On a trip to New York with her seven-month-old son, Julian, Lee picked up a guidebook that was a big help in navigating the city with a child. After doing a little research, she decided that Charleston could use a similar guidebook to help tourists and new mothers discover all that Charleston has to offer. She enlisted Tricia, Charleston mother of two, to help her get this project off the ground. Together they published the first issue of Moms in the Know in March 2004. The goal of Moms in the Know is to provide a fun, informative, local resource for moms in Charleston: new moms, moms new to the city, or any family looking for family-friendly businesses and services.
“Being a Mom is exciting, challenging, and sometimes a little overwhelming. We hope Moms in the Know helps you negotiate the difficult parts more easily and leads you to new experiences you might have missed otherwise.”
