Tips and advice for parents, from parents and educators in the community!

I give myself a fresh manicure every week or two, and my daughter (5) and son (2) like to sit with me and watch. I’m almost surprised it took them this long, but today my daughter asked me if I could paint her nails, too, and then as soon as she wanted that, so did my son. I told them I’d think about it. How do you moms feel about painting your kiddos’ nails? Am I making too big of a deal about it? Do they allow kids to have their nails painted at preschool?

Second time mom here! My oldest was born in a hospital, but I am considering delivering my next child through a water birth. Do any of you have experience with water births, and even better if you’ve experienced traditional births in a hospital, too. Thank you mommies!

My little one keeps having accidents on our bed and I can’t seem to get the pee smell out! How can I clean it? I tried detergent, but the smell still hasn’t gone away. Anyone experienced this?

Does anyone have advice on what to do after bathtime? My daughter is almost 7 weeks and she’s happy in the bath, but when we take her out she gets upset and cries for 10 to 15 minutes. I always make sure to wrap her in a towel as soon as we take her out and I’ve even started heating the room to almost 80 degrees! Any tips on how to keep her from getting so upset or how to calm her down quickly after taking her out of the water?
