About Just the Facts, Kid

O

ur kids are getting bigger–and so are yours.

Thanks to the success of our pregnancy and parenting site (JustTheFactsBaby.com), we decided to launch a second site that goes beyond diapers and baby food. JustTheFactsKid.com delivers the same quality advice–just geared to an older crowd of kids.

We know all moms are strapped for time, so our modus operandi is to deliver fast, reliable information on the latest topics for toddlers to tweens (with a little help from our trusted panel of experts). We also rate the coolest products for your family, provide healthy, easy-to-make recipes, and help you navigate the globe to find the most family-friendly destinations.

If you have a cool product, a great story idea, or just want to let us know about something cool for kids, please drop us a line at info@justthefactskid.com

The Moms Behind the Facts

In her pre-baby life, Nancy was the editor-in-chief of Oxygen and Glow magazines. In addition to her journalism background and degree from Ryerson University, she has a passion for health, fitness and nutrition. Nancy holds a Bachelor of Science from the University of Calgary and is a former personal trainer and group fitness program director.

The work-at-home mom now balances parenting her sons Bode and Beckett and daughter Stella with managing JustTheFactsBaby.com and freelance writing. Her clients include: More (in which she is the contributing fitness editor), Canadian Family, Pregnancy, Fit Pregnancy, and various others. She’s super excited about her latest venture and can’t wait to hear your thoughts on JustTheFactsKid.com.

 

 

 

Sydney Loney, Publisher & Co-founder

Sydney Loney co-founder Just the Facts, Kid

Sydney thought she knew about multi-tasking as the former managing editor of Glow magazine. She knew nothing. Thanks to her son Charlie and daughter Maggie, she can now bake muffins, edit copy, do a load of whites and interpretive dance to Raffi–all at the same time. (And getting a handful of health and beauty editors to meet their deadlines is nothing compared to getting a four-year-old to junior kindergarten before the bell rings.)

That said, Sydney is still able to put her degree in journalism to good use as a freelance writer and editor. In addition to JustTheFactsBaby.com, her work has appeared in Today’s Parent, Canadian Family, Chatelaine, More, Pregnancy and The Globe and Mail.
