About The Founder
Tausha Kelly was raised in Los Angeles, California, in a family shaped by resilience. With both her grandmother and mother experiencing motherhood as teenagers, Tausha witnessed firsthand the challenges young mothers face and the lack of resources available to support them. These early experiences planted the seed for her lifelong passion for helping pregnant and parenting teens.
Determined to make a difference, Tausha pursued a path in social work, turning her passion into purpose. Her vision came to life in 2006 when she founded Mommy Shows Best, an initiative created to provide support, guidance, and resources to young mothers in need. Through her work as a social worker and Case Manager Supervisor serving the homeless population, Tausha deepened her commitment to advocating for vulnerable communities. Her hands-on experience only strengthened her resolve to build environments where individuals and families can access the tools they need to succeed.
A devoted mother of three sons—Jordan, Jaren, and Jolen—along with two bonus sons - Kani & Santiago and a proud grandmother of two beautiful granddaughters, Alayna & Ka’Leah, Tausha draws inspiration from her family every day. Her love for them fueled the creation of 4MY4JS, representing Jesus, Jordan, Jaren, and Jolen—the foundation of her faith, strength, and motivation.
Although her mother and grandmother have since passed on, their legacy lives through her work. Tausha continues to honor them by fighting against homelessness and striving to ensure that individuals and families in need receive the support and resources necessary to build better lives.
