Mother’s Day – Why My Mum Is Great

Saturday March 6th, 2010 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

It’s almost Mother’s Day, and I thought I’d do a post about why my mum is pretty fab.
My parents are both pretty young (my Dad says he was a child bride!) and I have always got on well with them both. I love my mum to bits, and to be honest, although she doesn’t let [...]

Yesterday was SnugBaby’s 2nd birthday, and what a fabulous two years it has been! It hasn’t always been easy, but it’s always been worth it, especially when I hear how pleased customers are with the products and the service.

My Life as a School Mummy

Monday February 1st, 2010 in Uncategorized | 1 Comment »

I didn’t realise how much my life would change when SnugBoy#1 started school.
I kind of thought it would mean I was less busy – looking after one is easier than two, right? What I didn’t bank on was his ever-expanding social life. He has parties to go to every other week. And he takes tennis [...]

Reflection

Sunday January 17th, 2010 in Uncategorized | 5 Comments »

I went out for a rare date with SnugMan last night. It was lovely, although, as usual, it wasn’t long before the conversation turned to work. We talked about what we hope to do in the future, how things are going at the moment, and also about how far SnugBaby (and me personally) have come [...]

Free Chocolates to Cheer You Up

Friday January 15th, 2010 in Uncategorized | No Comments »

Apparently Monday 18th January is the most depressing day of the year. I guess it comes from post-Christmas, pre-payday blues, having given up on New Year’s resolutions, and the Christmas chocolate supply running low.
Here at SnugBaby, we don’t like to think of anyone being unhappy, so, to cheer you up, we are offering a free [...]

Benefits of Babywearing

Monday January 11th, 2010 in Uncategorized | 7 Comments »

When I talked to a friend the other day about babywearing – she was completely confused as to what I meant. She thought perhaps I was suggesting that she use her little darling as a hat.
However, when renowned paediatrician, Dr William Sears invented the term babywearing in the 1980s, I’m fairly sure he meant it [...]

“Snow is Falling, All Around Us,…”

…”Children playing, having fun”

Mine certainly are, seeing as they have extended Christmas holidays!
It does look pretty, this blanket of white currently covering the UK, even if it is a litle inconvenient. As my good old dad said today, “isn’t it strange how the schools are all shut, yet the pubs and shops and soft play [...]
