Rachel Teodoro

My name is Rachel Teodoro and I am a mom of three kids {born in 1998, 2002, and 2005}. I am living in the greater Seattle area with my husband Mike, who is a mechanical engineer. As a mom with older kids, I focus on the pre-teen, teen and adult years that are so rarely talked about. My goal is to help parents to not be afraid of the teen years and to make the most of those years before the kids are gone. We love to travel as a family and as a couple and I share our adventures as we make memories together. My husband and I met while attending Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. I completed my bachelor's degree in child development and family studies with an emphasis on youth and families at risk. Not only do I focus on parenting, I have a degree in it! I like to craft, create and decorate my home with my thrifty finds. I am always happy to share my tips and tricks for living well on less but want my content to come across as being something anyone could do! I have been creating content for Holy Craft since 2010. Holy Craft has been recognized as one of the top 25 creative mom blogs of 2012 and 2013 and has also been recognized as one of the top 100 best sites of pregnancy and parenting by the on-line Ultrasound school. My writing has been featured on Country Living, Apartment Therapy, POPSUGAR, and found on the front page of Yahoo on more than one occasion. You can also find me as part of the TODAY Parenting team and as a contributor to the World Vision Blog. In 2016 I decided that I was more than just the crafts I created and I rebranded as Rachel Teodoro creating __________ I am a real mom sharing real stories, real life, and real projects and I hope that through my storytelling posts that people will relate with me.
