Stacie Cockrell

Stacie Cockrell, Cathy O'Neill and Julia Stone are wives, mothers and good friends muddling through the early parenting years together. Among them they have seven kids, the oldest of whom just started kindergarten. They each had a second (or third) baby while they wrote Babyproofing Your Marriage. They don't recommend combining the two experiences. Stacie was a finance and marketing professional at Dell and cofounded a high tech company before becoming a full-time mother. Cathy, who is from Dublin, Ireland is an attorney who now works as a management consultant. Julia is a former product manager in the educational services field, also turned stay-at-home-mom.
