Parents of babies want only the best for them. It doesn’t stop at just what we feed them, it extends to their bed linen, clothing, bath goods and what products we use to transport them around in. manduca Baby Carrier Currently pregnant with baby #4, I am a huge fan of baby carrying and realise that it is going to be an absolute lifesaver.

As every parent is aware, children go through many phases in their lives. Especially when it involves bedtime. First you transition them from bassinette to cot, maybe even your room to their own. From there they discover they can climb out of the cot and as parents we realise it is safer for them to upgrade to a bed of their own. From there they may go through a stage where they prefer your bed over theirs, this is horrible for parents and if this is your first, you are not alone. They will have many excuses as to why they are there; they want a cuddle (which of course you aren’t going to say no to), they had a bad dream, they are cold in their room or maybe even they are scared of the dark. It isn’t uncommon for young children to be frightened of the dark and…
