Our Story
Who are we?
To put it simply, we are just like you. We began as a simple local moms’ group, and have grown to be a community of parents dedicated to our families, our homes, and — when we find the time — to ourselves. Main Line Parent is passionately run by a group of dedicated professionals, many of whom are area parents themselves. Meet the gang.
What do we offer?
Main Line Parent’s calling card is our dynamic nature, reaching out to our local community through a wide range of platforms. Our mix of social media, print, digital, and in-person projects allow us to both use the latest technology and bring people together in a traditional fashion. We have built a network of people — across five counties, all income levels, and every possible definition of what a family is — who support each other through one of the most difficult and rewarding experiences in life.
Social Media
Like us? People love us! Our dynamic Facebook community group is a place for stroller swapping, playdate organizing, and sleep-deprived discussions, while our business page keeps followers in the know. Our Twitter following includes a flock of social savvy parents and family-centric businesses. And we’re even flexing our creative muscles on Pinterest, discovering amazing crafts, recipes, and gadgets for the modern family.
Magazines and Guides
Main Line Parent publishes print magazines and guides, available via direct mail for our Subscribers and Supporting Members, and we get samples in the community to reach new families in the area through our network of Business Members. Full of local content illustrated with stunning photography, the book is printed on high quality matte stock to last and share with your friends, even our youngest readers. Prefer to read your news online? Main Line Parent has shared its full issues digitally via our website since the Spring 2012!

Events
We don’t just hide out behind our computer screens! Our Main Line Mingles encourage parents to get out and hang out, plus learn about one of our favorite community businesses. Our Main Line Early Education Fair helps young families start off the learning process smoothly by introducing them to the best schools and care centers the area has to offer. And our annual Mom’s Night Out for Mother’s Day event is a fun-filled evening of fashion, food, and shopping, all in the name of local charity.
