I founded my lifestyle blog Mom Knows It All in 2005. The title (and tagline “I Know EVERYTHING – just ask my hubby”) was chosen because many times when my husband and I had a conversation he would look at me and says “well of course, you know everything”. The blog has always about life, family, parenting, tech, travel and more.

I founded my food blog From Val’s Kitchen in 2007. There I share recipes, foods and cooking products that let you create a tasty meal without tons of time or special knowledge.

In 2020 I merged Mom Knows It All and From Val’s Kitchen into one site.

In 2022 I decided to separate the content and split the two sites once again, in order to ensure readers were finding what they were looking for.

The majority of my readers are located in the United States. Approximately 82% are women, with approximately two thirds of them being between the ages of 25-54. Top geographic locations reached include Illinois, Texas, California, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New Jersey. More than 60% of readers are reading the site on a mobile device.

I love working with products and brands that excite and inspire without being super complicated.

Interested in working with me?  

PR and marketing companies, publishers – If you have a product you’d like to promote on my site, I’d love to hear from you. Please send me your detailed mutually beneficial pitch. Here are just a few examples of ways that we can work together. Compensation varies due to the “ask”.

Travel

I love to travel. If you represent a hotel, resort, tourism board or other travel-related outlet please contact me to discuss ways to highlight your destination for my readers and followers that are planning their future travel destinations and activities.

Brand/Product Ambassador

I can offer ongoing coverage of your product or brand through a variety of avenues including a series of blog posts, social media mentions and conference attendance. Please contact me to discuss potential ambassadorships so the world can learn more about your product!

Dedicated Post

Do you have a product you’d like me to introduce to my readers? I love to try new products and share my thoughts and experiences with my readers. As a parent leading a busy lifestyle and working in and out of the home, I am naturally interested in time and energy saving products. My family loves to help with reviews, so we can review a wide breadth of products and ages. If you have a family friendly product you’d like an honest review for, please contact me. Some of the things we particularly enjoy reviewing include toys, educational products, video games, entertainment items such as movies, clothing, musical equipment, gadgets and computer products.

A product sample is required in order to do a review. After all, how could I review something I hadn’t personally tried. Review products and samples will not be returned. I will not give you an excellent review just because you sent me a free sample. What I will give you is an honest, objective opinion of your product. I try to include my own photos when possible. There is a minimum retail value of product that is required for a dedicated post.

Social Media Awareness

Interested in having your product featured on social media? Contact me to discuss having a social media blast mentioning you on social media channels such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest.

Contact Me

These are just a few of the ways we can collaborate together. In addition to the options mentioned, I would be happy to discuss custom collaborations. If you’d like to learn more or to discuss partnership opportunities, or to request a media kit with specific site details, please feel free to contact me at valmg2 AT gmail DOT com. I look forward to hearing from you!
