Fair Cape invited a few bloggers to experience how they are effectively running their farm with solar energy during day time hours. I loved driving to the farm, there’s something about driving up a dirt road with the the barn almost rising in front of you that makes one feel part of an almost cinematic experience. The farm is situated in Cape Farms, just outside of Durbanville. It is a fresh, tranquil space. We spent the first few minutes socializing…
When preparing for a new baby one of the biggest concerns for any mom is how they will feed their new little baby. Breastfeeding comes naturally to some and not so naturally to others. We struggle with so many issues and sometimes it is easier to give your baby milk in a bottle. Some moms have to return to work a few months after having a new baby and are then stressed out about building a ‘stash’ to keep baby…

Purity & Elizabeth Anne is a household name for us and many other people I know. We first used the range 7 years ago when Jayme was a baby, we were gifted many of the products for my baby shower. When Alex was born we used the baby petroleum jelly from Purity & Elizabeth Anne because the smell and feel of it was the best out of all of the ones we tried. We never had any issues with nappy…
I can’t contain my excitement to have made this list among some of the elite Parenting Bloggers SA has to offer. These moms and dads are like superheroes to me and I’ve been following most of them for a very long time. You can view the list here.

Have you ever heard of the 4th trimester? It is the first 3 months after a baby is born. The period where the baby adjusts to life outside the womb as described by Dr Harvey Karp. It can be a rough period for both Mom & Baby. One of the things that can help a lot in the 4th trimester is Baby wearing. What exactly is baby wearing? According to babywearing.co.za, it is the practice of wearing or carrying a baby in…
Alex is now 7 months old and about a month into baby lead weaning and eating all kinds of solid foods. It makes a huge mess, I had to mentally prep for this stage. Luckily I’ve been through it once so I sort of knew what to expect but for new moms, be ready for ALOT of mess. On the floor, the chair, clothing – yours and baby’s basically any surface is fair game. The first item that is making…
I have always been someone that goes for convenience and even more so now being a mom of two. I don’t know how others do it but I never seem to have enough hours in the day. Alex started eating solids about a month ago with me cooking up some veggies for her, until one day I got an amazing delivery from Squish. It has changed my life, and saved me so much time on more occasions than I care…
This product has impressed me so much over the past few weeks, Jaymes hair, skin and my nose have been doing a happy dance in unison. Why my nose? Because I have never smelled a product so fresh, light and just beautiful. I am generally sensitive to smells and I am easily triggered into a migraine but none of the child farm products have caused any issues. The smell is so good that I’ve gone as far as leaving the…
