Lauren Pedecone

Franchise Owner

Stroller Strides Instructor

Body Boost Instructor

Lauren Pedecone lives in Bolingbrook with her husband, Ron, her son, Michael (10), daughter, Maggie (7), Mia (4) and dogs, Gambit and King. After graduating from the University of Iowa, she taught 7th and 8th grade English for seven years before having Michael. After a few months back to teaching in the classroom, she decided she wanted to be with Michael more so she became a full-time stay at home mom. However, she didn’t know any other stay at home moms, so she was super excited when she found Stroller Strides!

Only a month after deciding to stay home, she applied to be an instructor for FIT4MOM and was hired! Coming from a diverse background consisting of formal dance training, playing on several different sports teams, coaching, and being an overall fitness fanatic, she knew she would love transitioning to teaching fitness classes!

Here we are now, ten years later, and she loves being the owner of the Naperville franchise! It is her personal mission to make every woman and mother she encounters to feel loved and comfortable in her own skin. She also wants all moms to have a place to call home, a group of women to lean on and to have fun. She’s on a mission to find all the moms and help them find strength in motherhood!
