Who is a Savvy Auntie?
A
Savvy Auntie is one who understands that Aunt-hood, just like
parenthood, doesn’t come with an instruction manual, and seeks to
discover how to be the most Savvy Auntie she can be and inspire other
Aunties in the same way. She’s savvy in every other aspect of her life;
now she can be savvy about kids too.
Why Now?
With
an estimated 50% of American women not having children of their own, but kids still being front-and-center in their lives, SavvyAuntie.com provides the knowledge
and community these women crave to support their Savvy Auntie
lifestyle. And with the surplus of online resources for parents, it’s
time for a destination dedicated to the other half of the adult female
population who have less access to information about how to best love,
support and develop kids.
Who Can Join?
Anyone
over the age of 13 can join and all you need is a valid email address.
Once you join, we encourage you to make lots of friends in order to
optimize your experience by sharing and networking.
Finding Friends
You
can find friends through the Community, where Aunties connect on
various areas of interest in Forums, Groups and Blogs – including the
Aunthology. You can also search directly for Friends and invite new
Friends to join. Savvy Auntie encourages learning from other Savvy
Aunties.
Get the Most
We
encourage you to use your voice and experience to empower other Savvy
Aunties with knowledge and expertise. Love one of our Gift ideas? Rate
it. Have a way to make an Activity more engaging? Comment on it. Want
to share your Expertise? Start an Auntiepedia Topic.
We also
encourage you to share SavvyAuntie.com content on other websites, social
networks and social bookmarks so that other Aunties, who are not yet
members of SavvyAuntie.com, can benefit (just click on Share This icon below each
item - we certainly don't mean to copy and paste content). Savvy Auntie Karma is incredibly influential – the more you
give, the more you get back, the more others get back.
Privacy is Important
While
sharing is important – you should be able to choose who you share with
and when. That’s why you can lock and unlock what you choose to share
with all Savvy Aunties, just your Friends, or no one at all. While we
encourage you to invite your nieces and nephews to visit your Profile, we don’t want them
to have to create a Profile and Join. Instead, simply use the “Send to a Friend” links or copy and paste the URL into an email. When
completing your niece and nephew profiles, do not include any contact
information.

of expression is important, but please read our
