Mamas Link 

A Social and Educational Community of Moms and Moms-to-be!

I love being a mom. When I became a mom for the first time in April 2009, I was lucky to make a network of friends all going through similar experiences.  It was amazing to have a support network to share the joys and fears of motherhood with.  Many of my friends who experienced motherhood without that type of support network felt lonely and isolated and struggled with their identity as they transitioned into parenthood.  I came to realize how imperative it was to have a strong community of friends, it can be lifesaving.  After my maternity leave ended, I left my teaching job in MCPS and found a perfect way to marry my interest of education, my love for parenthood and my desire to connect with others.  I created Mamas Link, a program that connects moms and moms-to-be and gives them unique learning opportunities and fun ways to bond with other moms and their babies.

Mamas Link features the popular mommy and me class called “The Six Week Hook Up”, formerly called Onesies DC; Mamas-to-be events; special events and seminars; a nanny posting; blog; and additional mommy resources.  Classes are held in NoVa, MD and DC.

The popular “Six Week Hook-up” mommy and me class is a program featuring weekly activities (a six week session) including talks by local experts, lunches, a chance to create keepsakes, and what’s more, an opportunity to connect with other moms of infants.  Activities and workshops in the lineup may include mother-baby fitness, music, yoga, infant massage, photography services, lactation consulting, CPR instruction, nutrition counseling and much more.

Mamas Link special event topics run the gamut from breastfeeding and finding a nanny to introducing baby food.  Some upcoming events include a seminar about healthy sleep, baby food 101, expert training in breastfeeding and newborn care and CPR training. Events are held at various venues, may include up to 100 attendees, include delicious food and gifts galore.  Attendees leave with swag bags and raffle prizes from local and national sponsors.  Mamas Link helps women learn the latest in parenting, introduces them to the best and hottest products and gives them an opportunity to connect with other women to form lasting friendships.
