Beautiful Moms blog was started in 2008, as I was raising my children. I wanted to create an outlet in which I could express my thoughts on parenting, seek advice from other mothers, and discover great products and companies that make life being a mother easier.

I am PR Friendly and love working with great companies! Please email me at [email protected]
