We finally found a mom with more kids than Hilaria and Daphne! Andrea Canning is a mom of six. That should be enough of an introduction, but she is also a Dateline correspondent at NBC, screenwriter for Hallmark and Lifetime movies, and wife of US Marine Lt. Col. Tony Bancroft. Born in Ontario, Canada, she became an ABC News correspondent covering the White House and the Iraq War. She also contributes to NBC's Today, NBC Nightly News, and MSNBC.
Andrea tells Hilaria and Daphne how she juggles her hard-hitting career while raising 6 kids. She discusses how a cold email got her a gig writing movies for Lifetime and Hallmark, and how working for Dateline has shaped aspects of her parenting. You'll hear about her experience with in vitro fertilization which resulted in her 6th kid and first son. She brought along three of her daughters who participated in our Mom Brain game, "Name your kid's candy!"
