Meet the Extremely Good Parenting Team

It takes d team of people to make the Extremely Good Parenting online parenting and family magazine function. In fact, it takes a lot of energy, effort, and hours to keep things running smoothly.

We want to make sure if you have a question, it gets answered. If you have a, it gets fulfilled. And if you need community, that you know where to turn. 

But I, Kara, can’t do it all. it would consume all of my time and energy… and I don’t have the emotional or physical bandwidth for that. So I have brought on several people that I trust to make sure that your family is served to the fullest extent and so I can stop dropping the ball so often.

Without further ado, let’s get to some introductions!
