Sarah Vander Schaaff

Sarah is very excited to be featured on PunchBugKIDS and share her humorous take on parenthood with readers. Sarah’s writing has appeared in The Washington Post’s On Parenting blog, (The College Roommate Paring isn’t So Random Anymore; What we’re Reading, Knick Knack Paddywhack) and The Post’s Op-Ed page shortly after the disappearance of Malaysian flight 370 (How Should Parents Discuss World Catastrophes with their Children?.) She recently kicked off The Weather Channel’s morning show feature on mom bloggers, interviewed by host Maria Larosa, and was a guest on HuffPost Live’s program with Nancy Redd. In 2010, Double X’s Hanna Rosin called Sarah her “new favorite mom blogger,” and she was honored when Lisa Belkin selected two of her posts (When a Child Does Not Sleep; (Finally) Getting Some Sleep) for her NY Times Motherlode blog.

Sarah cut her journalism teeth at CBS News/48 Hours before a career in teaching, motherhood and blogging. While many of these blog posts first appeared on Sarah’s blog, Lunch Box Mom, she now leads the new site, Sarah’s Notes. Check it out and follow her on Twitter @writeonsarah.
