🚶♀️ Mom-Friendly Outdoor Moves
Because sometimes the best workout is just stepping outside. These are my favorite Burlington spots to walk, hike, and move with or without a stroller—fresh air therapy included.
My daily go-to with the stroller! Flat, beautiful lake views, and you can grab a coffee at Tamp or Sunshine Doughnuts as a reward.
Spencer Smith Park & Burlington Waterfront Trail 🌊
Great for family hikes—wide trails, stroller accessible in some areas, and a nice way to get out of the city.
Bronte Creek Provincial Park 🍃
For when you want a bit more challenge (baby-free or carrier hike). The views are incredible and it’s only 15 minutes away.
Mount Nemo Conservation Area 🏞️
💻 Online Workouts That Fit Nap Time
Quick, accessible, and totally doable for busy moms. These online workouts fit perfectly into a 20–30 min nap window or late-night me-time.
Short, mom-friendly, postpartum-safe workouts. I love her “low impact HIIT” sessions when I have 20 mins.

Dance workouts to trending songs = cardio that doesn’t feel like cardio. Perfect for a pick-me-up!

Perfect for rainy days when you can't get outside!

🏋️ Gear that Makes Me Move
The little things that keep me motivated. From leggings I actually want to wear, to water bottles that make hydration easy—these are my ride-or-die fitness essentials.
I live for closing my rings—it gamifies being active in the best way.
Apple Watch SE ⌚
Comfy enough for the playground but supportive enough for yoga class. And the high waisted are my fave for my mom pouch!
Lululemon Align Leggings 🖤
This is one of the comfiest work out shirts I wear!
Old Navy Sports Bra 💪
Keeps me hydrated on hot stroller walks or during at-home workouts. And a bonus is that it keeps my drinks cold and ice frozen for a long time!
Owala Water Bottle 💧
👩👧 Mom-Specific Movement Hacks
Turning everyday mom life into movement. Baby carriers, toddler play, and mom-friendly studios that make staying active more fun (and realistic).
Weight training with a built-in cuddle—this is how I survived my girly's first year.
Baby Carrier Walks (Ergobaby Omni Breeze) 👶
A sneaky way to turn toddler play into movement for both of us. Dance parties = cardio!
Toddler Dance Ribbons 🎀
For when I need actual gym time—love their women’s only section.
