Carly Kirsch, Neighbor

Carly is the owner of Newly Nested, a Baby Planning & Consulting service for new and expecting parents.  Like most "mompreneurs" her career did not exactly begin with owning her own business. 

She received a Bachelor's Degree in Communication in 2003 from Central Connecticut State University and continued on to hold positions in Marketing, Communications and Public Relations.  

After searching for her next potential career opportunity after the birth of her second child, Carly found herself continuously coming back to the idea of doing something that involved families combined with the knowledge of all things pregnancy, baby and beyond.  She was already being asked questions by friends, family members and acquaintances about pregnancy, baby products and opinions or suggestions about parenting.  Then it clicked.  If people close to her wanted and needed advice on everything from baby registries to brands of diapers and more, then there must be others who needed these services as well.  

The next step was simple - creating Newly Nested.  It combines everything Carly had been looking for with something she truly and honestly loves to do. 

Carly has a lovely nest of her own with her husband, two children and dog in Cheshire.
