about MAMA POE'S POSTS
This blog started in a way I never expected.
During my twin pregnancy, I was struggling with antenatal depression. After one appointment with my maternal-fetal medicine doctor, she suggested I start journaling to help work through it. At the time, I wasn't trying to build a website or become a blogger—I just needed somewhere to put my thoughts.
After my twins were born, I stepped away for a while as I worked through postpartum depression. When I came back during my pregnancy with my third son, this little journal had become something more. I realized I wanted to create the blog I wish I'd found when I was struggling and at my lowest.
I know what it's like to spend hours Googling at 2 a.m., hoping someone out there has the answer you're looking for. Too often I found advice that felt completely out of touch with real life, or articles that sounded like they had never actually been lived... or even written by a real person. I wanted to create something different.
Mama Poe's Posts is where I share practical parenting advice, realistic baby and toddler tips, DIY projects, home organization, honest product recommendations, and the everyday moments that make family life both beautiful and chaotic. Nothing here is curated for social media or meant to make you feel like you're falling behind. If something works for our family, I'll tell you. If it doesn't, I'll tell you that too.
One thing you'll probably notice is that I edit my posts... a lot. I'm constantly thinking, "Oh, I should go back and add that. That might help someone else." That's because I document life while I'm living it. And real life doesn't stop after I hit publish, so neither does this blog. As my family grows and I learn new things, these posts grow with us. And I'm passionate about helping you as your family grows, too.
At the end of the day, we're just a middle-class family with two working parents, three busy boys, and a 1908 house that's always somewhere in the middle of another project. Real life is exactly what you'll find here.
If one post helps you get a little more sleep, makes your home work a little better, or simply reminds you that you're not the only one figuring this whole parenting thing out as you go, then Mama Poe's Posts has done exactly what I hoped it would.
I'm so happy you found my little corner of the internet.

the mom behind Mama Poe's Posts
Hi, I'm Gianna!
I'm a former teacher turned educational diagnostician, wife to Steven, and mom to three little boys, including a set of twins who keep life VERY interesting.
I have a master's degree in special education, and helping people has always been my favorite part of what I do. This blog became the creative outlet I didn't realize I was missing after leaving the classroom.
While everyone else seems to be making reels, I found my home behind a keyboard instead. I've always expressed myself better through writing than talking into a camera, so instead of learning dance trends, I somehow ended up teaching myself SEO, marketing, and website design. So, it's just me here! No graphic designers, no editors. Just a girl with a lot to say and a passion to get it out there to people who need it the most.
When I'm not writing, you'll usually find me chasing after my boys, working on another home project, rearranging a room for the tenth time, or mentally thinking of ways to make my life (and yours) easier.
This has never been about becoming an influencer or making a fortune. Nobody starts a blog in 2026 expecting to get rich. It's always been a passion project, and I'm incredibly grateful for every person who reads, shares, comments, or supports my work because it allows me to keep creating.
More than anything, I hope this little corner of the internet makes you feel seen, supported, and a little less alone.
Let's thrive in chaos together!
