About Me


A Gentle Parenting Blog is born!

Hello there! I’m Lucy. I’m a Yorkshire mummy with a goal to make gentle parenting accessible for everyone! I have two little girls (8 and 4) and a few years back, I realised traditional methods didn’t sit right with me:

  • I wanted to treat my girls with the same respect as I would give an adult
  • I wanted to boost their confidence rather than shake it
  • I wanted to create an environment where they would thrive and become wonderful human beings

But if you’re anything like me, you probably saw the phrase “gentle parenting” and rolled your eyes. I used to think it was lazy parenting – an excuse to let your kids do whatever they want…

As a UK-based Gentle Parenting blogger, I aim to write practical, down-to-earth advice on what gentle parenting looks like in everyday life. So if you’re looking for a kind, fair, successful approach to parenting, this gentle parenting blog is for you!
