Katherine Scoleri, creator of SafeMama.com

Hi! My name is Kathy. I am a mother of two boys aged 5 and 2.  I am a web designer and the co-owner of  Moxie Design Studios, and I co-authored a book about blogging called  The IT Girls’ Guide to Blogging with Moxie (Wiley Publishing). In 2007, I found it to be completely overwhelming spending time researching safety issues for my first child. I spent hours looking up Bisphenol-A, reading about the hormone mimicking chemicals called phthalates in PVC, or looking for the latest toy recalls. I had an “a-ha” moment and thought that I must not be the only parent scouring the Internet for information about things that affect our children. I started SafeMama™ to keep it all in one place.

If I can save one mother or father an hour of valuable time and provide them a space to get informed, figure out what to buy, or not to buy, without having to go from site to site to site looking for answers… then I’ll sleep better tonight. Or at least as well as an 2 year old and a 5 year old will allow.

What This Site is For:
SafeMama™ should serve all parents as a resource to find information to help them protect their kids. With the onslaught of toy problems, lead paint, toxic chemicals and other health concerns popping up in the news, I wanted to create a site where parents can go to find what they need to make educated and informed decisions.

This site isn’t to take the place of official information or the advice given by medical doctors. It should be used as a resource, and a time saver to help you as a parent make decisions that affect your kids and to find fun and healthful tips on living a healthy safe life.
