crunchy mom
Granola-style parent type
A crunchy mom embraces natural or alternative parenting practices—home birth, extended breastfeeding, cloth diapers, organic food, limited screen time, skepticism of vaccines or conventional medicine.
The term evokes granola and health food stores, suggesting an earthy, back-to-nature approach: The crunchy moms at playgroup were comparing baby carriers.
The label can be self-adopted or gently mocking.
