A Good Family Background

Sharing Her Passion for Cooking
Jessica loves cooking and sharing her kitchen secrets with others. Realizing that a lot of people wanted to get their hands on her recipes, she started writing cookbooks.

Giving a Helping Hand
As her first child grew, Jessica Seinfeld realized that she had a huge collection of baby clothes and equipment that she didn’t need anymore. She was about to throw them away when it occurred to her that less fortunate families could use the items for their children. This gave her the idea to form the “Baby Buggy” charity in 2001 with a motto of “Love. Recycled.” Baby Buggy’s goal was to help families in need by supplying them the essentials required for the health and well-being of their babies. Now called the Good+, the foundation expanded to give entire families the things they need, donating nearly $35.0 million in supplies, and expanding to 155 programs throughout the country.
A Warm & Generous Lady
The Seinfelds have three children; daughter Sascha, and sons Julian Kal and Shepherd Kellen. All three were born in New York, and grew up in a close, loving, and warm family. Jessica Seinfeld’s Instagram account is full of pictures of the things that she truly cares about like her kids, husband, friends, pets (lots of cats and dogs), home, and of course, food that looks good enough to eat! It is clear that Seinfeld is a happy and generous person who likes to help those less fortunate.
