What Pittsburgh women
are saying about Urban Mommies:
"As a new mom, I've felt
every spectrum of every emotion. I loved being around other
new mothers who are going through the same things. It helped
my confidence and it gave me something to look forward to every
week. Thank you."
"I thoroughly enjoyed my
Urban Mommies experience. For me, I don't think it was so much
about the places we went as much as it was about meeting and
connecting with other women. I joined Urban Mommies to meet
other women who were new moms. I was looking for other women
to share experiences and to learn from. I got that from Urban
Mommies. The tours were usually just icing on the cake."
"I made some good friends,
and I've loved exploring our city. I can't wait until my child
is older so that she can appreciate what a great city she's
a part of."
"I just really enjoyed
all the people I met through this program and doing something
for myself at the same time. It felt good to practice taking
my baby out of the house. It was great to be with other people
who felt it was OK that your baby was fussing while you were
trying to eat lunch. I liked being able to say to someone else
'Did your baby ever...?' or 'What did you do when...?'."
"I felt I didn't have that
much to talk about with my husband when he came home from work.
But with Urban Mommies, I could talk about the places we went,
what I learned and share conversations I had. Being a part of
this program certainly made me feel like my old self while I
was off with my baby."
"Urban Mommies made me
do things I love to do but otherwise wouldn't have been able
to with the business of a new baby. It also was nice to have
an intellectual experience after dealing with diapers and breastmilk
all day and night!"
