Jen's List - A Powerful Mom Empowering Women.
By Bobbi Miller-MoroIn the beginning everyone wants to ‘have it all’ in life. In my continued quest of searching for exceptional mothers around the world who embody the verycharacteristics of mothers who enjoy the full bounties of life, I find these exquisitegems. Jennifer Levinson was my next discovery.When my favorite daycare was requestedan interview by reporter Stacey Butler from CBS Channel 2 News in LosAngeles, we were happily surprised. Wefound out that the Stacey found GreatExpectations Child Care in Mission Hillsthrough Jens List, a mom's guide towhat's “hot, new, and undiscovered - frombaby products to nannies to fun familystuff to do.” I had heard about thispopular website that Jennifer had comeup with unintentionally. I sat down withthis busy mom of five boys to uncover her secrets of how she started thisphenomenon in the middle of her busylife.
Bobbi: Where did you come up withthe idea to do a blog like yours?
Jennifer:
It was never something that I planned on. I was on bed rest with my 1
st
set of twins for 5 months and was so bored in bed. I subscribed to a lot of magazines, watched TV and searched the web and when I found somethingcool, I would pass it along to a few of my friends. They forwarded the info to
their 
friends and soon, 5, turned into 20, 20 turned into 100 and now we are almost at9000 members.
Bobbi: How long has it been running?
 
Jennifer:
It started in April 2005
Bobbi: What type of successes have you had?
 
Jennifer:
For almost 4 years I did it 100% for free. In Jan. of this year, I decidedto have a top sponsor and the idea has been very successful. I am booked atleast 2 months in advance now for that spot!
Bobbi: How many children do you have?
Jennifer:
5 boys, including 2 sets of identical twins

Jennifer:
 
I do all my work from a computer sitting in my dining room on a TV tray!
Bobbi: Can you generate enough from your blog to not work on an outside job?

The sponsorship has been a wonderful 2
nd
source of income for our family.

I love being involved in my children’s school and volunteeringwhenever I can.

Jennifer:
I would like to grow the membership as much as I can and perhaps takeJens List to other cities and states.
Bobbi: Can you believe your success?

It is hard to believe what Jens List has turned into and how far it’s comefrom nothing. I am so incredibly blessed and thank my lucky stars everyday for what it has become.
Bobbi: What makes your service different or stand out from thecompetition?
 
Jennifer:
