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.

So proud to be named one of Twinkl's Best Family Bloggers for 2023

My heart swelled at the sight of Adriana’s joy. My heart swelled at the sight of Adriana’s joy. 

She feels seen as a girl with T1D. 

With her CGM, and insulin pump. 

It’s one of the things that we work hard to instil in her, that she is “seen”, loved and that she should never feel embarrassed of her illness. 

It’s her superpower to educate others and advocate for T1D.

Tag fellow T1D warriors 💙
