When I found out I was pregnant with baby number 4, I had a gut feeling she was going to be a little different from my past babies when it came time for birth. For background, all three of my previous babies went into
Welcome, I’m
Helping you simplify your life with life
hacks, budgeting, simple DIYs, and
honest motherhood.
Connecticut Blogger and YouTuber
I’m Kallie Branciforte, AKA That Practical Mom. I’m a blogger, YouTuber, mom x3, wife, and usually in need of another cup of coffee. I’m committed to simplifying the everyday chaos of motherhood and helping you do the same.
A little more about me?
In 2016 I married my high school sweetheart and the blog husband here at BFC. He’s my best friend and #1 supporter. BFC wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for him.
In 2017 my husband and I paid off over $70k in debt and have since lived debt-free. So I love sharing affordable living content.
In 2018 I became a mom to Miles. My husband and I struggled through infertility and miscarriage to conceive, but it was worth it all 100x over to be a mama. So, I share a lot of motherhood content.
In 2021 we welcomed baby girl Finley to the family! Then in 2023 Tate joined the crew. Now baby 4 is coming in 2024.
I’m a morning person. My body pretty much shuts down at 8:00 pm, so I’ve learned if I want to get things done, I need to wake up early for them.
I live in Connecticut. We’re currently a family of five living in 1,100 sq ft. We like small house living, however, we are adding a small addition soon (follow on Instagram for life updates like that).
I’m a big-time homebody. We spend the majority of our time at home so we love making it just how we want.
In 2020 I quit my job in an office to pursue being a YouTuber and blogger full-time and haven’t looked back. Alongside making content on my YouTube Channel about realistic organization, productivity, and saving money, I also have a whole library of printables and guides you can use!
