Meet the Founders
Mysa York
Hey, I’m Mysa York, the co-founder and storyteller behind Cuddle Pixie, a space where parenting meets passion, creativity, and connection. Alongside my partner, I’ve built this corner of the internet to celebrate the everyday magic of raising children and to support parents with stories, tips, and a little dose of humor.
I hold a B.Ed (Hons) from the University of Pennsylvania and a Master’s in Family Education from the University of Minnesota. My academic journey gave me a deep understanding of child development, learning, and family dynamics, and inspired me to share what I know in a way that is both practical and heartfelt.
As a mother to a wonderful son and daughter, I’ve experienced the joy, chaos, and growth that comes with parenthood. I understand the triumphs, the challenges, and the beauty found in those little moments that shape our families. At Cuddle Pixie, I combine my background in education with my real-life experiences to offer content that speaks to both the heart and mind of every parent.
Here, you’ll find a mix of parenting insights, creative ideas, and personal stories that celebrate the messy, magical journey of raising kids. I believe in learning from each other, finding joy in the little things, and embracing the unpredictability that comes with being a parent.
So, welcome to Cuddle Pixie! I’m excited to have you here, to share this journey with you, and to create a community where we can all find comfort, encouragement, and a bit of fun along the way.
Zohaib Sunesara
Hey, I’m Zohaib Sunesara, a proud dad and co-founder of Cuddle Pixie. With my son by my side, I’m on a mission to share heartfelt stories, parenting wisdom, and real-life experiences that connect us all. As a parent, I’ve come to appreciate the joys, challenges, and beautiful chaos of raising a child, and I’m here to offer a perspective that celebrates it all.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Mass Communication and a Graduate Diploma in Internet Communication from Curtin University, Australia. My passion for connecting with people and storytelling led me to further my education with a Parent Coaching course from Concordia University, where I deepened my understanding of child development and effective parenting strategies.
At Cuddle Pixie, I bring together my love for communication and my experiences as a father to create a space filled with love, learning, and lots of cuddles. From sharing the simple joys of everyday moments to navigating the more complex parts of parenting, I’m here to support you on your journey.
So, welcome to our cuddly corner of the internet! Join me as we navigate the ups and downs of fatherhood, embrace the unexpected, and celebrate every cuddle along the way.
