Career woman Clare Minall launched Mudpie Fridays to share what she and her sons, Monkey and Kipper (their stage names), get up to as she balances work, motherhood and all the adventures that come with it. Clare shares fun ideas for families that can be pulled together quickly with minimal planning and fuss – statue hunting, park visits, quick trips across the UK, and – yes – making mudpies in the garden. Weekly newsletter round-ups keep the adventure going with updates on what the family are up to, and for those mums that need some me time there’s Clare’s ‘Mum Life’ content.

Sarah Anguish – that’s ‘Boo’, to you – blogs about her family life with children ‘Roo’, 11, the chatterbox and dancing queen; ‘Tigger’, 7, the fussy eater; and ‘Piglet’, 2, the wild child of the family. Sarah covers lifestyle topics including home décor and travel alongside parenting posts including product reviews, family days out and advice for other parents. Sarah spent time in the NHS before becoming a super work at home mum/blogger hybrid.
5. Toby & Roo
Here to share the ‘wins and woes of parenting’ is Harriet Shearsmith, mum to boys Tobias and Reuben and daughter Edith. Feminism and equality issues are a focus of the blog alongside the chronicling of family time – Harriet even advises mothers-to-be on picking the right nursing bra and breastfeeding. The theme of support runs throughout the blog, with a recent post bigging-up inspirational women to follow on Instagram. She takes this further with women crush Wednesday, where she champions awesome women that everyone should be aware of.
‘Parenting doesn’t stop for rain’, says Rainy Day Mum Cerys Parker, who emphasises the importance of being creative and making the most of time indoors when it’s wet outside (and in the UK, it’s wet outside quite a lot…). Daily family goals is what sets this blog apart – parenting doesn’t stop for rain, and neither does fun with the family, or self-improvement through learning and creating.
7. BritMums
‘Leading the conversation’ in the UK blogging scene is BritMums – a collection of lifestyle bloggers and influencers creating parenting content as well as travel, politics and style. More than 9,000 ‘social influencers’ make up this network, which produces the blog and an online magazine, as well as an annual awards programme and events where bloggers can get together in the UK and abroad. A big blogging family, BritMums aims to take care of their community and the brands they work with.
8. Emmy’s Mummy – and Harry’s too!
Essex-based Clare (‘Emmy’s Mummy’) shares her ‘misadventures and adventures’ with husband Paul, daughter Emmy and son Harry as well as making time for general rambling (in the General Rambling section, naturally) and useful tips for parents of all ages. Clare comes from a background in day and school nurseries, and shares her expertise from this time, which is something her readers can benefit from alongside Emmy and Harry.
Say Bonjour to Cécile Blaireau, who came to the UK in 2008 as a language assistant and stayed to become a teacher, and then a mother… and now a blogger! Cécile makes room for style and giveaways, and also shares the ‘real side’ of being a modern parent instead of just focusing on being ‘a super maman’, which makes The Frenchie Mummy a relatable read for those who’re looking for more than a primed and pristine show of motherhood, in any location around the world.
*Parent blogging power couple alert*, as we meet Twin Mummy Emily Higgins, who’s married to DIY Daddy blogger Nige.

The blog promotes a healthy life to its readers, with fitness and environmentally-aware content posted alongside travel and craft ideas. The following for Twin Mummy and Daddy on social media is pretty healthy, too…
