We are excited to read your submissions! We will only accept well-written and creative articles that meet the below requirements.
Our Requirements:
Your submission must be at least 2000 words long with at least 1 stock image (or image you took yourself), and written in high-quality English. Your words must not be published elsewhere, and must be be 100% unique content. We use Copyscape to test originality. Good free stock photo resources are Pexels.com and Unsplash.com.

We encourage submissions that describe your own personal experiences as a mom-to-be, a dad-to-be, and/or a parent. We prefer submissions that can become a useful resource for moms-to-be and new parents, rather than simply an anecdotal glimpse into your life. Absolutely no political opinions, or opinions with strong political connotations.
If you submit your Name and a Photo of yourself, we will add you to this page, including a link to your email address and/or personal website (this must be a personal website, not an affiliate or e-commerce site).

What to include:
If you are ready to submit a full article, you must email us a single Word document that includes all of the following. If you fail to include something, your article will not be considered for publication:
Article Title: This needs to be snappy. Get title ideas by looking at some of the more popular parenting articles on Medium.com.

The link must be to a personal website, email, or social media page, and we will not include links to any affiliate or e-commerce sites. No other links are acceptable, and we do not accept payment for link inclusion or sponsored links or posts.
Please do not send us anything other than a Microsoft Word document! Because we are picky about what we publish, we cannot guarantee that your submission will be considered for publication. We will try our best to reply to every submission! If we do not reply within 4 weeks of your submission, your article was not a good fit for our site, and you can publish it elsewhere. We also cannot guarantee a prompt reply due to the volume of submissions.

If we choose to publish your unique content on our site, we will compensate you for your work. Authors with higher experience levels or professional certification (e.g., CPST, OT, SLP, MD, PhD) are encouraged to contact us for a negotiated rate.
