About Calmily

 

Owner/ Inventor Libby LePinnet Kelly, PT, DPT

 

Hi there! I’m Libby LePinnet Kelly—a mom of four, a devoted wife, and a passionate pediatric physical therapist. My life is a blend of joyful chaos and meaningful work, and as any parent knows, finding those quick, quiet moments to recharge is essential. While my teenage son might be too cool for pajamas (as evidenced by him missing from our photoshoot), my heart is always full as I navigate the beautiful, hectic world of family life.

 

In my role as a pediatric physical therapist, I've witnessed firsthand the incredible benefits of weighted therapy for children facing sensory processing challenges. While weighted blankets and vests can be transformative, I often found them to be bulky, inflexible, and not tailored to individual needs. Inspired by my patients and my own experiences with the calming effects of deep pressure, I set out to create a solution that addresses these challenges.

That’s how Calmly Perfectly Weighted was born. Our innovative pillow harnesses the power of Deep Pressure Stimulation (DPS) to provide:

  • For Children: Enhanced focus, reduced anxiety, and improved sleep patterns.
  • For Teens: Stress relief during exams, better emotional regulation, and calmer bedtimes—providing a more socially acceptable alternative to weighted stuffed animals.
  • For Adults: Alleviated insomnia, reduced work-related stress, and overall relaxation, supporting your child's restful sleep so you can enjoy those precious moments of “me time".

Neurodiverse individuals may experience:

  • Sensory regulation for those with autism or ADHD.
  • Increased focus and attention span.
  • Reduced overwhelm in stimulating environments.
  • Calming pressure to support change to routine or schedule.

Neurotypical users can enjoy:

  • General anxiety relief.
  • Enhanced sleep quality.
  • Improved mood and well-being.

Additionally, the Calmily Pillow is portable, making it perfect for use in the car or out in the community. This ensures a smooth transition to bedtime, keeping your routine consistent and hiccup-free for every neuro type!

Crafted with care in the Finger Lakes of NY, the Calmily Pillow is more than just a weighted pillow; it represents our commitment to inclusivity and community. We proudly partner with Finger Lakes Textiles, an organization composed of individuals of all abilities who work together to create high-quality products.
