If you’re planning a visit or move to UK then discover a mixture of posts on British lifestyle and kid-related topics. This is not a typical guide but views and even how-to’s – many which I’ve learned from personal experience – which aim to be super useful and helpful for an expat family with kids in Britain.
As a dual national – US and UK – I wanted to share my insider’s view on British life. I’m both a Mum and a Mom who’s lived and worked in Britain, as well as the US and abroad, which has often given me a unique perspective. My children were born in London. Do you want to find out about maternity hospitals in London? Applying for private schools in London is completely different from the admission process somewhere like New York City. And be careful how you say it if you’re an American Mom before you ask the hairdresser to trim your child’s bangs! Oh, I’ll never forget their first haircuts in London. My kids first loved wearing onesies and then later they kept warm like rockstars with their Barbours in the countryside. And one of their favourite desserts is Eton Mess !
In the early days of this blog you’ll find a whole mish mash of posts! One of my most popular is still about whether you call your mother Mom, Mum or Ma?
