At The Cradle Company, we know how easy it is to feel overwhelmed by conflicting information, especially when it concerns your child’s health.

That’s why our founder, Brandi Jordan, created a free, evidence-based guide to help parents understand what research truly says about Tylenol and autism.

It’s grounded in science, backed by medical consensus, and written with compassion.
Because peace of mind starts with the truth.

Behind every smooth system and thoughtful touch at The Cradle Company, there’s a team member making it happen.

Meet Jessica Crussel, the powerhouse behind our administrative support and special projects.

Based in Chicago, Jessica brings a thoughtful mix of structure and heart to everything she does. As a mom herself, she approaches each task with the lived experience of parenthood ensuring that the families we serve feel understood, supported, and seen.

When she’s not streamlining processes or lending her expertise to a new initiative, Jessica is exploring a new city with her husband and toddler, curled up with a great book, or baking something delicious (dessert is her love language).

The early weeks after birth are raw, tender, and often overwhelming. And while the baby draws everyone’s attention, the person who just gave birth is navigating one of the most intense transitions of their life.

If you’re supporting a family during this time (professionally or personally) remember: your presence matters more than your advice.

Postpartum support isn’t about fixing.

It’s about showing up, consistently, gently, without ego or judgment.
Empathy over opinions.
Patience over pressure.
Care that centers the whole person, not just the newest one.

You can’t pour from an empty cup.
You don’t have to earn your rest.
You deserve to feel like a human and a mother.
Start there. 🌿

You don’t need to be the calmest parent in the room.
You just need to be the most present.

Children don’t remember every moment you raised your voice, they remember how quickly you came back. How often you stayed. How deeply you listened.

Nervous system safety in parenting isn’t about doing it “right” all the time.

It’s about connection, co-regulation, and the invisible ways your presence teaches them how to feel safe in their own body.
