Jessica’s story begins with a familiar moment: travelling alone with a child, a long day, and the realisation that carrying them in your arms only works for so long. A quick decision in Paris followed, one that later came full circle. Today, daily life moves between motherhood, creative work, and time spent outdoors. Through her answers, Jessica shares the habits, observations, and practical choices that shape everyday family life.

Name / age / age of kids

My name is Jessica, I'm 36 years old. I'm a mum of two, my son is 3 and a half, and my daughter is 8.

What was your Wildride?

I actually discovered Wildride in a really funny way. Two years before our first collaboration, I went to Paris alone with my son and ended up carrying him in my arms all day. At one point I told myself, "I absolutely need to find a carrier right now." I saw an ad for Wildride, loved the concept instantly, and decided I needed one immediately.

I searched for a shop in Paris that carried them, found one, and bought my Wildride on the spot. Two years later, receiving a message from you to collaborate felt like a beautiful full-circle moment.

Last thing your child said that made you laugh

My son recently told me, very seriously: "Mum, the moon is following us because it likes our car."

Tell us something about your hobbies / doing with kids / daily moment

I love slow moments with my kids cooking together, drawing, or simply walking outside. We spend a lot of time in nature, just observing, touching the grass, listening to the wind. Those quiet moments inspire me deeply, in my work and in my motherhood.

Favorite place to go on a mini adventure with your kid

Anywhere in nature a field — a quiet beach, a forest path. Kids don't need much to create a world of their own.

Go-to song for a fun walk or ride

Always a song from the 1930s. I adore music from that era — jazz, swing, old film melodies. I truly believe I wasn't born in the right decade.

What surprised you most about parenthood?

How intense and overwhelming love can be, deeper than anything l ever imagined.

One thing you always carry with you since becoming a parent

My little Morphee. I always carry a small interactive storytelling box with me. My son absolutely loves it. As he is autistic, it helps him a lot during certain moments or crises, and it brings him comfort instantly. It's truly the one thing I never leave the house without. Always.

And snacks, lots of snacks.

What's in your bag?

My sunglasses, my phone, my credit card, hand cream, and always more baby essentials than things for myself. And always a lip balm. I'm addicted to lip balm and need my lips hydrated 24/7. I also keep a perfume with me at all times. I rotate them, but the one that never leaves my bag is Yves Saint Laurent - Intense.

Best lifehack for kids

Always keep a tiny surprise toy in your bag, something small you can take out in emergencies. It works every time.

Parents lies to get things done

"If you help me now, we'll do something fun later." And sometimes... we totally forget the fun thing. And of course: "Let's make it a game!" even when it's definitely not a game.

Winner for lunch - best tip for lunch on the go

The best lunch tip? Feed them before they get hangry.

Trick to get your child to fall asleep

A slow ritual: soft music, dim lights, and a long cuddle.

If you had a day off just for yourself, how would you spend it?

I would spend a whole day in silence, somewhere in nature. Reading, thinking, breathing. I often use quiet moments in the car to think, it's the only time when my creative mind can really unfold.

One piece of advice for a new parent

Slow down. You don't need to do everything perfectly, just be present.
