ME
Fear not! I can help. That’s what Bambino Goodies is for. We’ve been taking the legwork out of tracking down cool buys for children and their families for over seventeen years and have tempted hundreds of thousands of people with our finds, as well as providing oodles of inspiration. I’m Lucy, mama to Alfie and Kitty, and I’m passionate about family living, design, style and showing support to independent retailers, designers and brands. Bambino Goodies connects a loyal and ever-growing band of followers with well-designed, stylish, practical, playful, and often ethical, buys as well highlighting fun things to do, places to go, things to make and inspiring family living ideas.
I live happily in the East Sussex countryside, near lovely Lewes, with my husband, Harry, son Alfie (17), daughter Kitty (14) and mischievous Greek rescue pointerdor Cosmo. My background is in glossy magazines, first entertainment and interiors, then thirteen years in fashion and beauty as a staffer on Marie Claire. I started coolhunting and writing for Bambino Goodies as a sideline while pregnant, seventeen years ago and never left. A self-confessed word nerd and freelance sub-editor by trade, I’m well versed in using language to sell and market and can spot a misplaced apostrophe from 100 paces. Evelyn Waugh novels, all things midcentury, insect jewellery, sequin kaftans, cocktails by the sea, Wes Anderson films and friends all make me smile.
