Introducing DC Area Mom Collective!

0

We started DC Area Moms Blog with a heart for Washington, DC and the moms who live here. Two years in and that is still our passion. Our mission is to create an inclusive, encouraging space for motherhood in our Nation’s Capitol. Our site has been updated with a fresh look and new name that fits better with what we do. We are a group of moms who collectively write for the site, collectively host and attend events, collectively engage and message on social media, and collectively spur one another on in motherhood. We are now DC Area Mom Collective!

Our real life stories, parenting perspectives, and fun ideas are written FOR DC area moms, BY DC area moms. We offer relevant resources to help make life a little easier so you have more time to enjoy your family. We host events so we can gather together, meet new mom friends, and simply have fun!

Why do we write articles, create useable, valuable resources, and host fun events? For you! We are here to serve YOU! We know all of us moms could use a pat on the back and a friend to say “you are doing great, Mama!”. You see, our articles are meant to be more than just written words. We want to inspire and encourage you on your motherhood journey! It takes a village and we strive to be that village.

We know this is a hard time with COVID-19. We feel it too and are right there with you schooling at home and trying to keep life afloat. But even with this pandemic and social distancing, we need one another. We hope that you find encouragement and resources on our site that help make your days more fun and life a little easier.

We are so thankful to be linking arms with so many amazing women in the DMV. Thank you for being a part of our community! We strive to inspire you, but know that you inspire us too! Always feel free to message us. It makes us happy to hear from you. If you haven’t already, please join our newsletter to stay in the know, follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for articles and fun giveaways, and join our newly formed Facebook groups!

Sincerely,

Courtney

Courtney Whittington
Courtney was born and raised in Louisiana where she met her husband (married in 2005). They have moved several times, but finally feel very settled in NW DC after moving back in 2016. She has four energetic kids: Cormac (2010), Evangeline (2013), Solomon (2016), and Antoinette (2019). She thinks motherhood is absolutely wonderful, but is constantly trying to figure out how to manage it all. She spends her days talking Star Wars, playing with legos, doing crafts, having tea parties, and chasing her toddler. Motherhood is wonderful and wild and in 2017 she banded together with other mothers to start DC Area Moms to inspire, learn, and grow together. She loves morning coffee, chocolate, chatting with people since she's an extrovert, a clean house (which is rare these days). She dislikes when her kids don't listen the first time, she abhors littering, and doesn't enjoy shopping.
