Our Story

About Us

We believe in friendly professionalism. We believe in maintaining trust and integrity with our readers. We do not write paid reviews.

We have opinions.

  • We believe in budget-conscious, useful products.
  • We prefer “green” or earth-friendly products but understand that sometimes convenience wins.
  • We splurge when it’s worth it. Value is nice.
  • We believe in full disclosure in our reviews and by the brands we work with.
  • We refuse to buy into the “mommy review blogs suck” mentality. We’re awesome.

We are professionals with backgrounds in copywriting, web marketing, consumer goods, web design, digital media, SEO and print media.  We also have a pile of kids.

Our reviews are not regurgitated press releases.

Do you want to know what Your Mama thinks?  Contact us and we’ll let you know if we’re interested in giving your product a test run.  Be aware that our reviews are absolutely impartial.  If you send us a product and we think it sucks, we’re going to say it sucks.  (But we probably won’t request a test run of something that sounds absolutely heinous, so that’s two points.) (And if we really hate the product, we’ll take it up with you over email and call it a day.)

Giveaway Policies

We require that brands ship prizes/gift cards to the winners we draw using Random.org.  Winners have 72 hours to respond.  If they don’t, we re-draw.

The YMR Team promotes giveaways on over 30 websites.  We monitor comments, delete inappropriate entries, and select winners using Random.org.  We contact winners and provide you with their shipping information.  A minimum of three hours is spent managing giveaways. We charge a $30 administrative fee for this service, payable by PayPal.  Please respect our time and efforts.

Our Niche

While we absolutely adore window shopping and shiny objects, we are most likely to review something the average family can afford and will get a lot of use out of.  (So no $3,000 ride-on toys.)

Got Ideas?

We heart our readers. Want to share a favorite product, service or website?  Contact us and tell us all about it.  If we use your suggestion in a review, we’ll give you a shout out (and a link to your blog/twitter account).  In some cases, we allow guest contributors to review products they love.  It doesn’t hurt to ask.
