What we do

The Parent Zone is here to make life easier for parents. We do this by developing information for parents to help them make informed choices, and by finding out from them what they need, so that we can work together with companies to provide it. We’re able to engage and empower parents because we understand them and we listen to them.

Parenting in the digital age

Lots of things never change about parenting - apart from the advice (should you let them sleep in your bed or not? When to wean? How to potty train?) - but on the whole, common sense and trusting your instincts works pretty damned well. But that’s before you’re faced with the curve balls. Those things you can’t possibly know about until someone tells you. Like what do 13 year old boys spend all day on an iPad doing? What is the fascination with Facebook and should you worry? This short film gives you a bit of an insight into the mysteries of children’s digital worlds. There is lots more information on this site if you want to dig deeper.
