About Us

What can we do with the kids today? What destinations are family-friendly? Has anyone else had trouble with potty training?

Parenting is a joy, but it can also be tough and exhausting. It’s more fun to give and get support along the way.

Welcome to SoVa Parents, a resource dedicated to parents in the heart of Southern Virginia: moms, dads and all types of caretakers.

This project sprang from a desire to connect local families into community so they can support one another by sharing ideas, advice, and recommendations for fun things to do.

We also hope to share relevant news and events. Is something missing? We’d love to hear from you. Send in your recommendations through our contact form.
