Where is your hometown?

Hatch, NM

How did you find FIT4MOM?

A friend, who is also a FIT4MOM mom, liked a FIT4MOM post on Facebook. I saw the page, read some of the posts and looked at the upcoming events and decided this would be a great social experience for my toddler and myself.

What is/was your career?

Accountant

How long have you been a member of FIT4MOM Las Cruces, and what has it done for you?

I have been a member since January 2022. It has been a great place for myself and Declan to have social interactions and a place for me to have friendship, support, and understanding from other mamas.

What is your favorite class exercise?

My favorite class exercise is the mat work that includes the core work and stretching.

What is something that has surprised you about motherhood?

Your child's personality really changes how you think you would "parent" or "teach" in certain situations.

What are three of your favorite things?

Music, spending time with my family, delicious food.

What is your proudest mommy moment so far?

My proudest mommy moments are when Declan tells me that he is so happy.

What advice would you give to a new mother?

Hang in there, you are loved, and find a group of other moms that will encourage and support you. Find what works for you and be open to asking other moms what worked for them.

We are so lucky to have Danielle in our village. It wouldn't be the same without her and Declan!
