Hello!

My name is Emma and welcome to the Naptime Diaries! I am so excited for you to be exploring my blog. Whether you are also a new mom or a seasoned one, I hope you find some laughter in the stories I tell you from my own experience navigating this new world with my little one!

I have always enjoyed writing and went into this blog looking for a new “hobby” to spend my little bit of free time doing. I wanted something to keep me occupied during the long days of maternity leave when I needed a bit of a sanity break, as well as giving me an outlet to laugh at myself and all of the trials I will be experiencing during the next handful of years as I raise what I am fully expecting to be a very independent and personality filled little girl! I thought a blog would be the perfect place to express my joyous moments, frustrating times, and Ah-Ha! moments of new motherhood while also giving others the ability to relate to so many of the oopsies we all will go or have gone through. Completely UNFILTERED. I hope you enjoy the journey with me!

One more fun fact about me that may pop up within my blog posts from time to time is that I am a Registered Nurse and I work on a Labor, Delivery, Recovery, and Postpartum unit! I absolutely love where I work and am hoping that it will bring a little bit more ease to the adjustment of becoming a new mom. I have educated many new mom’s over so many of the things I will be experiencing soon and I am looking forward to being able to give them advice on a personal level as well!
