The NYMetroParents blogroll features the best blogs in the parenting world, from New York and beyond. Here’s a closer look at why we love these mom bloggers and dad bloggers and how they’re shaping the web for parenting today.
Blogging From: Manhattan
Risa Goldberg and Leslie Venokur are the masterminds behind the social event and meet up group known as Big City Moms. The two sisters put together this site for the purpose of creating a resource for “moms, moms-to-be, and families.” While the events are slightly more geared toward working moms, anyone can appreciate browsing “Big City Mom Cutest Kid of the Week”, or reading up on Big City Moms’s “Supermom of the Week,” a column of interviews with mothers who answer questions like what it means to be a mom, what their favorite products are, and what their experience with multi-tasking has been like.
The site also provides helpful lists for a variety of categories. Whether you are shopping for a holiday gift or deciding what to name your child—these NYC moms will give you the resources needed to help you out. They even have a nanny exchange where they list the names, availability times, and contact information of nannies that live all throughout the city. — Holly Tucker
