Mommy’s Dressing Room

Last Updated: April 30, 2026 | Effective Date: April 30, 2026

Mommy’s Dressing Room is a curated information service. By accessing or using mommysdressingroom.com, our membership content, our private community spaces, our email communications, our social media accounts, or any related content, you acknowledge and agree to the disclaimers below.

1. Curator Role — Not Endorsement

Mommy’s Dressing Room curates information about youth programs, scholarships, summer camps, after-school activities, trade school opportunities, and family resources primarily in the Chicagoland area, along with related lifestyle, family, and parenting content.

Except where expressly disclosed as a sponsored or paid relationship in accordance with Section 8 below, we are NOT affiliated with, endorsed by, or partnered with any program, organization, business, school, instructor, or service provider listed in our content.

Inclusion of any program in our blog posts, member drops, emails, social media content, or community discussions does NOT constitute:

An endorsement of the program or its operators
A recommendation that you enroll your child
A guarantee of program quality, safety, or suitability
A representation that the program is appropriate for any specific child
A vouching of the program’s instructors, staff, facilities, or methods

We share programs because we find them interesting or potentially valuable for Chicagoland families — not because we have personally inspected, vetted, or guaranteed any aspect of those programs.

2. No Guarantee of Accuracy

All program details — including but not limited to:

Dates, times, and schedules
Costs, fees, and pricing structures
Age requirements and prerequisites
Locations and meeting venues
Instructor names and qualifications
Registration deadlines and procedures
Program availability and capacity
Curriculum, activities, or educational content
Background check status of staff
Insurance, licensing, or certifications

— are subject to change by the program provider at any time without notice to us.

We make no warranty, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, completeness, currency, or reliability of any information shared.

Each program listing reflects information available to us at the time of publication. You agree to independently verify all program details directly with the program provider before:

Registering your child
Making any payment or financial commitment
Sharing program information with others
Making decisions based on the listing

3. Parent/Guardian Responsibility

Decisions regarding your child’s enrollment, participation, and supervision in any program listed in our content are entirely YOUR decision and YOUR responsibility.

You expressly agree that you will:

Verify all program details directly with the program provider before enrolling
Conduct your own due diligence regarding program safety, staff qualifications, background checks, insurance coverage, facility conditions, and suitability for your specific child
Review each program’s own terms, waivers, releases, contracts, and policies before signing or paying
Monitor your child’s experience and remove them from any program that proves unsafe, inappropriate, or unsatisfactory
Make independent decisions about your child’s participation based on YOUR knowledge of YOUR child and YOUR family’s circumstances

We do not act in loco parentis. We do not supervise programs. We do not vet instructors. We do not certify safety. You are the parent. The decision is yours.

4. No Professional Advice

Content shared in our membership, blog, emails, social media, or community spaces does NOT constitute professional advice of any kind, including but not limited to:

Legal advice — even when discussing topics like contracts, custody, school enrollment, or scholarship terms
Financial advice — even when discussing program costs, scholarship awards, tax implications, or family finances
Medical or psychological advice — even when discussing programs that involve physical activity, mental health, developmental milestones, or therapeutic services
Educational advice — even when discussing curriculum, school choice, homeschool methods, or academic programs
Safety or risk-management advice — even when discussing background checks, supervision, or protective measures

All content is provided for informational purposes only. Always consult qualified, licensed professionals for decisions affecting your child’s education, health, safety, finances, or legal status.

5. Personal Experiences and Opinions

When we share our own experiences with programs (our family’s participation, our honest reviews, our personal observations), these reflect OUR family’s individual experience at a specific point in time.

Your child’s experience may differ significantly from ours. Variables that affect program experience include but are not limited to:

The child’s age, personality, interests, and prior experience
Instructor changes between sessions
Facility or location changes
Group size and dynamics on a given day
Curriculum or program updates
Time of year, season, and external factors

What worked beautifully for our six children may not work for yours — and vice versa. Treat all personal anecdotes as starting points for your own evaluation, not as predictions of your child’s experience.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:

Mommy’s Dressing Room and its operating entity My Quantum Leap LLC, including our owners, members, employees, contractors, affiliates, and agents, shall NOT be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising out of or in connection with:

Your or your child’s participation in, experience with, or outcomes from any program listed in our content
Any injury, damage, loss, harm, illness, abuse, or death resulting from program participation
Programs that are full, canceled, postponed, discontinued, modified, or fail to meet your expectations
Decisions you make based on information shared in our content
Inaccuracies or omissions in program listings
The acts, omissions, conduct, or negligence of any third-party program provider, instructor, or staff member
Any contract, dispute, or legal matter arising between you and any third-party program provider
Any product, service, or program purchased through an affiliate link or sponsored content

This limitation applies even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability — to the extent any limitation is unenforceable in your jurisdiction, this section shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law.

7. Third-Party Links and Content

Our content contains links to third-party websites, registration pages, social media profiles, online retailers, and other external resources. We are NOT responsible for:

The content, accuracy, or completeness of any linked website
The privacy practices of any third-party website
The availability or functioning of any external link
Any transactions or interactions you have with third-party providers
Any content, products, or services offered by third parties
Pricing, availability, or quality of products purchased through external retailers

You access third-party websites at your own risk and subject to those websites’ own terms and privacy policies.

8. Affiliate Relationships, Sponsored Content, and Material Connections

In compliance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR Part 255 (“Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising”), we provide the following disclosure regarding our material connections to brands, products, services, and programs featured across our website, blog, membership content, email communications, social media, and community spaces.

8a. We Use Affiliate Links

Mommy’s Dressing Room participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means that some links across our content — including blog posts, member drops, emails, social media, and community spaces — are affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate commissions help us continue creating and curating content for Chicagoland families.

The types of affiliate relationships we may have include, but are not limited to:

Amazon Associates / Amazon Influencer Program — As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
Direct brand partnerships — Individual relationships with brands or retailers.
Affiliate networks — Including but not limited to Impact.com, ShareASale, CJ Affiliate, Rakuten, Awin, and similar platforms.
Program and service referral partnerships — Including registration affiliates for camps, classes, educational platforms, subscription boxes, and other family-related services.
Other affiliate or revenue-share arrangements that may be added over time.

8b. We Accept Sponsored Content

Mommy’s Dressing Room may publish sponsored content, including but not limited to:

Sponsored posts and reviews — where a brand pays us to feature their product, program, or service
Paid brand partnerships — including ongoing relationships, ambassadorships, and campaigns
Paid product reviews — where we receive free products in exchange for our honest opinion
Sponsored emails or member drops — where a portion of our paid content is funded by a brand
Sponsored social media content — including posts, stories, reels, and other formats

8c. How We Disclose Material Connections

We commit to clearly and conspicuously disclosing material connections in accordance with FTC guidelines:

On the website (blog posts and pages):

Posts containing affiliate links will include a disclosure at or near the top of the post — for example: “This post contains affiliate links. If you purchase through these links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.”
Sponsored posts will be clearly identified — for example: “Sponsored by [Brand Name]” or “This post is a paid partnership with [Brand Name].”

In email communications:

Emails containing affiliate links will include a disclosure within the email itself, not solely on the linked website.
Sponsored emails will be identified as such within the email body.

In social media content:

Sponsored posts will use platform-required disclosure tools (such as Instagram’s “Paid Partnership” tag) and/or hashtags such as #ad, #sponsored, or #paidpartnership.
Affiliate posts will include #affiliate, #affiliatelink, or equivalent language.

In member drops and community content:

Member drops containing affiliate links or sponsored placements will be clearly labeled.
Community spaces will not be used for undisclosed promotional content.

8d. Editorial Independence

Affiliate relationships and sponsored content do not change our honest opinions. We only feature programs, products, and services that we genuinely believe may be valuable to our audience. A brand cannot purchase a positive review from us. We retain full editorial control over what we feature, how we feature it, and the language we use.

If we receive a free product, payment, or commission opportunity for a program or product we do NOT believe in, we will either decline to feature it or feature it with our honest critique.

8e. No Obligation and No Price Impact

You are never obligated to use our affiliate links or purchase sponsored products. Affiliate links do not cost you anything extra — the commission is paid by the retailer or brand from their own marketing budget.

We encourage you to evaluate any product, program, or service on its own merits before purchasing, regardless of whether you reach it through one of our affiliate links.

8f. Reservation of Right to Modify

We reserve the right to add, modify, or terminate affiliate relationships and sponsored content arrangements at any time. The presence or absence of any specific affiliate relationship at any given time should not be assumed.

8g. Where Disclosure Conflicts

If specific FTC, state, or platform-specific disclosure rules require additional or different language than what appears in this section, those rules govern the disclosure for that specific instance. This section establishes our general practice; specific disclosures may be more detailed where law requires.

9. Content Intended for Parents, Not Children

All content from Mommy’s Dressing Room is intended for adult parents and guardians (18+) — NOT for children directly.

Programs we feature are intended for children, but the information, decisions, and registration responsibilities belong to the parent. We do not direct content to children, collect data from children, or facilitate direct communication between children and our service.

If your child accesses our content, that access is your responsibility to monitor and govern.

10. No Guarantee of Results

We make no representations or warranties about:

The educational benefits your child will receive from any featured program
The skills your child will develop through participation
The likelihood your child will enjoy or excel at any program
The lifelong impact of participation
Scholarship award outcomes (we share opportunities; we do not control awards)
College admissions outcomes (we share preparation opportunities; we do not predict acceptance)
Career outcomes (we share career exploration opportunities; we do not guarantee employment)
Outcomes from any product purchased through an affiliate link or sponsored placement

Every child is different. Every program is different. Outcomes vary widely based on factors entirely outside our control or knowledge.

This Disclaimer shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, the state in which My Quantum Leap LLC (operating as Mommy’s Dressing Room) is registered, without regard to conflict of law provisions. Any disputes arising from this Disclaimer or the use of our content shall be resolved in the courts of Cook County, Illinois.
