As the founder of The North County Moms and a descendant of the Naylor family of Manassas, Virginia, I’m sharing a glimpse of how members of my family have been celebrating Juneteenth for the past few years while discovering details of our ancestors’ lives.

Happy Juneteenth! ️The National Juneteenth Observance Foundation designed the Juneteenth Flag© to illustrate the story of what became a national holiday in 2021. We’re sharing more about the holiday to commemorate its significance.

The 4th of July is just around the corner. And this year it's going to be pretty special. Not only because a new book from the Celebrate the HoliDates® growing collection of holiday-themed books for kids was just released... because that is huge news! But more...

Dr. Breanne Reid of Great Smiles Pediatric Dentistry & Orthodontics knows how to treat her patients with kindness and care both in and out of the dental chair! Every month, Dr. Brea picks one lucky patient and their family to receive a thoughtfully curated basket of goodies. That’s 12 families every year! This month we’re sharing the contents of the 2026 baskets. Check these out!

We’ve got a summer reading list that author Zibby Owens would tell the moms at pick-up to add to their nightstands!

The North County Moms founder and author, María Felicia Kelley, appears on CBS 8 Mornings to discuss the launch of her new book, July Four: 7/4—the fourth title of the Celebrate the HoliDates® children’s book series—during the 250th anniversary of the USA.

From the 4th of July to Labor Day and every summer soiree in between, who doesn’t love matching with their mini?

This year, we’re aiming for Sane Girl Summer, aka Manageable for Moms Summer aka Summer So Everyone Has Fun (Including Mom).
