President Bush has signed a bill banning lead and other harmful chemicals from children’s toys. This law will impose the world’s toughest lead standard regarding children’s toys. Hopefully the next step will be to eliminate BPA from plastics and asbestos from sandbox sand.

We are a group of colleagues, friends and working mothers who wanted to find a way to share our experiences as parents with others and to seek the advice of those who have encountered and successfully overcome some of the ordinary and not-so-ordinary challenges of working motherhood. Among ourselves we have 10 children: boys and girls, babies through school-agers, children who are adopted and not-adopted, have special needs and those who don’t, and each of whom is precious in their own right.
As professionals, our experiences range from child care to politics, writing to retail. In the interest of full disclosure, we all work for Bright Horizons, and some of us are beneficiaries of the company’s child care services. But this blog is meant to provide a community of support and discussion for all working mothers (fathers welcome too!), and you need no affiliation with Bright Horizons to be a part of the conversation.
We hope you enjoy and join the dialogue too.
