Hey there! Dylan Dreyer, the beloved Today show host, recently gave her fans a delightful peek into the charmingly decorated bedroom where her three little bundles of joy—Calvin, Oliver, and Russell—share space in their New York City apartment. In a sweet Instagram video posted on June 1, Dylan was seen making the beds while her trio of kiddos helped out in their own playful way.
“And that’s how it’s done. Way more fun for some than for me!” Dylan joked in the caption, clearly enjoying the chaos and laughter that comes with raising three boys under one roof.
In the video, the boys are seen frolicking around in a sea of pillows, taking little naps on the cozy quilt while their mom works on tidying up the beds. The room is an adorable haven for these young brothers, featuring three bunk beds crafted with a sleek, modern white wooden frame. The walls are adorned with vibrant framed pictures, and there’s even a touch of magic with star stickers placed above the top bunk, giving the space a whimsical charm.

A Peek Inside Their Cozy NYC Nest
Now, let’s be real. NYC living can be tight, and Dylan hasn’t shied away from addressing the naysayers who thought her apartment might not be spacious enough for her growing family. Back in January 2022, she shared a candid Instagram photo of the boys’ bedroom with a caption that perfectly summed up her approach to making the most of what they’ve got.
“‘You have to move,’ they said. ‘You’ll never fit in your apartment,’ they said. ‘Time for a bigger place,’ they said. This is how you do it in NYC. I think they all fit just fine … for now. #nycliving #my3sons #roommates,” she wrote, proving that sometimes a little creativity and love can turn even the smallest spaces into a cozy sanctuary.
Family Ties and Parenting Lessons
Dylan shares her three wonderful boys with her husband, Brian Fichera, whom she married in 2012. As any parent knows, raising kids comes with its fair share of challenges, but Dylan has learned some valuable lessons along the way. One of her most memorable takeaways came from none other than Julia Roberts, who appeared as a guest on the Today show.
“Julia Roberts was on the show talking to Hoda [Kotb] about how sometimes you’re gonna have a bad mom day, but you can just make up for it the next day and have a better mom day,” Dylan told TODAY Parents back in November 2022. It’s a comforting reminder that parenting isn’t about being perfect—it’s about showing up and doing your best each day.
“There are days where I just feel like I don’t want to put in the extra effort. I just want to get to bedtime. I just need [them] to go to sleep,” she admitted, reminding us all that even the most put-together moms have those moments. It’s okay to have a “bad mom day” because tomorrow is always a fresh start.
Connecting with Fellow Parents
Dylan often finds herself bonding with Hoda Kotb, who’s also a mom to two daughters, Haley and Hope. At 59 years young, Hoda understands the joys and struggles of parenting, and the two share a special camaraderie.

“Our kids are basically the same age,” Dylan explained. “You want someone who can commiserate with you for a minute as opposed to, ‘Oh, that happened to my kids a long time ago. You’ll be fine.’ I don’t want to hear that it’ll be fine. Just let me vent for a second.”
