My name is Charlene, and I’m a full time mom to Zee, the most incredible little person on the planet. I love shopping, traveling, chocolate, reading, and music (no specific genre, if its good, I’ll play it at full blast and sing along!). I’ve been married to an amazing, loving man for 9 years. While hubby is at work, my day consists of teddy bear tea parties, cartoons, princess dress up, driving to ballet lessons, mommy-daughter milkshake dates, and reading fairy tales. Oh yes, and in between all that, I squeeze in a bit of cooking and cleaning too. I love this mommy gig, tantrum-filled moments and all.
I blog about style and fashion – what I’m wearing, what Zee is wearing, and sometimes the weird or wonderful outfits celebs are wearing. I blog about places we’ve been, food we’ve tried, things we’ve seen.

2. 3 Kids, 2 Dogs and 1 Old House
I’m Cindy, the author/blog slave behind 3 Kids, 2 Dogs and 1 Old House.
Although I may be the one writing it – my handsome, hipster husband Seth, our beautiful daughters Kyla (4) and Riya (3) and our long awaited little boy Knox (1) are the reason that I started (and continue) to blog. Capturing our life together in a fun and interesting way is really important to me – I’m always hoping that they will go back and read it one day.
We are all about good coffee, wine and chocolate, kids crafts, grain/dairy free yummy food, gorgeous kids clothes, DIY projects that make our house more of a home, throw in some tattoos and the love to just spend time together as a family exploring what Cape Town (and South Africa) have available to us and that would just about sum us up – sort of. While all those things are awesome and fun I want to always be real about parenting being super rewarding but also really challenging.
You, Baby and I is a network created to organise events online and offline for parents and kids. We blog, we review and share our favourite brands.
Hi… I’m Shan, I’m 23 years old with a 20 month baby girl from Gauteng South Africa. I’m a Brand Evangelist/Blogger/Vlogger who loves sharing my views and discussing my favourite brands. I got married when I was 21 to an awesome guy =) from Sri Lanka, who shares the same interests as me. We are best friends, business partners, parents, husband and wife. We were lucky enough to be blessed with a baby girl named Kitana on August 2nd 2012.
On my blog, I will be honest and share my emotions as a young mother. I’m obsessed with social media, spa treatments, travel, fine dining and anything baby.
4. The Erudite Mom
I am a single mother to a beautiful boy, and I’m loving it. I am an info junkie, my blog is where I share all my research. I follow a natural / attachment parenting philosophy, and am passionate about breastfeeding.

5. Exclusive Pumpers South Africa
I am mommy to an amazing little girl. She was never able to latch onto the breast as a baby so I chose to exclusively pump instead of formula feeding. My blog is a support structure for moms who pump, be it exclusively or occasionally for work. I have breast pump reviews, tips and tricks and loads of links to important information for moms who pump.
6. Life Like Mine
I’m a single mom to the most beautiful little girl, and we live in gorgeous city of Cape Town. I blog about everything and anything, from beauty to music and of course, my daughter.
I am a 35 year old momtrepeneour. I have a BComm, partially completed qualifications in accounting honours, CIMA and short term insurance (notice the trend). I am currently studying as a chef (finally something I can relate to). I blog mainly about food and things related to it (Slip in a bit of life with out anyone noticing). I blog because my plants don’t talk back anymore and my kids ignore me. I’ve found a whole new social side to technology and am loving it (borrowed from McDs)
8. Muse Lee Mom
I’ve just started blogging. It’s a bit of a mismatch of things, homeschool stuff will pop up as will photography stuff, home mom stuff and basically a bit of every, just like a good muesli.
I am a Cape Town based mom, with one boy, he is currently 5. He is a special needs boy and I homeschool him.
I am a photographer, children and families when I’m not being a mom 🙂
What happens if you throw polka dots, cappuccinos, books or a kindle, a toddler who is super clever and prone to allergies and talks as much as her mama, a divorced single mom, a crazy crafty side and a frugal side of note, a mom trying to wrap her head around Motherhood and a lack of sleep and a people’s person who has a thing for cute egg timers and owls? Well me of course! I’m getting through all the insane and crazy bits of life, one step at a time!
10. Skimming Stones
My name is Ursula but friends and family call me Sula. I am a South African woman born in 1968. I love reading, writing, nature, travel, baking, poetry, music and life. Some of my work has been published: journal extracts in the South African anthology “Glass Jars Among Trees”, Fair Lady magazine and poetry in a few anthologies. My dream is to see my children’s book ‘Snuffles & the Cloud People’ published; this was illustrated by my mum. In 1996 I founded LiPS (The Durban Live Poets Society) which continues to thrive with a life of its own since I left Natal in 2000. I grew up in a creative environment: my Mum is an award winning artist and my Dad is a photographer. I am married (for the 2nd time) and have 4 children born in 89, 91, 07 & 10. After more than 20 years working in a corporate environment I gave up work to be at home with my children.
11. Confessions of a Zombie Mom
Zombie Mom, married to Zombie Dad, mom to two precious princesses: Poppet and Pixie. Seriously sleep-deprived. Reluctant coffee-drinker. Recovering chocoholic.
12. Italy Can Wait
I am Lily, an Icelandic living in South Africa with my partner, daughter and baby Bo. I am passionate about many things but suffering from a serious case of baby brain at the moment. Enjoying and adjusting to life in South Africa… And being a baby mum…Again. (It is so much harder this time around!)
R (My hubby to be) wants nothing more than to retire in Italy.. In the meantime, the kids have demanded a stable childhood filled with fairy tales – so we are, at least, trying to fulfill the stable childhood part…Putting down roots and, to be honest, just trying to get the kids into adulthood semi undamaged.
I want to use this blog to map our journey, get inspired and structure my scattered thoughts.
13. se7en
We are a homeschooling family with “Se7en + 1″ kids living in Cape Town, South Africa. We are a lifestyle blog, representing all things family. We blog about our life and times: arts and crafts; books we are reading; homeschooling and organising a family with eight kids. We love blogging about Cape Town, outings and adventures that we encounter in our day to day life. We also write about parenting and our wandering journey of raising our eight kids, ranging from tots to teens.
14. Toppie se Vrou
I’m a 28 year old mother of 3 kiddies, aged 5, 3 & almost 2.
I’m a work-from-home, stay-at-home mom with a small accounting business.
I love my life, my kids and my Toppie, my wonderful husband of almost 5 years now.
My kids….
Calum Daniel: My Miracle child, born on my birthday and survivor despite all the odds being against him. We had a difficult, emotional, roller coaster pregnancy with him, Wrap-around placenta (the start of placenta pervia) and numerous almost miscarriages.
Coel Jacob: My Happy child, born 4 days ahead of schedule, by surprising us and making me go into labour early. Always smiling, i can never be cross with him. He’s friendly and happy.
Codi-Beth: Our little Tiny Princess, new to the world. Growing everyday
My Toppie…..
My husband, my grump, the love of my life.
Hi, I am Maz. Welcome to my blog/sanitarium.
Even though I am a fashion designer and completely in love with it, this is not a fashion blog.. Well, not completely.
I am a working mom & self-confessed recovering workaholic. I have a gorgeous 3-year old girl and I am currently pregnant with baby #2! I live in the Southern Suburbs in Cape Town with my crazy skateboarding & craft beer loving husband, our two weird cats and of course little miss Mikayla Rose.
This is a place where I can release my thoughts & I have plenty (good, weird, and probably bad!) I don’t want my head to explode, so this will be my outlet.
All posts are based on my personal opinions & experiences, so please feel free to leave a comment; we can only learn and grow from listening to what others have to say.

16. Like Mother Like Daughter
I blog about life in general, being a mom and anything that I may or may not love doing…..
17. Daniel and Tasco
Musing of a Mom, Wife and a Writer rolled into one!
I’m the mom who is always rushing off in one directions and it seems that my son, Daniel, has inherited those traits. So I write about him, our lives and our history. Although I work full time, I try spend as much time writing as possible.
I am the author of the children’s book series called The Adventures of Daniel and Tasco, based on the gallivanting of my son Daniel and his German Shepherd friend Tasco. People’s journey to writing has always been such an inspiration and it was always my dream to write about my own life and thoughts so I made it happen!
My blog is about my life, how I perceive people and situations, which products I love and why. My life and my family. Lifestyle & beauty blog if you may.
19. Durban Mom
I love a good Mommy blog. The world has millions of determined women telling their stories, sharing their crafts, showing their homes and inspiring bakers around the world.
This is my contribution to world of Mommy blogs. You won’t find advice or philosophical ramblings here, just some useful stuff I’m collecting during our wonderful journey in this beautiful city.
20. Mother in the Making… Naturally
A mother of two, a wife of one and a stuart of a million dreams. I love to sing, I love to write, I love to read and I love to dance. I love to run, I love to travel, I love to learn history and I love to ride… Bicycles, horses and fast cars. This is mere touching at what the world has to offer… Isn’t life a joy ride… but nothing compares to the great honor and responsibility of caring for a child. This is my journey to becoming a mother, day by day, in the most possible natural way that I can manage at any given stage. Being a mother is almost like trying to be more and more like Jesus… its something you are striving for daily but you just never arrive! Every milestone in a child’s life is a new road on the existing journey of becoming a mother… Come join me on my journey of raising a family in the most natural possible way that you can manage at the given time in your life… it’s the time of our lives!
21. Juggling Mom
Welcome to the Juggling Mom blog, the wonderful, crazy chaos that encompasses motherhood for me. The full time juggling act of trying to raise two under 4′s well.
The place where I believe that doing ‘real’ (in all it’s glorious messiness) is the new ‘perfect’.
Writing is something that energizes me, and I started my blogging journey when my youngest, our daughter was born. This is my space where I share about the things that I am passionate about as well as the thoughts that I ponder about. I do a lot of pondering and a lot of laughing. The laughing is mostly at my own expense and it’s my number one tool in surviving life in general! So I guess this blog is part emotional, part humorous outlet for me.
I live in a house with my husband Clint and our two sweet boys. Jesse is four years old and Jack is just over two. I am a busy, happy gal.
While I try to sneak in some quiet time, it is rarely quiet for long. As my leg is being pulled by a boy with chubby cheeks or while I am being ambushed by his big brother pleading with me to take him on a bike ride around the block, I often find myself longing for just a few more precious minutes. It’s a silly thing to do really – in the end, loving them fills my heart more than any project could.

23. My Gifts From Above
I am a recent stay (and work) @ home mom. My oldest has special needs (lack of oxygen at birth) and my other lil man is a year younger (born 6 weeks prem and 3 days before his oldest brother’s 1st birthday). 2015 has seen both the boys starting school which has been a major adjustment (mostly for mom #sadface).
I love to try new things and share them on the blog, from new products to recipes and crafts (#pinterestobsessed).

26. East Coast Life
I have just moved to the coastal town of Ballito and my blog now chronicles life in Ballito. There will be posts for people wanting to make the move to the coast and lots of posts about the fun things we as a family do. Restaurant and travel reviews on as regular a basis as our budget affords.
27. Because I Can
Humour, Wine and Chocolate… These are the things we need to make it out alive.
Give me all three and I will battle dragons, and win. And I will do it wearing a TUTU and TIARA!
Because at the end of it all, when people look at your headstone – It is the dash that is important … Not when we started or when we end. It is the dash inbetween.

28. Pitch Her Perfect SA
Life can be so depressing when you always look at yourself and say “If I could only fix this, I will be 100% happy”. I’ve been doing this for ages, always questioning things that make me who I am and wondering if I’ll ever be pretty enough, clever enough, rich enough, charming enough, strong enough. But enough is enough.
We can’t all be a size 6 and our hair may not look as glam as the Kardashians’s. Somewhere inside my head I found a space that knows all my best and worst traits and now I want to work with that.
This lifestyle blog is here for everyone who wants to stop stalling and start brawling against the negativity, embrace this one life and all the itches that come with it. I want to have a little fun and you can join in, engage!
If we don’t love ourselves, why should anyone else?
God has blessed us with an amazing life full of lessons, people and stuff to keep us happy and equipped for the day so why complain?
Use your time wisely, take life by the spanks and show it what your mother gave ya. Make this life Pitch Her Perfect!
29. Live Love Laugh
All about being a happily married mommy to two girlies, loving vino and chocolate, finding inspiration in beautiful quotes, doing arts and crafts, and my forever weight loss journey!
30. My Friend Thinks I’m Supermom
Honest ramblings about my life. Blogging is after all cheaper than therapy! This blog is about me taking life by the horns and dealing with it. I love all things local: food, fashion, fun and life. Reviews and Giveaways too.
31. Tyranny of Pink
Tyranny of Pink is about following your heart. It’s about transition and change and the times we feel so lost as we move from one period in our lives to the next. I want to inspire people to live their best lives while writing about my journey finding mine.
I believe that loving life is completely possible if we just make the decision to follow our true calling. I believe we should all do things in our own original way and that we should always follow our hearts. Sometimes we have to close our eyes and jump without knowing where we will end up.
Tyranny of Pink is a space to be unapologetically me and to encourage you to be you because in the end, all we really have is who we are and the only way to really experience life is to be the best possible version of yourself that you can be.

34.Date Nights
Having been married for nearly 9 years with 2 kids in tow, I know how hard it is to keep the romance alive in a relationship. Although I like to think I have a solid marriage and a really wonderful husband, with the pressures and stress of our daily lives as parents, I can see how easy it is to become like ‘ships passing in the night’. If we don’t put in continuous effort to keep that flame burning, it can easily fizzle out. One way of keeping the love alive is by making the time to connect with each other.
Date Nights is about remembering and helping you to connect with your loved one. About having the best relationship you can have. Not when the kids are older or you’ve reached a certain point in your career…right now! At Date Nights I will bring you ideas, great deals, inspiration and more to help you with your journey. And as I embark on this journey with you, I will also share my thoughts and feelings as I commit to going on date nights once a week.
