Our Story
We started zPods based on a unique perspective of witnessing the ongoing problem with restless children. George Bailey, President of zPods, has a son named Joseph. Joseph has autism, a chronic sleep disorder, and a sensory processing disorder. Much to Joseph’s parents’ concern, Joseph often dances around his room late into the night, waving pencils or plastic utensils in his hands to calm himself.
As George has been so deeply embedded with his son's challenges, he started thinking about other children that go through similar challenges as Joseph. Such as Natalie, a 13 year old Autistic and Schizophrenic young lady, who was sleeping in her closet until she got her zPod. Eventually, inspiration took over and George started working with Gary Kellman and Jeff Wade to create the ultimate sleep solution for kids like Joseph and Natalie.
At zPods, we've closely examined the diverse and complicated sleep needs of these extraordinary children and have been inspired to support all children in finding restful sleep. We look at zPods as the opportunity to change the lives of many families because it's not just the children that can use more sleep, but the parents that care for them as well.
