Testimonials:

"I was so scared and worried about my capabilities as a mother, that is until I found Mocha Moms. By being a part of such a dynamic sisterhood of mothers who look just like me, has really helped me adjust to the adventure of motherhood. Since Mocha Moms has been in my life, I have learned the true meaning of loving support.  I  cannot wait to pay it forward to other moms in my community!" 

Tinuade A., Ontario - Mother to 11 months old Mecca

"The friendships that I have developed as a result of Mocha Moms I am eternally grateful for. Mocha Moms has filled that void I have needed in this season of my life. I am so glad that I have found Mocha Moms because I was in desperate need of other moms that looked like me to help me through my journey of motherhood. Mocha Moms has given me so much more than I have given to the chapter and I will continue to serve in any capacity that I can." 

Lena D.,  Fontana - Mother to Chauncey 4, Darius 2 and Joaquim 6 months old

"Being a member of the Inland Valley Mocha Moms has given me a great support network of sisters that I can count on for support, encouragement and to stand in agreement on what positive parenting is all about. I like the fact that there are many things to get involved in with the chapter but not to the point of feeling overwhelmed. If I have a question to ask, I have many expert moms to assist me. I am a working mom and I appreciate that I am accepted and supported by my sisters."
