What can YOU do for Syria? Please read.
I’m going to make this short and sweet, and I’m not going to go into the politics of Syria.
There are people there, who need help. Urgently. So whether you agree or disagree on the politics, please do something for the people there who need your donations.
There is a charity called Hand in hand for Syria, and they are organising “The Big Aid Drop for Syria” which is happening TOMORROW (31st August) across the UK.… Read more
Are pets worth it?
When I was growing up we were banned from having pets, the excuse from my parents was that five children was enough to be dealing with. I always used to think this was unfair, unreasonable and just plain untrue. Then I joined the world of adulthood and got my own pets.… Read more
Baby book to make you smile
As I have mentioned before, I was lucky enough to go to BritMums Live back in June, and whilst I was there I was introduced to Parragon Books.

Myth-busting about childminding
A few months ago I decided to not return to my full-time job as an account director in a digital marketing agency in London. Instead I opted to work as a childminder, looking after our two girls and an additional two children of similar ages.

For two whole weeks I had around 2 hours a day of total peace and quiet to read blogs, comment on them and write my own blog posts.… Read more
