Our BackStory (prior to 2019)
MomsLA was founded in 2010 (and launched the website in 2011) by Yvonne Condes and Sarah Auerswald.
Yvonne Condes is a writer and editor and the founder of YvonneInLA.com, where she talks about food, travel and raising her kids in LA.
MomsLA started as a way to chronicle our lives as busy LA Moms, and, at the time, we had help from the best Mom Bloggers in SoCal, who contributed articles about everything from breastfeeding to traffic.
Over time, the mission of the site evolved and we began creating content that served a need for busy families: delivering ideas for Family Fun in bite-sized pieces. That’s where we are today.
MomsLA has been featured on CBSLA, NBCLA, ABC7LA, Spectrum News 1, and KPCC, and in stories in the New York Times, on CNN, NPR, USA Today, PBS SoCal, and Cosmopolitan Latina. We’ve been guests on The Brood podcast, and on KPCC’s Take Two.
The Hub called MomsLA a local Blog to follow. Flipkey by Trip Advisor chose MomsLA as one of its Top Los Angeles Blogs. MomsLA was also chosen as one of CBS Los Angeles’ favorite local blogs and one of Mom.com’s favorite mom blogs.
MomsLA was named one of the 5 Best Blogs about Los Angeles in 2021 by Spotted by Locals – and we’re thrilled!
Sarah has been a finalist in LA Weekly‘s Web Awards for Best Neighborhood Blog. Yvonne was named one of the 16 Coolest Power Moms in Los Angeles by Red Tricycle. We’ve spoken at conferences including BlogHer, We All Grow Latina Summit, and the PBS Annual Meeting.
