Hi, I'm so glad you're here!
Hi, I'm so glad you're here!
Hi! I’m Cierra Crowley, MSN, APRN, CPNP, and Founder of Bite Sized Peds
With over 12 years of experience in pediatric nursing and as a Board-Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner, I am deeply committed to helping families build healthy, safe, confident foundations during early childhood.
My career has spanned pediatric intensive care, obesity medicine, pediatric surgery + trauma, pediatric nutrition, and preventive + community health. Through these experiences, I saw a common thread—so many of the struggles families face could be eased, and often prevented, with earlier guidance and the right support.
That's what inspired me to create Bite Sized Peds—a space where parents can find trustworthy, evidence-based guidance rooted in both science and real life. A resource I wish I had when I was first starting my parenting journey. You can use this to find some peace, clarity, and hopefully some confidence to trust your gut as a parent.
I leverage my specialized training in pediatric care, pediatric intensive care, infant and toddler feeding and nutrition, and pediatric CPR + First Aid education to help growing families thrive. I pride myself on offering a variety of educational classes and online resources that can be personalized to meet the unique needs of your child, your family dynamics, and your lifestyle.
At Bite Sized Peds, my mission is to equip parents with practical skills, expert guidance, and everyday confidence to nourish, protect, and raise healthy kids - from first bites to first aid and everything in between. Every family deserves to feel calm, capable, and supported in their parenting journey.
Because when parents feel equipped and supported, kids thrive—and that's where lifelong wellness begins.
My Mission
I’m honored to serve families in the St. Louis area, as well as virtually across the U.S.
When I’m not working with families, you’ll usually find me chasing my three kids outdoors, cheering from the sidelines of a soccer game, baking sourdough, or enjoying a cozy pizza night at home. I’ve been a CrossFit athlete for over a decade, I believe all foods can fit in a balanced diet (except pineapple on pizza!), and I’ll absolutely sing along to any song—even if I get the lyrics wrong.
