What are the sexes and ages of your children?
I have 3 boys and a girl. Aged nearly 6, just turned 4 and 18 month old twins (a boy and a girl.)
What got you into parent blogging?
My husband. He said it would be easy!
What is your top parenting tip to share with our readers? Can be on any topic for little ones :-) (under 8s)
Enjoy it! It doesn’t matter whether everything is perfect or what style of parenting you choose. As long as you think about things, you’ll work out your problems. Enjoying time with your kids is the most important thing. Soon they won’t be kids any more.
Can you share a parenting advice post with us from your blog too; your favourite one? Why do you like this post? Please include the link for us.

Who’s your favourite parent blogger at the moment and why? Please include a link to their blog home page.
There are so many. I wish I had more time to spend reading everyone else’s blogs.
I really like http://incredibleinfant.com. She offers sensible yet amusing advice for mothers of young babies.

Helen is a mum to two, social media consultant, and website editor; and this site is (we think) the only Social Enterprise parenting magazine! Since giving up being a business analyst when juggling travel, work and kids proved too complicated, she founded KiddyCharts so she could be with her kids, and use those grey cells at the same time. KiddyCharts has reach of over 1.1million across social and the site. The blog works with big family brands (including travel) to help promote their services, as well as offering free resources to parents of kids under 10. It gives 51%+ profits to Reverence for Life, who fund a number of important initiatives in Africa, including bringing running water and basic equipment to a school in Tanzania. Helen has worked as a digital marketing consultant (IDM qualified) with various organisations, including Channel Mum, Truprint, Talk to Mums, and Micro Scooters. She loves to be creative in the brand campaigns she works on. Get in touch TODAY!
