Meet  Simona!

Meet Simona!

If you have been thinking about renovating your kitchen, redesigning a kid’s bedroom, or even just need that missing piece in the living room you never furnished, Simona Levin is a mom not to miss. Simona is a mom of three in Westport, who loves nothing more than Friday night beach sunsets followed by ice cream at Saugatuck Sweets. She has managed to get her kids to eat fish by convincing them it’s “chicken-fish” and swears by Biologique Recherche Toner. What some may not know is Simona is 100% Russian, and went to the high school where the movie “FAME” was filmed! After years doing fashion and beauty PR, she decided to channel her creative energy and passion for design into her own entrepreneurial venture post-kids, and founded Winding Lane Design, where she is dedicated to keeping each project it’s own and thinking outside the box. Simona is creative, kind and authentic, a winning combination.

Melissa of "Melissa & Doug" shares how "play" and the role of free time has evolved in this generation

Melissa & Doug recently partnered with Gallup to conduct a study on how different parents view “play” and “free time” for their kids, and realized that so many of us engage in what is often called “directive- protective parenting” versus letting our kids use their imagination to spark their own creativity and play. This is not only fascinating, but incredibly relevant, so thanks to Melissa for letting us share this!

Meet another Jennifer!

Meet another Jennifer!

If you have ever driven down the Post Rd and wondered about that New Beauty & Wellness place, It is worth popping in. There you will find a beautiful spa that quickly takes you outside of your day to day life, and transports you somewhere Zen. There you will also find Jennifer, a truly special esthetician who is kind, authentic, funny, and loves what she does. When she is with her two little ones, she loves camping, beach nights, and pizza at Colony Grill. She is not afraid to tell her kids that something is spicy (when it’s not!) as a simple ploy to keep them disinterested, and in a next life would maybe be a female contractor. If you meet Jennifer, you immediately want to do whatever she’s doing to her skin; stop by the spa sometime…we’re pretty sure you won’t regret It!

Meet Sara!

Meet Sara!

If authenticity, passion, and humor are three qualities you value in a person – and friend – Sara Deren is a superstar not to be missed. In addition to being a Westport mom of 3, owner of two sleep-away camps in Maine, Manitou (for boys) and Camp Somerset (for girls), Sara runs Experience Camps, an incredible non-profit which provides a FREE sleep-away camp experience to children who have lost a parent or sibling. In her spare time, she loves bike rides at Sherwood Island, donuts, and swears by the Hair Genies Peppermint hair spray! After being laid off from her job in Finance 9 months pregnant with her first, life gave her the chance to find the “superpower” she believes everyone has and often just needs to find, and led her down the path where she is today.
