iVillage announces new contest for Moms

Moms who submit their stories enter for a chance to win a personal chef, babysitter or professional cleaner. Plus, the three Grand Prize Winners will also receive a special dinner, prepared by a contestant from Bravo's Top Chef. The Grand Prize Winners' momtourage members can also each receive a $500 spa gift certificate.

Moms can enter at www.momtourage.com through August 1, 2008. The ten finalists will be selected on August 15 by a panel of iVillage editors and celebrity judges. The iVillage community will then get to vote for their favorites from August 18, 2008 through August 29, 2008. (After voting, users will be directed to a sweepstakes area for a chance to win daily prizes.)

Momtourage.com is also debuting new features designed to make a mom's life easier. Everything from tips on choosing babysitters and dinners to back-to-school ideas and the best kids' snacks.
