Divalysscious Moms - I love this program as well. I have attended many of their events (which are normally free or discounted). They offer Fabulous events for expecting, new moms, and families in NYC
Foundation of Divalysscious Moms as described on their site:
Founded by New York City mom Lyss Stern,Divalysscious Moms was born to bridge the gap between a glam, pre-baby lifestyle and a post-baby life where, well, let’s just say there are more midnight feedings than midnight soirées.
Rather than toss aside her beloved stilettos for strollers, Lyss embraced them both and created a company that keeps the party going (except at nap time).
DivaMoms are fun, fabulous and one-of-a-kind — from trendsetter and career woman to stay-at-home and think-outside-the-juice-box mom. At the Divalysscious Moms events, they get together to experience sensational events, meet new friends, or catch up with old ones – all with no stress!
