The Team

  Brenda Gaddi – Publisher/Editor

She is the creator and community manager of Digital Parents, Australia’s largest online community for blogging parents.  She is the founder and organiser of Digital Parents Conference, a blogging conference catering to the mum, parenting and personal blogging communities of Australia. She is the founder of Blogger’s Manifesto which outlines the core values to implement Best Blogging Practices. She also runs The Mother Media, a boutique social media consulting business specialising in the mum and parent blogging niche. But her most important bloggy achievement would be the awesome people that she has met through her blog. And oh, she’s totally addicted to chocolates!
  Maria Tedeschi – Managing Editor
From the first time Maria saw Lois Lane on screen she knew she wanted to be a journalist. Completing a Bachelor of Arts (Communications) degree majoring in journalism and public relations she began her career in corporate marketing. But after the birth of her first child Maria’s passion for news, current affairs and the written word was reignited. In recent years she has specialized in all things parenting and has been published in various parenting magazines and online sites. Maria has been blogging about her life as a mother of four at Mum’s Word since 2006 where she aims to make you think and tweets as mums_word.
  Trae – Sales Marketing Coordinator
During her pregnancy, Trae lamented her lack of glow that all the movies had promised. Not content to moan about it to just those in her immediate family, she started blogging at Where’s My Glow? under the pseudonym of Glowless. She is a freelance makeup artist by trade but her most recent project is as co-founder of the only Australian based support group for parents of children with craniosynostosis. After being named the Aussie Mummy Blogger with the X Factor for 2011 she was taken on as a staff writer for an online magazine and she plans on taking over the world one word at a time. Though her current workload doesn’t lend itself to much spare time, if she had a moment she tells people she’d spend it getting a massage or drinking tea that hadn’t gone cold, when in reality she’d probably just waste it on Twitter.
