Co-sleeping is one of those always-controversial parenting choices. Some moms and dads swear by it and feel that having a cozy family bed is the best way to increase the amount of sleep that everyone in the house is getting (especially when late-night feedings are still on the menu). Other parents, and some medical associations, argue that co-sleeping is potentially dangerous and can make it hard for babies and toddlers to learn to sleep on their own.
As with any controversial parenting topic, it’s always interesting to see which celebrity parents decide to be outspoken about their choices. This includes those stars who are all about the co-sleeping lifestyle and who have openly shared why they love having their little (and not-so-little) ones in bed with them.
Some of the names on this list aren’t surprising at all — because we know they are outspoken attachment parents and crunchy mamas — but we were a little surprised at some of the other happy co-sleepers out there. Put on some jammies and read on for 15 celebrity parents who love co-sleeping with their kids and who aren’t afraid to talk about it.
Alicia Silverstone
Julia Fox
Sometimes actress, former girlfriend of Kanye West, and perpetually fame-chasing Julia Fox had people talking when she gave a now-viral tour of her apartment on TikTok. During that tour, she revealed that her son, Valentino, has his own space but prefers to sleep with her. “He only wants to be in mama’s room,” she said. “He doesn’t even sleep in his room. He sleeps in bed with me. Yeah, we’re co-sleepers. Sue me, I don’t care.”
Alanis Morissette
Alanis Morissette is another proud attachment parenting mama. In addition to being pro-baby wearing and all in for extended breastfeeding, the “You Oughta Know” singer also shared pictures of her cozy — but maybe a little crowded — family bed as she, her husband, and her three kids snuggled up together.
Kim Kardashian
Most of the time, we don’t think Kim Kardashian is a particularly relatable mom, but we can’t help but agree that there are few things sweeter than the cozy snuggles of our sleeping kids. We just kind of have to laugh that Kim may have an absolutely massive house but still wakes up with all of her children crowded into one room.
Kourtney Kardashian
Kourtney Kardashian loved co-sleeping with son Mason so much that it was even a plot point in her 2012 reality series Kourtney and Kim Take New York. In fact, Mason was her main bed buddy, as baby daddy Scott Disick slept in a separate room from the pair, despite his best efforts to try to share a bed with them.
Kristen Bell
One of our favorite oversharing moms is Kristen Bell. She revealed during a guest appearance on husband Dax Shepard’s podcast, Armchair Expert, that while the couple doesn’t share a bed with their daughters, they do co-sleep in the same room. Lincoln and Delta bunk on their floor, and Kristen said the four family members in one room sometimes leads to “a really raunchy smell” due to “family gas.” (See what we mean by oversharing?)
Nicole 'Snooki' Polizzi
In 2021, Jersey Shore alum Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi shared with Us Weekly that her family does boys’ and girls’ segregated co-sleeping. “I sleep with my daughter, and then [husband] Jionni sleeps with Lorenzo in his bed,” she explained. But she added that she and Jionni still make “romantic time” a priority by arranging meetups in the guest room.
