Babysitters: Who's in your club?

Who would want to leave their darling children for longer than 24 hours? Turns out, nearly 90% of the parents we surveyed would! However, the real dilemma for most parents is determining who to leave our little angels with... will it be Grandma and Grandpa? The college kid down the street? The teen from our church congregation? They all have their pros, with a few cons possibly sprinkled in. Narrow down your babysitter list as listeners share their worst babysitter experiences, and remember to give everyone a little bit more grace. After all, no one can love your kids as much as you do. 

What is A For Effort?

Hey, it’s us: Amanda and Megan. We’re just two average moms who love their kids so dang much we decided to start a podcast! This is not another mommy podcast, with experts informing you how you can be a better mom/wife/daughter/coworker/best friend in twenty-six sugar-coated steps. What WILL you find in this podcast? Validation? Yes. Laughter? Hopefully. Inspiring advice? Probably not.

Truthfully, no matter how many parenting books we read or conferences we attend, we still find ourselves raising our eyebrows and stifling laughs at our offspring.
