About

Mom Starter Guide was built by a real mom who’s been in the weeds, twice.

I’m a mom of two boys, ages 3 and 5, living in rural northwest Texas with my husband of 10 years. I work full time as a high school teacher, and I’ve navigated the newborn stage after two C-sections while exclusively breastfeeding both of my kids. So yes, I know tired.

When I was preparing for my first baby, I felt completely buried. The product lists were endless, the advice was contradictory, and so much of it just didn’t feel realistic for actual life. I spent way too much money on things I never used and missed a few things I actually needed.

That’s why I created this space. To cut through the noise and share what genuinely helped, from registry must-haves to postpartum recovery to planning guides rooted in real experience, not theory.

My goal is simple: help you feel more prepared, more confident, and a little less alone in all of it.
