What inspired you to become a work at home mom:
The birth of my daughter and the work of Dr. Harvey Karp and his philosophy on
"The Happiest Baby on the Block". After having my second child I realized I
could not go back to work and risk missing a second of their amazing lives!! Dr.
Karp has helped make that possible by training Educators to teach his class. The
business spiraled from his course into an amazing Parent Resource Center.
