Curated Calm

Thoughtful home design meets intentional parenting—creating peaceful homes where kids and parents thrive.

About Us

Meet Holly and Kelly — Co-Founders of Curated Calm

We're twin sisters, moms to young children, and lifelong believers in the power of a peaceful, nurturing home. Our passion for nurturing children runs deep, rooted in our mother’s 30-year career in early childhood education. Influenced by our upbringing, we both began our own careers in early childcare centers, while pursuing degrees in Elementary Education and Psychology, respectively. We have carried our passions for teaching, guiding, and coaching into our careers- Holly as a certified PreK through Grade 6 teacher on the shoreline, and Kelly at a global management consulting firm.

Curated Calm is a parent-focused consultancy that blends our two passions: thoughtful home design, and early childhood best practices. We believe a well-designed home, paired with simple, sustainable routines, can have a powerful impact on a child’s growth, development, and everyday behavior. Curated Calm aims to bring a greater sense of peace to family life, and enhance the joy of raising children.

Through practical strategies, systems, and home design solutions, we are here to help you create a home where you and your children can thrive.

Our Services

A peaceful home doesn’t just happen on its own - it takes intentional thought and care. Through a mix of design tips, strategies, and systems, our consulting services help families create calm, nurturing spaces where kids can thrive and the chaos of early childhood feels a little more manageable — and a lot more joyful.

Designing Calm for Busy Families

When a physical space is cluttered, stress levels spike and it’s easy to feel overstimulated. Visual clutter interferes with a child’s cognitive development, sense of safety, emotion regulation, and more. For parents, a disorganized home can put you in survival mode, fighting to get ahead of to-do lists, and struggling to regulate your own emotions.

We help young families create beautiful, functional spaces that support calm, independence, and connection. Through practical home organization strategies and child-centered design that fosters a sense of calm and belonging, we leverage research-backed early education principles to transform your home into a place that works with your family - not against it.

Whether you’re overwhelmed by an accumulation of toys, stuck in survival mode, or seeking smoother mornings, we develop solutions that will bring peace to your home - and family.
