Introducing the Mama Approved Seal
The Mama Approved Seal is our stamp of approval for businesses, restaurants, and spaces that truly get moms—whether you're bringing your littles along OR finally getting a night to yourself.
These are the places that make motherhood a little easier, a little more enjoyable, and a lot more welcoming. Some are perfect for mama + mini outings. Others are ideal sanctuaries for mamas-only nights out, self-care, and much-needed breaks.
When you see the Mama Approved Seal, you know you're walking into a space that values and supports moms 🤎
What Does It Take to Earn the Mama Approved Seal?Not every business makes the cut. To earn the Mama Approved Seal from Mamas & Minis, a business must meet criteria in one of two categories:
Category 1: Mama + Mini Approved
Perfect for outings with your littles
Mama-Friendly Atmosphere
Welcoming to strollers (wide aisles, accessible entrance, stroller parking)
High chairs or booster seats available
Clean, accessible restrooms with changing tables
Staff who are patient and kind when chaos happens
Safe & Clean Environment
Clean play areas (if applicable)
Safe spaces for crawlers and toddlers to explore
Well-maintained facilities
Kid-Friendly Offerings
Kids' menu or toddler-approved options
Activities, toys, or entertainment for littles
Indoor or outdoor space where kids can move around
The Vibe
A place where moms don't feel judged for messy kids, tantrums, or needing a moment
Somewhere you can actually relax (or at least try to!)
A space where both mamas and minis feel welcome
Category 2: Mamas-Only Approved
Perfect for self-care, girls' nights, and mama time
Mama-Centered Experience
Services or offerings specifically beneficial for moms (spa treatments, fitness classes, wine nights, etc.)
Atmosphere that allows mamas to truly unwind and disconnect
Staff who understand what moms need (and deserve!)
Quality & Value
High-quality services, food, or experiences
Worth the time away from home (and the babysitter cost!)
Thoughtful attention to detail
Community-Minded
Willing to offer special perks or experiences for our mama community
Supportive of moms taking time for themselves
Creates a welcoming, judgment-free environment
The Vibe
A place where moms can be themselves, not just "mom"
Somewhere that feels like a treat, not just an errand
A space that reminds you that YOU matter too
Why Both Categories Matter
Because motherhood isn't one-size-fits-all, and neither are our needs.
Sometimes we need a place where we can bring our kids without stress. Other times, we need a place where we can leave the mom hat at the door and just be.
The Mama Approved Seal helps you find both 🤎
