KwaZulu-Natal

1. Sea Ess Em Jay

Adventures in my monologues, that’s what you’ll find here.
Parenting
Life Musings
Technology
Rants!

Facebook  Twitter

2, 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.

Facebook Twitter Pinterest

 

3. Diary of a Durban Doula

Journey with me as I make a career change towards making a difference in the lives of women and their families here in Durban, South Africa.

Facebook Pinterest

 

4. Bright Side of Life

I am raising an autistic son. He is pre verbal and also academically challenged. My blog is about our life and a record of my son’s progress.

Twitter Pinterest Instagram

5. Baby Babble

Rants, rambles and reviews about having a bun in the oven…

Facebook

6. Ellie Love

My name is Caley Jade Rosenberg and I’m a 29 year old from Durban, South Africa.
I am a wife to the most amazing man in the world, MC and a mom to my little angel princesses, SJ (Sophie Jade) and EN (Ellie Nicole). We live in a small city off the East Coast of South Africa where the sun is always shining and the beach is so inviting.

I am a born and bred Durban girl – spending my school years here, my university days studying a BA in English and Communications, and then a Post Grad degree in Teaching and now being a stay-at-home mom (for now!)

I love to blog about my family and lifestyle – from marriage, parenting, teaching and our home to recipes, reviews, travel and new products.

Facebook Twitter Pinterest Instagram

 

7. Just Four More Minutes

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.

What will you find on ‘ JUST FOUR MORE MINUTES ‘ ?

x DIY Projects
x Home Decor
x Recipes: My own & others

Grab a cup of coffee & enjoy!

8. 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.

Facebook Twitter Pinterest Instagram

9. Coffee at Claire’s

An atypical parenting blog. We parent. We drink wine. And we do those things at the same time.

I am not your cup of comfortable tea. I shoot from the hip. I say it straight. It gets me into trouble, but it also got me this far.

My mother always told me to watch my mouth. And that having a blog and a twitter account is probably not the wisest idea considering I do in fact have a big mouth.

But I know who I am and it is time the rest of you know too. My name will be printed on the spine of many books.

I do not follow the herd. I stand alone. I am fiercely independent. I am a unique person in a world of simple copycats. If you need an antidote for generic – I am it. (Ok so I adapted this off my favourite restaurant menu, but big ups to OMB!)

I am…

A parent. A writer. A friend.

Facebook Twitter

10. Simply Balanced Beginnings

My blog, Simply Balanced Beginnings, is an online parenting resource for thinking parents. I aim to inform parents on the choices presented to them during pregnancy and parenting, and to empower them to then make informed decisions based on the knowledge they have.

I practice and support breastfeeding, attachment parenting, baby led weaning, baby wearing, and loving a conscious eco friendly life. My blog therefore covers all of these topics and aims to keep parents informed and empowered on all topics pregnancy, birth, and parenting related.

Facebook Twitter

11. Our Life Treasure

I, Romona gifted this little space on the net to my husband, Nivesh and daughter, Kiara. My husband’s job requires him to travel and this birth our blog where we document family adventures, showcasing the balance between family and business or work, campaigning charities we admire and just remembering how truly blessed we are. It is a communication tool that will inspire and develop our family and our online family for generations to come.

Twitter Pinterest Instagram Facebook

12. Clever Bird Banter

I’m Andrea – graphic designer, blogger, DIYer, wine-drinker, wife and mom. My blog is about ‘all sorts of stuff’ – mostly things that I find interesting, useful or inspiring. I enjoy discovering new places, foods, products and ideas and you’ll often catch me snapping away on my iPhone or with my awesome Nikon DSLR. I’m a Mac.

Facebook Twitter Instagram Pinterest

13. Mom Dezigns
I am a 24 year-old graphic designer at a large church in a large city. I volunteer part-time, play with a little art and design in my spare time. I’m a mother of two fur kitties who I love, cuddle and spoil. I am also expecting my first bundle of human joy in January 2016.

I have my own freelance design business – facebook.com/MDesignz, and am partner in a Non-Profit foundation called ‘Hope through Giving’ – facebook.com/InNeedMoms2B. I believe we can all make a change wherever we are with whatever we have.

Other than the above, you’ll find out more about me in my blogs. I’m deeply ambiverted, so if you need to find out more, you’ll need to ask.

14. A little bit of Me

I ramble about every day life, my frustrations and highs as a fraternal boy-girl twin mommy, as well as being a mommy to a very independent 6 year old! I’m a wife who is at her husband’s throat pretty much every day, and I say it like it is. I write about my highs and lows, happy’s and sad’s and life in between.
