CurrentMom is an incubator for emerging mom-focused technologies and women entrepreneurs. At CurrentMom.com, moms can share wisdom and find community, support, energy, inspiration and new ideas. Created by Katherine Reynolds Lewis and Tanya Bunich, CurrentMom is aimed at mothers balancing a business with family, but we welcome all moms as well as non-mothers who are interested in work-life balance and entrepreneurship.

Our mission is to support, inspire and connect entrepreneurial mothers with each other and potential vendors and customers, while retaining editorial integrity and valuing creative work. Our editorial decisions are and will remain separate from any advertising partnerships or customer relationships.
