I'm Gillian, a world-traveller turned natural parent. I believe in primal parenting; breastfeeding, baby wearing, cosleeping, cloth diapering, elimination communication, vegetarianism and all things natural. I have very strong parenting views.

Also: sushi and sweet white wine, skinny jeans and black tshirts, torrents and sugar.My sustainable accessories company Pip Robins keeps me busy in the evenings.
