Almost 3. 🥹

This little girl is turning THREE very soon, and I honestly don't know where the time went.

It feels like yesterday I was holding this tiny little newborn in my arms, taking these photos and wondering who she would grow up to be.

And now… she has opinions about everything, a personality bigger than her little body, and somehow that tiny baby from these photos is almost three. 😭

The sweetest part?
These newborn photos are still out there.
Babies R Us South Africa is currently using Emma-Rose’s newborn shoot in their promotions, which makes looking back at these photos feel even more special.

From this tiny little baby…
to the beautiful, funny, cheeky little girl she is today.

How is my baby almost THREE?! 🥹💗

🚨 SMALL BUSINESSES, THIS ONE IS FOR YOU!

I’ve officially launched the Mzansi Mama Online Directory - a place where South African moms can discover products, services and businesses they can trust.

Because let’s be honest… moms are ALWAYS asking:

“Where can I find this?”
“Has anyone tried them?”
“Who do you recommend?”
“Where can I buy this?”

Now, your business can be part of those conversations. ❤️🇿🇦

The Mzansi Mama community has grown to 19,000+ South African moms, and I want to use that community to help more amazing local businesses get discovered.

✨ WHAT YOUR LISTING CAN OFFER:

• Your business featured in the Mzansi Mama Online Directory
• Exposure across Mzansi Mama social media platforms
• Opportunities to be recommended to the community
• Exposure in relevant South African Facebook groups
• Visibility on the Mzansi Mama website
• Opportunities for your products or services to be featured
• The chance to connect with moms who are actively looking for recommendations

Whether you're a small business, online store, service provider, established brand or someone offering products South African moms need - I want to help moms find YOU.

And there are flexible options to suit your business.

This isn't just about putting your business name on a webpage.

It's about getting discovered, getting recommended and getting in front of South African moms.

Ready to put your business in front of the Mzansi Mama community?

🎁 BLESS A MZANSI MAMA PROJECT – OCTOBER MAMA 🎁

I’m doing things a little differently from now on… ❤️

There will be NO forms to fill in for the Bless a Mzansi Mama Project. I want to make this simpler, more personal and easier for everyone.

For October, one Mzansi Mama will be blessed with a R750 grocery voucher.❤️

And this time, you can nominate a mama OR nominate yourself in the comments below.

Tell me who you think deserves this blessing and why — or, if you’re a mama who could really use a little help with the grocery bill this month, you can put your own name forward too. There is absolutely no shame in that. ❤️

To be considered:
❤️ Nominate a mama or yourself in the comments
❤️ Share this post
❤️ Make sure you follow the Mzansi Mama page

I’ll be reading through the nominations and choosing our October Mama. 🇿🇦

We all know how expensive groceries are, and sometimes R750 can make a real difference - a little breathing room, a fuller trolley and a reminder that someone cares.

So tag a mama. Tell her story. Nominate yourself if you need the help.

Let’s bless another Mzansi Mama. ❤️

October Mama nominations are officially
OPEN! 🇿🇦

We have a WINNER! 🥳🎁

A huge congratulations to Samantha Oberholzer, who has won the R500 Takealot voucher in our Mzansi Mama competition! ❤️

Thank you to everyone who entered, liked, commented, tagged your fellow Mzansi Mamas and shared the competition. 🇿🇦
I absolutely loved seeing all the mama love in the comments! 🥹❤️

Samantha, this R500 Takealot voucher is all yours! 🎁🛍️

Enjoy your little spoil, Mama - and keep an eye on the Mzansi Mama page because there’s always more fun, giveaways and mama magic coming your way! ✨

Rebecca, our September Mama, sent me this beautiful photo of the groceries she bought with the grocery voucher she was blessed with through Mzansi Mama. ❤️

Every month, one Mzansi Mama is selected to receive a grocery voucher. There’s no competition, no prize, no “winning” - just one mama being blessed by this community.

We all know how incredibly expensive groceries have become, and I know that a grocery voucher like this can take even just a little bit of pressure off a mama and her family.

Seeing Rebecca’s groceries and knowing that our community was able to make a small difference in her month honestly means so much to me. 🥹❤️

This is what Bless a Mzansi Mama is all about — showing up for one another, sharing what we can, and reminding a mama that she is not alone.

One mama. One blessing. Every month. ❤️🇿🇦

🌸 HELLO SPRING! 🌸

A new season is here, and I’m hoping it brings a little more sunshine, a little more joy and plenty of beautiful moments for our Mzansi Mama families.

Spring always reminds me that there is something special about new beginnings - growing, blooming, starting again and finding the little things that make us smile.
And what better way to welcome spring than with these two little faces who bring me so much joy. ❤️

Here’s to a season filled with love, laughter, fresh starts and making memories with our little ones.

In case you missed my interview with Lizel - Radio 33 Presenter 🎙️

Thank you so much to Radio 33 for having me and for taking the time to chat about Mzansi Mama, this incredible mom community, and how it has grown.

It’s always so special getting the opportunity to share the heart behind Mzansi Mama and the amazing mamas who make this community what it is. ❤️

I’m usually a last-minute.com mom 😂 so I’m actually VERY proud of myself for getting these ready a little in advance!

I’m really excited to get back into some sort of normality this week. The last few weeks have felt a little all over the show, with just SO much going on, so having something fun to look forward to has been exactly what I needed.

🌸 I picked up spring shirts for Jack and Emma from Pick n Pay Clothing for just R39,99 each — such a bargain! I also found the cutest little spring decorations on Takealot, and they were so affordable. Some of the butterfly and little bird packs were around R30 a pack!

Of course, Jack and Emma had to get involved and had SO much fun helping me stick on all the flowers, butterflies and little decorations. It definitely turned into a little family crafting session. 🦋🌸

And now we’re ready for the Spring Walk this week! 🌼

So tell me… are you a last-minute.com mom like me, or are you the mom who has everything planned and ready days in advance? 😂👇
