Tell us a bit about yourself and your family. (location, family structure, favorite activities, etc.)

I am Jewelle Hirschey, I am 26 and from a small town in Central Minnesota. My husband and I have been together for 6 years, married for 3 and a half. We have three kids - Lillian 3, Archer 17 months & Irelyn 2 months. We also have one angel baby so all my babies are rainbow babies ❤️. I used to work in labor & delivery until I became a SAHM when I was pregnant with my second. Our favorite activities are really anything that involves being outside or in the water as we live near tons of awesome lakes.

Which Copper Pearl products are your go-tos?

We love all things Copper Pearl but our must-haves are definitely the 5 in 1 covers, perfect for breastfeeding, covering the car seat & shopping carts! We love swaddles of course - we swaddle our babies and they make perfect little tag-along blankets as they get older. My other must-have are the knotted gowns. There make for super easy diaper changes in the middle of the night and they unbutton on the body which also is great for skin to skin. 

What has been the most memorable moment in your parenting journey so far?

Watching my children learn, grow and bond with each other. Having three children so close in age keeps things busy…but it also allows me to witness three little humans become leaders, protectors, and best friends.

Jewelle’s Parenting Pearl: 

“My child is not giving me a hard time, they are having a hard time, and I can help.” They say patience is a virtue…and I practice it every day.

What is your favorite parenting hack?

ROUTINE ROUTINE ROUTINE. My kids thrive off a set nap time everyday as well as a strict bedtime. 

How do you find support and community in your parenting journey?

Taking advantage of the online communities and parenting forums has been such a great resource. From getting advice, chatting about hardships or being able to gift another family with my extra breast milk. . . . I’m so happy to be a mom during a time online groups offer such a benefit.
