moms in Baton Rouge

As Baton Rouge moms, we know what it takes to keep a household running, and we understand that motherhood is hard. There’s always a ton to do and never enough time to get everything done! Sometimes us moms need a quick fix or advice from other moms on how to save time. Just like you, Red Stick Mom writers are always open to a more efficient way to handle things and willingly share their best mom hacks, tips and tricks when they find them.

Here at Red Stick Mom, we offer dozens of ideas from diverse perspectives in our mom hacks, tips and tricks category. From taking road trips from Baton Rouge to meatless meals to natural cold remedies, we’ve written about it. 

Curious how to freshen up your skin routine? We suggest you try slugging. Looking for a faster way to fix your hair? Try the lazy mom’s guide to hair. Wondering if there’s a better way to cook bacon? Try this mom hack for cooking the best bacon ever and thank us later. What’s motherhood without perfecting your bacon, are we right? That’s the kind of content our Mom hacks, tips and tricks section highlights. 

That said, not all of Red Stick Mom’s mom hacks, tips and tricks are about fixing food or mom’s self care. Maybe you are looking for a better way to store your family’s precious photo memories. Have you ever wondered what to do with the cupcakes that your kids inevitably didn’t finish? You haven’t really lived until you’ve tried “recycle cake.” We even get intimate with other topics like why every mom should try period panties and the value of a nursing cart when there’s a newborn in your home.

Our writing team of 25+ local Baton Rouge moms really work hard to ensure that local parents benefit from our tried and true mom hacks, tips and tricks. Our goal is to make living in Baton Rouge with kids – and motherhood overall – easier and more fun, and we’re here to share what we know!

We are always looking for fun shows that we will both enjoy that aren’t “kid shows.” There are a few shows we are watching currently or just finished that I think are the perfect in between shows. Gilmore Girls. Streaming on Netflix. As a mom born in the 80s, I’m no stranger to Gilmore Girls and watching it with my daughter has grown my love for this show! If you haven’t watched Gilmore Girls yet, it’s a witty show about a small town. You will laugh and maybe shed a few tears as you watch the characters learn, grow and...

It’s Teacher Appreciation Time! It’s time for the Teacher Appreciation celebration! It’s time to show our gratitude for all that they’ve done for children this school year (or part of the year for my son Jacob). These teachers have been working hard this entire year to show their support for our children’s scholastic activities. It’s time to give them flowers. Remember, the littles are watching. What they feel matters to you, matters to them (at least before middle school).  1.)

Some organizations have special days planned where each day is dedicated to a special way to thank the teachers....
