She may not seem like the average PTA mom, but Snooki swears that she is very maternal!

The Jersey Shore star, who is pregnant with her first child with Jionni LaValle, reveals how and why she is going to be a great mom in V’s Americana issue – and Breaking Celebrity News has the details.

"I can't wait to meet my kid!" she exclaims. "Everyone will be surprised to see a different side of me. I'm loving, caring, sensitive, protective and very maternal, no matter what people might think."

The pint-sized 24-year-old, who already has her name attached to everything from tanning lotion and nail polish to handbags, may also lend her brand to baby products.

“My ideas are endless,” she says. “Who wouldn’t want a leopard-print rattle or a cheetah-print bib?”

Meanwhile, as Breaking Celebrity News previously reported, Snooki was spotted shopping for pink baby toys over the weekend with her costar and pal Jenni "JWoww" Farley.
