Welcome to Intentional Motherhood, where Christian moms learn practical peaceful parenting tools to build deeper connection while staying rooted in their God-given purpose. I’m your host, Kelsey Redd, and today we’re diving into one of the most chaotic—and most sacred—parts of parenting: bedtime.
If bedtime at your house feels like total mayhem—meltdowns, stalling, hunger strikes, and sibling drama—you’re not alone. But what if that same moment could become a peaceful, prayerful, and powerful opportunity to nurture your child’s spirit, teach gospel truths, and strengthen your bond?
In this episode, I walk you through my ideal bedtime routine with four kids under six (including twins!), including:
🌙 How to create calm, connection, and structure at the end of the day
🧒 A nightly rhythm of prayer, gratitude, and emotional check-ins
