On EssentialMom’s Resources pages, you will find all manner of services—some I have used, some I have not, but all who feel that this site is of use to the community and all of which have taken the leap of faith to advertise to you here— to make your life easier, on your terms, to support a service that makes sense to you, and to give back to the people in the community who support their livelihoods.

Along with our advertisers, here are some more good resources to help you find your way around Westchester.

KIDSavvy Westchester: A parents’ guide of information and inspiration, by Betsy Cadel and Laura E. Wilker. A great book with things to do, places to go, and important services for your little ones.  Be sure to check out the newly updated and expanded 2006 edition.

American Towns Network: A great on-line resource to find out what is happening in your own town, community resources, school board meetings, special events, etc. Visit americantowns.com.
