It takes a village to raise a child.

Today, we're exploring what it means to be an aunt and the many ways these important figures provide mentorship, guidance and care.

Whether you are a biological or surrogate aunt, these role models are instrumental in our life. But what does it mean to be an aunt in 2026?

We want to hear from you. Are you an aunt? Or do you have an aunt to shoutout? Drop us a note!
