Mommies Helping Mommies, LLC joins First Lady Michelle Obama & "Let's Move.gov" for Colorado

Online, June 13, 2010 (Newswire.com) - DENVER, Colorado- Helping parents make healthy family choices is only one of the summer goals of Mommies Helping Mommies, LLC, (www.mommieshelpingmommies.net) and a nanny placement agency that is currently one of the fastest growing businesses in Colorado. When children are not at school during the summer, parents and caregivers continue to play a key role in making healthy choices for children because the earliest decisions regarding food and physical activity occur in the home. Michelle Obama supports the www.letsmove.gov campaign to help families make healthy living easier. With greater understanding and opportunities for good nutrition and physical activity, everyone can take simple steps so busy families can live healthier lives.

Heather Lowrance, owner of Mommies Helping Mommies, announced, "Parents are choosing more responsible options to care for their children. Many of our clients will ask for healthy solutions and this program certainly highlights the major guidelines for all of us to follow. Among the helpful tools and information our families and nannies prefer are: Continued progress on the consumer friendly front-of-package labeling; knowing how to calculate a Body Mass Index; and using teaching, and learning the MyPyramid.gov to follow Dietary Guidelines. Keeping children active and healthy are high priorities for our staff. You can't rely on that to happen, unless you have a responsible nanny that is accessible, affordable and dependable."

A popular choice for families is the Mommies Helping Mommies "Summer Nanny Program" which is designed for children of all ages while they are out of school. Nanny service includes more than 10 hours per week, and referral specialists will create a specific placement plan at no additional charge to fit each family's requirements. In addition, the Lifetime Membership best fits those families who are seeking the use of childcare services at least once per week. For a low, one time fee, families are able to work with experienced nannies and sitters at a much lower fee than a daily membership program. A "Lifetime Membership Program" also enables clients to have a much better chance of working with the same nanny for each of your requested dates. Information about the programs is available at http://www.mommieshelpingmommies.net.

"We want to make the world a better place where everyone can receive the level of support they need to enable them to be the parents and people they wish and know they can be," Lowrance continued, "By joining the www.letsmove.gov campaign, providing discounts to dance classes, music classes and activities only offered to clients of Mommies Helping Mommies and by many partnering companies; as well as contributing 5% of our gross income goes to local charities and families in need, we believe that we can make a difference in Colorado."

Released in February of this year, the 2009 Colorado Health Report Card released by the Colorado Health Foundation, documents that Colorado continues to fall behind in important areas affecting children's health. The overall grade for Healthy Children dropped from a C- in 2008 to a rating of D+ in 2009. Among the indicators for this life stage, the most dramatic drop was in childhood obesity where the state fell from third in the nation to twenty-third.
