About

Hi. I'm the mom behind Mom Tried These.

I work from home. I travel for work. I parent. Some days all three before lunch.

I run the house a bit like a project. Milestones, checkpoints, a running list of what worked and what didn't. Crazy, I know. But hey, here I am!

This site is that list, made public. The activities that bought me a meeting. The lunchbox system that ended the morning panic. The travel kit we actually fly with. The coffee and the hand cream that make me feel human again.

The rule is simple: only the ones I kept. If it stopped getting used, it's off the list. No exceptions, no sentimental keeping. Read more on how I pick.

How this site makes money

When you buy through a link here, Amazon may pay me a small commission. It costs you nothing extra, and it never decides what goes on a list. No brand pays for a spot. Ever. Full disclosure.
