Online Resource for Parents

Little Legends has been given a great review on page 67 of issue 170 Webuser Magazine :)

Little Legends is an online resource for parents. It’s designed to help them discover resources for children around the country – from finding childcare and nurseries to learning about days out and family-friendly restaurants.

In addition to a great clean look, the site benefits from an advanced search facility using Google Maps, making it easy to home in on local events and services. Vicky Wood and her brother Piers have done an excellent job of putting together a truly valuable website. Not only are there pages themselves incredibly useful, but there are numerous links to other blogs and sites that could be of interest to parents.

Whether you’re looking for a babysitter or a day out Little Legends can point you in the right direction.

What does the future hold for Little Legends?

Little Legends has been reviewed over at Killer Start Ups. You can vote to decide whether or not we make it big, just survive or totally bomb!

They think it might be a killer because:

A site like this will be an awesome tool for parents living in England, what a great resource to find out information about where to take your kids, and what is more research worthy than the safety of your children?

What do you think?

Littlelegends: Online help for stressed-out mums

The following article about Little Legends appeared in the Wandsworth Borough news today:

A Wandsworth mother sick of struggling to find child-friendly locatins has set up a networking website for parents faced with a similar predicament.

Mum of three, Vicky Wood, 33, moved house two years ago and was frustrated by the difficulty of locating the best places in the borough for parents with kids in tow.

With the help of her brother, technical whizz Piers Young, she took the matter into her own hands and set up an online network for parents.

The site, called Littlelegends.biz contains profiles of more than 35,000 child-friendly services, restaurants, parks, shops, hotels , clubs and major attractions all over the UK.

Parents can now search by postcode to find the most childfriendly places in their area.

Mrs Wood, a lawyer with a six week old baby, a four year old and a five year old, said:

“We’ve had some really positive feedback.

“The social networking thing is fairly new but I think people find it really useful to be able to search for places by postcode, whether it’s a cafe you can take buggies into or a hairdresser that cuts children’s hair”.

The fast growing membership base of parents are encouraged to add their own places, comments and ratings.
