Ecommerce Editor

Heidi is a lifestyle journalist with almost 20 years of experience. Over the years, she has written for the Daily Mail, The Guardian, and The Telegraph, and contributed to a wide range of magazines and websites including Red, Psychologies, and Stylist. Heidi spent six years freelancing for Mother & Baby magazine, where she created consumer features for the shopping pages and produced buying guides and gift guides. She wrote a popular column for AOL’s Parentdish and one instalment - about her dread of school sports days - ended up being the text in a GCSE English exam paper. Heidi's opinions have sparked lively debates everywhere from ITV’s This Morning – she argued that you should never tell off someone else’s child – to BBC Radio 4’s Woman’s Hour, where she defended the case for Harper Beckham having dummy in a discussion with Jane Garvey. Her articles have also been discussed on Loose Women and shared by Richard Branson. Heidi lives on the North Coast of Ireland with her husband and their three children, plus an excessively fluffy cat and an irrepressibly energetic dog. She loves beach walks, espresso martinis, and being left in peace with a good book.
