Love Where You Live.
Filled with yummy places to eat, unique places to shop, and cool neighbourhoods to walk, VancouverMom.ca is the urban mom’s window Vancouver. With a focus on moms, rather than baby or kids, we uncover local gems and urban finds. So whether it’s the new neighbourhood organic butcher, the funky restaurant that has a secret stash of crayons and colouring books, or the best place to get your kids’ haircut in the city, we’ve got something for you.
Part of the City Mom Now network, Vancouver Mom is published daily and owned by Crisp Media Inc. Please visit our Contact page to connect with us.

Contributors:
Michelle Carchrae is a freelance writer and homeschooling mom to two girls. With a serious love for Vancouver and an equally serious need to get out of the house with two young kids, Michelle searches out the best kid and parent friendly places to go. Michelle also writes about parenting at The Parent Vortex.
Erin Cooper is our West Side Contributor. She’s a professional mother of one who is currently seeking the holy grail of family / work balance. Her “Type A” personality leads her to believe that she’ll come up with the solution one day…soon. On the weekends she can be found strolling to and from one of the many parks and great beaches on the west side, shopping for the ingredients to an amazing meal (to be prepared by her culinarily-gifted husband), or rushing to a yoga class.
Lisa Corriveau is our East Side Contributor. She is also a mother of one, writer, stilt performer and part-time university student, and she sews baby and mama gear for anew.etsy.com. She loves Belgian beer, chocolate and nearly any kind of cheese. She lives car-free in East Van, with baby, husband, cat and a few bikes. You can also find her on her blog, The Sprog.
Alexis Hinde is our Downtown Contributor. She writes about her life as a mom at Wave the Stick, plays guitar badly but with great enthusiasm, and designs stylish clothes for cool little boys at Chill Monkeys. She’s an urban girl to the core, and lives with her husband and their three year old son in the heart of downtown Vancouver.
