About Heather
Heather Watson is a wife to her hubby-in-crime, Karl and a mommy of three: first born son Elijah, (born in August 2012 and watches over them from heaven), her rainbow baby girl Karmyn (born October 2013) and her youngest wildest Watson, Kaiya (born in July 2016). Heather became a Program Director for Mommy Connections while on maternity leave. Since Karmyn was born, she just couldn’t imagine herself leaving to return to her job. She began to brainstorm how she could bridge the gap between her two loves: staying home with Karmyn and socializing with new mommies and their little ones. That’s when Mommy Connections was introduced to her and she hasn’t looked back since it’s Durham launch in April 2014.
Bringing such a unique concept to Durham Region is exactly what was needed. The community is all about family and children and there are several resources available, however there was nothing in place to advise mommies of all the available resources…until now.
Heather is so excited to meet all of her new members and be able to provide them with some much sought-after information and resources available through her programs that may not have, otherwise, been available.
Mommy Connections Durham is where relationships are formed between moms and their children that may last for years to come. For Heather and her girls and for her family, it really can’t get any better than that. Making connections and finding your mom squad is so important! Heather will be here to help you every step of the way.
