About

Bio

Diary of a First Child began in 2008 as a travel blog but later evolved into an account of the blogger’s first pregnancy. The blog carries stories, news and features on all different kinds of parenting, food, motherhood and product and service reviews, among others. Blogger Luschka van Onselen decided to create a place online to use as an outlet for all the information she was finding and learning during her pregnancy. Luschka says: “All of a sudden I found my head starting to spin with ideas like home birth, attachment parenting, baby-led weaning and gentle discipline as I soaked up information and knowledge I never even knew existed just months before. I felt I needed an outlet for everything I was learning, and so Diary of a First Child was born.” She lives in the Hampshire/Surrey border region. The majority of blog posts are written from personal experience and are aimed at an audience of mothers and new parents. Recent entries include: This Is The Kiss (Book Review), Glimmies Forest Fairies Review, Quick and Easy Ways to Keep Car Seats Clean, Make Your Own Gift Box #BostikBlogger, My First Story Writing Book (Book Review), February Literary Days To Celebrate and Observe.  PR opportunities include brand name and product placement, reviews, survey and scientific-based research placement, expert comment and advice and competitions. Luschka says: "I am happy to review products and cover events, especially but not exclusively, those aimed at enhancing natural parenting and living. Please be aware that we aim to be WHO compliant, and therefore will not review bottles, infant or toddler formula, pacifiers or other equipment deemed by the WHO to be potentially harmful to a breastfeeding relationship. We do not support any advertising for Nestle, or companies owned or part owned by them, including but not limited to L’Oreal and The Body Shop." Luschka can be reached by email.

    Good Housekeeping

    Good Housekeeping is published by Hearst and written for the contemporary homemaker. Articles focus on food, nutrition, fashion, beauty, relationships, home decorating, health, child care, and other consumer and social issues. Each issue delivers a unique mix of inspirational and personal stories, trusted information, and closely researched investigations and reports. Also there are tips for getting organized, and recipes for quick, healthy meals. While they don't designate a part of the magazine for green coverage they do take environmental considerations into account throughout each issue, so pitch accordingly. When sending green products be sure that they save readers time and money. Pitch recycling topics and remember that value and quality are most important to readers. Avoid sending too many luxury items as they rarely, if ever, cover luxury goods or services. When pitching products always be mindful of the staffs' deadlines. They typically work three to four months in advance. Be sure to include price, availability and other pertinent shopping details.
