Let's face it, in the first month or so after having a baby just having a shower is a luxury. So tell me how I am going to keep roots fresh, haircut trimmed, hands and feet smooth and polished? Lucie Porcher of Mum & Babe Salon has found the answer. At Mum & Babe Salon children are welcome. And not only are they welcome, the staff at the salon will look after your little ones while you look after yourself.

It’s autumn and for many people that is the time of year for many family traditions. One tradition that I know Americans and French share is Fall apple picking. What a great way to spend a crisp fall afternoon as a family. And the Gally Farm, just 20 minutes from Paris, has a number of [...]
Back to school style shouldn’t have to be all mary-janes and bows . You wouldn’t dare send your child off to the first day of her new hip Montessori school looking overly styled. Instead, pull off a bobo style that looks effortlessly chic and cool.
