I‘ve been thinking about starting an advice column for new mommies or mommies in general for some time now.  I am not a parent yet (just a proud auntie), but I’ve heard how easily it is to become overwhelmed with a new baby.  Some of my clients are not only new parents, but are also new in town and don’t have friends to turn to.  I’ve passed along the tips that I’ve heard or read about to new mommies.  But how cool would it be to go to a place where you can hear from the experts themselves.  YOU! I don’t care if you’ve only been a parent for a week, are a working mom, or an auntie.   We all learn through experience.  So I want to hear from you.  I want my mommy readers to submit a short article about any topic that you think would be helpful to new moms. What do you wish you would have known before you were a parent?

So here are the details of how you can be featured on {Mommy Corner}:

Submit a short article (no longer than 4 paragraphs, but can be shorter) on any topic you’d like.  Here are some categories I would like to focus on: pregnancy, newborns, baby’s first year, toddlers, mommy blunders, funny stories about your kids, DIY projects, & yummy recipes!  You can give advice about something, share an experience you went through, or review a product (good or bad).

Also, submit a short bio about YOU.   Limit the bio to 4-6 sentences. Here are some things you can include:

• where you grew up
• how you met your significant other
• favorite hobbies
• favorite TV shows
• most embarrassing moment (if you are brave enough)
• what you did for your birthday last year
• your most precious memory
• favorite books/quotes
• favorite holiday & why?

Email the article & bio to me@wendhyjeffers.com. Have the subject line read Mommy Corner – Category (ex. “Newborn” for the Category).  I might re-edit part of your article if I see fit.  Lets get the submissions started!

I plan to do features  on {Mommy Corner} once or twice a month to start off.  Not only will your article be featured on our blog along with your short bio, but we will also feature your website, blog (but you don’t have to have one), or business at the end of the article.  Not to mention, the satisfaction of helping other moms who are probably going through the same things you are.  Do not stress if you aren’t a writer, no one is here to judge.  Please do not let this hold you back, I want to hear from you.

I want {Mommy Corner} to be a place where we can go to for help and support.  I want all of the mommies out there to know how special and important they are.  You guys have such an important job as parents.  I want you to know that you are not alone.  I LOVE each and every one one of you.

And we have to end this post with a cute photo…

p.s. Thanks Jen for helping me come up with the name Mommy Corner!
