NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Parents.com has long made it a priority to answer questions from moms and dads as well as address their concerns, advocate their causes and celebrate the joys of parenthood. To that end, Parents.com has added ten original blog voices to further enrich the ongoing dialogue the brand has with their readers online. The new parenting blogs join reader favorite GoodyBlog, which is written by the Parents staff.
The parenting blogs can be found at www.parents.com/blog.
The Parents.com bloggers will offer readers their personal expertise and experiences; no parenting topic too big, too small or too personal. From newborns to toddlers and older kids, there will be tricks, advice and camaraderie for parents raising kids of all ages, sizes and personalities, including tips on work-life balance, special-needs children, single parenthood and more.
