Activities that might just fulfill mom
Below are a few things that make my day-to-day as a working, SAHM, a little more manageable and they might just help you too:
SpoonLickers Meal Delivery
Picture this - no meal planning, no cooking stress. SpoonLickers hooks you up with delicious, fresh, nourishing foods that cater to diets like Keto, Paleo, and Whole 30. Just order by Saturday, and your meals land on your doorstep by Tuesday. Easy peasy.
Mamaste Prenatal and Postnatal Fitness
Kudos to MamasteFit for taking postnatal recovery seriously. Their gym, conveniently located off US 5 in Aberdeen, offers strength and conditioning sessions for pre and postnatal mamas, and guess what, your kids are welcome to join in. Moms get their workout in while their little ones roam safely around the gym or engage in designated play areas with other kiddos. Plus, this gym isn't just about fitness - they offer kids’ lifting classes, play dates, childbirth education, massage therapies, chiropractic care, and doula services.
If a focus on lifting and mobility isn’t your jam, S.L.A.M. or Forte Fitness might be a better fit for you. At S.L.A.M. children can happily tag along and Forte offers childcare for specific classes.
Twelve Million Plus (12M+)
Need a space to connect or work while you have the kids around? Twelve Million Plus is a welcoming community developed for active, veteran, and reserve/National Guard spouses. While it might not be an all-day hangout for the little ones, it's perfect for squeezing in some work or emails between errands. Plus, if the kids need more action, Pollywogs Playpad is just across the street for drop-off care (and a short break for mom).
A Direct Flight to Paris 😉
Just imagine — no layover in Chicago or New York, skip all of that and head straight to Paris from RDU. It's a relatively short flight at decent prices. Every mom deserves a break, and why not take it with nonstop movies in the air and unlimited wine & croissants once landed? If Paris isn’t in the near future then check out the local events below which are tailored specifically to you! Take the time, mama.
