The City Moms Blog Network helps women around the country launch locally-focused collaborative blogs in the cities where they live. We provide turnkey systems in the startup phase, ongoing education and resources for continued support, and a community of fellow site owners eager to share best practices. Our sites are owned by women who live and parent in the communities they write about, and who are passionate about bringing local information to their fellow moms.
City Moms Blog Network started in June of 2011, springboarding on the success of the first sister site, Scottsdale Moms Blog, which started in March of 2010.
Co-founded by friends Steph Flies and Joy Cherrick, the City Moms Blog Network is making a difference in communities across the nation.
