Mission:

Apple Moms HV, LLC wants to make local parents aware of all the resources the Hudson Valley has to offer.  We found that so many local events happen without families knowing.   We also like to bring brand and products awareness to families so they have real mom experience and opinions on toys, clothing, shoes and gadgets.  Apple Moms HV, LLC also hosts Moms Night Out events that travel to the different counties for a fun night of food, drinks, presentations, vendors and raffles.  Our goal is to bring connect real moms with real brands, companies and fellow local moms.

Hi!  For all our new followers (welcome!)  I will share a little about me.  I am from Putnam County since First Grade (by way of CA & NJ but so young I remember little). A brief “vacation” for the Bronx and Norfolk were taken from Putnam before resettling back here with my husband in 2006.  I have two kids Jack(12) and Charlotte(11), who keep me on my toes and entertained.  We are always on the go, the mountains, the tracks, the backyard or near water  I am a part-time as a special educator for children 5 and under and run a 2s Crew program, I love teaching the littles.  If I am not attached to my iPhone I can usually be found with a Venti Vanilla Chai from Starbucks.  I want to share fun things families can do together in the Hudson Valley and beyond, and able to do that will the help of the following “mom-experts”!!

Putnam- Jenn

Hi! I am Jenn, a Corporate Girl turned Stay-At-Home-Mom to my two daughters Chloe who is 4 and Emma just turned 1.  I also have a Step-son who is 20, that I have helped raised since he was 7.  I was born and raised here in Putnam County, growing up in Brewster and then moving to Carmel when I met my husband.  Growing up I couldn’t wait to move away, but now I can’t imagine my girls not having everything I did.  I love being able to take my girls to Rockefeller Center or Tilly Foster Farm on any given day.  I look forward to bringing the Apple Moms followers exciting and fun family events, honest product reviews, and sharing my life for your entertainment!

 

Westchester- Casey:

Apple Mom Casey

Hi!  I’m Casey and a lower Westchester County transplant.  I grew up in Binghamton, fell in love 16 years ago and moved to hubby’s home town in 2005.  In 2010, the love of our lives Chloe arrived and I have been a stay-at-home mom ever since.  Any given day you can find us exploring our surrounding community, cooking and baking up a storm in the kitchen or just running errands.  I am an avid bargain hunter and can’t pass up a good deal.  My phone is also nearby and I am obsessed with Bravo.  I hope you will join me as I explore the Hudson Valley.  After 10 years down here, there is so much more to discover!
