Nanny to Mommy

With kids stuck at home and parents wondering what to do, I have a list of great solutions to help keep everyone active and engaged. Many of these options are indoor or outdoor fun too! You could set up multiple for an epic obstacle course as well.




Even with somethings opening back up, I don't have any plans to rush out into the world. I am going to be honest, I am at a place where I want my family to be healthy and I want a few things to open up to get back to some normalcy. So in the mean time, here are some fun activities for your kids to enjoy at home for mind and body.

It’s safe to say that having children changes your priorities, and one big factor of life which can be pushed to the sidelines as a parent is your career, especially if you are a single parent. You suddenly have the entire responsibility of your child’s upbringing on your shoulders, and when it comes to a steady income, chasing your career dreams may not be at the forefront of your mind. This leaves many single parents sticking with a steady job whilst raising their child.

Nevertheless, having a child or being a single parent doesn’t mean that you can’t make the right steps to finding the career you love. Here are some of the ways you can feel less afraid about making an important career move whilst raising a child.

Mother's Day is quickly approaching. Have you thought about what you are sending to your loved one? During these unprecedented times, I thought I would share what you can do for your mom or grandmother or matriarch of your family that you can buy online and ship straight to their door. I have shared in the past gift ideas for mom that don't cost any money and while some of them may still be able to be done, some can't. When you can't be there in person because you are protecting the person you love, then these are great options to share.

Kudos to you if you're devoting some or all of your time to care for a senior member of your family. We're sure you're doing a wonderful job, even if you do feel the strain of your role at times.

However, you do need to look after yourself. Your health matters, and especially if you are feeling the strain of caring for your elderly parents or grandparents, you need to find ways to help yourself too.

Here are some suggestions we hope you find useful.

Back at the very beginning of December, my family and in-laws got professional pictures taken for the first time in a while. They were absolutely stunning. If you follow me on Instagram, then you have seen some of them sporadically.

Right now, things are so around here for me and the kiddos. We are homeschooling and that has taken up a big chunk of time, but I am also purging, reorganizing, and re-decorating all the things! I recently had the opportunity to work with CanvasOnDemand for a few canvas prints. I used the images from our family photoshoot and am absolutely in love with how they turned out!
