  • She thought her daughter wasn’t noticing —
    the late nights, the work calls, the moments of doubt.

    But one evening, her little girl said,
    “Mama, I want to work like you when I grow up.”

    And in that moment, she realised —
    She wasn’t just balancing work and motherhood.
    She was teaching what strength looks like.

    At Nino Mondo, we celebrate parents…

  • It’s easy to give in to the convenience of handing a child a phone, but have we truly thought about what it does to their developing brains? Excessive screen time isn’t just a bad habit; it has serious consequences on cognitive growth, social skills, and mental health.

    When we realize the effects—distracted minds, reduced empathy,…

  • Nobody asks dads, “How are you holding up?”
    And maybe that’s the problem.
    We celebrate the baby. We support the mom.
    But the father? He quietly becomes the “rock” — expected to stay strong, provide, hold it all together. No breakdowns allowed.

  • Ever noticed how people still say “he/she” when referring to someone whose gender is unknown?

    ❌ “If a child leaves his/her toy behind, he/she should come back for it.”
    ✅ “If a child leaves their toy behind, they should come back for it.”

    It’s a small shift, but a powerful one. Using “they” isn’t just grammatically correct—it’s…

  • David never complained.
    He worked late. Hit his targets. Showed up every day.

    But after months of 𝐣𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬, 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠, he sent in his resignation—without warning.

    Not for a better salary. Not for a new opportunity.

  • It’s 3 AM. She’s awake, feeding her baby, knowing her alarm will go off in a few hours.

    She’ll wake up, put on a brave face, and join back-to-back meetings, pushing through exhaustion.

    She won’t mention that she’s struggling with childcare. That she feels torn between excelling in her career and being present at home.

    She won’t say…

  • 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐞𝐬—driven, dedicated, and always delivering results. Then… she became a mother.

    She tried to make it work—juggling night feeds, morning meetings, and the invisible pressure to prove she was still the same high-performer. She skipped breaks, worked late, and pushed through exhaustion.

    Until one day, she resigned.
