Advice and products today’s parents can trust

‘I’m honoured to be asked to be a judge with leading experts in the parenting industry for one of my favourite publications,’ said Sarah. ‘I reguarly write parenting advice for Prima Baby and know parents can trust the information and recommendations it offers.

I was thrilled earlier this year when Prima Baby made my book Happy Baby, Happy Family: Learning to trust yourself and enjoy your baby the book of the month. I’m excited to have the opportunity to test out the products and find out more about the innovators who are making babies and families happier with their businesses.’
