Ria Sharon | Parent Coach’s Summary
For me, "mommyhood" has been full of lessons. Whether the next challenge is sleeping through the night, or teething or potty training, each successive stage pushes me to stretch just outside my comfort zone.
I HELP PREGNANT WOMEN AND MOMS
My goal is to provide pregnant women and new moms with the resources they need during this critical time to feel good about their journey as the best parents to their children.
HOW I HELP MOMS
On www.MyMommyManual.com, new moms will find advice from experts and experienced moms that can help them along their parenting journey.
Because pregnant women and new moms are both hungry for helpful and useful information — and need access to it quickly, the site is organized to provide answers in "How to..." form: How to Nurse Your Baby, How to Write a Birth Plan, How to Use Baby Sign Language....
These tips are sourced from both mom readers and expert moms: Infant Massage Therapists, Lactation Consultants, Doulas, Midwives, Childbirth Educators, Child Therapists, Psychologists, Parenting Coaches, Life Coaches, Business Coaches, and Registered Nurses.
The site is also a growing mommy community, with readers contributing their own stories for the DEFINING MOMMY MOMENTS column. (Send me a message for details!) And supporting each others' shared experiences and Mommy Wisdom.
I invite you to join the Inner Circle by signing up for my exclusive tips from experts and in the weekly newsletter:
