15 Mom Influencers to Follow (2024)

When someone describes themself as an influencer, they’re typically met with one of two very different reactions. Either an exaggerated eye roll or genuine enthusiasm. A lot of people tend to think influencers, better known as content creators nowadays, don't have real jobs. But that couldn't be farther from the truth. These content creators spend hours daily curating inspiration, advice, entertainment and personal stories for their communities. And many of them have thriving careers or own businesses behind what you see on Instagram.

As the number of influencers continues to increase each year, more and more moms are turning to social media to find parenting advice and to connect with likeminded people. For many moms, myself included, influencers have become valuable resources for parenthood and life in general.

It’s no wonder, given that mom influencers can offer advice on various parenting styles and insight into different stages of motherhood. But as the number of “mommy influencers” continues to increase each year, it’s getting harder to find the ones offering real sound advice.

So I created a round-up of mom influencers to follow that I love to keep up with who create authentic, valuable, and relatable content.
