The Baby Kottage

Contestant's Case to Win

This is based on the number of votes received.
The Baby Kottage (TBK) is a Parenting Site that is truly for moms and dads. We offer friendship and support for our members whether they are parents or trying to become parents. Unlike many parenting and baby sites, TBK is for adults only, so there's no need to feel unable to speak your mind because children may be members of the site. We keep our forums private for the protection of our members. TBK has a homey-type feel that is a revolutionary concept which has not been seen at any other parenting site. This "cottage" setting is what keeps The Baby Kottage set apart from the competition.

My name is Rosemary King I am a stay at home mom, married to Wayne, a Naval Officer. We have 6 children and I home school our eldest 3. Being apart of several parenting sites and even being a moderator of one, I knew that there could be something better for parents to go to. My husband and I came up with the idea of starting a new parenting site in March of 2008. I am the Administrator of our forums and personally place each article and all updates on the site. Many of our competition are owned by corporations. These sites are impersonal at best and many of their owners are not involved or active in the community on their site. They are after a bottom line, money. At TBK there is no bottom line. Though we have ways to earn money, our site is not over-run by advertisements or annoying pop-ups. We cater to both mothers and fathers. I love chatting with our members, and making new friends. Many of our members also provide articles for our site to be published for others to read. We are also looking forward to the future. Having already slated a place on YouTube and Blog Talk Radio, we will lead the way in how parenting sites offer advice and tips for raising children, and creating a happy home. In short, TBK is a place of solace and friendship.
