How did MommyCon get it’s start?

It all started with documenting my thoughts on motherhood through a blog called The Mommy Dialogues. I was hosting meet-up’s in the Chicago area, and as they grew, I realized that there was a need for events for parents everywhere. MommyCon was born out of that need, and quickly expanded across North America.

What can people expect to find and experience at a MommyCon convention?

We have a jam-packed schedule of workshops and seminars ranging from Cloth Diapering 101, through to infant nutrition, wrapping 101, and female health and wellness. We also have an exhibition hall featuring 80+ exhibitors. Be prepared for some serious shopping!Meet the Creator of MommyCon, Find Out Why You Need to be There.
