Built by a mom who needed it
Hi — I’m Rachel. I live in Haarlem with my husband David, my three-year-old Luca, and my baby Louisa. I have a day job in marketing. I have side projects I’ve been trying to build for years. And like a lot of mom-builders, I have approximately one 45-minute window per day to actually work on the side projects, if I’m lucky.
Six months ago I had one of those windows. I sat down. I opened my laptop. And I spent the first 25 minutes trying to remember what I was working on.
That kept happening. Not occasionally. Every single time.
So I built the thing I needed
I started using AI — specifically Claude with a configuration file called CLAUDE.md — as a kind of co-founder that remembered where I left off. I’d open the laptop, say "what were we doing", and it would tell me. The first 20 minutes of every nap window stopped being lost.
Over a few months I refined the setup. I added a memory system so learnings persisted. I built named agents for different domains: one for the side project, one for content, one for life admin. I added a quiz to figure out what to even build first.
Then friends started asking how I did it. So I packaged it up. That’s Nap Stack.
What this actually is
Nap Stack is a digital product — templates, prompts, configuration files, and a 30-minute setup walkthrough — that lets you turn generic AI into something that feels like a co-founder who knows you. €47, one-time, 14-day refund if it doesn’t click.
It’s not a course. There’s no community. There’s no upsell. It’s a system you install once and then use during nap time forever.
Who this is for
- Moms who haven’t lost the part of themselves that builds things — they just haven’t had a 45-minute window to be that person in for a while.
- Anyone who’s tired of starting over every session.
- People who like quiet, considered tools more than hustle-bro productivity content.
Who this is not for
- People looking for a course or community.
- People who want a "boss babe" / "mama hustle" energy. That’s not the brand.
- People who already have a developer-grade AI workflow set up. You don’t need this.
The business
Nap Stack is operated by Rachel Elz Studios — a Dutch sole proprietorship registered in Haarlem (VAT NL004940031B35). It’s a small thing on purpose. The goal is to help moms ship real work, not to build a unicorn.
