What Are The Main Line Parent LOVE Awards & Family Favorites?
The annual Main Line Parent LOVE Awards and Family Favorites recognize the BEST local resources for families, based on recent outstanding experiences and trusted recommendations from parents. Our Main Line Parent Community Facebook group has a reputation for helping parents find friends and trusted referrals and our LOVE Awards and Family Favorites elevates stories of great experiences. Winners and Favorites will be selected using a QUALITY OVER QUANTITY approach, meaning that each nomination is evaluated by a human looking for specific reasons why the recommended business or nonprofit should be recognized.
Nominations are open until Valentine’s Day. The Main Line Parent team will recognize and connect LOVE Award Winners and Family Favorite Honorees in our annual Best for Families Guide and with special events including the LOVE Luncheon and the Best for Families Celebration.
