Sherry's Austin TX Real Estate Blog: Connecting Mom's in your community.

Connecting Mom's in your community.

 This is a great resource for families and especially mom's relocating to your area.

Mother's don't always Mickeyknow how to find the best pediatrician in the area, or just general questions like how to get crayon off a painted wall or how to throw a baby shower for adoptive parents.  Two of today's questions in my area were: Where can I find piano lessons for my 6 year old and how can I get my 3 year old to stop whining!

MamaSource is the answer. It is totally free! You just sign up and are sent update's daily with new questions from other mom's who need advice, or you submit your question.  Since it is area specific, it can be a great new way to meet friends with kids the same age, or with specific needs. This would be great for the new mom's-to-be to ask questions also.  Dads can ask questions too of course!

Kathy- I have sent them an email requesting that information since it just says it good all over the country.  I will let you know when I hear back. 

Allen and Tracy- This is a site that is about mom's and mom owned businesses,  So if you own a business you can input your information, and help out other businesses owned by moms. The more women who join, the larger the database for your area.  You can pay to advertise for about $10 a month, but the information on the questions that come in is so interesting! You invite other mom's to join, so it's another way to keep your name in front of your clients or friends.

Kathy- I received this info back:

At this time our system is set up only to take U.S. zip codes. If would like to invite moms from outside the U.S., they may join and enter a U.S. zip code in order to get or give general, non-location specific advice or support.

Charity & Norma- I hope you and your clients enjoy!
