Hi, I am Umaima, mother of 2 boys aged 8 years & 3 years. About 6 years ago I started this blog with the intention to pen down recipes that I have been developing for my child. Back then finding “doable”, “non-fancy” recipes for kids online was not easy. Since I was doing pretty well with my kitchen duties as a mom, I thought of sharing the experiences and journey with fellow moms. In the past 4 years, the blog and its content has grown manifolds. I have had some good opportunities as a food writer and a mommy reviewer. It has been a great learning experience all of which has been shared with my readers in various posts. Hope to continue doing some meaningful and good content creation which will be beneficial to all my blog readers. If you would like to reach me, email me at umaima@beingamommyblog.com alternatively, fill in the form below and I shall get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks, Umaima
