Established in 2013

First Time Parent Magazine was founded in 2013 after I became pregnant with my first child. As a former career 'tech chick,' I searched high and low, sifting through every resource I could find to prepare myself for parenthood. Then, I realized that other new parents could benefit from what I discovered! Especially when it comes to weeding out the fluff and getting down to the really juicy and usable information. The magazine was born, and I've been donating my time to curating monthly magazine issues for the last nine years. Now, it is time for me to put all of my hard work into a more sustainable and modern package that I truly hope is one of the most valuable resources you've come across so far.

My goal is to help you give your baby the best start in life and for you and your relationships to thrive in the process.
