This is a site for parents by a local parent, so I know exactly what parents are looking for and, and with over 2 years of experience running Mum's guide to Hitchin, as well as 18 years in Marketing, I can help you reach them.
My background in Senior Marketing roles with big brands like TUI, Nestlé, LateRooms.com and Buyagift, along with 6 years as a freelance Marketing Consultant working with local small businesses (specialising in family-focussed brands) and London-based companies, means I have a wealth of experience to advise on what the best option is for you. I can understand what you want to achieve, but also what appeals to my followers.
