Our founder, Kelly Arditi, launched Mid-Peninsula Moms Blog in August 2017, after the successful launch of San Francisco Moms Blog in January, 2016. We’ve been steadily growing our readership and community since then, thanks to you, our readers!
What’s With This “Moms Blog” Stuff?
Both San Francisco Moms Blog and Mid-Peninsula Moms Blog are part of the City Moms Blog Network which has sister sites all across the country. Each team creates original content (you won’t see it anywhere else) for their site that’s meant to connect local moms by sharing honest parenting information, creative ideas, opportunities for philanthropy, and fun local events.
Why We Love Partnerships
Sometimes we spotlight products or services in our blog posts and on social media that we think you should know about, and they’re often tagged as sponsored posts. When you see this, it means that we believe this particular company’s offerings will make your life or your family’s lives a little easier, a little more fun, or a little more meaningful. To share this information with you, we partner with the businesses behind them to test them out. This way, we’re giving you honest information about our experiences, and we’re sure to only work with partners we believe to be reputable and resourceful to you. Keep an eye out for these kinds of posts – discounts or giveaways often accompany them, and you can always find the archive of companies we’ve worked with here. Consider this page the library of our favorite things! If you’re interested in working with us, reach out to us here.
Let’s Connect Face-to-Face
We are working with local sponsors to host events throughout the year. Some will be meant for the whole family to enjoy and others are mom-only affairs. All are intended to get us out from behind our screens to meet each other in-person. On top of these coordinated events, we launched Facebook Neighborhood Groups that are gaining traction in getting their own local meet-ups started. If we’re being honest about events, they’re only fun if you show up, so tell us what kind of activities you’d love to see happen, join our neighborhood groups to get the conversations started, and keep tabs on our upcoming events, so you don’t miss the fun.
We’re Real People!
All of us who write for San Francisco Moms Blog and Mid-Peninsula Moms Blog are really and truly local moms. Some of us are Bay Area natives or long-time residents and some of us recently moved to the area. We have babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged kids. Many of us work outside the home and some of us do all our work within it. We try our best to represent a cross-section of moms in the city so that we can share articles that resonate with you. In fact, we’re always open to bringing more voices to the table, so if you’re interested in becoming a contributor, drop us a line at info@SanFranciscoMomsBlog.com, info@MidPeninsulaMomsBlog.com, or check out our Guest Post Submission page.
And if you prefer to sit back and read what we’ve got to say, we’re okay with that, too!
