A resource to inspire, inform and empower parents.

The Ultimate MommyCon Giveaway

I’ve been with MommyCon for over a year now. The only comments I have ever seen about the fastest growing natural parenting convention are “What is MommyCon?” or “I love MommyCon.” Proving that to know MommyCon is to love MommyCon.

What is MommyCon? MommyCon is a parenting convention that focuses on natural and organic parenting methods. Seminars and workshops include; babywearing, birth, breastfeeding, cloth diapering, car seat safety, natural health and medicine, baby gear, childproofing and much more. The focus is to bring like-minded mothers together. In a modern world where Moms are more isolated from each other than ever, this concept of introducing Moms to alternative parenting practices with the goal of creating community is truly revolutionary and I believe it is the secret to its success.

You will watch inspiring talks by The Leaky Boob about a world where breastfeeding is normalized, crack up when you are introduced to the world from your toddler’s point of view by Honest Toddler, and become empowered to challenge and question culturally accepted forms of authority by The Badass Breastfeeder.

You will get schooled on babywearing by Beco, car seat safety by Alyssa Adams Ruben, CPST and seduced by incredible giveaways by Jamie Grayson The Baby Guy NYC. You will be introduced to cutting edge parenting products that you won’t see anywhere else. Walking through the vendors is truly mesmerizing. You’ll never look at shopping the same again.

Most importantly, you will join a group of parents who are becoming empowered by this movement to come together, connect, support and create community. Parents all over the country are meeting, making lasting connections to people right in their communities and freeing themselves from isolation during these often nerve-wracking child-bearing years.

What Isn’t MommyCon? MommyCon is not exclusive. All parents are welcome, of all walks of life, of all parenting styles, of all feeding styles, of all race, gender, ethnicity and sexual orientation. No matter who you are or where you are in your parenting journey you are welcome. Whether you are expecting your first child or are expecting more grandchildren you are welcome.

MommyCon is not the internet. You will meet people in the most important form; face to face. Human beings are social creatures and it’s vital that we connect in real life. When this happens all of the barriers that keep us from forming connections disappear. You will not experience insults, judgment or ousting. You will socialize with people who are parenting in all sorts of ways and it won’t interfere with your ability to create a meaningful connection.
