Hi, I’m Chiswick Mum
-
I'm passionate about local life and making the most of living here, and of this great city that we live in.
London is such a great place to be a parent - and here in the leafy edge of the big smoke I feel really blessed to spend my days living, loving and parenting.
I live with my wonderful seven-year-old Chiswick Boy, and his dad Chiswick Daddy. Together we have adventures out and about, peppered with crafting and pyjamas days.
I don't get it right all the time. I work outside the home four days a week and the first thing to get ditched is generally the housework.
