🌍 About Me

 Hi, I’m Sheila Hayes, the mom and travel content creator behind SheMamaMaps — where I help families travel smarter, not harder.


I’m a Florida-based mom of one (plus four cats!), a travel content creator, and points-and-miles enthusiast by heart.


Over the years, I’ve turned my lifelong love of travel into a business that helps families just like mine ditch the overwhelm, stretch their budgets, and make unforgettable memories — whether it’s a cruise, a multi-destination trip overseas, or a weekend road trip.






✈️ What You’ll Find Here

This blog is where I share:


  • Practical family travel tips (without the Pinterest-perfect pressure)
  • Cruise advice and port guides (I’ve been on more than a few!)
  • How we use points and miles to fly for almost free
  • Real-life reviews of destinations, excursions, hotels, and travel products
  • And the honest truth about what family travel actually looks like

Because let’s be real: Family travel is magical, chaotic, and hilarious.


🧭 Why “SheMamaMaps”?

“SheMamaMaps” is my way of mapping out smoother, smarter adventures — so you don’t have to learn things the hard way. I do the research, test the hacks, and create the guides so you can skip straight to the fun part.


Whether you’re dreaming of a big international trip, a family cruise, or your first travel rewards redemption, I’m here to cheer you on — and show you how to make it happen.
