About Me:

Hi I'm Nikita.

Welcome to my corner of the online sphere. A place where we can be honest about mothering while trying to juggle life as working moms. As mothers, we worry about losing our identity, so let's find out together. With eight years of experience as a wordsmith, I'm never at a loss of words but maybe that's my Portuguese heritage coming through.

Little Miss Sunshine ☀️ over here hasn’t bee Little Miss Sunshine ☀️ over here hasn’t been her regular cheery self. I think we as adults forget how big the world is through the eyes of a child. How they listen carefully to our conversations but don’t understand the enormity of emotions tied to it. As much as we adults need to keep our mental-health in check, we need to do the same for our children. The pandemic hasn’t been easy for anyone and children in particular are bearing the brunt of it. The opening and closing of schools. Constant talk of “so and so” has Covid. “Did you know ‘so and so’ died?” We’ve banned talking about Covid in our house now because Adriana is overwhelmed. My trip to the hospital hasn’t helped and has pushed her over the edge so we’re taking it one day at the time and getting her the help that she needs. My heart broke as she told my hubby and I how she misses “things the way they were” and “no masks at play time”. According to @unicef as a parent you can help your child by: - Being calm and proactive. - Stick to a routine as children need structure. -Support their emotions. So much has changed for them too. Don’t brush their feelings aside. - Check what is being said around your child. - Check your own behaviour as a parent because children take emotional cues from what they are witnessing. What other tips do you use to help your child’s mental well-being?

The weekend is here baby! After a busy week, who The weekend is here baby! After a busy week, who wants to dirty the kitchen? We don’t. Also a much needed date-in for these parents is long overdue. So what says “I love you” like … Deep-fried Oreos with Nutella and supporting your fave local restaurants with @ubereats_za . We spoiled ourselves with delicious meals from our local favourite restaurant @lekremarylakefield with @ubereats_za app. You can share your love for your fave restaurant with Uber Eats by winning one of three vouchers worth R300. • Tag a friend and mention the restaurant you are supporting (tag them if they’re on IG) • Follow @ubereats_za on Instagram • Use #UberEatsGetsIt We’re loving the Uber app for a number of reasons: - You can track the progress of your order from beginning to end. Get into our bellies! - Deliveries are contactless, so users can select “leave at the door” on checkout to ensure social distancing measures are followed. - You can schedule orders ahead of time. So you can get your orders in before the rush and closing time. - Share your delivery by sending food to friends so they can receive their meal at the same time for a virtual date. Pretty cool hey! #ad #ubereatsgetsit #supportingrestaurants #salifestyleblogger #samomblogger #samommyblogger #samomblogs #joburgmomblogger
Did you know that proteas are part of the fynbos a Did you know that proteas are part of the fynbos across our Western and Eastern Cape? The beauty of our national flower is the resilience that this flower endures. Burnt, ashen fynbos may look like a wasteland of nothing but the extreme heat of the flames that licked the landscape ensures its survival. Under such devastation, beauty rises from the ashes. I realised today that we and I for one have tried to “fast-forward” through pain, grief and devastation. It’s a feeling that we don’t want to go through. Through… “Continuing in time towards completion” That’s the word we forget; we have to work through the devastation. Physically I’m almost healed but the emotional devastation is something I’m battling with. All forms of loss is not something that you “just get over”. I hope that with your own devastation in your life that you work through it. Lean on people. Lean on your faith, lean on your friends. I find that I’m clinging to these things as my safety net as I try to rise up from the ashes. Beauty will come from ashes "To provide for those who grieve...to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes."
