Tommee Tippee DECT Digital Movement and Sound Monitor

Posted on February 22, 2011August 14, 2019 by jenny

When I was pregnant a reliable baby monitor was top of my list of items to purchase. We were recommended a certain brand as part of our nursery advice at John Lewis, purchased the monitor and have used it ever since. 11 months later and Tommee Tippee have recently launched a new Digital Movement &…

Buggysnuggle

Posted on February 22, 2011July 8, 2016 by jenny

We were offered the chance to review a buggysnuggle. I don’t know if you’ve heard of them but they are basically a universal footmuff. Now, you know I’m a pram junkie and have used both Quinny and Bugaboo footmuffs but I hadn’t purchased a footmuff for my Maclaren Quest Sport so I was looking forward…

Posted on February 20, 2011 by jenny

Pampers kindly sent us tickets to attend The Baby Show, so this morning we headed down to the Excel Centre. We had a great time and managed to purchase a snooze shade which is the only item I really went looking for. The show seemed smaller than the one held at Olympia but this was…

Operation back to work

Posted on February 17, 2011 by jenny

Today is the culmination of operation back to work. This afternoon I have a meeting with my manager to discuss my proposal for flexible working and I’m scared! A few weeks ago I prepared a document detailing how I could squeeze my full-time job into a three day week. I’ve been trying to anticipate the…

Posted on February 16, 2011October 30, 2024 by jenny

We were recently sent some Earth Friendly Baby goodies to try and we are able to offer you the chance to win five products from their range. We tried the mandarin bubblebath (which smells divine) and left Edward’s skin smooth and clean. We also used the Daily Care Cream which helped moisturise Edward’s skin. It…
