In 'Workin' Moms', Val Szalinsky played by Sarah McVie is known for being the leader of the "Mommy and Me" group, where the four leading ladies, Kate Foster (Catherine Reitman), Anne Carlson (Dani Kind), Frankie Coyne (Juno Rinaldi), and Jenny Matthews (Jessalyn Wanlim) come together.

All of the moms at the center of CBC’s Workin’ Moms has their own unique personality, but none of them quite measure up to Val Szalinsky (Sarah McVie). While many of the moms’ kids have graduated from the Mommy and Me group, it’s so great to still see Val popping up everywhere from birthing classes to helping Kate (Catherine Reitman) babysit at home. Val has become an integral part of this show and she’s about to make an even bigger mark on this week’s episode, “Girl’s Trip,” which sees Kate, Anne (Dani Kind), Frankie (Juno Rinaldi) and Val take a memorable “trip” to celebrate Frankie’s birthday.

"But this opening montage in Season 2 of CBC's "Workin' Moms" perfectly captures the chaos of parenting a toddler. The same brutal honesty that made Season 1 so compelling (the breast milk stains, the crying in the boardroom, the postpartum depression), is back, and it's pushing even more boundaries."
