After having my two young boys, Oliver & Phoenix,  I followed a passion to write about my own learnings of raising kids and incorporating kids into the work life balance.  Whilst in the process, I vivdely recalled my childhood and my parents parenting style which was firm yet embarked upon with grace and ease; on all accounts my childhood was a carefree existence full of adventure, fun and learning.  As an adult I now know it wasn’t always ease my parents experienced, but my happy childhood did have the right balance between structure, learned play and free time. Something I aspire to do with my kids.

Together, Katrina and I have now  produced four books in order of publication; Small Fry - Inspiration for Cooking with Kids,  Mother Wisdom, Small Fry- Inspiration for being Outdoors with Kids, , Small Fry - Inspiration for Creative Paly with Kids    

After 15 years in the communications world,  and of all the career highlights I’ve had to date, writing and producing the books, without equal has been the toughest and most gratifying learning curve of my life. We wanted to create something that would work in and around our children and this certainly ticked all the boxes!

Much to my delight, Small Fry  - Inspiration for cooking with Kids  was nominated as Best Children’s Cookbook in the world last year in the Le Cordon Bleu Food and Media Awards ’07 – a global award.

My passion continues to be delighting in my boys now 8 and almost 6 years old, as well as my ongoing writing and communications projects, working with clients in Australia and New Zealand.

I’m feeling so very fortunate to be doing something I love, working with Katrina , Caro , Sue &  friends I adore, on the books as well as working with clients and products I’m also passionate about.

Our passion at Small Fry,  is focusing on adding value to the lives of parents, carers and children.

Across the series of books, our desire is to provide parents and carers with practicle ideas, activities, recipes and inspiration  for the precious time that we get to spend withour children - whether thats doing some fun and creative things in the kitchen our outdoors - or doing nothing at all!

And like any other parent, I’m  constantly working on getting the parenting balance right.
