent things.
I feel like I've learned.
I've gotten so many greatideas from my.
The moms on my team.
I've gotten so many great,like, tips.
It's just been really incredible.
Yeah.
I started my business as,like, a social media manager, and
(24:31):
then I did it while my husbandwas deployed, and it was, like, the
worst timing in the world.
But, like, bad idea, but fun.
Yeah, exactly.
And then I was like, wait, Iwant other moms to be able to do
this too.
So I, like, switched toworking just, like, marketing just
for moms, for, like, verysimilar reasons.
So, yeah, moms need the help,so I'm glad we were able to.
(24:55):
To do that.
Yeah.
I love it.
It's fun.
And it's.
You know, we have a coupleboys down there now, so we don't
discriminate against our boys,but we need.
We need them.
We definitely need them tolift all the things.
Yeah.
Can definitely understand that.
And can you tell us more abouthow people can get your boxes?
(25:18):
Yeah.

It is.
It is tricky.
I will also share all of thoselinks in the show notes so people
can connect with you and tryout your boxes so they can connect
with their kids in a way thatdoesn't take up a lot of their extra
brain space, because I know mylisteners don't have any of that
to spare.
Yeah.
But thank you so much forcoming on and chatting.
(25:59):
I love you so much.
Yes, thank you.
Thank you for having me.
It was so fun.
So you can very easily see whythis is one of my favorite interviews
I've ever gotten to do.
Kelsey has such a great storyand I got so much from having this
conversation with her aboutbusiness and not comparing myself
to others and doing what worksfor you and sometimes taking that
(26:21):
imperfect, messy action canlead to really amazing results when
you put in the hard work.
So I hope you got a lot out ofthis episode as well.
And I also want to share thatKelsey also hooked us up with something
really special.
If you want to grab some ofher learning with Kelsey boxes, she's
giving us 15% off, sodefinitely check out the link in
(26:42):
the show notes for that.
I know I will be grabbing somefor my youngest because as a homeschooling
parent I know that the bestlearning happens through play.
So I'm really excited to beable to do that with him and foster
that connection in a way thatI don't have to plan or go run to
the store to buy all thesupplies and end up with a million
(27:02):
extra pom poms.
So connect with Kelsey at thelinks in the show notes and I can't
wait to be back in yourearbuds next week.
