Our working customers have told us that they love this recent US-style consultancy: Babyplanners. An all-embracing service, a babyplanner is someone who takes care of everything for you – from choosing the smartest pushchair or coolest baby carrier to finding the best pregnancy yoga or birth prep classes. And you don’t even have to leave your desk or sofa. There are several other similar services like this (Babylist for one) but Babyplanners is set apart from the competiton for one simple reason: they don’t carry stock and so when they recommend a product it’s because they really mean it, rather than because they’ve got 50 to shift. This seems pretty key to me! Have you read about them? Used their service?

We love a good blog – especially one which gives you advance warnings of sales, juicy bits of gossip, sneak previews of lovely collections… have a look at knickersblog – there are even tips on how to become a lingerie designer (our honest advice? make cakes instead.)
