Welcome to the Child magazine website – perfect for parents of children in Northamptonshire and beyond.

Child magazine was started in 2003 by two local mums who wanted to make a difference.

Now five years on, it is still owned and run by one of its founders, Theresa Donaghue, mum to three children aged 7, 10, and 13 and has a readership estimated to be over 20,000 for each issue.

www.childmag.co.uk aims to help parents in the difficult task of bringing up children – by giving you local information on where to go and what you can do with your children, as well as useful hints, tips and advice from the experts.

You can download one of the many features that have appeared in Child Magazine in recent issues, or check out the fantastic guide to children’s parties in the area.

If you are looking for a toddler group to take your little one along to you can check out the Toddler Directory and there is the chance to try your luck – and enter a competition!

So if you like what you see – tell your friends, and if you don’t – tell us, and why!

Child Magazine has become a respected local magazine enjoyed by thousands of families every issue – and we hope the website will reach even more people.

So we hope you find the childmag website as useful as the magazine, and please send us your thoughts, pictures and letters.

Theresa & the team
