About The Publisher: Heather Zielinski

Before we dive into all the exciting events and activities, let me introduce myself. I'm Heather Zielinski, a proud wife to my amazing husband—we're closing in on 10 incredible years together—and a devoted mom to three fantastic kiddos. My five-year-old daughter keeps me on my toes with her gymnastics, ninja, and swim lessons, while my step-kids, aged 12 and 14, bring a whole new level of energy and excitement into our lives. Balancing family life with my roles as a full-time content marketer and a mom is a juggling act, but it's a journey I wouldn't trade for anything. 

When I'm not immersed in the world of marketing or wrangling the kids, you can often find me indulging my passions for camping and exploring the great outdoors, or dipping my toes into the world of yoga, always eager to learn and grow. Our home base is nestled in the heart of Maricopa's Homestead South community, where we've been soaking up the sunshine and community spirit for almost three wonderful years. 

In addition to my professional pursuits, I'm also a partner alongside my mom at Maricopa Notary & Signing Agents, where we're dedicated to providing top-notch service to our community. And speaking of community, that's what drew me to MacaroniKID in the first place. I saw a need to bring together all the fantastic resources and activities available for families in Maricopa and Casa Grande, and I wanted to create a centralized hub where parents could easily find inspiration and ideas to make memories with their little ones. 

As a storyteller and social media manager at heart, I'm excited to share my creativity and passion with you through MacaroniKID. From local gems like the Phoenix Children's Museum and Copper Sky Recreation Center to national treasures like Great Wolf Lodge and Disney World (my personal happy places!), I'm here to be your guide to all things family fun. 

Whether you're a mom (or the occasional dad) dreaming of a creativity-filled day with your kiddos or a local looking for the perfect weekend outing, I'm here to help make every moment with your family unforgettable. Let's embark on this journey together and make some magical memories along the way.
