I love Moms and due to being an older child in a large family I can relate to Mothers in a lot of things,
and have always just really enjoyed talking to them.
It is super fun having Mom friends, and I am always delighted to meet new ones..they are the best.
I desire that this new series will be encouraging, fun, informative + uplifting for women,
and hopefully a blessing to many!!

Hey sweet friends! My name is Nicole, wife to my blonde California husband, mama to little Emmett + Gideon! We live in Los Angeles where we love spending family afternoons at the beach. In the cracks of time throughout my days, I am building a wellness community with women around the world with the focus on health + natural living through essential oils.
Right after Gideon was born, a friend shared a bottle of Young Living lavender + thieves essential oils with us + it didn't take long for me to fall in love with these little bottles of plant goodness. What a gift to use God-given nature to support health + wellness of our family! We have gone on to learn ways to use oils to clear the toxins from our home in cleaning, body + beauty products + it feels so good knowing that our home isn't a chemical landmine for the bodies of our littlest guys!! I couldn't be more grateful for how they have simplified our living in so many ways.
I am really excited to share three simple tips on ways we love using oils in our home each day.
1 // Diffuse Diffuse Diffuse // Diffusing essential oils is one of the simplest + safe ways to use them around your little ones. Be sure you are only using the highest quality essential oils // we have found Young Living to be the best brand because of this amazing promise of purity // in a cool mist diffuser to be sure the oils aren't damaged by heat.
I love diffusing calming oils in the nursery during naptime to help the babies rest well, immune supporting oils to keep us healthy + strong throughout the year + of course cleansing oils to keep all the stinky baby boys smells at bay, haha.
I also have found many essential oils to be supportive for my postpartum emotions as well as creating an uplifting environment in our home.
2 // Thieves Household Cleaner // I need simple when it comes to cleaning my house because let's be honest.
I don't have time for intense scrubbing + degreasing SO I'm really thankful for a one stop shop with the Thieves Household Cleaner. This is a plant based cleaner that is infused with the proprietary blend, Thieves. Not only does this cleaner smell like Christmas but I love how I don't have to worry about using it on high chairs, counter tops + other areas the babies play everyday. I can also use it as a teaching tool for our three year old in learning how to clean messes without worrying about toxic chemical overspray.
3 // Fresh Laundry // I love my laundry to smell fresh + clean but freshening products from the store have so many chemicals that can affect the respiratory health of our family. I cannot believe I waited so long to get some unscented wool dryer balls // like these //
because once I did, I fell in love! I simply add a few drops of my essential oil choice to two dryer balls + throw them in with the laundry.
Not only do the clothes dry faster, but they smell amazing + I can rest assured my babies aren't breathing anything harmful afterwards!
I know essential oils can be overwhelming so like I said, I have created a space where other families
can learn + grow with us on this wellness journey!!
