Editor in Chief

Meet Elena Vance

ELENA VANCE

"We write for the mother who has forgotten who she is, and we remind her. Motherhood is not a destination; it is a constant negotiation between who you were and who you are becoming."

Elena founded Nexamom in 2022 after a decade as a senior editor at a major lifestyle publication. She left the industry to raise her two children, only to realize that the thoughtful, nuanced journalism she craved was missing from the digital parenting space. Now, she leads a team of writers dedicated to the intersection of modern life and motherhood.
