Sharon Malloy-Grochowski 

Sharon Malloy-Grochowski first and foremost is a mom who feels like she explodes with overwhelming love when she spends time with her children. Aside from her mom who has taught her everything she knows her sister is someone she also admires for keeping things in perspective and being a very involved mother.

In addition to being a mom, Sharon is a Social Worker and Doula. Within these roles she enjoys being able to help others by making their lives easier and happier. She is well connected in the Chicago area and is able to provide the best resources and referrals to new parents. She also credits herself with being a good listener and feels as a parent that this is an important trait to have. Her best piece of advice for parents is to love your children, keep them safe and shower them with a million kisses anytime you can.

Her favorite movie is "It's a Wonderful Life" with Jimmy Stewart and Donna Reed because it has a great moral to the story where everyone that touches your life brings something meaningful to learn from. As a cherished holiday tradition, she watches it with her family every year.

When Sharon has some free time from her busy schedule she loves to spoil herself with a pedicure and manicure. She calls this pampering time her "me time" which she doesn't get very often and enjoys every minute!
