Episode 187: The Benefits of Using an Air Purifier in a Nursery with Sereniby Co-Founder & CEO Alex Melecki

When it comes to creating the best nursery and sleep environment for your little one, most parents think about blackout curtains, white noise, and cozy sleep sacks. But there’s one element of the nursery that often gets overlooked, and it can have a big impact on your baby’s health and sleep quality: the air they breathe.

In this week’s episode of The Kids Sleep Show, I sat down with Alex Melecki, Co-Founder and CEO of Sereniby, to talk about the powerful benefits of using an air purifier in your nursery. From reducing allergens and airborne irritants to supporting deeper, more restful sleep, an air purifier can be a simple yet transformative addition to your child’s sleep space.

If you’ve ever wondered whether an air purifier is worth it or how to choose the right one, this conversation will give you the answers and peace of mind you’re looking for.   

About Our Guest: Alex Melecki is the Co-Founder and CEO of Sereniby, a wellness technology company dedicated to providing babies with the clean air they need for a safer, healthier start. Before founding Sereniby, Alex spent his career as a strategy consultant helping Fortune 500 companies build and launch new products. He and his wife, Lexi, a pediatric nurse, began thinking differently about the role of indoor air in health and safety as they prepared for the arrival of their first child.

With Lexi’s background in pediatric health, Alex’s expertise in product development, and their shared experience as new parents, they quickly realized how overlooked indoor air quality is in conversations about infant wellness—and how limited the available products were for helping parents create the right environment at home. That insight sparked a new path: Alex left consulting, and together they spent nearly two years building the product they wished had existed for their own nursery—a purpose-designed air purifier and monitor, built from the ground up for the needs of babies and their parents. Along the way, they welcomed their second child, a son who became the first baby to ever have a Sereniby in his nursery.

Alex and Lexi live in Philadelphia, along with their two young children and their neurotic but lovable miniature poodle.
