Hello and Welcome to the Mellow Mummy blog.I'm Emma, the Mellow Mummy! I'm Mum to two girls. A newborn bundle of loveliness, Holly (born may 2012) preschooler Lara (born in June 2009) and I'm trying to approach motherhood in a relaxed, mellow way..
When I'm not on maternity leave, I am a software geek – I work for a huuuuuge US company that nobody has ever heard of, writing thrilling software for the financial services industry. Weirdly enough, I love it.
I'm also known as the Jumbly Mummy. “Jumbly” was a term of endearment used by an ex-boyfriend of mine. I think the term was supposed to mean that I'm smiley and cheerful rather than that my head is green and my hands are blue and I went to sea in a sieve (see Edward Lear)! Anyway, the term stuck and now I like to think of jumbliness as being a merry embodiment of my mellow approach to life – I take life as it comes!
I started my blog as a way of passing on my tips for how to remain mellow during motherhood and for sharing my views on some of the baby products I've tried. Becoming a parent can be a very expensive business and I know its helpful to get recommendations from others before splashing out on those expensive baby bits.
I hope you enjoy reading my blog; I look forward to receiving your comments and feedback.
