March 23, 2008 (New York City, NY)--The Mighty Mommy, a Quick and Dirty Tips podcast hosted by Cherylyn Feierabend, has been named Best Parenting Podcast in the Podcast Peer Awards. Founded in 2006, the Podcast Peer Awards honor podcasters who are recognized by their peers as the most exceptional podcasters in the industry.
Every week, in addition to running her own business--a music and movement program for toddlers--Feierabend produces an audio program and Web article providing friendly, useful information for other moms (and dads). She draws from her experience as an in-home nanny, work in childcare facilities, and daily life with her two children. Her topics are often chosen from listener and reader questions. "The judges are five hundred of the best, most prolific podcasters in the world. They are not easily impressed. They only vote for the most entertaining, most informative, and best produced shows," says Dave Hitt, Podcast Peer Award organizer. "There are tens of thousands of awards in the arts. Very few are as hard to win as a Podcast Peer Award. The winners should be extremely proud of their accomplishment."
"I couldn't be prouder of Cherylyn," says Mignon Fogarty, managing director of the Quick and Dirty Tips network. "This much-deserved honor just underlines what Cherylyn's listeners and all of us at the Quick and Dirty Tips network already know: she really is a mighty mommy."
