Who We Are
Heather, Isabelle, Donna, and Sierra.
We have come a long way…
Heather started Blessed Nest in January of 2004 with her friend, Leigh Ann Martin. Today, Isabelle & Heather work every day in Brooklyn, NY to nurture the company that takes care of babies, moms and their families all over the world!
Donna is the Sales Manager for Blessed Nest. She gets to use her 17 years of experience in the Children's Clothing Industry, when she isn’t chasing her two little girls around!
Sierra, Heather's sister, is the newest member to the Blessed Nest family. She is the proud Momma of Gracie, the inspiration for our motto. Sierra is in charge of BN's MySpace account.
I love stories where the end is really the beginning…
When I injured my right hand in 2002, I was told that my career as an Interior Designer and Seamstress was over. I had to take all of the things I knew how to do, and figure out what to do next.
During a visit from Kansas, my friend, Leigh Ann asked what I would do, if there were nothing to stop me. I told her that I had always wanted to run a business, designing Baby Bedding, since nurseries were my favorite projects as an Interior Designer. I wanted a way to combine all of my experience, from sewing to being a Nanny. Without hesitation, Leigh Ann and her husband got behind me, partnered with me, and Blessed Nest slowly became a reality.
Just as it was all coming together, another dear friend, Donna gave birth to her first daughter. She was having trouble breastfeeding, and the only nursing pillows available to her at the time just added to her frustration. She was certain that I could come up with something better.
So, the Nesting Pillow came to be as a gift, and was added to the Blessed Nest line almost as an afterthought. What happened next continues to amaze me… this little gift for Donna has become a gift to hundreds of women and their babies across the world! I made the decision to phase out the rest of the Blessed Nest products for a while, so I could focus my efforts on the one thing that everyone seems to need (and love!).
My hand has healed more than the doctors said it would, and others have helped along the way to make Blessed Nest what it is today. I really think you will feel the love that has gone into Blessed Nest in the products that we make.
As I say across the miles to my little niece, Gracie, “love you to the moon and backâ€!
