Part of our tour of New York City was a quick stop to Brooklyn Heights to see Kelsey Nixon. Kelsey has had a whirlwind couple of years, landing her own show on the Cooking Channel called “Kelsey’s Essentials”, giving birth to her first baby, Oliver, and even scoring a Daytime Emmy nomination (nominated with Ina Garten and Giada Di Laurentiis), there’s no arguing Kelsey is busy!
One of the many things we love about Kelsey is that she has a contagious zest for life. Her passion for food bubbles over and inspires. Cooking is her love language, and we loved catching a glimpse of her sharing that with her family. Check out her interview filmed by Jenner Brown of Lumineux Films:
It seems that every parent has a special labor of love that they enjoy doing for their family. Where they go that extra mile because they enjoy doing it: It may be taking beautiful photos, a special Saturday breakfast, assembling a bicycle, a creative scrapbook, or like Kelsey, a delicious meal. We’d love to know, what’s yours?
Catch up with Kelsey on her website, Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter and @kelseynixon on Instagram.

I love people that dream big and work hard to accomplish their life’s passion. Kelsey is the perfect example of this and her little Oliver is too cute for words. Love the video!
Love the video! So wonderful to get a glimpse into her life as a working mother. Does anyone happen to know the name of the song used? Thanks so much!
I think it’s Holly Maher, but we’re waiting on Jenner to get back from Paris so we can ask him. Hah!
This is great! My favorite part is when she says she doesn’t know if she’ll ever have the answer to figuring out the balance between work and family, but that every day she gets up and tries the best she can. Such an important message.
What a sweet film! I just love Kelsey and am so happy for all of her success and her sweet family! Oliver is a cutie pie! 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
Kelsey–You look darling, as always! I love your passion and drive for your family and career. So happy for you!
I adore Kelsey and the woman that she is. She is such a darling mom and an inspiration to all moms to follow your heart and dream big! That Ollie is too cute for words too!
This is unbelievably sweet! Thanks for sharing!
What a great video! I also like to show my love for my family through cooking. I don’t always think about it that way, but you mentioning it made me realize that it is something special. Thanks!
So cute, Kelsey! Oliver is such a doll baby. It’s so fun to see our beautiful city represented as a wonderful place to raise happy, healthy children—we love it so much, too. Beautiful, beautiful video. Of course I teared up. 🙂
