Ages + Stages

children of different ages + stages of childhood

In an ideal world, parenting through ages + stages would be simple. There would be a how-to on every scenario and a handbook you could follow. However, we know that’s not the case, every child is different and needs special love, care, and nurturing. Without a parenting guide, what can you do? New Orleans Mom is here to help. We have many contributors with diverse backgrounds and different family structures. Our team of over 30 contributors brings experiences from all walks of life and parenthood. We have you covered no matter what ages + stages of parenthood you’re going through, our moms have been there.

If you’re starting and wondering can pregnancy dreams predict the gender of your baby, we’ve written about that. The first few weeks with a newborn can be overwhelming. Reducing your stress is key to allowing yourself time to bond with your little one. In one of our most popular posts, we have tips on setting boundaries with loved ones. We’ve also created guides to help you find resources in New Orleans. One of our most popular guides is our Guide to Childcare and Preschools. These are just some of the most popular posts from our ages + stages category, and we continually add more. From pregnancy to the teenage years, we’ve got you covered. 

Through all ages + stages of childhood, we are here to help with resources to help you. Whether that help is guiding you to solutions or simply helping you feel not so alone. Let us help you navigate those ages + stages with ease.

Sassipotimus is the name we call my three-year-old daughter when she is taken over by some crazed alter-ego. The sassipotimus has little resemblance to my normally sweet little girl. While on the outside they may look the same, on...

A year and a half ago, I was approached by Ashley and Elizabeth (the founders of this blog) to write for the New Orleans Moms Blog. At the time, the City Moms Blog Network was a burgeoning concept that would gather...

My mother-in-law often tried to shy away from the camera, and I am not sure why. She was a beautiful woman, both in and out. She had gorgeous blue eyes that lit up when she told me sweet stories...
There was nothing that really prompted me to write this post but it was just something that has come up in conversation lately, especially among new mom friends. It’s HARD to make or keep friends once you have kids....
When I was in my late teens and early twenties, Mardi Gras was all fun and games: Popeyes, frozen daiquiris (alcoholic only after I turned 21, of course, in case my own mom is reading this) and camping out...
