I’m a sexy mom — government-funded childcare allows me to keep up my looks

She likes having mom-ents to herself.

While her 2-year-old son, Remington, is at government-funded daycare, Raven Dixon-Biggs is freshening up her wardrobe or prepping a new wig.

“I’ve been getting ready for my day for an average of 2 hours a day (full glam) since I was 15 years of age, motherhood was not going to change that,” the 29-year-old UK beauty queen told The Post in an email Saturday.

“I still have to leave the house and greet people with my child. Looking messy makes you mentally feel a mess and really sets the tone for your day.”

While some moms don’t bother “to get their roots done or go to the gym,” Dixon-Biggs refuses to let her good looks slip.

She said she takes advantage of a free UK childcare program that’s intended to encourage people to go back to work.

“With my 15 hours [a week], I’m going to the gym, laying my wig, straightening or curling my hair, I make sure I’ve got my outfits matching — pink bag, pink jacket and pink skirt, for example,” Dixon-Biggs explained to The Sun on Friday. “I make myself feel good, so that when I’m back with my child, we’re both feeling good!”

To The Post on Saturday, Dixon-Biggs said: “With my 15 hours of limited childcare throughout the week, I go to the gym, the library, meet up with friends, go to jobs, maybe have a cheeky Prosecco alone in a nice bar, volunteer in my local community and truly just try to be productive on those hours I am not with him, because it gives me a sense of pride.”

She even pampered herself going into labor, entering the delivery room with a fresh manicure, false lashes, a wig that cost more than $300 and a suitcase stuffed with hair tools, outfits and heels, rather than “baby grows and nipple cream.”

“It gave me a sense of calm as I waited for my baby, my first child, to arrive,” the mom, who hails from Birmingham, England, told The Sun.

“Even at 6 centimeters dilated, when other women are screaming in agony, I was topping up my powder.”

She told The Post that she suffered postpartum depression and split from Remington’s father when he was just 2 months old.

“I personally think most moms just simply aren’t thinking about themselves enough, and I know it’s easier said than done because part of my life/job requires me to look good,” Dixon-Biggs said.

“But even if I didn’t compete in pageants i would still glam up daily and dress well because that is who I am.”

She claims that other moms at the playground are “threatened” by her, having just been crowned Miss Sandwell 2023.

She routinely shows up in expensive frocks because she “would rather die” than be caught dead wearing sweats and no makeup.

“I hope I inspire moms to try find some ME time no matter how limited it may be. My only me time is my bathroom breaks and I still persevere, because looking good truly does make me feel better,” Dixon-Biggs shared.

“I could be depressed as anything on a particular day, but put on my glam and walk out the door and I’m ready for anything.”

The staunch beauty believer even jumped to the defense of fellow mom Keke Palmer, who was recently publicly shamed by her son’s father, Darius Jackson.

In since-deleted tweets this week, Jackson — who shares 4-month-old Leodis with Palmer — criticized the outfit she wore to Usher’s concert in Las Vegas.

Retweeting images of Palmer in a sheer, black dress, he wrote, “It’s the outfit though, you a mom.”

He followed up his harsh criticism by tweeting, “We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is.”

“This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe,” he added. “I rest my case.”

As his comments ignited rage on social media, Dixon-Biggs weighed in on the controversy with The Sun.

“No man has the right to tell a woman how she can and can’t dress,” the fashionista said. “This is Keke Palmer — she looks stunning, and would look stunning whatever she wears.”

She argued that women’s clothing “isn’t a man’s choice to make,” especially for moms.

“Just because you’re a mom — just because you’re a celeb mom — doesn’t mean you’re no longer a human being,” she said.
