    Note from Anita

    Happy, Happy Wednesday! Today is a very exciting day for me. I'm proud to announce that finally, I've added Mommy's Helper's Online Community. I hope this to be a great way to interact with our subscribers and all of Mommy's Helper's visitors more. To celebrate we're hosting a "Post The Most" contest for all members. (See "Other Announcements" below for more details and prizes.) Please, check out the new boards and feel free to let me know what you think. I look forward to "cyber-meeting" each and everyone of you. Stop by our "Meet And Greet" section and post your intro!

    Children and their ages:
    two children ages 30 and 39

    Started Business: 1983

    Products:
    Solutions for building a better life. Products and services to help women and children build healthy, strong bodies at any age. My products were created to help you improve physically, mentally and emotionally. There are no age barriers for good health. You can look and feel fantastic at any age.

    Why you chose this business :
    I was very sick as a child. I have overcome my health issues and gone on to create a life for myself that is filled with health, vibrancy, prosperity and love. I want to share what I have learned with everyone. I consider the success of my customers to be the most important thing I can offer them.

    Hardest part of business :
    Having enough time to do everything I want to do for everyone. I keep strong communication with my customers by email and sometimes even by telephone. It is very time consuming, but very rewarding. I have developed a reputation for extreme caring in my service and that is the reward

    Best part of business:
    Seeing the way my creation has changed the lives of people all over the world.

    Are you successful by your standards?
    Absolutely. My business has grown to be a world wide business touching people in every corner of ht world and most of this has happened by word of mouth advertising.

    Biggest support :
    The love, passion and devotion of my customers
