Welcome to the first post of Free Range Parenting. Here you'll find tales of my parenting adventures, experiments, triumphs and failures.
The term 'free range' kids appeared in our household as an alternative to my darling hubby referring to our beautiful, well mannered, always clean and sweet smelling and oh so compliant cherubs as....feral! Like all new parents we went into this parenting lark completely blind but we are VEry eager to learn and I'll be sharing my findings with you!
Currently our household consists or Miss M, who at 2 1/2 starts every sentence with a W word, and Master L who at 5 months just started rolling...and shouting.
Our children are very fortunate in that they have lots of grandparents in their lives all of whom enjoy taking care of them. So in a way we're raising them together, great for the babes but sometimes hard for me, as their mother, to hand them over. I'm sure I'll have a lot to say about that here.
I also have a 'middle child'...my business, a modern cloth nappy company called Nudey!Rudey! It takes quite a bit of juggling to meet the needs of ALL my children (including my mother in law's youngest)

- Here at Nudey!Rudey! we are strong supporters of buying New Zealand made. We wanted to design and manufacture products of the highest quality, value and effectiveness right here in New Zealand, and so Nudey!Rudey! was born. We strive to adhere to the triple bottom line accountancy principles by giving equal importance to environmental, social and financial goals. For us this means designing and manufacturing superior products that improve the quality of people's lives and offer solutions to our customers that lesson our impact on the Earth. Our social goals are met, in part, by donating 10% of ALL our profit to charity. They are further met by treating ourselves, as employees, and our children, as beneficiaries of our efforts, with kindness and respect. We are a family business, with our children at the centre of all our activities. This is an exciting way to do business but it's not without its challenges!
