We are currently open for business, however, we have taken the decision not to send baby gifts at this time. Given that our gifts will be delivered to a vulnerable group in the population, new born babies, we have taken the decision NOT to dispatch orders at this time. We note that more and more online retailers are suspending their operations, if non-essential, to reduce pressure on front line delivery staff and we also support this approach. If you place an order today, we will dispatch it once things settle or once the lockdown has been lifted. We thank you for your co-operation at this time.

Government Plans to Put Families First
09/05/2012Sources have revealed the Governments plans for a radical review of support for children with special needs, flexi parental leave and faster adoptions.
The plan details how new mums can opt to share their maternity leave with the baby's father.
They also aim to speed up the adoption process, allowing children to become settled into family life rather than staying with a temporary foster family. This in turn will benefit them later in life.
The flexible parental leave will enable new mums to return to work earlier if they wish and allocate some of their remaining maternity leave to the new dad.
The Government is planning a major overhaul of the system relating to those with special educational needs. A change of this type has not been seen for some 30 years. John Dickinson-Lilley welcomes these changes, saying "The current system is extraordinarily complex, leading to fraught experiences for deafblind and multi-sensory impaired children"
