Email Your Guide

Like all the Guides at About.com, I'm a real person. You can email me at babyparenting.guide@about.com.

When you email me, you will get an auto-response email with some information about the site that you may find helpful. Consider this an acknowledgement that I have received your email and will be answering as soon as I am able.

If you are an AOL user, please set your email controls to accept mail from me if you would like a response.

Post to the Forum

I check the Forums regularly. Post your questions or comments and you'll get input from a variety of voices. The best support for parents comes from other parents, so feel free to offer your opinion or advice whenever you can. The Baby Parenting community is very active, but don't feel intimidated if you click into an existing conversation and feel a bit lost. Everyone there is friendly and welcoming. Introduce yourself and jump right in.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q. How can I find information about a specific topic?

A. I can help you find information about specific topics, however, due to the volume of mail I receive you may be waiting for a bit. I have tried to arrange the topics of the site so that information is easy to find, but it's always a good idea to try and use our search tool (enter in the most likely keywords related to your topic) before you email me. If that fails or if you are not in a rush for the information, drop me a line and let me know and I will answer you as soon as I can.

Q. I have or know of a website that relates to parenting babies and toddlers. How can I get you to link to a site?

A. If you own a site or know of a site that would benefit other parents, please send me the URL with a little bit of information about the site. It's also a big help if you let me know where you think it would fit best (which category). I will review the link, but cannot promise that it will be included.

Q. I heard you were starting a baby and toddler picture gallery. How can my photo be included?

A. You're right! The Parenting & Family sites here at About.com are host to some great galleries --

Pregnant Bellies

Ultrasounds

Newborns

Multiples

I look forward to continuing the tradition and seeing those great shots of your little ones, and friends and family will as well. Before you send any photos my way, be sure to follow these instructions.

Q. I have written an informative article on a topic relevant to baby and toddler parenting. Is there any way I can get it published here?

A. Sure. I'd love to review your article. Here's how to submit it.
