On this episode of Parenting in Queens, we hear from Ellen, a pediatric nurse at NYU and Lo, whose background is in business and technology. Together, they are raising their daughter Ev and working on their family business, Metaroots. They share about growing up with inspiring mothers and how it impacts not only how they conduct their business, but also how they are building their home life. They have an integrative approach to balancing their family and work time, bringing their daughter along on business errands and exposing her to their craft of growing and selling plants. We get into a discussion about their journey through IVF and the rollercoaster of emotions it entails, and talk about having a midwife, the birth process and adjusting to those first months of sleep deprivation. Community and having a support system are really important to them, and they share about enjoying their neighborhood and making friends. They also talk about their challenges, their success with potty training and instilling good eating habits. Tune in for all of this and a lot more!
