About Me

My Mission!

Hi, I’m Nadia and I want to help Moms navigate motherhood by sharing my knowledge and experience as a Work From Home Mom. 

As a work-from-home mom, my desire is to show you that you are not alone. You will have many ups and downs as a mother, whether you are working from home or work outside the home.

I have had moments where I’m talking to a client and that is the exact moment, my firstborn 2-year-old daughter is on a mission to make her hair shiny with vaseline! It happens to the best of us and I know I am not the first mom that moments like these have happened and neither will you be. 

It is a blessing to work from home while raising kids and it can also be stressful if you can’t get anything done. I have gained a lot of experience over the past 6 years working while raising children. On that note, my mission is to share my knowledge, resources, and personal experiences on the following topics: 

  • Pregnancy and Postpartum
  • Product Reviews and  Gear Guides 
  • Raising Strong Daughters 
  • Flexible Work From Home Careers
  • Finance and Budgeting
  • Printables (who doesn’t love printables!) 
  • Spreadsheets (I am obsessed with spreadsheets) 
  • Graphic and Website Design
  • Running and Managing a Business
  • Productivity Tools 
  • Delicious Recipes Inspired by Indian, Afghan, American, and Mexican Cuisines!

My Background 

I was born in Los Angeles, CA to an Indian mother and Pakistani father in the USA. I was raised in a faraway land of Los Angeles beneath the starry desert skies with two sisters(I’m the oldest!). I currently live in the Los Angeles Metro Area with my husband of 8 years, and 2 beautiful strong daughters ages 6 years and 3 years old. We are a mixed cultural family with roots in Afghanistan, India, and Pakistan. 

Since my firstborn in 2014, I have started working from home and am gracious for the opportunity to work more flexibly. This allowed me to spend more time with my children and beat the commute! 

I started this mom blog in 2018 with a mission to to help you balance a career and motherhood by sharing my knowledge and experiences. I hope you will enjoy your time on my little piece on the internet.
